Warrenton attorney’s law license suspended John Carter Morgan, Jr. twice previously disciplined by state bar

By Coy Ferrell

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

A three-judge panel in Fauquier County Circuit Court has suspended a Warrenton attorney’s Virginia law license for one year.

The action stems from his participation in a multi-state legal services scheme that the U.S. Department of Justice called a “bankruptcy boiler room” and a “telemarketing referral business” that “preyed upon some of the most vulnerable in our society” — those in severe financial distress.

For his role in the scheme, John Carter Morgan, Jr. is forbidden from practicing law in Virginia until Jan. 25, 2023, a three-judge panel ruled last month.

Stemming from the same misconduct, Morgan had also been barred for 18 months from filing cases U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Virginia following a fourday trial in 2018. That suspension began last year and expires in April 2023. He was also fined $5,000 by the federal court. The judge who presided over the federal misconduct trial said that Morgan was “defiant, unremorseful and wholly lacking in credibility.”

Fauquier High School graduate Vashon “J.J.” Jefferson was one of two police officers killed at Bridgewater College on Feb. 1, according to Virginia State Police. Alexander Wyatt Campbell, 27, allegedly shot and killed John Painter, 55, a Bridgewater Police Department officer and Jefferson, 48, a Bridgewater College Safety officer.

Campbell, of Ashland, Virginia, will be arraigned Feb. 16 at 1 p.m. According to a Virginia State Police spokeswoman, Campbell is being held at the Rockingham County Jail without bond on several serious felony charges, including aggravated murder of a police officer and first-degree murder.

Since the beginning of the school year, students at Claude Thompson Elementary in Rectortown have received daily Spanish-language lessons as part of a bilingual initiative created in partnership with the school system’s English as a Second Language program.

With songs, inventive word games and activities, program leaders hope to expand students’ language skills in an engaging way.

“It’s more of exposing students to something at this point,” said Saralyn See ESL, page 9

In the school division Positive cases since school opened for the 202122 school year: 1,084; 738 in children, 346 in staff Perspective: There are 90 “active” cases in the school division, 54 in students and 36 in staff. People stay on the active list for 10 days after first reporting an infection. It should be noted that students who feel ill may take home tests, but those tests are not counted on the school’s dashboard.

New hospitalizations Virginia: 31 on Tuesday Fauquier: 3 on Tuesday; 60 in December 2021; 89 so far in 2022 New deaths Virginia: 120 Tuesday; 7-day average is 139 Fauquier: 3 on Tuesday; 121 to date Perspective: The VDH reports that there was a delay in reporting of fatalities in January and some of those are still being reported in February.

Noting lower COVID-19 transmission rates, Fauquier Health adjusts its visitation policy Fauquier Health has updated its visitation policy in response to lower COVID-19 transmission rates in the area. The current PCR test positivity rate in the Rappahannock-Rapidan Health District, of which Fauquier is a part, is 23%. Although that is still high for the health district, the rating has dropped considerably since Jan. 10, when it was 41.6%.

Visitation restrictions have been lifted for the Emergency Department, Family Birthing Center and for those visiting patients who have been admitted to the second floor and third floors.

Strict visitation restrictions still apply to other areas within the hospital, including the Intensive Care Unit and all outpatient areas.

Face masks/coverings, health screenings and hand sanitization are required for entry to Fauquier

Hospital. Upon entry into the facility, visitors may expect to receive an approved visitation sticker that must be worn visibly at all times within the facility.

The front entrance will be open Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. At all other times, visitors should use the Emergency Department entrance.

The Villa at Suffield Meadows and Fauquier Health Rehabilitation & Nursing Center are still allowing visitation in approved areas; those interested may call to schedule.

At Fauquier Health physician offices, patients can expect no changes. One visitor may accompany patients during visits where medical assistance of a caregiver is required, the patient is underage or the patient is scheduled for ultrasound visits within the obstetrical clinics.

Growth at the Fauquier Times sparks some personnel changes The new year has brought some changes at the Fauquier Times – positive, welcome changes, with newspaper staff moving up and taking on new responsibilities.

Vincent Sales, page designer, ad builder and IT wunderkind, has been promoted to production manager. Sales has been with the Fauquier Times since April 2019. He has managed the design and production of the weekly Fauquier Times and Prince William Times newspapers, overseen the creation of the print and online ads, and is in charge of the newspapers’ digital editions.

Working remotely and in the office according to the whims of the pandemic, he has designed better ways for the editorial, sales and production departments to stay in touch and work together.

Sales’ work ethic is astounding.

He is unflappable and adjusts equally well to all the different the demands of the newspaper enterprise – from

the production of the “InFauquier” magazine to late-breaking news that pushes the editorial department well past its “drop-dead” deadline.

Sales will be looking to add graphic designers to his team.

Jeanne Cobert, 22-year employee with the Fauquier Times, has been named classified sales manager.

The title doesn’t begin to cover it.

Cobert sells and handles the production of the classified sections of the Fauquier Times and the Prince William Times. She also handles all the legal advertising for both papers.

