Brandon  organizes  war  on  heroin Catching  dealers  takes  time,  money By  LEE  J.  KAHRS Brandon  Reporter BRANDON  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Drug  dealers  are  people,  too.  That  is  a  cold,  hard  fact  of  law  enforcement  that  is  frustrating  many  Brandon  residents  as  known  drug  dealers  continue  to  operate  lo-­ cally.

With  the  Brandon  Cares  commu-­ nity  group  gaining  momentum  in  the  ORFDO ÂżJKW DJDLQVW KHURLQ DQG RSLDWH abuse,  Brandon  residents  are  learn-­ ing  more  about  addiction  and  treat-­ ment  challenges.  But  they  also  ques-­ tion  why,  if  local  police  know  who  is  dealing  heroin  in  Brandon,  more  arrests  arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  made  to  combat  the  problem.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  called  the  Bill  of  Rights.  Drug  dealers  are,  usually,  Ameri-­ can  citizens  who  are  afforded  the  same  rights  as  the  rest  of  us.  Without  things  like  probable  cause,  corrobo-­ ration  or  a  proper  search  warrant,  the  police  canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  just  barge  into  the  home  of  a  suspected  drug  dealer  any  more  than  they  can  the  home  of  a  select-­ board  member,  shop  keeper  or  the  local  newspaper  editor.  Especially  if  they  want  to  bring  more  serious  charges  that  will  ensure  prison  time  and  remove  the  dealer  from  the  com-­ munity.

The  Brandon  Reporter  sat  down Â

with  Brandon  Police  Chief  Chris  Brickell  to  discuss  the  challenges  facing  local  law  enforcement  in  the  midst  of  the  war  on  opiate  and  heroin  addiction  in  Vermont,  and  in  Bran-­ don.  DOUBLE-­EDGED  SWORD With  Brandon  Town  Clerk  Sue  Gage  and  others,  Brickell  was  one  of  the  founding  organizers  of  Brandon  Cares.  The  goal  is  to  engage  law  en-­ IRUFHPHQW VFKRRO RI¿FLDOV WD[SD\-­ ers,  social  workers,  parents,  kids,  clergy  and  medical  professionals  in  the  cause  to  help  local  opiate  addicts  get  treatment  and  to  draw  attention  to  the  issue.

Many  Brandon  residents  who  at-­ tend  Brandon  Cares  meetings  have  said  they  want  to  see  more  law  en-­ forcement  measures  against  local  dealers.  But  Brickell  said  that  while  police  can  go  into  a  suspected  deal-­ HUÂśV KRPH DQG ÂżQG GUXJV ZLWKRXW D search  warrant  they  will  only  come  away  with  a  possession  charge.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  the  intent  to  distribute  the  drugs  that  carries  the  heftier  sentence,  especial-­ ly  if  there  is  a  large  quantity.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  would  be  a  waste  because  the  only  charge  would  be  a  possible  pos-­ session  charge,â&#x20AC;?  Brickell  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;You  want  it  to  be  a  charge  serious  enough  that  it  takes  that  dealer  out  of  the  community  and  puts  them  away  for  a  long  time.â&#x20AC;?

Brickell  said  it  is  a  frustrating  situ-­ ation  facing  making  local  police  de-­

partments  with  limited  budgets  and  a  community  to  protect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  double-­edged  sword  be-­ cause  youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  letting  ongoing  activ-­ ity  occur  in  your  community  that  is  detrimental  to  the  community,â&#x20AC;?  he  said,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;with  the  hopes  of  having  out-­ side  partners  have  a  greater  impact  to  get  more  serious  charges.  The  more  people  you  can  tie  into  the  case,  the  greater  the  impact  you  can  have  on  the  community  you  are  trying  to  pro-­ tect.â&#x20AC;?

In  order  to  time  an  arrest  with  the  known  delivery  of  a  fresh  batch  of  heroin  packaged  for  distribution  to  local  addicts,  the  police  need  reliable  information  that  takes  time  to  gather  and  many  hours  to  build  the  case,  KRXUV WKDW WDNH DQ RIÂżFHU DZD\ IURP patrolling  the  rest  of  the  town. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Targeting  a  drug  dealer  involves  a  number  of  facets,â&#x20AC;?  Brickell  said,  in-­ cluding  budget/overtime;Íž  personnel;Íž  the  value  of  informants  (credibility,  number,  cooperation  and  reliability);Íž  partnering  agencies  (Vermont  State  Police  Drug  Task  force,  FBI);Íž  and  prosecution. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  hard  to  get  people  to  un-­ derstand  the  different  levels  of  in-­ formants  and  the  different  levels Â

ADDISON  COUNTY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  A  Good  Samaritan  who  had  stopped  to  check  on  the  driver  of  a  vehicle  that  had  slid  off  River  Road  in  Bristol  this  past  Thursday  morning,  saw  her  own  vehicle  itself  become  the  vic-­ tim  of  a  hit  and  run.

