La Plata Police Officer Receives Award
STOLEN PROPERTY RECOVERED IN GIFFORD
ROBERTS
SALSBERRY
Warrants were executed by Judge Phillip Prewitt for the arrest of 21-year-old Lynette Roberts of La Plata, Mo. and 22-year-old Frank Salsberry of Novinger, Mo. Both have been charged in relation to thousands of dollars worth of stolen property being hidden in South Gifford. Roberts has been charged with receiving stolen property, a class C felony. She remains in the Adair County Jail on a $25,000 cash only bond. Salsberry has been charged with possession of a controlled substance- methamphetamine. He is being held in the Macon County Jail on a $50,000 cash only bond. More charges are pending according to Macon County Sheriff’s Deputy Tyler Souther. According to the sheriff’s office of Macon County several burglaries have been unsolved in Macon and Adair County and the recovery of these stolen products are a result of these crimes. The stolen goods were found stuffed in a old school bus on the property in Gifford and some was found inside a single wide mobile home on the same property. The items ranged from tools, hunting gear, power tools and even generators. Now it’s a matter of figuring out who the rightful owners are. “There were several burglaries in the southwest part of Adair County,” said Adair County Sheriff Robert Hardwick. “We’ve contacted these owners of the property to have them come down and look. We’ve got, it’s probably a 54- to 60-passenger school bus that was full of property and stolen property and things of this nature so we’re going to have them come here to identify it as it’s all laid out in the open” “We’ve got some people on their way now to look this stuff over,” said Macon County Sheriff Robert Dawson. “A lot of it is consistent with things we have reported stolen, but it’s hard to get a perfect ID on it without the owners looking at it.”.
Lisa Lene, Red Cross Disaster Services Coordinator presents La Plata Police Department Officer Maurice Crowe the Public Safety Hero Award.
The North Central Chapter of the Red Cross honored and praised local hereos for going above and beyond the call of duty with a banquet held on Friday, March 23, 2012 in Kirksville. Among one of the heros honored was Maurice Crowe, La Plata Police Officer, who received the Public Safety Hero Award. Other recipients of each award were as follows: Public Safety Hero: Detectives Jeremy Cordray, Officer Maurice Crowe and Detective Justin Jones Good Samaritan Hero: Michael Cantril and Doyle Dover Military Hero: SFC Bradley Young Family Hero: Jason and Sarah Rouse, as well as Carol Stanley King Foundation Education Hero: Jack Magruder Extraordinary Personal Action: David Kinney, Mark Munn and Joe Young
Volunteer of the Year: John Wallace Each of the award recipients were nominated by community members and had portions of their nominations read as they were presented their award. For the Public Safety Hero award, Cordray and Jones were recognized for their law enforcement efforts throughout the year, including being fired at during a felony arrest. Crowe is one of two full-time police officers for La Plata, and is known “for doing the right thing and taking care of his community.” Cantril was honored for his consistent volunteerism and “caring, thoughtful and compassionate” nature. Dover has helped at least a dozen cancer patients as they undergo treatment in Houston, Texas. Young was honored as the region’s National Guard recruiter and as a champion of veterans’ issues.

The Rouses were honored for their care of their special needs twins, who are in need of specific medical attention including regular trips to New York City. Stanley was recognized for her caring for family friends in need, including opening her home to a victim of an abusive relationship. Magruder was awarded the education honor for his decades of service to the Kirksville community. Kinney, Munn and Young were all honored for taking actions to help save fellow employee’s life Larry Roberts during a heart attack at Kraft Foods. Valkenaar described Wallace, the Volunteer of the Year, as “a good friend and he’s a good volunteer.” True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost’ -Arthur Ashe, quoted by Red Cross.

neighbor had sold my bull through the sale barn. The reason he did that was because he said my cattle had caused damage to his soy beans.”Primmer turned to the University of Missouri Extension (UME) office for help. Joe Koenen, an agriculture business specialist, performed a crop inspection to assess the damages to the crops .Koenen also informed the neighbor that by not notifying the owner of a trespassing animal he was in violation of the Missouri fence law. The fence laws in Missouri were established in 1808. Until 1963 each county abided by the same law, the General Law.