Perhaps the most important job Cobert handles, though, is obituaries. We have heard dozens of testimonials from readers who were grateful for Cobert’s sensitive handling of their loved ones’ last appearance in the paper. She handles each request with loving care because she understands how important obituary notices are to the loved ones left behind.

Correction

In the Jan. 5 edition of the Fauquier Times (“State supreme court approves legislative maps”) and in the Feb. 9 edition (“Republicans line up to challenge Wexton”), the place of residence for Republican congressional candidate Mike Clancy was listed as Reston, in Fairfax County. A campaign representative confirmed that information in a Jan. 3 email. Clancy, however, clarified Feb. 3 that he lives in Sterling, in Loudoun County, although he owns real estate in Reston. Sterling is within the newly redrawn boundaries of the 10th Congressional District.

Associate publisher/ managing editor Robin Earl

Cobert will be adding a salesperson to the department.

Warrenton Town Council supports reviving ‘parklets’ this year

By Coy Ferrell

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

At a work session Tuesday morning, members of Warrenton Town Council expressed support for reinstating the program that allows businesses in Old Town Warrenton to use public parking spaces for outdoor dining and other business amenities. Council members agreed to finalize details by next month.

The “parklets” were first implemented in May 2020 as restaurants were permitted to resume outdoor dining in the wake of the pandemic’s first wave. In the spring of 2021, employees of the town’s public works department built about a dozen parking-space-sized installations with railings for businesses to use; those will be used again this year.

“The value of these ‘parklets’ has proven itself beyond our wildest expectations,” said Mayor Carter Nevill on Tuesday.

Refuse and recycling pickup

The town’s two trash trucks are nearing the end of their lifecycles, and council members expressed general support Tuesday morning for purchasing two semi-automated refuse trucks to replace them.

A final quote, expected to total about $600,000, will be presented to the council for a decision next month.

Over a 10-year period, purchasing the new trucks would save the town about $1.3 million, budget manager Rea Price explained, since the trucks require only two employees each to operate, down from the current three. (A robotic arm picks up and empties trash and recycling bins.)

That would also free up public works employees who are currently taken from other divisions to work on refuse pickup, said Public Works Director Frank Cassidy. And, he said, the automated

trucks sort trash and recycling streams much more efficiently and could give the town a cost-efficient avenue to resume picking up glass recycling from residents’ curbsides.

Some federal stimulus funds remain unallocated

About $7.2 million of the town’s American Rescue Plan Act allocation has been earmarked, leaving $3.2 million unallocated, according to Finance/ Procurement Director Stephanie Miller.

Council members discussed in broad terms Tuesday morning using the remaining funds to promote tourism and incentivize affordable housing, but no concrete proposals have yet been made.

Of the money that has been earmarked, $4 million is set aside for water and sewer infrastructure projects, $2 million for parks and recreation, $597,000 to purchase new refuse trucks, $312,000 for administration costs and the rest for sidewalk and road projects.

Redistricting may affect only 20 parcels

The constitutionally mandated redistricting process may only affect about 20 households, according to a map supported by the town council. A public hearing, set for next month, must be held before the maps can be finalized.

Council members Tuesday morning said that they generally agreed with a reconfiguration of Warrenton’s five wards that would move the 20 parcels on Gale Court and Driftwood Court from Ward 3 to Ward 2. All of the parcels are in the Breezewood subdivision.

This year’s town elections affect only the council’s two at-large seats and the mayoral position; candidates for ward-level seats will next be on the ballot in 2024.

Independence Avenue, a road that runs alongside Grace Miller Elementary School, could be renamed Bengü Beachley Avenue.

Supervisor moves to name road for slain elementary school teacher

By Coy Ferrell

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

Supervisor Chris Butler (Lee District) has introduced a resolution to rename a Bealeton road adjacent to Grace Miller Elementary School in honor of Bengü Beachley, the teacher who was killed last month in what police called an “apparent murder-suicide.”

“After attending the [Jan. 26] vigil for her, I saw the number of lives she’d touched: neighbors, fellow educators and especially our students,” Butler said. “I want folks to remember the great things she did by teaching — and our community to remember that domestic violence is real and that abuse or bullying of any kind is not OK.” See BEACHLEY, page 4

Fauquier High graduate 1 of 2 officers killed at Bridgewater College Feb. 1 JEFFERSON, from page 1 Kraig Kelican, principal of Fauquier High School, remembered J.J. Jefferson fondly. “I don’t think I can say enough about J.J. J.J. was a dedicated and devoted student and athlete with a heart of gold. In the classroom, he always gave his best effort and was focused on learning as much as he could. He was inquisitive and enthusiastic and loved classes that required hands-on activities.

“Athletically, he was talented and had the best work ethic anyone could ask for. He worked hard at being his best and was a familiar face in the weight room, on the football field and at other athletic events.

“J.J.’s personality may have been his most redeeming characteristic. Always with a huge smile, eager to have a conversation and willing to help anyone. His kind demeanor, outgoing personality, caring attitude and sense of humor made him a friend to all.

