‘Classic domestic violence that escalated’ Bengü Beachley, killed Jan. 23, was denied protective order By Liam Bowman

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

Bengü Beachley, the Bealeton schoolteacher found fatally shot with her ex-husband, John Beachley, in an “apparent murder-suicide” Jan. 23, last year sought a protective order against him, citing a history of threatening and harassing behavior. But a judge denied the request in August 2021. The shooting came just six days after she was granted a divorce. Bengü Beachley was 38 years old. Bengü Beachley’s mother, Semra Metin, 63, also suffered multiple gunshot wounds in Sunday night’s shooting. On Jan. 26, as she was recovering at INOVA Fairfax Hospital, she recalled the shooting to the Fauquier Times through a Turkish-language interpreter. She said that her former son-inlaw had a history of threatening behavior that eventually escalated to

Metin, who lives in Istanbul but frequently visits her daughter in Virginia, said she and her daughter were out at a movie theater on Jan. 23. When they returned home and backed the car into the garage on Hancock Street, John Beachley was waiting for them. He then “pulled a gun out and said something to Bengü,” Metin recalled, at which point “Bengü turned to [Metin], asked for the phone, because she thought that he was just going to scare them again … and he just started shooting.” See BEACHLEY, page 4

Community remembers beloved teacher By Liam Bowman

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

On a frigid Wednesday evening, just three days after Bengü Beachley was shot to death in her Bealeton home Jan. 23, more than 200 people gathered around a community gazebo near the schoolteacher’s house

to hold a vigil in her memory. The crowd, which included Beachley’s neighbors, friends, students and fellow teachers, lit candles, sang and shared memories of the woman who had touched their lives. See VIGIL, page 4

Republicans line up to challenge Wexton By Coy Ferrell

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

The Supreme Court of Virginia signed off on redistricting maps maps Dec. 10. Since then, 10 people have announced or confirmed their intention to seek the Republican Party nomination this year for the newly reconfigured 10th Congressional District; an additional GOP candidate has already

dropped out. Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-Leesburg) currently holds the seat, although she is being challenged for her party’s nomination. (See accompanying box.) The 10th District Republican Committee will hold a party-run “firehouse primary” on Saturday, May 21, the committee announced last week. Republicans held a convention in Winchester to select their 10th District

nominee in 2020. In 2018, the district committee opted for an open primary election. The 10th District now includes all of Loudoun, Fauquier and Rappahannock counties, the cities of Manassas and Manassas Park, most of Prince William County and a small portion of Fairfax County. The district formerly See 10TH DISTRICT, page 8

Webert-sponsored bills would add additional state-level checks on solar farms By Peter Cary

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

Two new bills before the Virginia state legislature would create more a difficult path for small utility-scale solar farms to navigate in order get their state licenses and would require solar projects to mitigate any harm caused by the use of valuable farmland or destruction of forests. The legislation, sponsored by Del. Michael Webert (R-18th) of Marshall, comes in the form of two bills. House Bill 202 would require solar farms in the 20 mw to 150 mw range to obtain their permits from the State Corporation Commission instead of through the streamlined process with the Department of Environmental Quality they enjoy now. House Bill 206 would require those currently going through the streamlined process to analyze their projects’ likely impacts on wildlife, historic resources, agricultural land and forests and to submit a plan to mitigate any foreseeable harm – plus undergo a 90-day public comment period. “The conversation has been we’re going to go clean energy. That’s the extent of it. Not, ‘How do we get there while preserving our natural resources?’ And that conversation needs to happen,” said Webert in an interview on Monday. The proposed legislation will likely resonate in Fauquier County, where solar proposals have already been defeated because they would have taken up prime agricultural land or created what neighbors said would be eyesores. Four solar farms projects submitted since 2016 are of the size that would be affected by the legislation. Two —sized at 3 mw and 5 mw respectively — were rejected last year, and a third 80 mw project is now in a 90-day hold. The other, a 20 mw Dominion Energy solar array south of Remington, was approved in 2017. Solar projects must undergo a staged approval process at the county level. In most cases, they are first reviewed by the planning commission to determine whether they are in accordance with the county’s comprehensive plan. If they make it over that hurdle, they proceed to the board of supervisors to be considered for a special exception to the zoning rules. A new state law, however, requires that applicants first meet with county officials to hash out a set of monetary givebacks and other promises that the solar facility would hand the county in exchange for its approval. If approved by the county, an applicant would then apply for a state permit. Current law allows projects under 150 mw to get their approval from the Virginia DEQ in a process called “permit by rule” or PBR. Webert called the permit-by-rule process “essentially a giant checklist.” Projects greater than 150 mw must obtain their permits from the State Corporation Commission; it’s generally thought to be a more time consum-

ing and rigorous process. Webert’s House Bill 202 would lower the threshold for the SCC review, requiring any project greater than 20 mw – a size likely to take up about 200 acres of land – to get its permit from the SCC. “These projects are going to affect over 200 acres, and I believe it should go through the SCC process, not just a checklist. The PBR system, the major issues with it, are a lack of input and a lack of resources,” he said. For those projects that still qualify for the PBR process, his bill would create an advisory panel to help develop criteria to determine a project’s impact on wildlife, historic properties, farm soils, or forests and to create guidelines for mitigation of such harm. The result, said Webert, would be more environmental scrutiny and more public input on the project. He said it would bring Virginia’s laws into line with those of northeastern states. For instance, he said Vermont required solar installations of more than 20 megawatts to go through a regulatory process, not just permit by rule. Not everyone, however, sees the change as an improvement. Jim Orrell of Stantec, Inc., which consults for solar companies, said in his view the permit-byrule process was quite rigorous already, and that requiring small solar projects that currently are permitted that way to go the SCC instead would not make much of a difference in terms of environmental analysis or mitigation. He said, however, that the legislation might jam up the whole permitting process. “Taking it all the way down to 20 megawatts, I would guess, would not be necessarily warmly received,” he said. “It’s not that we haven’t taken projects to the SCC, as well, but that would put a lot more projects on their docket.” Webert said he does expect opposition from some parts of the solar industry, though some members are with him too. He said the red shift in the state legislature in November should help him, and he hopes the bills will find traction among Democrats as well who understand the issues at hand. He is looking for a vote on the bills by Feb. 15. “What we want to do is make sure that the policy of the commonwealth puts solar where we want it and doesn’t necessarily affect our ability to grow our food, or destroy our landscape that people come out to see,” he said.

