ELIZABETHTOWN | An Essex County jury found Cody Cutting guilty of second degree manslaughter in the shooting death of Derek “Boomer” Sprague in April. Cutting, 31, was acquitted of second degree murder, which would have carried a sentence of 25 years to life. He was also found guilty of second degree menacing, a misdemeanor. The jury returned a verdict at 5:43 p.m. on Tuesday after two-and-a-half hours of deliberations. Cutting shot and killed Sprague, the brother of Essex County District Attorney

Kristy Sprague, outside of the Eagles Club in Moriah on April 22. Sprague, speaking on behalf of the family, said the verdict was disappointing. “The unfortunate thing is my brother wasn’t here to show what a great guy he was,” Sprague said after the jury returned their verdict. “He was loved by many.” She thanked Warren County District Attorney Jason Carusone and the jury for their service. “Now we’re just awaiting sentencing.” Cutting, who was freed on bail last Monday, was remanded back into custody of the Essex County Sheriff ’s Office on $500,000 cash/$1 million bond. He faces between 5 and 15 years in state prison on the manslaughter charge when sentenced on Feb. 4. » Cutting Cont. on pg. 7

Farmers react to Farm Bill New insurance program welcomed, but overproduction continues to pose problem By Pete DeMola EDITOR

ALBANY | George Sayward said the dairy industry is as bad as he’s ever seen it in his four decades as a farmer. Prices continue to sell for below historic averages for the fourth consecutive year, which means many farmers lose money on each pound of milk they produce. Shrinking access to foreign markets and uncertain commodity prices pose additional problems. “The industry is in dire straights,” Sayward told The Sun. The $867 billion Farm Bill passed by Congress last week reauthorizes funding for numerous farming, conservation and nutrition programs after a touch-and-go year that saw negotiations collapse this summer over disputes over heightened work requirements for food stamps and immigration policy.

MARGIN PROGRAM SCRAPPED

The bill, which now awaits President Donald Trump’s signature, addresses the entrenched dairy crisis by reforming the now-scrapped Margin Protection Program, an insurance program that provides dairy farmers with

payouts when milk prices fall or feed costs rise. If a producer selects $7.50 coverage, for instance, benefits are paid when the producer margin goes below $7.50. U.S. Sen. Kristen Gillibrand (D-New York) and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Schulyerville) have called the program a failure. “Since 2014, thousands of New York dairy farmers paid millions of dollars to the USDA for this coverage, but when milk prices and feed prices fell at the same time, most farmers lost money on every pound of milk they sold and never received a payment,” said Gillibrand in a statement. The replacement Dairy Margin Coverage (DMC) program offers revised margins that range from $4 to $9.50. And the replacement reduces premiums on catastrophic coverage as well as eliminates prohibitions of participating in both DMC and the Livestock Gross Margin Program. DMC also provides credits for producers who participated in MPP from 2014-2017, offering farmers either a 50 percent refund or a 75 percent credit toward purchase of a new risk program.

The timeline has been winnowed to one month. But while Sayward agrees raising the coverage ceiling is a good thing, he believes a major flaw remains in how the actual margin, known as Actual Producer Dairy Margin (APDM), is formulated. The number is based on the nationwide price of milk and feed, including alfalfa hay, corn and soybeans. But it’s formulated on wholesale numbers, not the price Sayward pays when those items are delivered by feed companies “So that margin is actually off by a fair amount,” said Sayward, who estimated at least a $1.50 differential. “I was hoping that part of the Farm Bill would be more accurate, but it hasn’t been,” he said. Stefanik said she advocated for language as part of the DMC that will require a comprehensive study on feed costs.

Sam Dyer, co-owner of a family farm in Beekmantown, applauded the changes. “When the program was first implemented, we spent thousands of dollars and got nothing,” he said. “I don’t think I’ve even broken even on the program yet.” Sayward, too, said the reforms are important. “It’s really the only safety net the dairy industry has anymore,” he said. Under MPP, farmers had to hit the margin two months in a row to receive a payout.

The dairy co-op to which Sayward belongs has lost 80 members this year, and now contains about 800 in New York, Maine, Connecticut and New Hampshire. Despite the losses, however, production amongst the remaining farmers has increased, he said, even as consumption is at a downward trend. “It’s a matter of supply and demand over production by the dairy farmers,” he said. Curbing production isn’t as simple as simply

‘GOT NOTHING’

SUPPLY ISSUES

limiting the amount, he said, because farmers are producing more milk to increase cash flow in order to stave off plummeting cattle prices, therefore inadvertently making the problem worse. Dyer agreed. “We have to get control of production,” he said. “We need to utilize our supply and not put them in inventory and kill the market.” Cattle prices are also at a 30-year low, Sayward said. The average cattle fell from $2,100 per head in 2014 to just below $1,000 at present — “if you can get somebody to buy them,” he said. “It’s going to be a real problem if price of cattle doesn’t start going up.” Shifting global markets have also proved problematic for local farmers. Sayward was optimistic the renegotiated NAFTA deal known as the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement would further open markets once ratified by Congress and signed by the president. “That might be the beginning for turning this around more than anything else, but time will tell,” Sayward said. The new bill also legalizes the production of hemp and expands insurance for specialty crops. Dyer said diversification is the key to survival. “We have to diversify,” he said. “It’s not just milk. We grow veggies, sell beef — we try to retail everything we can.” ■ — This story has been abridged for print. To read this story in its entirety, visit suncommunitynews.com.