“J.J.’s passing is such a tragic and senseless loss, and he will be greatly missed by all.”

Kelican confirmed that Jefferson graduated from FHS in June of 1993.

High school friend and football

Supervisor moves to name road for slain elementary school teacher BEACHLEY, from page 3 According to Beachley’s mother, who was wounded in the Jan. 23 shooting, Bengü Beachley’s ex-husband opened fire when the two women returned to the teacher’s home that evening. In court filings for a protective order, which was ultimately denied, Bengü Beachley alleged that her then-husband had stalked and threatened her as the couple moved toward a divorce.

Butler is proposing to rename a portion of Independence Avenue, an L-shaped access road that serves both Grace Miller and Liberty High School. The resolution to be considered by supervisors at their monthly meeting Thursday would rename the portion of the “L” connected with Va. 28 to Bengü Beachley Avenue. The portion of the road accessed by U.S. 17 would retain the same name.

Beachley began working for the Fauquier County School Division as a part-time English-as-asecond-language teacher at Pierce Elementary School in Remington; she also worked as a substitute teacher and as a German exchange-student facilitator for the school division.

In 2018, she began teaching ESL full-time at Grace Miller. A native of Turkey, Beachley was also the assistant director of STARTALK, the school division’s immersive Arabic and Turkish language program.

Alexander Wyatt Campbell is accused of killing two police officers, Bridgewater College Police Officer John E. Painter, 55, and Bridgewater College Campus Safety Officer Vashon A. “J.J.” Jefferson. teammate Andy Ruffner said that Jefferson was “one of the best natural athletes I’ve seen. His defining sports moment was near the end of our last game of our senior year. J.J. sacked the quarterback on three straight plays to seal the victory. It was one of the most exciting things that happened playing ball with him.”

He added, “It’s hard to pin down too many individual stories because I just remember him being so damn happy all the time! I’m glad I have those memories.”

Active shooter on campus

In a press conference held Feb. 1 at the college, Virginia State Police spokeswoman Corinne Geller said that police were notified shortly before 1:20 p.m. that day about a “suspicious person” on campus. Geller explained that Campbell was described as “suspicious” because “he was in a place he shouldn’t have been.”

After Painter and Jefferson spoke with the suspect for a few minutes, he fired on the two officers and fled, Geller said.

She said in a Feb. 1 press release, “Immediately following a 911 call, the Bridgewater College Police Department, Town of Bridgewater Police Department, Virginia State Police, Rockingham County Sheriff’s Office, City of Harrisonburg Police, Augusta County Sheriff’s Office, Town of Dayton Police Department and the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources Conservation Police immediately responded to the scene. Search efforts were immediately underway across the campus.

“A man fitting the shooter’s description was located on Riverside Drive in the town of Bridgewater. He then waded through the river and onto an island in the North River, which is located in the town of Bridgewater.

Harrisonburg Police, Rockingham County sheriff’s deputies and VSP special agents took the individual into custody without further incident,” the press release continued.

Geller said during the press conference that Campbell was suffering from non-life-threatening gunshot wounds when he was found, but it is not clear if they were from an officer’s gun or self-inflicted, said

A memorial service for both police officers killed at Bridgewater College on Feb. 1 — JJ Jefferson and John Painter — will be held at 11 a.m., Wednesday, Feb. 9 at the Atlantic Union Bank Center on the campus of James Madison University, 645 University Boulevard, Harrisonburg, Virginia.

The service will be open to the public. See obituary on page 26.

Geller. She said that Jefferson had not been armed.

Campbell was treated for his wounds and released from the hospital.

He is currently being held at the Rockingham County Jail. Geller said that several firearms that have been connected to Campbell have been found, both on and off campus. No motive for the killings has been reported.

‘I was always happy when J.J. was on duty’

Kayla Green Ferrell of Warrenton remembered Jefferson from when he was working at Shenandoah University as a Department of Public Safety officer, and she was a student. She recalled, “J.J. was the nicest guy! He always had a big smile on his face and made me laugh.” She said she got to know Jefferson well when she was a resident adviser at the college.

“He called me ‘Fauquier’ as we both graduated from Fauquier High School.

When I was on duty for the weekend as an RA I was always so happy when J.J. was on duty also. He always made everything more fun. He really cared about the students. He was the officer on campus that went out of his way to really get to know the students and hang out on his rounds.

“When I was in grad school, I’d be up until the middle of the night studying. J.J. would go on his rounds and see my light on and flash his flashlight at my window. I’d go out on the balcony and some nights we chatted … laughing about this or that.”

Ferrell said that she had remained in touch with Jefferson through Facebook. “He just got married last July,” she said.

The president of Shenandoah University sent an email to alumni Feb. 1 that read, “I am writing with heartbreaking news. I know you are all aware of the events that unfolded this afternoon at Bridgewater College where two officers were shot in an active shooter incident. …

“We were devastated to learn that one of our former and beloved Shenandoah University Department of Public Safety officers Vashon “J.J.” Jefferson was killed today in the shooting at Bridgewater, where he had been serving as a campus safety officer.