School children, fellow teachers and neighbors gathered to remember Bengü Beachley three days after she was killed.

Community remembers beloved teacher VIGIL, from page 1 “Bengü will be truly missed in our school,” said Mark Rendell, assistant principal at Grace Miller Elementary School. “She had a great relationship with her students and always went above and beyond.” Beachley had worked as an English as a second language teacher at Grace Miller since 2018. A school bus brought students from the school to the vigil. “Bengü Beachley was a kind-hearted person who made those around her smile,” said Saralyn Aylor, ESL supervisor for Fauquier schools.

Jerry Hull, a teacher who worked with Bengü Beachley at Grace Miller Elementary, sang “Keep me in your heart,” by Warren Zevon.

Photographs of Bengü Beachley were blown up to remember the Bealeton school teacher.

“She was always looking for ways to brighten someone’s day with a laugh or a ‘small treat.’ We all miss her dearly.” Neighbors of Beachley remembered her as a woman who seemed to always be smiling. “Her happy, bubbly personality was contagious,” said Candace Hicks, a neighbor of Beachley’s who spoke at the vigil. “She was a consistent reminder that there are great people in this world.” Hicks added: “We are shocked, scared and angered at what took her from us. Unfortunately, domestic violence is an all-too-common

problem in this world.” The vigil was organized by Nikki Butler, another neighbor of Beachley’s in the Mintbrook neighborhood of Bealeton. “I thought it would be so great if we could come together” to celebrate her life, said Butler. “It was beautiful. Each light—it was like one person who Bengü touched,” she said of the vigil. There was a “sea of people who knew and cared about her.” Beachley’s funeral was held Monday, Jan. 31 at the Diyanet Center of America in Lanham, Maryland. Jennifer Swanson, a close friend of Beachley’s who was in attendance, said that Beachley’s body is now being returned to Turkey for burial. Beachley’s mother, Semra Metin, who was injured in the same shooting, has been discharged from INOVA Fairfax Hospital, said Swanson. Metin’s “wounds are healing,” Swanson said, and will likely return to her home in At the vigil, notes from children to their teacher were Turkey soon. hung around the gazebo.

Bengü Beachley, killed Jan. 23, was denied protective order BEACHLEY, from page 1 Fauquier sheriff’s deputies responded to the shooting at 8:44 p.m. and found Metin at the rear of the house, according to a search warrant affidavit. Deputies then approached the open garage and found Bengü Beachley, dead from apparent gunshot wounds, inside a gray Mazda sedan inside the garage. John Beachley, also dead from gunshot wounds, was lying on the garage floor next to the car. Deputies found a handgun on the ground near his body, the affidavit said. Metin told detectives that John Beachley had “fired the handgun, striking Bengü and [her] with several bullets, and then shot himself,” according to the affidavit.

Protective order denied

On April 18, 2021, Bengü Beachley filed an emergency protective order, alleging that her “soon-to-be-exhusband” had repeatedly threatened and harassed her since their separation the previous year. She found a tracking device on her car earlier that day, she told police, according to the criminal complaint filed with the protective order request. “When I moved out of John’s home, he left a gun with a note that

said ‘loaded,’” the April 18 complaint said. “He placed it on top of the summons for divorce paperwork … and the message he was trying to give was clear. “I always lived in his house full of fear due to the extremely high number of guns he had,” the complaint continued, “and even though I got cameras installed in my current place, I still don’t feel safe, knowing how unstable he gets when he consumes alcohol, how he throws things around, such as alcohol bottles, or punches walls.” She also stated in the complaint that on several occasions she saw John Beachley stalking her in her Bealeton neighborhood, even though she’d never shared her new address with him. In a November 2020 emergency call, Bengü Beachley reported to police that her ex-husband had stolen her purse from her new house, according to records from the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office. Bengü Beachley’s emergency protective order expired after three days, after which she was granted a preliminary protective order, pending a hearing. Her request for a full protective order against John Beachley was denied in August 2021

by former Judge Greg Ashwell, according to documents from Fauquier Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court. Ashwell, through a representative, said that he cannot comment on past judicial rulings. Bengü and John Beachley had married in August 2015 and lived together in a home on Reeves Court in Warrenton, but the couple separated at the end of March 2020, court filings show. On June 2, 2020, Bengü Beachley filed for divorce, stating in a filing that her husband had been “abusive and cruel” to her and had “verbally and mentally abused [her] numerous times while drinking excessively.” John Beachley denied these claims in court documents. John Beachley’s behavior was “classic domestic violence that escalated,” said Jennifer Swanson, a close friend of Bengü Beachley’s. “The more the woman gets away from the man, the more the man responds. Bengü took all the precautions … and he just kept responding.” Swanson, a language instructor based in Falls Church, first met Bengü Beachley as a graduate student at Virginia International University in 2011. The two became

close friends over the next ten years. “She was just so funny and beautiful and smart and clever,” Swanson said. She was “always helping people, always making people laugh and bringing people together.” Bengü Beachley viewed her divorce as a clean start, Swanson and another friend said. But she decided to stay in the area, because it “was her dream to live and work here.” Beachley had worked as an Englishas-a-second-language teacher at Grace Miller Elementary School in Bealeton since 2018.