» Church Cont. from pg. 1 By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER

HAGUE | After a soaking rainstorm in late summer of 2017, a neighbor of the Hague Baptist church noticed stones falling from the belltower. An investigation quickly determined that the centuryold tower had lost its integrity, and was in need of repair. Fearing a total collapse, some stones were removed while the damage was evaluated. The project was substantial, but seemed manageable. The congregation hired Ticonderoga contractor Ernest LaBarge, established a GoFundMe page and raised $30,000 toward preliminary repairs. Another $50,000 would need to be raised, but with parishioner Michael Cherubini leading the charge the church was optimistic. Then, during a July 4 parade, Cherubini, a Hague fire-

fighter, fell ill while riding on a department brush truck and died later that day. Parishioner Don Loveland said he doesn’t know if Cherubini had any particular premonition, but that Cherubini had asked him to keep an eye on the project should anything happen to him. Loveland said Cherubini’s death was a blow, both as a personal loss and as a loss for the project. “He liked this kind of stuff, and he was good at it,” Loveland said. Loveland and Cherubini’s wife Maureen have kept momentum going on the project, but just as the finances looked positive, the church got more bad news. The tower had apparently been leaking for a long time, and the frame wall inside the stonework running down to the vestibule had all but rotted away. Suddenly the project became more complex and more expensive. Loveland said the congregation of about 15 to 20 people — which has been worshiping in a newer addition to the sanctuary while the work is being performed — has been able to raise about $75,000, with another $25,000 coming

from The New York Landmarks Conservancy’s Sacred Sites Program. He said the church is still trying to raise money to cover any more unpleasant surprises. It had been hoped the work would be done by Christmas, but the added problems have pushed that into next year, he said. According to a 2018 annual recap written by Adirondack Architectural Heritage, “The Hague Baptist Church was constructed in 1912 and is a fantastic example of an early20th century, rural, gothic revival church complex consisting of a church and parsonage.” The architectural organization said the church was not yet listed on the National Register of Historic Places, but that it had submitted the application to the New York Landmarks Conservancy Sacred Sites Program, a grant program for the preservation of places of worship in New York state, “in light of the urgency of the required work” and that “In the meantime we are preparing a National Register nomination pro bono so that the church may be eligible for preservation funding in the future.” ■

TWO WED IN HAGUE: Maggie Evatt and Tim Crowley were married on Sept. 8 at Wintergreen Lake in Hague, officiated by Hon. Dean Dietrich. Following the wedding, the couple honeymooned in Italy and Greece. Evatt is the daughter of Russ and Peggy Evatt, of Sabael, and the granddaughter of Terry and Alice Fish, of Indian Lake. The bride is a marketing and communications specialist for Hudson Headwaters Health Network in Queensbury. She is a graduate of SUNY Brockport. Crowley is the son of Peter and Diane Crowley, of Delmar, and the grandson of Eugene Crowley, of Manhasset, and Gilda Famiglietti, of Deltona, Florida. The groom is a vice president branch manager for Glens Falls National Bank in South Glens Falls. He is a graduate of the College of Saint Rose. The couple met while skiing at Gore Mountain and now reside in Saratoga Springs. Photo provided

corresponds to a drop in pH) in lakes within the park, and by the 1960s fish populations were in decline. In many lakes, particularly in the Southwestern part of the park, there were virtually no fish, Josephson said. Scientific studies of fisheries at Honnedaga Lake were abandoned in the 1970s, he said, because “there was nothing to net.” Adirondack fisheries are most diverse around Lake George, but in the higher elevations few species took hold in the lakes as glaciers receded. The iconic brook trout, along with lake trout and whitefish, were the primary victims of acid rain in fisheries that had not yet been invaded by bass, pike, or other predators. Adirondack lakes were particularly vulnerable to acid rain, because the geology contained little calcium to mitigate its effects. As a countermeasure, the state spread lime on the ice of some lakes in winter to raise the pH.

By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER

RAY BROOK | The reversal of damage caused by acid rain, which was devastating to native Adirondack fish populations, is an environmental success story. But looming on the horizon is climate change, which could also be deadly, while at the same time being a harder problem to solve. Daniel Josephson, a Cornell biologist for the Adirondack Fishery Research Program, told a meeting of the Adirondack Park Agency Thursday that by the 1920s, industrialization was beginning to raise acidity levels (which

Cornell fisheries biologist Daniel Josephson speaks to a meeting of the Adirondack Park Agency. Photo by Tim Rowland On the pH scale, 7 is neutral, and without treatment, the pH in some Adirondack lakes dropped as low at 4.1. The pH of vinegar is 2.4. The acidity itself is not deadly, Josephson said, but it causes a chemical reaction that produces a form of aluminum that sticks to the gills of the fish. Released into waters with high acidity, fish will be dead within a day. The turnaround came in 1990 with amendments to the Clean Air Act, requiring scrubbers on coal-fired electrical generators. These measures reduced sulfur dioxide at the smokestack by 85 percent. Change was slow at first, but as time went by, progress quickened. “In 2000 we actually got a report someone was catching fish at Honnedaga,” Josephson said. By 2011, pH had returned to a healthy 6, and fish populations were rapidly expanding. At the same time, lakes were becoming murkier, which was actually a good thing. Counterintuitively, crystal clear water is not a sign of a healthy lake, which should have microscopic plants and organisms and dissolved carbons that give Adirondack lakes their coppery color. As acidity declined, there was “a greening and browning effect,” Josephson said.