Vermont  State  Police  said  that  Erin  Forbes,  28,  of  Bristol  stopped  to  check  on  the  vehicle  that  had  slid  off  the  snowy,  icy  road  at  around  8:30  a.m.  when  a  light  green  Ford  Escape  struck  her  Chevy  Trail-­ blazer,  causing  moderate  damage,  before  continuing  on  down  the  road  as  the  snow  continued  to  fall.  Police  believe  that  the  Escape  will  have  moderate  front  damage  as  a  result  of  the  collision.  Anyone  with  information  on  this  incident  is  asked  to  contact  state  police  at  the  New  Haven  barracks  at  388-­4919;Íž  information  may  be  submitted  anonymously  by  texting  â&#x20AC;&#x153;CRIMESâ&#x20AC;?  (274637)  with  key-­ word:  VTIPS  or  by  going  online  to  vsp.vermont.gov/tipsubmit.

In  a  separate  incident,  a  driver  ZKR OHIW WKH VFHQH RI D WUDI¿F FUDVK that  she  was  allegedly  involved  in,  was  found  and  cited.

No  one  was  at  the  scene  of  a  Dec.  5  crash  in  New  Haven  when  police  arrived,  and  also,  as  in  the  other  two  incidents,  the  weather  was  snowy.

How  do  toads  avoid  croaking  in  the  winter?

By  TIFFANY  SOUKUP I  manage  a  lodge  in  the  Groton  forest  on  behalf  of  Vermont  State  Parks.  One  warm  fall  day,  while  standing  outside  the  lodge,  I  noticed  movement  inside  one  of  the  window  wells  around  the  basement.  Realizing  that  something  noteworthy  was  about  to  happen,  I  ran  inside  to  alert  our  guests.  Together  we  all  crouched  to  watch  the  methodical  shaking  of  the  earth  below  us.  Slowly  the  ground  moved  a  little  to  the  left,  then  to  the  right,  then  there  was  a  pause,  then  left  again,  right  again.  Eventually  some-­ thing  reached  the  surface.  I  reached  my  hand  out  and  gently  touched  the  rough,  bumpy,  and  very  well  camou-­ Ă&#x20AC; DJHG EDFN RI DQ $PHULFDQ WRDG ,W continued  to  emerge,  fully  exposing  its  body.  The  guests  and  I  started  pondering  all  sorts  of  questions  about  toads  and  their  habits,  but  the  biggest  question  of  all  was:  where  do  toads  go  in  the  winter?

7KH $PHULFDQ WRDG Anaxyrus  americanus  (formerly  Bufo  ameri-­ canus)  typically  hibernates  under-­ ground,  below  the  frost  line.  In  the  Northeast,  toads  are  driven  into  their  burrows  sometime  between  September  and  October  and  re-­emerge  IURP $SULO WR 0D\ Research  suggests  that  toads  may  return  to  the  same  overwintering  sites  year  after  year.  They  may  be  loyal,  but  they  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  appear  to  be  very  picky:  They  live  LQ JDUGHQV IRUHVWV Âż HOGV DQG XUEDQ places.  They  also  overwinter  in  a  variety  of  sites.  What  they  need  is  loose  soil  to  dig.  Toads  usually  burrow  one  to  two  feet  into  the  ground  to  get  below  the  frost  line,  although  younger  toads  have  been  observed  burrowing  less  deeply.  They  will  use  existing  mammal  EXUURZV LI DYDLODEOH $QW PRXQGV DUH also  common  overwintering  sites.  In  urban  areas,  toads  will  often  seek  out  foundations  where  cracks  exist  and  burrow  their  way  down  into  those  crevices.  Some  toads  overwinter  in  old  tree  stumps,  and  high  concentra-­ tions  of  toads  are  often  found  under  rocks  and  logs  in  wet  areas  around  springs.  Toads  are  thought  to  be Â

The

solitary  hibernators,  however,  when  suitable  habitat  is  scarce,  communal  overwintering  has  been  documented.  Over  600  Canadian  toads  were  found  burrowed  together  in  a  sandy  hillside  in  Wood  Buffalo  National  Park  in  Canada.