Online fundraiser

Following the shooting, Swanson started a GoFundMe page to raise money for Metin’s medical expenses and the cost of returning Bengü Beachley’s remains to her native Turkey to be buried. As of press time Tuesday, the page had raised nearly $35,000. “People have been amazing in their outpouring,” said Swanson. “I knew they would be, because that’s Bengü’s” impact. Swanson said that Bengü Beachley’s family in Turkey is making funeral arrangements; Metin will be returning to Turkey soon. Liam Bowman may be reached at lbowman@fauquier.com

Warrenton moves to hire new legal counsel By Coy Ferrell

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

The Town of Warrenton has entered contract negotiations with a law firm to represent its legal interests. Without specifying a reason for doing so, part-time Town Attorney Whit Robinson announced Dec. 15 that he would resign effective March 31. He has represented the town council for 18 years. The council voted 6-1 at a Jan. 25 special session to direct the town manager to begin negotiating a short-term contract with Vanderpool, Frostick & Nichanian, a Manassas-based firm that has attorneys who specialize in providing legal services to local governments. Council members expressed openness to making the arrangement permanent

“Let me just say how much we look forward to working with this firm. They bring everything to the table we need.” WARRENTON MAYOR CARTER NEVILL

after a “trial period” lasting about six months. The firm would do “all the things we are currently involved in, and more,” said Councilman James Hartman (Ward 4) at the special session. Hartman met with the firm’s lead attorney, Martin Crim. “Not only did he answer questions — he offered solutions,” Hartman said.

“Let me just say how much we look forward to working with this firm,” said Mayor Carter Nevill after the meeting. “They bring everything to the table we need.” Nevill said that a resolution will be on the council’s Feb. 8 agenda that would direct Robinson to hand over all legal documents to VF&N. Robinson will continue to be paid through March 31. Employing the firm’s services would mean cost savings for town taxpayers. Robinson is paid a $11,500-per-month fee for his services. In addition, the town budgets nearly $1,600 per month for healthcare expenses. VF&N would charge a flat $10,000 fee for its services, according to a proposal dated Jan. 24, saving the town about $3,000 per month. See COUNSEL, page 6

Warrenton moves to hire new legal counsel COUNSEL, from page 5 Contracting with VF&N would also mean that separate functions of the town attorney’s office would be carried about by separate people. Crim would represent the town during meetings and for “general municipal questions,” according to the Jan. 24 proposal. Bradley Marshall, a former Prince William County prosecutor, would represent the town in court for misdemeanor and traffic cases. Kristina Spitler would represent the town in litigation and employment matters. Finally, Olan Simmons, who specializes in land-use and other municipal matters, would act as a backup to Crim. Hartman said that this arrangement is especially appealing. “The attorney representing council was also prosecuting cases [in court],” Hartman said about the model during Robinson’s tenure. “It’s a strange relationship. That person should not be the same person.” Hartman said that contracting VP&N as soon as possible would end “the debacle we’ve put ourselves through lately,” though he declined to be more specific. Councilman Bill Semple (Ward 2) also supported moving forward with a contract with

VF&N. “You’re lucky to find someone with these high-level skills available … I saw this [proposal] and I said, ‘This is a no brainer, and least in the short run.’” Vanderpool, Frostick & Nichanian employs a total of 20 attorneys and currently provides legal representation to Culpeper, Occoquan, Dumfries, Haymarket, Middleburg and Manassas. While VF&N would take care of routine “general contract review, agenda management, legal ads and notification compliance as well as other minor matters that arise like redistricting and land use cases,” there are still other matters that will require the use of specialized outside legal counsel, Town Manager Brandie Schaeffer explained Tuesday. The town council has budgeted $177,500 for outside counsel during the current fiscal year, although Schaeffer emphasized that the full budgeted amount has not been spent. “Those are some placeholder numbers related to some initiatives of council,” Schaeffer said. To date, only $11,393 has been spent. One of those initiatives, said Schaeffer, is a major effort to overhaul the town’s ordinance to bring it into compliance with state laws passed over the

years — that contract is capped at $45,000. Other legal expenses have come as the town attempts to enforce its property maintenance and zoning codes in specific legal cases. Still other costs have come as the council seeks to expand town limits by negotiating a boundary line adjustment with the county, although actual expenses have totaled less than $5,000 as of this week as of this week, out of a total approved budget of $30,000. Nevill added that pursuing a contract with VF&N may help control in the future some costs associated with the need to bring in outside legal counsel. “These costs associated with outside legal counsel were a very important factor in council’s decision whether to continue with an independent or in-house town attorney,” he said. “We saw how other towns had been able to realize cost savings in their legal budgets by contracting with Vanderpool, Frostick, & Nishanian, given their breadth and depth of legal expertise, and we certainly look forward to working with them to bring these efficiencies and cost savings to Warrenton,” said Nevill.

Bealeton woman indicted on murder charge after allegedly killing husband with vehicle By Liam Bowman

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

A Bealeton woman accused of killing her husband by striking him with her vehicle was indicted Monday on one count of second-degree murder. A jury trial is now scheduled to take place in December. She remains in custody without bond.