“Lakes were a lot less clear, which is basically saying they’re recovering from acidity.” Water that is not as clear has a side benefit, in that it essentially offers shade to trout, which need cold water to survive. And as the planet warms, these fish will need all the protection they can get. So far this century, the occasional, extrahot years have killed off entire populations of adult fish in shallow lakes with no deep, protective pools of cold water. The fishery in those more vulnerable lakes can survive only if small, young fish can take shelter in cold tributaries. With acid rain, scientists and regulators could pinpoint the source of the problem and fix it. But with climate change, there is no such silver bullet. As the atmosphere warms, so do the lakes and when the temperature hits 68 trout lose their ability to feed. “They’re forced to basically shut down and live on their fat reserves,” Josephson said. In the particularly hot summer of 2005, studies of a shallow lake recorded a water temperature of 77 degrees. “In 2005 it killed all mature fish” in the shallow lake, Josephson said. “We’ve not seen back to back hot years but potentially you could lose the entire population.” ■

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline

Sharing the holiday

This time of year, we should all think about others and putting a smile on the faces of those By Dan Alexander we love and even • PUBLISHER • those we hardly know. Many feel an even deeper joy when they can bring a smile to a perfect stranger. The celebration of Hanukkah and Christmas is all about hope, faith and love. It’s a time for giving and receiving, a time for friends and family and it’s a time to remember the true meaning of the season of light and how the birth of a child changed our world forever. In a world as mixed up as ours get s from time to time, where would we be without light and hope? This time of year, when the darkness invades our lives here in the northeast, even the simple twinkle of holiday lights is enough to lift our spirits. Those lights pale in comparison to the true light of life we earnestly seek. We would all like to have a storybook holiday season, and while each of us does our best to try and bring the right attitude into the holiday season, we know that for many, the holiday is just another day, devoid of light and hope. Perhaps it’s the loss of a loved one, an illness or an addiction that keeps them from experiencing the joys of this season. It’s all the more reason we need to reach out to others during this time, helping them to experience the joy that is meant to shared. It’s amazing what a little hope, faith and love can do in your life and those you reach out to if you are willing to share with someone less fortunate. Let’s face it, with all of our holiday preparations and trappings we’ve developed over the years, at the end of the day wouldn’t you rather trade a little bit of those for a more perfect world filled with respect, sharing, light, hope and true peace for all? On behalf of the Sun Community News family, I would like to wish you and your family a very joyous holiday, a prosperous new year and hope all your holiday wishes come true. God bless us, one and all. Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, and best wishes in the coming new year. ■

in so many ways. While serving his country in the armed services, he nearly lost his life defending you and me. “Amazing Grace” was sung at his service by his friends, which spoke of how thankful he was, but always questioned “Why Me, Lord?” and spent his lifetime giving back as devoted husband, father, grandfather, statesman and finally as president. What more could he do to pay back? But he did so much more, for he was a peacemaker. History bears that out. But President Bush was a man of honor and lover of people and his country. The words of the hymns, came through as “This Is My Country,” “The Lord’s Prayer,” “Onward Christian Soldiers” and the national service hymn were played or sung and great voices always sound so full and wonderful when the people singing love the one they are paying tribute to. The words spoken with such love and feeling and the grandson’s words were so filled with gratitude for a role model who shaped his life All the national protocol and honor, the home town love and warmth and the very private farewell was a fitting tribute to not only the president, but our president and the father of a president.

We must move past climate change deniers

To the Editor: Editor’s note: This letter is in response to Terry K. Hurlburt’s letter, “Climate change does exist — it’s called ‘spring, summer, fall and winter’” which appeared in the Dec. 15 edition of The Sun. The angry and undocumented claims about climate change in the letter of last week seem as willfully blind and as tragically arrogant as those of President Trump. If the highest concentrations of atmospheric carbon in 300,000 years, ocean acidification, glacial retreat, extreme fires and floods worldwide, sea level rise, shrinking ice sheets, warming oceans, decreased snow cover, global temperature rise, glacial retreat can’t convince that writer, nor the president, of climate change, then we must gently but firmly move past them. Ninety-seven percent of climate scientists are convinced that these phenomena are human-caused. If that were an election, we’d be downplaying it to call it a landslide and the overwhelming mandate it is. - David Thomas-Train, Keene Valley ■ This free community newspaper exists to serve the informational needs of the community and to stimulate a robust local economy.

» Cutting Cont. from pg. 1 The jury’s decision came after closing remarks that began with Cutting’s defense attorney Kevin O’Brien, who had made points throughout the trial suggesting his client was afraid for his life as he encountered Sprague in a parking lot outside the bar. O’Brien’s case steadily built off of witness testimony, video footage and the call Cutting made to 911 dispatch after the shooting happened. “I believe the evidence showed Cody was justified in his actions,” O’Brien said. “He had an honest belief Mr. Sprague was willing, honest and able to use deadly force against him.” The burden of proof, O’Brien said, is not on the defense. It is, he said, the prosecution’s job to prove Cutting was not justified in actions taken that night. O’Brien built against the People’s position that asked Cutting on the stand why he didn’t just get into his truck and leave that night. “If he backs out and hits him, he’s on trial for the same damn thing we’re here for now,” O’Brien challenged. O’Brien reviewed testimony given by Cutting in court under oath. As he was trying to leave the bar, defense summed: “He’s told, ‘You’re not leaving. I’m gonna f****** kill you. Do you think you might fear for your life? “What do you think was going to happen outside?” O’Brien asked the jury. “Do you think it was going to get better for Cody?” Defense referred to video shown in court where Cutting pointed to the security camera. “Do you think Cody points to the camera and says ‘save those videos, I’m going (outside) to commit murder?” Defense pushed back against intention to kill saying Cutting racked the gun “to try to get Mr. Sprague away from him.” “He sees that look in Mr. Sprague’s eyes — that he snapped,” O’Brien recounted the case he’d made throughout the past week. “I’m not trying to hurt Mr. Sprague’s family or his reputation,” O’Brien said before playing a threatening voice mail message left some time