“J.J. took classes while he worked at Shenandoah from 2012 to 2018 and was promoted to sergeant in 2013. J.J. received a Wilkins Award from SU in 2017 in recognition of his initiatives to re-envision campus safety as focusing on student and community relationships.

“He was known for walking every inch of main campus throughout the evenings, meeting students and getting to know them well. Over social media, he is being remembered by SU colleagues and students as having a commanding presence, a warm smile and a laugh that would echo down the hallways. He would never just secure a building in the evening; instead, he would greet each person he encountered with genuine care and interest while securing buildings — and whenever he had a free moment, he would stop by SU games or rehearsals to cheer on our students.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with Shannon Oates Jefferson, J.J.’s wife, and an alumna of Shenandoah who graduated in 2014.”

Bridgewater College President David Bushman said at the press conference, “Words will never be enough to express our sadness and our grief. People we love have lost people they love.”

He described the Bridgewater College community as devastated and said in a social media posting, “Today our campus community experienced unspeakable tragedy. Two members of the Bridgewater College family were senselessly and violently taken from us. The sadness is palpable. Words are not adequate, not nearly so, to express the grief, sadness, fear and —justifiably — the anger we all feel.

“Campus police officer John Painter and campus safety officer J.J. Jefferson were shot and killed on campus while protecting us. These officers were close friends, known to many of us as the ‘dynamic duo.’ John was J.J.’s best man in his wedding this year.

They were beloved by students, faculty and staff. I hurt for their families and loved ones, as I know we all do.

“This is a sad and dark day for Bridgewater College. I know we all have so many questions and not many answers. One thing I do know, though, is that we will rally around one another and support each other as we move forward from this day.

We are all victims, though some much more so than others, and it will be important that we each seek to find comfort and support in the ways most meaningful for us.”

Gov. Glenn Youngkin ordered flags in the commonwealth to be flown at half-mast on Feb. 2 to honor the two slain officers.

Warrenton attorney’s law license suspended MORGAN, from page 1 Morgan is associated with two firms headquartered at 98 Alexandria Pike, Warrenton, according to state corporation records: John Carter Morgan, Jr., PLLC — Morgan is the only member listed — and New Day Legal, for which Morgan is listed as a co-owner with Richmond-based attorney Suad Bektic.

On Jan. 26 — the day after the panel of judges suspended Morgan’s license — New Day Legal posted a video featuring Morgan to its Facebook page. The video, titled “Why It Is Important For A Bankruptcy Attorney To Be Empathetic,” made no reference to the previous day’s ruling.

On Monday, however, Morgan said that he is “no longer associated” with New Day Legal. Bektic did not respond to an emailed list of detailed questions — including about his professional relationship with Morgan — sent last week by the Fauquier Times.

Upright Law

Morgan was a “local partner” in a national scheme run by a Chicago-based law firm doing business as Upright Law. The judge fined Upright $250,000 and barred the firm from filing cases in the Western District of Virginia bankruptcy court for five years. Morgan was one of two Upright “local partners” disciplined by the court.

Claims about real estate license

On the New Day Legal website, John Morgan, Jr. claimed as of Feb. 4 to be a “licensed Virginia real estate agent with well over 40 years of experience in real estate transactions.”

Morgan, however, has not held a real estate license in Virginia since 2009, according to the Virginia Real Estate Board. After the Fauquier Times made an inquiry to Morgan, the page had been removed entirely from the New Day Legal website as of Monday.

Morgan addressed the issue in an email Monday to the Fauquier Times.

“That website bio is 15 years old, and my bio was recently removed, as I am no longer with the firm. In the past 30 years I have handled real estate closings,” he said.

U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Paul Black in 2018 ruled that the company had caused “unconscionable” harm to vulnerable individuals, on many occasions taking money from clients while providing subpar legal services — or none whatsoever.

The judge’s ruling described a “playbook” used to train Upright salespeople in Chicago, calling it “replete with high-pressure sales tactics” that are “unsettling to the court.” At times, the behavior of the Chicago-based salespeople con-

‘I completely accept Judge Black’s ruling’

John Morgan, Jr. agreed to answer questions from the Fauquier Times, sending a written response Monday.

Morgan said that he has not been a “limited partner” with Upright since 2016. He said that he “counseled hundreds of people” referred from Upright and filed 63 bankruptcy cases for Upright clients.

He declined to dispute any of the facts asserted in the 2018 ruling handed down by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Paul Black that led to his license suspension. “After many legitimate appeals, I completely accept Judge Black’s ruling,” he said.

Despite the temporary loss of his law license, Morgan said that he plans to resume practicing law after he regains his license. “I enjoy helping people.

That is what I have built my practice on. So, after I complete the terms of the agreed disposition, it is my intention at this time to continue in the practice of law.” stituted the practice of law by unlicensed individuals, the judge ruled.