Toads  enter  their  burrows  at  the  same  time  they  dig  them.  They  back  in  snugly  as  their  hind  legs  do  WKH GLJJLQJ $V WKH\ UHFHGH LQWR WKH burrow,  the  opening  caves  in  over  their  heads.  The  toad  draws  its  toes  under  itself,  bends  its  head  downwards,  and  enters  LQWR D WRUSLG VWDWH $V long  as  the  toad  does  not  freeze,  it  will  wake  once  the  spring  temperatures  consistently  start  rising  above  40  degrees.  I  wondered  how  climate  change  might  affect  toads,  so  I  contacted  -LP $QGUHZV OHDGHU RI WKH 9HUPRQW 5HSWLOH DQG $PSKLELDQ $WODV 3URMHFW and  asked  him  if  toads  were  resurfac-­ ing  too  early  during  unseasonably  warm  winter  weather.  He  hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  noticed  anything  related  to  this,  but  he  did  wonder  what  a  future  with  less  snow  cover  might  mean  for  toads.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;If  snow  becomes  less  frequent,  that  could  affect  the  depth  of  the  soil  freezing  temperatures  and  result  in  greater  mortality  in  toads  and  other  DPSKLELDQV ´ $QGUHZV VDLG The  toad  mortality  rate  is  impos-­ sible  to  predict  in  any  given  winter,  EXW RQH VWXG\ LQ 0LQQHVRWD  tracked  28  overwintering  toads  and  found Â

Brickell  did  say  that  the  ultimate  goal  is  to  make  as  much  money  in  the  shortest  amount  of  time,  but  he  added  a  disturbing  wrinkle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My  take  is  that  they  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  even  think  about  being  caught,â&#x20AC;?  he  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  been  up  and  back  so  many  times  without  getting  caught  that  they  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  even  think  about  being  caught.  The  lure  of  the  money  is  more  important  than  the  threat  of  being  caught.â&#x20AC;?

Brickell  said  local  and  state  police  are  tracking  some  traffick-­ ers  for  the  last  three  years,  some  despite  getting  caught  and  others  without  ever  being  arrested.

THE  GOOD  NEWS But  it  takes  more  than  law  enforcement  to  beat  the  opiate  problem  in  Vermont,  and  Brickell  said  that  the  Brandon  Cares  move-­ ment  and  the  publicity  surrounding  local  addicts  and  treatment  issues  has  already  made  a  difference  here. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Overall,  I  have  noticed  a  decrease  in  the  amount  of  drug  sales,â&#x20AC;?  the  chief  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;That  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  mean  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  not  happening,  but  the  blatancy  and  the  frequency  Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m  not  seeing  as  much  anymore.â&#x20AC;?

Brickell  said  he  knows  that  some  local  addicts  have  chosen  to  get  clean,  some  are  in  jail  and  some  are  under  supervision  that  is  keep-­ ing  them  away  from  a  bad  crowd. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d  see  the  same  people  we  know  were  users  going  to  three  or  four  places  a  day  and  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  not  seeing  that  at  all,â&#x20AC;?  Brickell  said.

The  chief  said  that  Brandon  Cares  and  the  community  dialogue  it  has  fostered  has  helped  bring  the  difficult  subject  of  drug  addiction  out  into  the  open. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What  I  have  noticed  about  the  Brandon  Cares  meetings  is  that  more  people  in  the  community  are  talking  about  these  issues  and  reaching  out  to  each  other  more  than  ever  before,â&#x20AC;?  Brickell  said.

From  the  initial  query  about  solar  panels  for  my  house  to  installation  and  well  beyond,  the  crew  at  Bristol  Electronics  has  been  professional,  prompt  and  knowledgeable.  They  came  over  for  a  site  evaluation,  wrote  up  a  proposal  and  sat  with  me  going  over  each  detail  and  answering  my  many  questions.   I  never  felt  like  I  was  being  given  the  hard  sell  nor  did  they  try  to  sell  me  more  panels  than  were  optimum.   Having  no  prior  knowledge  about  solar  power,  I  was  completely  reliant  on  their  honesty  and  expertise.   They  delivered  on  both  fronts.