Now counties can vote to adopt the Optional Law. Primmer’s farm is located in a General Law county. So Primmer was able to receive damages for the cost of his bull. If Primmer lived in any of the counties surrounding Adair, his neighbor would have only been obligated to pay half of the cost to repair the fence. Many subtle differences exist between the laws. Koenen encourages all citizens to research their county law. “Education is key,” Koenen said. “If it’s going to be an unbiased vote for or against [the Optional Law], then you need an education process.”

COMMENTARY COMMENT
GIRL SCOUTS HELP ANIMAL SHELTER
Blonde But Blunt BY BECKY JEFFCOAT EDITOR/PUBLISHER lpnews@marktwain.net
Well Easter has came and gone one more time. The Easter Bunny has hopped through Northeast Missouri with several Easter Egg Hunts and community events as well as those Sunday morning services at church and family gatherings and meals. It seems like Christmas was only a few weeks ago. So... life and time move on. With Easter, comes spring and the changing of the attire. I sit and ponder about the kids and even adults in their shorts, remembering the shorts we wore when I was younger, down to the knees. Fashion changes and sometimes in not such a good way. I’m not much of a shopper, but I do enjoy going to the mall with my friends and sitting on the bench while they shop. I love people watching. From the kids in black or goths, to the kids that aren’t cultural or have a place in the world that so badly want one. I watch people walk by with their children, strollers, the harnesses (we tried one of those once with Sammie when she was about 3, by the time we turned around, she was gone, slipped outta that thing slicker than snot, needless to say we put it back on the shelf), the people who walk by in groups, young and old and the teenagers, and all I can ask is .... “do you really think their parents let them outta the house like that?” Oh my goodness, the assorted colors, the bold and bright, the flesh showing and even the shoes, oh wow, the shoes. Have you seen some of the shoes they are buying these days? LOL, they are so hilarious. Nothing I would ever even think of buying, but with time and age, comes fashion changes and “being in style”, so I guess I’ll just stay dull, ‘cause I’m not wearing those things.
JEFFCOAT The kids in this area are still some of the most clean cut and average looking teenagers. We, as parents, have to let them be themselves after a while even though we hate letting go and seeing them grow up. We sometimes force certain styles and buy apparel that we want to see them in and so what happens when we send them to the store shopping with their friends? WoW, rebel, there’s a word. But all in all, they have to be them, not our babies anymore. Oh, they will always be our babies, but only in our hearts. These pants with the holes that I used to wear as a kid, because we didn’t just go out and buy a pair, we patched them, over $100 for a pair of jeans with holes. That’s funny, because I told my kids I could make holes in their jeans for free and save money, all I got was a “Mom, be real”. I was, anyway I thought I was. We try to keep up with the trends of our children and the new generations, but sometimes we or at least I, just can’t grasp the hype of it all. Buying those Levi’s and Carhartt’s at the local farm store is fine with me, so I guess I’ll just stay dull and boring, old and out of style, but fun and happy and in many cases, warmer. LOL I hope your Easter was spent with family and friends and you found some time to relax and enjoy the weekend. Keep It Kool, Bec

They pick up gently used and new shoes year round from shoe drives. Once collected, The Shoeman gives a second life to the shoes, selling them to exporters, providing affordable shoes in the developing world. The money from the sale of the shoes is used to purchase well drilling rigs, water purification systems, and other supplies to bring clean, fresh water to those in need.

Water Projects has sent four water drilling rigs to Kenya and water purifications system teams to Haiti. Even before the devastating earthquake, 40% of Haiti’s people did not have access to clean water. Contaminated ground water is the leading cause of infant mortality, and deadly hepatitis. Cholera and dysentery take many adult lives. In Kenya’s dry lands girls must often forgo school to instead walk miles and miles each day to collect dirty, unsafe water for their families and live stock. By donating your shoes, you save the landfill, and you save lives. It is as simple as that! To participate, give your shoes the boot by donating your gently used and new shoes, tied or rubberbanded into pairs and drop them off at Hamilton Street Baptist Church from April 22 – May 13, M-F from 8-12, 1-5.