The judge singled out some of the instructions listed in the “playbook” for particular criticism. For instance, if a potential client says, “I need to pray about it,” salespeople were directed to respond: “I appreciate that. I pray about every decision I make myself. How are you most comfortable praying? Let’s pray together. I trust God won’t mislead either of us. I am willing to accept God’s will for the both of us.”

After a successful pitch to a potential client, the federal judge ruled that desperate clients paid — nearly $2,000 in some cases — for services that were never rendered. This was especially harmful in cases where Upright arranged a “payment plan” for a client.

In 48% of the cases filed in the Western District of Virginia, for instance, Upright clients were unable to complete their payment plan and no legal services were provided to the individual, according to the ruling. This was despite the fact that Upright salespeople told clients that “payments made are direct compensation for … work on your case and are generally non-refundable.”

‘Local partners’

The Chicago office acted as a “referral hub” for “local partners,” the justice department alleged during the trial. The purpose of the “local partners,” in turn, “was to receive additional revenue with minimum input.” The “local partners” were entitled to a share of the revenue generated by the Chicago sales team, prosecutors said.

Morgan agreed to become a “local partner” for Upright in 2014, according to records presented at the trial. The case at the center of the disciplinary actions against Morgan involved a client referred to him by the Upright sales team the following year, in 2015, according to the federal ruling.

In this case, Morgan delegated initial legal services for the client to his wife, Rhonda Morgan, who is not an attorney. “[John] Morgan did not review [the client’s] petition or schedules with [the client], and [John] Morgan did not witness [the client] sign them, either,” said the 2018 ruling. Instead, “this was delegated entirely to Rhonda Morgan.

The filings with the court were replete with errors.”

In fact, according to trial transcripts, Morgan said that he often

Previous sanctions against Morgan

The disciplinary actions in 2018 and last month are not the first occasions on which John Morgan, Jr. has been disciplined for violating professional rules of conduct.

In 1992, the Virginia State Bar placed him on probation for one year. Then, a panel of judges found, Morgan had interviewed a criminal defendant without that defendant’s lawyer present; Morgan was able to convince the individual to take the blame for a crime that two of Morgan’s own clients were also accused of committing.

In 2000, Morgan himself pleaded guilty to two felony cocaine possession charges, for which he was sentenced to five years in prison — all suspended — and 99 years of supervised probation. His law license was suspended for three years.

Morgan again came before a disciplinary panel in 2016. While the three judges on the panel ruled that Morgan had kept cash payments from clients in a safe — instead of depositing the money into a trust bank account as required by professional conduct rules — they found that the violation was “clearly not of sufficient magnitude to warrant disciplinary action.” asks his wife for guidance on legal matters. “I would say that my wife has superior knowledge of the law and the conduct of the signing and the elements of the bankruptcy petition.”

Later, Morgan delegated his services to another attorney for a client meeting, claiming without any supporting documentation that his client had given him permission to do so, the judge said. “His own time records reflect [Morgan] attended the … meeting,” the judge wrote, “when clearly he did not.”

Morgan’s client was eventually successful in applying for bankruptcy protection, according to the federal court ruling. But along the way, according to the judge, Morgan falsified his client’s signature on a legal document — a document the client did not even know existed until later — and waited months to correct the error-ridden documents prepared by his wife.

Warrenton attorney’s law license suspended MORGAN, from page 6

‘A scam from the start’

At the heart of Upright’s operation was a concerted effort to pressure customers into giving up their financed vehicle — often one of the last remaining assets a person filing for bankruptcy possessed — as a form of payment for legal services to Upright.

The firm, in turn, would have the vehicle towed out of state by another company, Indiana-based Sperro, therefore making it prohibitively expensive for the legitimate finance company to retrieve it. Then, despite the fact that the legitimate financing company had a legal right to the vehicle, Sperro would sell the vehicle at auction, using the proceeds to pay Upright.

The judge called the arrangement with Sperro “a scam from the start.”

While there is no indication in court

documents that Morgan had a direct role in facilitating the vehicle-payment program, the judge ruled that Morgan failed initially to disclose that his client had given up their vehicle to the Upright-Sperro scheme.

The individuals affected by the firm’s and attorneys’ misconduct — including Morgan’s client referenced in the court ruling — were harmed “through no fault of their own,” the judge ruled.

“None of the debtors appears to have done anything more than seek out help due to severe financial distress and rely on whoever was advising them what to do — be it an Upright salesperson in Chicago or their local attorney. They did not know where else to turn and it is truly unfortunate they have been drawn into this maelstrom,” the judge wrote.

Despite sanctions, Upright Law still active

The sanctions imposed by the bankruptcy court for the Western District of Virginia are not the only discipline to which Upright Law and its “local partners” have been subject.

Despite that fact, Upright continues to operate in most parts of the United States — except in specific courts where it has been banned. Upright continues to advertise “over 350 attorneys in cities and towns throughout the country waiting to help you get a fresh start.”