On Aug. 8, 2021, Kimberly Dragich, 56, allegedly “accelerated rapidly” while driving a Honda CR-V and struck her husband, Brian Bowles, on a residential street in the Mintbrook subdivision, according to a search warrant affidavit filed by a Fauquier detective. Bowles died the following day in a Fairfax hos-

pital, the sheriff’s office said at the time. One witness “reported that she received a text message from [Dragich] prior to the incident in which [Dragich] references potentially killing her husband,” according to the same affidavit. Another witness “ran after the vehicle and

identified the driver as Kimberly Dragich” immediately following the incident, the affidavit alleged. The affidavit filed with her arrest alleged that she told detective that Bowles had “stepped into the roadway” before she struck him with the vehicle. “[Dragich] stated she See DRAGICH, page 7

DRAGICH, from page 6 stepped on the accelerator, wanting him to move. Witnesses stated the vehicle accelerated rapidly and struck Mr. Bowles, driving over him and then driving away,” the complaint continued. When deputies responded to the scene, they found Bowles lying in the roadway. Dragich allegedly also told deputies that she had been drinking on the night of the incident and agreed to submit to a preliminary breath test, according to the criminal complaint filed with her arrest on the morning of Aug. 9. Dragich’s blood-alcohol content was measured at 0.1%, the complaint said;

it was later it was measured at 0.08%, which is the threshold in Virginia for driving while intoxicated. Initially, Dragich Kimberly was charged Dragich with driving while intoxicated and malicious wounding, but prosecutors later dropped those charges. The four-day jury trial on the second-degree murder charge is scheduled to take place beginning Dec. 19, in Fauquier County Circuit Court.

Republicans line up to challenge Wexton 10TH DISTRICT, from page 1 included all of Loudoun, Clarke and Frederick counties, the cities of Winchester, Manassas and Manassas Park, along with portions of Prince William and Fairfax counties. Wexton first won her seat in 2018, a wave year for Democrats, defeating incumbent Republican Barbara Comstock. Wexton was re-elected in 2020 by a 13-point margin; her party’s presidential candidate, Joe Biden, won the district by 19 points. Based on the results of the 2016 presidential election, the new district boundaries also put Democrats at an advantage; Democrat Hillary Clinton won by 7 percentage points in 2016 among voters within the new district boundaries.

More vehicles now eligible for ‘high mileage’ tax break

PHOTO COURTESY OF FAUQUIER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF FIRE, RESCUE AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT

About 21 rescue personnel responded to a report of a kayaker who capsized in the icy waters of Germantown Lake. (The large metal structure is a part of the dam system on the lake roughly 50 feet from shore.)

Kayaker capsizes on frozen Germantown Lake By Robin Earl

Vehicles kept in Fauquier County no longer need to exceed 100,000 miles to qualify for the ‘high mileage’ property tax break program. Effective Jan. 1, eligibility now starts at 10,000 miles for the 2022 model year, increasing to 165,000 miles for vehicles made from 2003 to 2008. Documentation from a third party, like a state inspection or service provider, may be submitted ppt@fauquiercounty.gov; the mailing address is P.O. Box 149, Warrenton, Va. 20188. To qualify for a high-milage adjustment, a record of the vehicle’s milage must exist before Jan. 1 of the tax year. Motorcycles, motor homes, buses and large trucks do not qualify for high-mileage tax relief. Commissioner of the Revenue Eric Maybach

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

A kayaker was rescued at C.M. Crockett Park in Midland Jan. 29 after capsizing in a frozen lake. Rescue units from Catlett, Remington, Lois and Orlean contributed, according to Michael E. Gillam Jr., assistant fire chief for Fauquier County Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency Management. The kayaker was doing an inspection on a portion of Germantown Lake when his kayak capsized, leaving him in the freezing water, said Gilliam. Two boats, one from Catlett and one from Orlean, were dispatched at about noon. Both stations have swift water boats and ice rescue gear for these events. Twenty-one men and women responded to the incident. “Many of our responders are specifically trained for ice rescue emergencies,” said Gillam. He added that the victim was not submerged for more than a few minutes and did not seek medical attention, “just some active warming in a medic unit.”

said Friday that the move is meant to offset the surging prices of used cars, which may lead to higher personal property tax bills. “I’m just trying to do what’s fair with the crazy prices,” said Maybach. International supply-chain issues — especially affecting the microchips necessary for any modern vehicle — have caused a shortage of new vehicles, in turn causing prices for used vehicles to surge 20% to 30% over the past year, according to several studies of the national market. Questions should be directed to the revenue commissioner’s office, which can be reached at 540-422-8149.

Person extricated from car after crash At about 10:30 p.m. on Jan. 25, volunteers and career responders from Warrenton and Remington volunteer fire departments were alerted about a traffic crash with entrapment at James Madison Highway/Lees Mill Road south of Warrenton. A car had struck a flat trailer

just in front of the rear axles. One person was trapped in the car. The challenging extrication was completed in just over 20 minutes. The patient was removed safely from the vehicle and transported to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

A patient was extricated from this car by a team from the Warrenton Volunteer Fire Company.

Five injured in U.S. 17 crash One person was flown to a trauma center after a two-vehicle crash on U.S. 17 on Jan. 27.

The evening of Jan. 27, volunteers and career emergency workers from The Plains and Warrenton volunteer fire companies responded to a car crash with entrapment on Winchester Road near Sky Meadow

State Park. Units arrived to find five people injured, with one trapped. The patient was freed by emergency units on the scene. One person was flown to a trauma center and four were taken to a local hospital.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Governor’s tip line is the definition of divisive