ago on the phone of a friend of Cutting’s family. “Do you honestly thing things were going to get better for Cody outside?” the lawyer asked the jury again. “Well guess what, Cody believed he was going to die.” Defense addressed the jury from the start, admitting this was a difficult case, especially this time of year. O’Brien said he usually has a hook, a fiery response to close the case. “There is no hook here,” he told the jury. “I think it would be an insult to your intelligence.” Defense closing remarks extended over an hour and a half. And after a break, Carusone presented prosecution’s closing remarks. “Facts are not in dispute,” he said, reiterating the cause of Sprague’s death was a .45 caliber bullet. “So much of this case is not in argument,” Carusone said. “Take those facts and work through it,” he urged the jury, raising two questions: “Was the defendant justified in killing Derek Sprague?” and “What was on his mind?” “Was it intentional? Was it reckless? Was it something else?” Carusone asked, moving through elements of charges Cutting faced. To be “justified,” Carusone said, the defendant must have had an “honest belief ” he would be killed or seriously injured. Carusone said facts must also determine whether or not Cutting had the ability to retreat from the situation. Looking back to witness testimony and security camera footage, Carusone said Sprague was not the initial aggressor. “Throwing a guy off a bar stool is not deadly physical force,” the prosecuting attorney told jurors. “Was it wrong? Yes,” Carusone said. “Does it warrant death? No,” he continued. Carusone told the jury no one but Cutting testified in court that he told Sprague he was leaving to report the physical aggression to the Eagles Club president, a contention defense said caused Sprague to snap. “And nobody else hears ‘I’m gonna kill you’,” Carusone said of the exchange outside. “Why? Because it didn’t happen,” the pros-

ecutor said. “That’s something he (Cutting) is telling you now.” Carusone asked the jury to consider carefully Cutting’s recollection of what happened as he went to his truck and retrieved the gun. “Do you turn your back on the thing that’s about to kill you?” Carusone asked the jury. The law says, Carusone said, if able, you must retreat. But Cutting pulled the gun. “So what is this about?” prosecution asked jurors. “Cody isn’t a guy that backs down. Clearly, he was a common denominator in behavior in the club that night. “He knows he’s got a loaded handgun in his truck,” Carusone said, telling the jury that Cutting decided to change the equation. “To say he thinks Boomer was going to kill him is a lie. Is it reasonable,” prosecution continued, based on a look in a person’s eye “to think ‘he’s gonna kill me?’” Even that, Carusone, is not enough. “If you can safely leave without risk to yourself,” Carusone read the law, “his obligation under the law is to leave.” Prosecution said Cutting’s ego made the choice. “I’m choosing not to (leave) and he grabs the gun,” the prosecutor summed. “Introducing the gun makes (Cutting) the aggressor,” Carusone said. “But he didn’t get the reaction he expected.” As to the unintended gunshot, Carusone said Cutting’s actions after Sprague fell were telling. “You can’t say ‘my mistake,’ ‘I’m sorry,’ as you walk by the body.” Carusone also told jurors that intent can be formed in a split second. “I submit that the look in the eye was when they were face-to-face. Boomer’s look in his eye may have been fear.” Carusone asked the jury to follow the course of natural consequences. “Is a natural reaction of falling to hold a gun up?” the lawyer asked, leaning back, raising a finger like a gun. “Boomer has rights, too,” the lawyer said.

“He tried to defend himself when a gun is in his face.” And, Carusone said, Cutting knew he killed Sprague. With police, Carusone recounted, “He says ‘so I’m getting charged with a homicide?’ He was talking about jail in the first minute of his phone call.” Carusone recounted first words in Cutting’s 9-1-1 call “I killed a guy.” “Not — ‘I accidentally shot Boomer.” Carusone went through each charge, murder and manslaughter, which require proof that Cutting was justified in using deadly force. Prosecution took about an hour for closing arguments. Essex County Judge Richard B. Meyer then gave instructions on the laws jurors were to consider, pointing to justification as a key part of each of the top counts. The defendant was “not justified,” Meyer read the law, “if he was the initial aggressor — the first person who used deadly force or believed it was about to be used against him.” The defendant is “not justified” Meyer read, “if he could avoid use of deadly force by retreating.” The court added a fourth charge, a lesser included offense, asking the jury to consider criminally negligent homicide if they found Cutting not-guilty of second-degree murder or second-degree manslaughter. “You and you alone are responsible to decide if the defendant is guilty or not-guilty,” Meyer instructed the jury. “Consider the evidence,” he said. “Charges are set forth in an indictment. An indictment is not evidence.” Meyer also instructed the jury as to definitions of “reasonable doubt” and “justification,” which is the legal term for self-defense. “The People (prosecution) are required to prove that the defendant was not justified,” Meyer said. The jury began deliberations at about 3:07 p.m. and sent three notes to the court, looking to review evidence, including the testimony given by Tur about events that occurred in the Eagles Club parking lot. The fourth note indicating a verdict was presented to the court at approximately 5:30 p.m. ■