According to a March 10, 2021, statement from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Trustee Program, “Upright has paid or been ordered to pay almost $900,000 in monetary relief, including returning fees to over 500 impacted consumers and paying court-ordered sanctions, attorney’s

fees and costs. Additionally, bankruptcy courts have imposed practice bans against Upright in at least four jurisdictions.”

According to its own website, Upright is currently barred from representing clients in the federal bankruptcy courts for the Eastern District of Tennessee and the Western District of Kentucky — along with the Western District of Virginia.

The website also notes that Upright “is not accepting new clients for whom proper venue for a bankruptcy filing would be the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Districts of Montana, Western Louisiana, Northern Alabama, Middle Alabama, Southern Alabama, Eastern North Carolina, Middle North Carolina, Western North Carolina, Puerto Rico, Guam or the U.S. Virgin Islands.”

Upright did not respond to a request for comment.

“Clover” was the first word that Fauquier County Spelling Bee champion Anna Snyder spelled correctly at the Feb. 5 event held at Fauquier High School. About an hour later, she spelled “paternalism” correctly to win the championship.

In between those two words, Anna and 43 other students from 11 elementary schools, five middle schools and the school division’s Virtual Academy competed for the title of best speller.

“Drizzle,” “noggin,” “frock,” “pamper” and “toddler” in the first round led to “fructose,” “stewardship” and “embroidery,” which gave way to “mousse,” “primordial” and “Confucianism.”

County runner-up Ben Perkins from Marshall Middle School made it confidently all the way to “indigestion” before bowing out.

Some students, like Bradley Elementary School’s Marvelle Dankwa, a third grader and Marcellus Newman, a fifth grader, appeared calm and confident throughout the contest. But there were a lot of anxious faces and fidgeting as the children waited for their next turn at the mic.

Sighs of relief followed each correct response.

Anna, 12, was a little overwhelmed when she realized she was the champion. She grinned while School Board member Susan Pauling (Center District) handed her the big trophy and hung the Spelling Bee champion medal around her neck.

She received an overly enthusiastic running hug from one of her three siblings and proud embraces

from her parents, Sherri and Arthur Snyder.

The seventh grader said she’d been studying since October, with help from her parents and an app called Word Club.

Anna’s dad said that he and his wife would quiz Anna on the way to school. “My parents were a big help,” said Anna.

It was a big day for Anna. Earlier that day, she had placed first in the “outlaw” division (for siblings) of the Pinewood Derby.

It brings to mind one of the words a student was asked to spell Saturday: “Phenomenal.”

Anna and Ben will advance to the Free Lance-Star Regional Spelling Bee scheduled for Feb. 26. The

regional winner will advance to the Scripps National Spelling Bee at the Gaylord National Resort (National Harbor) during the week of Memorial Day. John Lucas coordinated the 16th annual Spelling Bee; Steven Payne was the “pronouncer;” and Kathy Crane, Megan Howland and Amy Fields were judges.

Bottom right: Maria Lopez teaches kindergartners.

Thompson Elementary breaks ground with bilingual initiative ESL, from page 1 Aylor, ESL supervisor for Fauquier County Public Schools. “I truly believe that, at the end of the school year, you will see that students have made progress in their reading, writing and math. But will also have added this additional skill that they’re beginning to develop. It’s exciting to me to watch that happen.”

The Thompson Bilingual Initiative has been in the works since early 2020, Aylor said, when school administrators came to her with the idea for a Spanish-language initiative. “It has always bugged me that, globally, we’re one of the few countries that don’t offer a second language in elementary school,” Marypat Warter, the school’s principal, said of her decision to pursue the program. “I think this year especially, we wanted something different to look forward to. … It’s been fun, and the kids enjoy it.”

Each morning at Thompson, kindergarten, first and second-grade students are given 20-minute lessons by the school’s team of Spanish-speaking instructors. Third, fourth and fifth graders use Duolingo, a free language-learning app, during the school day for their Spanish instruction.

Without funding for additional Spanish-speaking staff, the school wasn’t able to implement a full bilingual program for all grades, said Warter, “so we looked at our current staff and came up with what we thought was a great start. And it has been.”

Irma Carino, who has taught at Thompson for 13 years, heads the bilingual program and supervises a team of three instructional assistants. The lessons, she said, follow a curriculum for each grade level and combine reading, writing and speaking skills. Games, colorful pictures and songs—for seasons, days of the week and months of the year—feature heavily. Lessons also include students reciting the Pledge of Allegiance in Spanish.

“I’ve seen great progress” in the students, said Carino, in their pronunciation and confidence speaking Spanish. Students now greet her with “Hola” in the hallways, she said, and some students now mix English and Spanish words in their conversations. “They’re growing a lot,” added Maria Lopez, one of the bilingual instructors. “They’re like sponges.”

Stephanie Fischer, a first-grade teacher at Thompson, said that parents have told her at parent-teacher conferences how much their kids enjoy learning Spanish and are always singing the songs they learn at home.