A theory on why people will not get vaccinated for COVID

On Jan. 25, Gov. Glenn Youngkin established a “tip line” for parents to alert his office about educators engaged in teaching “divisive” subjects, primarily our nation’s history of slavery and overt racism. It is the definition of divisive and ironically, will create more divisiveness between Virginia parents and educators. This on the heels of a pandemic that has taken such a terrible toll on our school system, parents and students. How will the Youngkin administration review tips for substance and accuracy? Who is deemed qualified to decide on acceptable content? Are we now a state that promotes censorship and state-authorized propaganda? The whitewashing of our nation’s history is, in fact, propaganda. If this tip line doesn’t frighten you, it should, regardless of your political persuasion. You might ask yourself where this will stop, how the data will be used, and how “renegade” educators will be silenced and held accountable. Are we going to suspend or fire them? We have a shortage of educators due to the toll of this pandemic – Fauquier County is currently short of 40 teachers -- so this would have devastating consequences for Virginia public schools. Here is the message that I submitted to the Youngkin tip line, and I hope many readers will consider sending a similar message of support for our Virginia educators -- and those in Fauquier County, in particular: I am writing to the tip line to commend Virginia educators and our education system. Unlike, Gov. Youngkin, I believe in the value of presenting an accurate, comprehensive accounting of our nation’s history and its enduring impact today. Our children deserve nothing less. The ability to understand history, recognize mistakes and injustice, compare the past to the present and envision a stronger and better U.S. society is of tremendous import for all communities throughout our country.” Both of my children were educated in Fauquier County public schools. One is now a senior NICU nurse engaged in saving vulnerable infants daily. The other has recently attained her PhD in American Studies from Boston University and is employed by Harvard University. Proof positive, in both cases, of Virginia’s superior public education system. As a Virginia citizen and a supporter of public education in our county and state, I ask that you immediately terminate this politically motivated, highly offensive tip line.

Bravo, Dr. Swift (“Straight talk about how we can help one another get through the pandemic,” Fauquier Times, Jan. 5), Andrea [Martens] (“Last week’s letter about COVID spread misinformation,” Fauquier Times, Jan. 26), Leo [Schefer] (“Unvaccinated may have been misinformed by social media,” Fauquier Times, Jan. 26) and Harriet [Hodgkin] (“Nurse speaks from personal experience: Masks and vaccinations work,” Fauquier Times, Jan. 26) for providing well-reasoned comments about the COVID pandemic and the vaccine. And thank you, Charlie [Fitzgerald] (“COVID ‘facts’ presented by physician open to debate,” Fauquier Times, Jan. 19) for providing your point of view. I don’t agree with it, except for one point: The response at the beginning of the pandemic was a disaster, and we are still paying for that lack of responsible leadership to this day. With only 67% of the Fauquier County population fully vaccinated, my concern is trying to figure out why a large percentage of our intelligent, responsible, hard-working neighbors refuse to get vaccinated. I have scoured social media, and I believe I’ve done it. In my opinion, there are only four reasons that explain it. The first category I call “true anti-vaxxers.” If you’ve only come out as an anti-COVID-vaxxer, that doesn’t count. True anti-vaxxers are life-long anti-vaxxers, and they boldly refuse to let their children get any vaccinations – in spite of the fact that most of them, as children, had that benefit. I calculate that this category is the smallest percentage, say 10% of the total unvaccinated population. The next group is the “paranoid/conspiracy theorist” folks. For them, the pandemic may have been cooked up as a strategy to undermine our former president’s reelection, so the vaccine is unnecessary. The reports of COVID infections and deaths may be made up. They believe the 2020 election was a fraud, and Jan. 6, if it happened at all, was just a peaceful protest that’s been exaggerated by the media.

No matter the subject, you can’t convince the members of this group that the universe isn’t against them. My analysis says they make up 30% of the unvaccinated population. The third group refuse to get vaccinated for political reasons. It’s a matter of principle since getting vaccinated doesn’t align with their favorite politicians’ or Fox News star performers’ rhetoric. Reality doesn’t matter. What matters is solidarity with their political party. Their motto: “Nobody’s gonna make me get a vaccine (or wear a mask) no matter how much sense it makes, dammit!” In my opinion, they make up about 40% of the unvaccinated population. The last group holds the vast majority of unvaccinated Americans. They won’t get the vaccine because they are afraid of the needle. Sixty percent of the unvaccinated folks in America, according to my extensive research on social media, are just simply afraid of getting stuck. There isn’t much we can do to convince the first three groups to get vaccinated. The last group, though, I can help. Go ahead and make your appointment to get vaccinated. When the day arrives, put some relaxing music on the radio and hum along as you drive to the site. If there’s a line inside, continue humming to yourself while you wait. Avoid eye contact. Finally, when you sit in the chair to get your shot, don’t look at or acknowledge the person giving it. Instead, start singing, as loudly as you can, the “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” It will be over with before you reach the chorus. It’s your right, of course, to sing the entire song if you want. There are six verses (assuming my internet search provided reliable data). I hope this helps you to understand your family, friends and neighbors who are unvaccinated. I’m sorry the percentages don’t add up. Neither do the reasons for not getting vaccinated. JEFF WALLACE Warrenton

Dr. Colin Greene’s advice on masks leaves Fauquier school children vulnerable “Let us spray.” These words are rumored to have been muttered by one of Dr. Samuel Lister’s students when Lister used a carbolic acid spray, revolutionizing the concept of the sterile surgical field. I’m sure the former acting director of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Health District [and current acting Virginia commissioner of health], Dr. Colin Greene and obvious “expert” in germ theory remembers reading this from his medical school days. Maybe even high school. People thought Lister was nuts. But he showed that germs in the air can cause infections. Modern hospitals have specialized filtration systems, a filter -- like a cloth mask -- to prevent germs from reaching the inner sanctum of the hospital operating rooms. They have negative pressure systems. All these crazy inventions to reduce the likelihood of catching disease. Which brings us to masks. A little piece of cloth to help reduce -- not stop -- the probability of catching disease. My kids both come home from school with sore noses. Neither of them wears glasses, but I do, and I get the fogging