Waterfront committee stays afloat Campsite redevelopment will continue without consultant, for now By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER

PORT HENRY | As the Town of Moriah looks to maximize returns on its two waterfront campgrounds, it will retain the services of a waterfront committee that is working with a New York investor to redevelop the valuable properties. But, at least for now, it will not extend the contract of a consultant who found the investor and was helping to find ways that campers might further boost the local economy. Board members said that ideally they could retain the services of Michael Crane of Crane Associates in Burlington, but there was no money in the budget to pay the $38,000 it would cost to retain him for the coming six months. Nor was any grant money available to help. A state grant for $75,000 was initially used to pay for Crane’s services last year. “Mike’s done a great job for us, but we don’t have $38,000 floating around in the budget,” said Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava. Waterfront committee members said they would continue to look for grants in hopes of working Crane back into the fold. Crane determined that while the 175-site Bulwagga Bay campground was profitable, it was grossly inefficient, producing roughly the same amount of net income — about $70,000 to $80,000 — as other campgrounds with half the sites. Crane and the waterfront committee proffered three proposals, from a general sprucing up with some added amenities, the addition of cabins and yurts, to the addition of a hotel. The middle option was selected, and Crane enticed New York real estate developer BQ Properties to draw up a redevelopment proposal. Board and waterfront committee member Luci Carpen-

ter said the developer has until April 1 to come up with a plan for the town’s consideration. Scozzafava said he was “very impressed” with the investors when he sat down with them several weeks ago. But he added that since the campground remains profitable, the town will not be forced to accept any deals it does not find attractive. Construction of cabins and yurts, with perhaps some other improvements such as a restaurant, is estimated to cost about $1.1 million. The campgrounds have grown long in the tooth, and Scozzafava said the town will need to invest money in the property to maintain it as a profitable business. If a deal can’t be reached with an investor, he said the town might have to go it alone. “We may have to bite the bullet and seriously consider taking it to the community” as a bond issue, Scozzafava said. “This is a business, and there really needs to be more

money put back into it.” In other matters, the town presented a plaque to Moriah Ambulance Squad Capt. Lou Paris for 30 years of service. Paris, regarded through the community as the heart and soul of the ambulance squad, took the opportunity to brief the town board on the squad’s condition — as with many ambulance companies, calls are up, but volunteerism is down. EMT Brandy Michener added that in addition to running calls, volunteers — particularly EMTs and paramedics — have to be willing to sacrifice extensive time and money for training. “There’s a lot more to it than what they tell you in the booklet,” she said. As the squad bills users to help pay for the service, Paris also stressed that he is always willing to work with anyone who has trouble paying bills. And the company does what it can to keep costs down. “We are still volunteers,” he said. The company receives no money from the town. ■

Determination leads to graduation Ti teachers help student climb a difficult hill By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER

TICONDEROGA | When Latesha Holman walked into a Ticonderoga Central School office earlier this month, it was something of a Christmas miracle. Not that she was a stranger to principals’ offices — or courtrooms, or clinics or social outreach programs, or any other harbor representative of a stormy life. This time, though, it wasn’t a reprimand that was waiting for her, it a snow white cap and gown. Against all odds, Holman was there to graduate. Her journey had previously been a too-often-told story of a wildly troubled youth, of the kind that so often ends in tragedy. Instead, Holman, despite cognitive and social challenges and a difficult home environment, decided not to fail. And while it’s a story of a young woman’s determination, it’s also a story showing a side of the public school system that few get to see. Because along with their everyday classroom duties, there were a number of teachers, counselors and administrators who went out of their way to devote countless hours to saving a lost soul that could quite easily have been cast aside. After all, there was nothing in Holman’s life that would have led anyone to suspect she was capable of turning it around.

DIRECTIONLESS

Still shy of her 20th birthday, it was nine years ago that Holman’s life began to spiral out of control. In a school bus altercation, she broke and dislocated the driver’s thumb, and barely escaped doing time in juvenile hall. Run-ins with the law continued — breaking and entering, assault. “My police report, it was pretty long,” she said. Drifting from Moriah to Ticonderoga, she was placed in the former alternative high school for troubled and aggressive students, where drama was a common occurrence. Once, to get away from the outburst of another student,

Surrounded by her supporters, Latesha Holman earns her high school certificate. she found herself huddled in the corner with a boy with whom she would become pregnant. At a time when most students were high school sophomores, Holman found herself sitting in a clinic waiting to terminate her pregnancy. The waiting room gave her time to think. “They gave me a pill to take, and I thought, why should I ruin this life just because I’ve ruined mine?” She ran out. And kept running. Separated from her family, she found herself homeless, sleeping on the couches of anyone who would have her. School was difficult. If there was something about a teacher she didn’t like, “I would get up and literally leave the classroom,” she said. “I would still do the work, I just couldn’t sit in class.” Holman acknowledges she does not particularly like other people — one of the many issues she’s working on. She once became upset with a history teacher for being “too happy.” Teachers and Holman tried each others’ patience, She dropped out and came very close to falling through the state’s social safety net, said Traci Ploufe, Health and Recovery Coordinator for Adirondack Employment Opportunities, a nonprofit that works to assimilate those with developmental challenges into the community.