For the students, the benefits of becoming bilingual “are just amazing,” said Aylor. “It increases their critical thinking skills, helps them develop cognitively and increases self-esteem.” Being able to speak another language also increases future job opportunities, as “a lot of employers are looking for bilingual individuals,” Aylor said.

Additionally, the bilingual program has helped “strengthen the Spanish language of our Hispanic students,” said Warter. “Even though they can understand it and speak it, they can’t always read it, so they’re also learning.”

Bilingual education “opens doors and broadens horizons,” said Nancy Zevillanos, head of Thompson’s ESL program. “When you’re exposed to other cultures, you become open-minded. ... It would be a dream come true if this school became bilingual.”

Some of the program’s instructors, however, are paid through CARES Act funding that ends after this year, said Warter, and administrators are searching for ways to keep enough staff for a sustainable program. Warter said she has started to look at outside grants as another source of funding.

“I’m going to work hard to make sure we can sustain what we started.

I truly believe in it,” said Warter.

New Baltimore man charged with rape

By Liam Bowman

Fauquier Times Staff Writer

Whether you are planning to remodel your kitchen, transform your master bath, finish a basement or build an addition, you need more than a contractor. You need a partner you can trust with the possession that says the most about what you value and the way you live.

A New Baltimore man was arrested Jan. 27 and charged with felony rape. The alleged offense took place in March 2021.

Parker Webb, 22, allegedly raped a woman while she slept at his place of residence — his parents’ home — according to the criminal complaint filed with his arrest. Webb remains in custody after a judge denied him bond at a Feb. 3 hearing.

At the hearing, Senior Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Abigail Owens told the court that prosecutors have identified two additional victims whom Webb allegedly sexually abused — one in 2017 and another in 2019. Owens added that prosecutors have identified a third additional potential victim, but that they have not yet been able to interview that person.

Webb’s defense attorney, Justin Daniel, argued that Webb is not a threat to the community and should have been released from custody on bond. The alleged incident, he said, occurred at a “get-together among friends or acquaintances,” adding that there “might have been drinking involved ... perhaps substantial drinking.”

Owens, however, said that wit-

Parker Webb nesses at the gathering corroborated the alleged victim’s version of events, and she argued successfully that Webb should remain in custody while the case is adjudicated.

General District Judge Jessica Foster said that, in light of the information presented by Owens, “I can’t release someone who is a danger to the community.”

Webb is a 2018 graduate of Kettle Run High School.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to contact Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office Det. Kurt Schlichting at 540-422-8650 or kurt. schlichting@fauquiercounty.gov.

All Lord Fairfax Community College students are now able to get immediate help for mental health needs at no cost – through TimelyMD, a telehealth company specializing in higher education. The news was announced in a Wednesday press release from Sally Voth, LFCC’s public relations coordinator.

Voth said that TimelyMD offers students 24/7 counseling resources through the TimelyCare app. LFCC students can now select from a menu of virtual care options from licensed physicians and counselors in all 50 states – at no cost to them and without traditional insurance.

Services include: • On-demand mental health support (TalkNow) • Appointment-based mental health counseling • Psychiatric support • Health coaching Students can log into TimelyCare to set up a counseling appointment, but students in crisis can get immediate support through TalkNow. With TalkNow, they can reach a behavioral health professional 24 hours a day to talk about any issues

they may be having, such as suicidal thoughts, exam anxiety, stress or relationship issues.

The health coaching feature includes unlimited virtual sessions with a nutritionist, as well as coaching in a variety of topics, including exercise, healthy sleep habits, blood pressure issues, mindfulness, gut health, eating disorders and more.

Voth said that TimelyCare allows students to see the profiles, faces and specialty care details of licensed physicians and counselors available to them. They can choose to meet with a specific provider or select the first available. Typical consultations can begin within 5 to 10 minutes – less than the amount of time it takes to walk across campus.

Voth added that 60% of all students who have sought mental health support from TimelyMD said they would have done nothing if the service were not available to them.

Dean of Students Amber Foltz said the service “is open to all LFCC students, whether they enroll in one credit, or 18 credits.”

HATS OFF TO SHERANDO, BUT LIBERTY’S NOT DONE YET Warriors dominate district meet with Eagles second

All eyes on Saturday’s region meet at Liberty

By Fred Hodge

Special to the Fauquier Times

Sherando cruised to the 2021 Northwestern District team wrestling championship last Thursday in Stephens City.

The Warriors’ depth was too much for the seven-team league en route to 237 points to 161.5 for runner-up and defending state champion Liberty.

James Wood (147), Kettle Run (137), Handley (134), Fauquier (122) and Millbrook (119) completed the field.

Host Sherando, which qualified 13 of its 14 wrestlers for this Saturday’s Region 4C tournament, had finalists in 10 of the 14 weight classes and finished with four individual gold medals and six silvers.

Liberty, which will host Saturday’s region meet beginning at 9 a.m., had two champions and advanced nine grapplers to regionals, giving them hope of advancing a strong contingent to states on Feb. 18-19 in Virginia Beach.