issue, reduced effectiveness and dirt. These are problems that can be overcome, but risk everyone’s health? Full disclosure: One of my kids has at least one of the underlying conditions that crazed liberals like me worry about. Dr. Greene, in the not-too-distant past: “Greene told the [Rappahannock] school board it would be ‘risky’ to completely forgo masking as the infectious omicron variant spreads through the state.” (https://www.rappnews.com/ news/health/former-director-of-rappahannocks-health-district-tapped-by-youngkin-to-leadstate-agency-in/article_3f759b06-7fcd-11ec-9f4c3b56afd0d546.html) Since then, he has changed his tune as easily as someone could change their soiled mask. As thin as an invisible mask on his political veneer, Dr. Greene, Col., U.S. Army (Ret.), changed his mind. “I respectfully remind all health directors that VDH is an executive agency, under the leadership, oversight and discipline of the governor … Compliance with the word and intent of this executive order on the part of any VDH employee is not

optional.” (https://www.fauquier.com/news/statehealth-commissioner-compliance-with-youngkin-smask-order-is-not-optional/article_303e860e-809811ec-a677-ebfe59481440.html) What? Me worry? Like Alfred E. Neuman from Mad magazine of yore, Dr. Greene worries not. I think that the doctor is looking at the reduction of cases in the area and the U.S. in general, and is gambling that he’ll look right after all is said and done. Kudos to him so far, and I hope to God he’s right. People who have kids with type 1 diabetes are bearing the risk of your calculus on their and their parents’ backs. There are other underlying conditions, and you, being a family doctor, know about them. And that brings me to Danté’s Inferno, and I know you’ve read it. There is a special place reserved for you, the Ninth Circle I think it is. All because of a stupid mask. ANDREW HERSTEK Warrenton

OPINION

Fauquier Times | www.fauquier.com | February 2, 2022

Substantial Risk Order may have prevented death of Bealeton teacher The recent murder of a beloved local teacher and serious injury to her mother by someone who should not have had access to a firearm is a tragedy that happens over and over in our society. I hope we are all holding this woman’s family in our hearts and fighting to end domestic violence and to shame and change men who believe they have a right to threaten and murder women. While I would like to thank the Fauquier Times for their reporting as this story unfolds and we learn more about the very specific threats this murderer made and the protective order the victim filed against him, I am writing to correct some

misinformation shared in comments on this story online. A protective order, if it had been granted, would have prevented the violent ex-husband from purchasing more firearms, if he had tried to purchase them from a licensed dealer who ran a background check. But according to reporting on his ex-wife’s reasons for seeking the protective order, her abuser already owned many firearms, would regularly drink too heavily and would regularly explicitly threaten to shoot her. He wouldn’t need to purchase more; he already had an arsenal. And a history of serious abuse. The new Substantial Risk Order

Former sheriff thanks community as he moves on to state role I am humbled to have served as your sheriff for the past six years. I want to thank you for the life-changing opportunity and for the faith you entrusted in me as sheriff. As you know, several days ago I was called and asked to serve as secretary of public safety and homeland security for the Commonwealth of Virginia in Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s administration. [Mosier is awaiting a confirmation hearing on his new position.] It was a difficult decision to step away from my leadership position as your sheriff, but my faith was instrumental in guiding me to this new path for my life. Knowing the senior command staff at the sheriff’s office is completely ready to continue to keep everyone safe and to continue running the agency made the decision possible. In my first term as sheriff, we changed the way law enforcement was practiced, by pursuing full accreditation through the Virginia Law Enforcement Professional Standards Commission. Accreditation was one of our first goals, which we received in those first four years. It brought a new accountability and transparency to the way we now routinely practice law enforcement in Fauquier County. We emphasized the necessity of community policing by engaging our community in dialogues through town hall meetings, the Sheriff’s Advisory Board and an

Submitting letters to the editor

open-door policy, which enabled any resident to meet with our commanders and myself. Our second major goal was professional development for our deputies and commanders. We have concentrated on requiring many forms of educational and leadership development such as access to the FBI National Academy for Commanders, promoting formal education for all and offering the Institute for Credible Leadership Development classes for all. I am extremely proud of the men and women of the sheriff’s office, who risk their lives every day protecting us all. I am confident that all of these positive changes will continue because we cannot afford to go back to the way policing once was because the types of crime have changed and increased. Crime throughout the country continues to rise, and we have to continually update and change our methods, with the community’s help. My wife Cindy and I believe the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office will continue to thrive. It is a model to be proud of because of your support. Again, thank you for your trust in me over the years. I firmly believe the men and women of the sheriff’s office will continue to make us all proud. ROBERT P. MOSIER Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security Office of the Governor

that went into law in 2020 allows law enforcement to intervene in exactly this kind of case, to remove all firearms immediately from someone who has shown he is a danger to himself or others. The SRO should be automatically initiated when the protection order request includes firearm threats. It is not clear yet why that was not done in this case. No later than 14 days after an SRO is granted and all firearms are removed, the owner will have a hearing and be able to make their case. The attorney for the commonwealth must prove by clear and convincing evidence that the person poses a substantial risk of personal injury to himself or to other individuals in the near future by such person’s possession or acquisition of a firearm. The SRO must be renewed with another hearing every six months. This protects firearm owners against false claims. Saying this is a mental health problem and that we should teach our children better is really unhelpful to women who are being threatened right now by a violent adult. The pandemic has absolutely increased mental health issues for our entire population, and murders are soaring. While our country must do better to help and support those living with a mental health condition, our weak gun laws enable easy access to guns by people with

a demonstrated history of dangerous behavior, and we need a tool to temporarily remove access to firearms from those in a time of crisis. That’s what the Virginia SRO law does: empower law enforcement who recognize warning signs of future violence — which often have nothing to do with mental illness — to take action before it’s too late. A recent FBI report on active shooters found that warning signs of violence unrelated to mental health were present in the vast majority of active shooter cases: Nearly 90% of shooters had a history of abusive or violent behavior. “If you see something, say something” has become a mantra to deter terrorism. This man terrorized his wife, and when she left him, he killed her. To everyone in the comments urging women to arm themselves in self-defense, let’s also disarm men in self-defense, when that man has shown he can’t be trusted with a weapon. Why are we still making it easier for a man to murder than for a woman to live in safety?