HARD TO FIND

With no fixed address and a cell phone that frequently ran out of minutes, Holman was hard to reach in order to schedule appointments, verify benefits or to help her find a place to live. Holman admits she didn’t always want to be reached, because it meant having to interact with people. Her desire to help herself came in spurts, but by the time the reams of paperwork was processed, she was liable to have lost momentum. The system is not nimble, and can be hard for anyone, much less someone whose direction and motivation is so variable. “If it’s frustrating for me, I can understand how frustrating it is for Latesha,” Ploufe said. Progress was, and is, achingly slow. She became pregnant again, but there was no thought of ending this pregnancy, because Holman had discovered

she was a good mother. A year earlier, she had saved her son Wyatt’s life. Now he was about to save hers. Rejecting an abortion in the clinic that day, Holman had decided to instead put her infant up for adoption. A couple had been lined up, but somehow they got the sense she might get cold feet, so they backed out. That gave mother and son just enough time to bond. “What made me get attached was that I heard him cry,” Holman said. “I wanted to see what he looked like. And if it hadn’t been for him, I wouldn’t have changed. She got on the phone and asked if the school would take her back. Today, as Wyatt, now two, happily plays with colored stones, Holman talks about teachers at Moriah and Ticonderoga whom she “couldn’t stand” — and how much she loves them now, for their unflagging help. “They got me through everything,” she said. “I just saw the school shining a light on someone who really needed it,” Ploufe said. “The teachers just didn’t give up on her.” Ticonderoga Schools Superintendent John McDonald Jr. said educators will go above and beyond the call of duty when a child needs help, but ultimately the student has to be the one to make the decision. “If kids are willing to so what she did, we’re here to help,” he said. “But the kid has to be motivated — and she was.” Teachers and counselors went outside the school to find programs to help Holman assimilate into the community. Holman is still looking for a place of her own, but she has a job — her first job ever — as a sub in the school cafeteria. She hopes to build up her hours and become self-supportive. She is cautious, knowing how fleeting even small successes can be. “There are some downward paths at the moment, but we’ll get through them,” she said. At her impromptu graduation ceremony, Holman hugged the teachers and administrators with whom she had engaged in so many epic confrontations over the years. “I like them now; I always knew they were trying to help, I just didn’t want to deal with them.” As family members looked on, Holman fought back tears, and encountered a feeling that was entirely new to her when it came to school: “I didn’t want to leave.” ■

Transfer station fees see increase Hikes required to pay for equipment upgrades By Pete DeMola EDITOR

Transfer station fees across Essex County are scheduled to increase following lawmaker approval of a $350,000 plan to upgrade equipment at town transfer stations around the county and at the central collection point in Lewis. Photo provided

MORIAH | Transfer station fees are increasing across the county, and town supervisors have until Jan. 1 to finalize new policies as part of a five-year county equipment replacement plan. Most towns in Essex County run transfer stations using county-owned equipment. But much of it is 20 years old, said Essex County Deputy Superintendent of Public Works Jim Dougan. “We developed a plan to replace and maintain equipment,” Dougan said. This includes compactors, trucks, a fleet of 20 trailers and dumpsters, among other items. The $350,000 plan calls for the county to contribute $250,000, and participating towns, $100,000. The county will raise tipping fees from $62 to $85 per ton as part of the plan. “Each town will need to make a plan to meet that higher tipping fee,” Dougan said. The central processing site in Lewis processes 10,000 tons of garbage annually. Several localities have already implemented modest fee increases — including Elizabethtown, Lewis, Chesterfield, Essex and Willsboro — while others indicated they would implement changes beginning Jan. 1. “Nobody wants to raise the cost,” said Essex Supervisor Ron Jackson “On the other hand, you have to pay the price.” Fees in Chesterfield were raised from $1.50 to $2 per bag in September. “We haven’t had any complaints,” said Chesterfield Supervisor Jerry Morrow. Costs in Lewis doubled, but the transfer station will con-

or the station in Moriah. Town of Moriah Supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said an increase is needed. “I want to wait to see where I am at the end of the year and take it from there,” he said. “But absolutely there needs to be an increase. I’m not sure what the amount is.” Moriah hosts the second-busiest transfer station in county behind North Elba. Scozzafava said the town is weighing additional changes, including making a half-time position a full-time position and scaling back acceptance of construction and demolition debris to two days a week. An influx of electronics is also posing a problem, said Scozzafava. The town has appointed a committee to examine operations to “streamline where it can be more productive for constituents for services and cost efficiency.” Ticonderoga Supervisor Joe Giordano said the town remains undecided on a plan. “It remains to be seen how Ticonderoga will decide to inflate rates in the future,” he said. But he acknowledged it’s critical to update aging infrastructure, including a compactor at the town’s transfer station. “We’ll do our best to try to provide what is a benefit to Ti residents,” Giordano said. Lawmakers approved the five-year plan in August. ■

Voters OK CVES capital project Financial shares will vary by school district

As part of the project, CVES will relocate its Instructional Services Center from Area Development Drive in Plattsburgh and purchase property they’re already leasing at the old Clinton County Airport along with an additional 20 adjoining acres for future expansion. District officials say the changes will save approximately $260,000 in lease costs per year, totaling over $2.6 million every 10 years moving forward. Voters in 17 districts in Clinton, Essex, Warren and Washington counties headed to the polls last week. But since CVES BOCES is a single unified district, approval wasn’t needed in all districts, but rather a simple majority vote. “It’s impossible to break down who voted

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

MORIAH | Voters have signed off on Champlain Valley Educational Services’ (CVES) $29.8 million capital project. The final vote tally last Tuesday was 72 percent to 28 percent. The plan will allow for major infrastructure upgrades at the Plattsburgh and Mineville campuses, including bolstered security and safety. The project has been long overdue, said

shoulder fewer than 1 percent of project costs, while districts like Beekmantown Central are slated to pay 13.5 percent, or $2.4 million, and Plattsburgh City School, 13.1 percent.