DARN YOU, MOTHER NATURE Lost wrestling time casts uncertainty on Friday’s district wrestling championships By Fred Hodge

Special to the Fauquier Times

Last season it was the COVID-19 pandemic severely curtailing sports events. This season a parade of winter storms has cost wrestling a shockingly large portion of matches and canceled numerous practices. With the Northwestern District wrestling tournament Friday at Sherando, very little time remains to compensate. “You can’t get any momentum going,” lamented Kettle Run coach Mike Foy, whose Cougars have had four tournament appearances canceled, costing his kids dearly. “That’s up to 20 matches,” Foy added. “Besides COVID last year, this is the least amount of matches my wrestlers have ever had. Typically, by this time we have 40-some matches. “This year, we have 20. It’s ridiculous.” The same issues exist at Liberty, the defending Class 4 state champion, according to coach Wes Hawkins. “[The weather] has done its fair share of taking things away from us,” he said with a laugh. The Eagles lost three events to the snow and ice. The biggest disappointment was this past weekend when a trip to a large tournament at Orange County High School vaporized. “That was a big one for us, It was going to set us up for the tournament,” Hawkins said, explaining the field included several high caliber programs like Class 6 Robinson. That event would have challenged his best wrestlers. He said the Eagles lost approximately 15 matches off their slate, affecting the progression of his younger wrestlers.

Fauquier 126-pounder Cam Hooks (right) battles against Sherando in a dual meet last week. Fauquier star Kingsley Menifee is favored to win the 182-pound class at Friday’s district meet. “I normally try to have 50 to 55 matches,” Hawkins noted. At Fauquier, coach Chad Hoffman says the key is rolling with the punches with a mixed group of veterans and newcomers. “It’s never easy to miss practice time, but we adapted and overcame that adversity,” he said of extending the length of practices when they could be held to compensate for the lost time. Hoffman lauded his wrestlers for their focus and progress in recent weeks, adding he is not frustrated. “Just more understanding of where we are as a program,” he stated. “We will get back to where we need to be. It just may take longer than we would like.” With only four days of preparation remaining, there is only one course to follow, Foy said. “You just have to stick with very basic fundamentals. There’s just no time left for further teaching,” he stressed. “There’s nothing else you can do.”

Liberty is defending state champ, but Sherando may be tournament favorite By Fred Hodge

Special to the Fauquier Times

There are different focal points for the three county schools at Friday’s district wrestling meet. Friday’s top four place winners in each of the 14 weight classes advance to the Feb. 12 Region 4C tournament at Liberty. Liberty coach Wes Hawkins hopes this postseason opener will begin a trip toward the top prize of winning a second straight title. Hawkins notes the district team title picture is a bit murky. His Eagles certainly are contenders, yet host Sherando will mount a formidable challenge. “I’m not counting my guys out,” he began. “It’s up in the air, but if I had to say, Sherando would be the front runner. Matchups are going to be big.” Kettle Run coach Mike Foy concurs with Sherando having an edge.

“[The Warriors] have a solid team up and down,” he said. The 2021 Liberty team showed not winning the district does not eliminate chances to reach the state’s highest level. Liberty was third in the district and second in the region before being crowned state champions with only a fiveman crew remaining. The team trophy is important, but Foy listed another focus every team will have Friday. “The big expectation is to get as many as possible to our regionals. Get another week of wrestling for them,” Foy said. How can the teams satisfy those hopes? Fauquier’s Chad Hoffman has a prescription. “I expect our kids to go out there and wrestle with the mentality to win for themselves and their team,” he said. “All I ask is to wrestle with toughness, energy and effort.”

‘NO ONE WANTS TO FACE US’ Hot Gohlmann leads Kettle Run boys over James Wood 63-47 By Peter Brewington

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

FAUQUIER TIMES STAFF PHOTO/COY FERRELL

Damien Sirisena (No. 0) and the Kettle Run Cougars are locked in a tight battle with Liberty and James Fowler (No. 5) for third place in the Northwestern District. The local rivals meet Friday in Bealeton.

Anyone watching the recent NFL playoffs knows how accurate pro field goal kickers are these days. They’re money from any distance. Just like Kettle Run senior guard Cooper Gohlmann on Monday. An equal opportunity marksman, Gohlmann drilled six 3-pointers – three from the right side and three from the left – in a 63-47 boys basketball win over James Wood. After going 6-for-6, Gohlhman finally misfired from the right corner early in the fourth quarter and shook his head in disappointment, but his 20-point game certainly lifted his team

as the Northwestern District race enters its Millbrook 6-0 final weeks. Sherando 8-1 “Wow! Six! Handley 4-3 Is that what he KETTLE RUN 5-4 had? What’s six LIBERTY 4-4 times three?” James Wood 1-7 said coach FAUQUIER 0-9 Christian Yancey, calculating Gohlmann had at least 18 points. Although Kettle Run (5-4 district, 9-7 overall) held onto a share of third place in the Northwestern District, sixth-place James Wood (1-7) presented problems in the first and second quarters, taking the lead several times at 9-6, 11-8 and 24-23.