Massena Police received an anonymous tip that LaRock was hiding in that area which they forwarded to state police. LaRock is charged with one count of second degree murder, aggravated criminal possession of a weapon, tampering with physical evidence and concealment of a human corpse, all felonies. He was arraigned at the Ticonderoga Town Court by Judge Keith Dolbeck and remanded to the Essex County Jail with no bail. Two other suspects were arrested in connection with the crime after Brown’s body was found in the LaChute River

near Bicentennial Park Friday morning. Joshua W. Smith, 35, and Donald C. LaRock, 63, both of Ticonderoga, were charged with one count each of firstdegree hindering prosecution, tampering with physical evidence and concealment of a human corpse. They were not charged with his killing. Donald LaRock is Michael LaRock’s father. Hurlburt said Brown had been shot in the head at another location and that the men dragged or carried his body to the river. Brown was a retired U.S. Army veteran who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Hurlburt declined to speculate on the motive. Police have not

It take us back to brighter years, to happier sunlit days and to precious moments that will be with us always. And these fond recollections are treasured in the heart to bring us always close to those from whom we had to part.

The Town of Moriah Town Offices will be closing at Noon on Monday, December 24, 2018 and will re-open for regular business hours on Wednesday, December 26th; the Town Offices will also be closed on Tuesday, January 1, 2019. We will be open for regular business hours on December 31, 2018. Happy Holidays!

said whether the murder weapon has been found, or whether the two men in custody are cooperating with authorities. Authorities had said Michael LaRock should be considered armed and dangerous. He has a lengthy criminal record that includes weapons charges, narcotics, stolen property, burglary, assault and driving while intoxicated. Hulburt said Smith was arrested in Ticonderoga, and the elder LaRock was arrested in Tupper Lake. He said it appeared the LaRocks fled town together and later split up. Hurlburt said the suspects and victim knew each other. “I’d say they were acquaintances, but not necessarily friends,” he said. Donald LaRock and Smith were arraigned in Ticonderoga Town Court and sent to Essex County Jail pending $25,000 cash bail, or $50,000 bond. ■

two districts earlier this month will result in that number being revised based on new RWADA numbers, said Smith. Other district shares include Moriah (2 percent), Ticonderoga (5.6 percent), Crown Point (2 percent) and Schroon Lake at 1.3 percent. Ausable Valley will pay 8.5 percent, and Willsboro, 1.9 percent. (See sidebar for more details.) CVES presented the plan to school boards in each district earlier this fall. Officials are free to determine the best way to contribute their share, from one-time payments or more gradual arrangements. “Each district is going to be different,” Smith said. “It is up to each district to decide what is best for them.” The next step is the state environmental permitting process, which can take months. “This will be a year in the ground before we put a shovel in the ground,” Smith said. ■

Grant awarded for Ti BackPack Program TICONDEROGA | Ticonderoga Central School was awarded a $3,500 grant by the Pearsall Adirondack Foundation for the school’s food distribution programs. These programs include the BackPack Program, run by members of Ticonderoga Central Schools and the Kiwanis Club of Ticonderoga who send eligible students home each Friday during the school year with backpacks filled with

nutritious foods to help them eat healthy over the weekend. Eligible students also receive food during the summer when the free breakfasts and lunches at school are not available. Organizers said they appreciate the foundation’s support which will enable local kids with added nutrition to take better advantage of the growth and educational opportunities they have at school. The program began in January 2013 with 30 students and is now serving over 100 students from Ticonderoga Central Schools in the 2018–19 school year. Ticonderoga Kiwanis members also work with other area school officials on their backpack programs. In total, the BackPack Program serves over 250 students at seven schools including Crown Point Central, St. Mary’s,

Putnam Central, Schroon Lake, Moriah Central and Peru Central schools. The grants provided by the Pearsall Adirondack Foundation have enabled this expansion. Organizers say they hope to expand the program further. The cost to sponsor a child for one year is $183, and all donations are used to purchase the food to fill the backpacks from the Regional Food Bank of Northeast NY. For more information or to donate, contact John Bartlett at jbartlett1@nycap.rr.com. ■

Crown Point sweeps Westport in MVAC

For the Eagles, Abbey Schwoebel scored 18 points, while Rachel Storey added 14, Ella King 11, Skylar BIsselle 4, Kaeli Brack 4 and Maggie Ploufe 3.