Falcon girls fall to district-leading Sherando, 27-26, as race enters final week By Fred Hodge

With one week remaining in the girls basketball regular season, teams still are jockeying for most of the slots in the final Northwestern District standings. Sherando (9-0) and Millbrook (6-0) are battling for the top position, while Fauquier (5-4) and fast-rising James Wood (5-3) duel for the thirdand fourth-place seeds. James Wood recorded an easy 61-29 home win over a foul-plagued Falcon squad earlier. The rematch is set for Monday in Fauquier’s regular-season finale. That victor probably will finish third. Fauquier lost ground with back-to-back losses to Sherando, falling on the road last Thursday, 47-34. The Falcons nearly knocked off the leaders in Monday’s before succumbing, 27-26, despite a game-high 14 points by Makayla Foddrell. Kettle Run, now 2-7, took an important step toward the fifth seed last Thursday behind a

Cougars, Eagles clash Friday BOYS HOOPS, from page 15 But thanks to Gohlmann, who drilled two 3-pointers from the right wing, Kettle Run went on a 10-0 surge to grab a 33-24 lead and 33-26 edge at halftime. Junior guard Jordan Tapscott was also a factor with his defense on James Wood senior Cole Stowers, a 5-foot-11 jump shooter with a textbook release and strong vertical leap. Stowers finished with a game-high 24 points, including 16 in the first half when he was killing the Cougars and caused Yancey to call timeout. “That’s gotta stop,” said Yancey, who assigned Tapscott to shadow him. “We went to a diamond-and-one

Tournament looms

With both district tournament finalists going to regions this year, Kettle Run (5-4) and Liberty (4-4) are hoping to finish the regular season in third, which means they’d dodge league power Millbrook (9-0) in the district semifinal if they got there in two weeks. “We’re not the best team like we thought we’d be. But no one wants to face us,” said Yancey. Recent close losses to Sherando 40-39 and Handley 50-42 have hurt. Kettle Run was slated to face defense. Jordan’s the best defensive player in the district.“ Kettle Run scored the first seven points of the second half to lead 40-26. Jacob Robinson, Tapscott and Kolby

The Eagles fought back to trail 31-28 at halftime as Luke McCaslin drew a charge, followed by a basket by Dakota Lindsay before the buzzer. “That was a huge play by Luke,” said Liberty coach Pat Frazer. “We got the ball at the beginning of the third and really helped us gain the momentum.” The Eagles scored the first four points of the third quarter to lead 3231. A Shepard 3-pointer gave Liberty a 34-32 lead and they never trailed.

Fauquier Community Theatre presents stage adaptation of ‘Shoah’ World premiere of Claude Lanzmann’s Holocaust documentary continues through this weekend By Debra Smyers

Special to the Fauquier Times

Fauquier Community Theatre is currently presenting the world premiere of “Shoah,” a documentary about the Holocaust by Claude Lansmann, adapted for the stage by Dr. Harry Kantrovich. “Shoah” continues through Feb. 6 at the Vint Hill Theatre on the Green, 4225 Aiken Drive, Warrenton. Shoah is another word for the Holocaust and means catastrophic upheaval. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum defines the Holocaust as “the systematic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million European Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators in the years leading up to and during World War II.” Lanzmann shares his interviews and reflections from survivors, witnesses and perpetrators through six vignettes that represent death camps, towns and ghettos -- Chelmno, Auschwitz/Birkenau, Sobibor/Vilna Ghetto, Treblinka, Berlin and Warsaw. Twenty-three actors, led by Michael Clendenin in the role of Claude Lanzmann, portray those who experienced the Holocaust. The survivors stand frozen in shadows on one side of the stage while townspeople and Nazis stand opposite. In between vignettes, powerful photographs from the concentration

camps are projected on the stage. FCT’s music director Matthew Scarborough arranged transcriptions of “Songs of the Ghettoes and Concentration Camps” and cellist Logan Madrid and violinist Kathy Mullen Jackson perform the haunting music. Kantrovich said, “World War II, in particular the Holocaust, is a passion of mine. I lost family in the Holocaust and those that I knew who survived, I could always see the pain in their eyes. It never left. When I first saw Claude Lanzmann’s documentary in 1985, I was mesmerized. As I got more enveloped in the theater, I knew I wanted to adapt the transcript to stage.” Kantrovich has been a member of community, college and professional theatre as an actor, director and writer for more than 50 years. “I

have been part of superb casts and production teams who have given and produced award-winning and nominated performances. No cast or creative and support team can and will ever surpass what they have given here for ‘Shoah.’” The producer for “Shoah” is Don Richardson, who, along with Kantrovich, was instrumental in bringing the world premiere performance to Fauquier Community Theatre. Richardson has volunteered with FCT for almost two decades, playing many roles, on stage and off. Jan. 27 is designated by the United Nations General Assembly as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Since 2005, the UN and its member states have held commemoration ceremonies to mark the an-

OBITUARIES

Fauquier Times | www.fauquier.com | February 2, 2022

OBITUARIES Places of Worship SINGING AT FUNERALS The sound of a human voice can cause an emotional reaction in people, making them feel reassured and soothed. Many people choose to add a live vocal performance to a funeral for these reasons. It is a beautiful and personal tribute to a deceased loved one. Sometimes, loved ones can be too emotional to feel comfortable singing during the service. In these cases, a funeral singer can be beneficial. Professional singers and performers such as choir members, church soloists, and wedding singers often sing at funerals. However, it is best to find someone who has explicit experience singing at funerals. Most performers have a roster of songs from which to choose. Funeral homes and area churches can provide recommendations. The funeral is an experience of value and when properly planned can provide lasting satisfaction and comfort to the survivors. We can assist you in planning and coordinating all of the details and will explain all of the available options. To learn about our funeral services, please call MOSER FUNERAL HOME at (540) 347-3431. We invite you to tour our facility, conveniently located at 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton. We’ll also tell you about our BRIGHT VIEW CEMETERY, just outside of Warrenton. “Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.” Buddha