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

CROWN POINT | The Crown Point boys and girls varsity basketball team ended their second week as MVAC Northern Division teams with a pair of big wins over the Westport Eagles. The boys team scored a 73-44 win over the Eagles in Westport Dec. 13, while the Lady Panthers rebounded from two tough overtime losses to score a 59-54 win over the previously unbeaten Lady Eagles Dec. 14. “We were able to finish at the basket giving us many basket and one opportunities,” said Panthers coach Kevin Peters. “Good defense with solid rebounding and aggressive play resulted in steals and forced turnovers. We also played very good offense by protecting the ball and allowing few turnovers. Probably the biggest key to our win was good free throw shooting throughout the game and especially at the end of the game.” The duo of Hannah Palmer and Shawna McIntosh were key for the Panthers, as Palmer scored 31 points to lead all scorers and McIntosh added 25 points. Lilli Peters added 2 points, while Lauren Kimball connected on one free throw. The win came after a pair of tough overtime losses to divisional foes Schroon Lake and Willsboro, which Peters said was a “tremendous” win to boost the teams confidence. “We were able to put a complete game together,” Peters said. “I feel confident this win has motivated us to finish strong going into the Christmas break.” » Sports wrap Cont. from pg. 20 Willsboro scored a 54-49 win over Crown Point Dec. 11 as Trevor Bigelow scored 15 points, followed by Jared Joslyn with 11, Cody Ahrent 11, Jared Ball eight, Peyton Ford six and Oliver Lee three. Zach Spaulding led the Panthers with 19 points, while Jake LaDeau added 17 and Reese Celloti eight.

GIRLS BASKETBALL

Moriah pulled away from Saranac Lake in the second half Dec. 14, outscoring the Red Storm 19-12 in a 40-29 win as Noel Williams scored 15 points and Kenady Allen added 13 to lead the Vikings, while McKenzie Sprague scored 8 and Gwen Eichen 4. Mecalyn Sousa led the Red Storm with 7 points with Mistre Newton scoring 6, Nora Glover 5, Olivia Bell 5, Kylee Clark 2, Maggie Carpenter 2 and Serena Stevens 2.

Zach Spaulding connected on nine three-pointers as part of a 35 point night as the Panthers jumped out to a 38-25 halftime lead before outscoring the Eagles 35-19 in the second. “We really didn’t put them away until late in the game,” Panthers coach John Swinton said. “We committed way too many fouls, and that’s also something that collectively, we have to clean up a little bit. Zach and Reese (Celotti) shot the ball well and in order for us to run on all cylinders, that’s what has to happen.” Reese Celotti added 18 points for the Panthers, while Jake LaDeau had 13, Cody Crammond 3, Noah Spaulding 2, Cameron Harrington 1 and Andrew DuShane 1. Swinton said the Panthers are still looking to find their grove. “I think that we’re a little behind where I expected to be at this point in the season, but it is a long season,” he said. “I’m less concerned about our record right now and more concerned with learning from our mistakes and not continuing to make the same ones repeatedly.” Hannah Palmer scored 31 points as In his first game of the season, Blake Liberi scored the Lady Panthers knocked West- 15 points for Westport as Hudson Stephens added port out of the ranks of the unbeat- 10, Edward Nesbitt 6, Will Napper 5, Kaleb Pettit ens Dec. 14.

William T. Brown

TICONDEROGA | On Dec. 14, 2018, Specialist William (Liam) T. Brown abruptly passed away. Even though his earthly mission was cut short, his spirit is now assigned to his new permanent duty station in heaven. Specialist Brown is now assigned to the elite group of heroes who came before him; his mission to watch over his family, loved ones and to guide and protect those who still serve this day. Born July 27, 1981 in Ticonderoga, he also resided in Carlisle and in Hampton, New Hampshire. After graduating high school, he joined the Army’s chemical battalion. He received multiple decorations after serving

tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. Upon returning home, Liam received a combat retirement. Liam returned to Ticonderoga to be closer to his family. Liam had a passion for playing organs. He was a former choir director for the Catholic Church and performed at the Episcopal Church regularly. Liam worked on channeling his life’s experiences into music. He is survived by his father, William J. Brown, of Putnam Station; his mother Claire H. Brown, of Ticonderoga; his sister Katherine A. Rasmus, of Mineville; his step-mother Angela A. Brown, of Putnam Station; his brother-in-law Andrew Rasmus, of Mineville; and grandmother Joan Hier. Liam is predeceased by his paternal grandparents, Newton and Jean Brown, and his maternal grandfather Leonard Hier. Viewing will be held at Wilcox and Regan Funeral home, Ticonderoga on Friday, Dec. 21 from 4-5:30 p.m. with a service and mili-

tauket, Atlast’s Demolition in Smithtown and later with Suffolk County as a crane operator. Fred moved to Crown Point in 1989 with his wife, Lynn where he worked for the Town of Crown Point, then International Paper and as the commissioner of public works for Essex County for 19 years. He was a commissioner for Crown Point Fire Department as well as president of New York State College Health Association over the years. Fred was presently working with GPI in business development and marketing. Fred enjoyed boating, fishing on Lake Champlain and tending to his garden. Those who have given of themselves to others will live forever in every single heart they have touched. Fred has touched the lives of many and will be greatly missed. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, a donation be made to a charity of their choice. ■

tary honors following. A burial will be conducted in the spring. A reception will follow at the Knights of Columbus hall, all of Liam’s friends and family are welcome to join. In lieu of flowers, please send donations in Liam’s name to either Stratton VA Medical Center, 113 Holland Ave., Albany, NY 12208, attn:voluntary services or soldieron.org a notfor-profit helping homeless vets.