Fauquier had three district champions to two apiece for Handley and James Wood, while Millbrook captured one title. Kettle Run, James Wood and Handley are all sending seven to regionals. Millbrook has six

Fauquier’s Reece Kuhns won the 152-pound title at last week’s Northwestern District meet. The Region C meet is Saturday at Liberty. qualifiers and Fauquier five.

The pre-tournament consensus predicted Sherando would win, and the Warriors lived up to expectations.

“Sherando has a very solid team up and down the lineup,” said Kettle Run coach Mike Foy Liberty’s Wes Hawkins agreed: “Sherando had too many [good] kids.”

But it wasn’t a bad night for Liberty as Hawkins was pleased with advancing nine to the regional tournament.

Foster Cardinale, at 126 pounds,

won Liberty’s first title. He received a first-round bye as the top seed and won a fall in the semifinals. The final was anticlimactic, as Sherando’s Tommy Koerner could not compete, resulting in an injury default.

At 170 pounds, Royce Hall also received an opening bye before a first-period fall, then delivered a 19-5 technical fall over Brandon Blair of Sherando for the gold medal. Hall won the state title last year at 195 pounds.

KETTLE RUN BOYS TOUCH THE WALL FIRST

Saturday’s region tournament in Bealeton is where tickets get punched for the state tournament.

The top four place winners in each weight make the Class 4 meet Feb. 18-19 in Virginia Beach.

Liberty coach Wes Hawkins believes regionals will be more closely bunched with the Dulles District included.

His pre-tournament calculations show the Eagles coming up a bit short without help from another team to knock off a favored wrestler here or there. “I think we will be ready,” Hawkins predicted.

“Then we’ll see who we can get to the state tournament.”

The Eagles already have had a hard practice schedule that will continue through Wednesday before tapering for Saturday’s matches.

Wrestling commences at 9 a.m.

The championship semifinals are set for 12 noon, continuing throughout the afternoon with consolation round action. The consolation finals will be 4-5 p.m., followed by the championship matches at 5.

Cougars’ girls are second in district swim meet; regions next

By Jason S. Rufner

Special to the Fauquier Times

The moments high school swimmers will always remember are about to happen.

With the Northwestern District swim meet in the books, all that remains are the championships, both regional and state - and the joy that comes with winning gold.

After their performances Feb. 4 at districts, Kettle Run, Liberty, and Fauquier high schools will all send swimmers to the Region 4B meet Feb. 12 and the Class 4 state meet Feb. 18.

Their coaches expect plenty of memorable moments.

Kettle Run soars into postseason

Freshman Jackson Tishler sprinted his way to victories in the butterfly and the freestyle heats of 100 yards each, leading the Cougar boys to the district title by 25.5 points over runner-up James Wood.

Tishler also anchored Kettle Run’s first-place 400-yard freestyle relay, teaming with Marco Mirrione, Rich Cruger, and Andrew Hendrickson.

Mirrione, Aiden Hess, and sophomores Andrew Brown and Cory Frisk teamed to win the 200-yard freestyle relay, edging James Wood by less than a second.

The Cougars’ girls claimed second, setting a pair of school records.

The quartet of Emma Craddock, Megan Fallin, Allegra Craft, and Lily Von Herbulis combined to

Then freshman Caroline Agee did the 100-yard butterfly in a school-best 1:00.32.

First-year coach Alex Ciopyk complimented Gemma Flook, Tres Black, and senior Sam and sophomore Nick Hopkins “for all adding individual events to their regional lineup.”

Ciopyk believes his teams will be competitive in the Region 4B meet too.

“I am impressed and proud of everything our team has done this season,” Ciopyk said. “They have all put in a lot of hard work to get to where they are. These swimmers have done a lot to make me proud to be their coach.”

Liberty happy with strong swims

Competition brings out the best, as coach Stacy Laine saw at districts.

“The biggest highlight was that 93% of our

swims resulted in best times,” she said. “That is incredible. We had an amazing meet.”

Although the boys and girls finished sixth and seventh as teams, five Eagles stamped their tickets to regionals, led by senior William Frederick’s first-place 23.47 in the 50-yard freestyle. Frederick also tied for third in the 100-yard freestyle to make the next round.

Frederick combined with freshman Marshall Howard, junior Jonathan Cannon, and freshman Jason Cannon to take fourth in the 200-yard freestyle relay, making regionals.

Howard and both Cannons also earned region berths in individual events, led by Howard qualifying in the 200-yard individual medley and 500-yard freestyle.

On the girls side, Bryar Laine made regionals in the 200-yard freestyle and the 100-yard breaststroke.

Falcon girls jump to victory at district indoor track meet Fauquier boys take second, regions next on Monday

By Fred Hodge

Special to the Fauquier Times

Chalk one up for Fauquier assistant coach Marissa Martin.

Several weeks ago, Fauquier head track coach Quintin Jones was lamenting the ill effects of January’s winter conditions, which prevented the Falcons from focusing on the jumping events prior to the upcoming Northwestern District indoor meet.

Jones did not want to enter an athlete who had not found their respective starting points on the runway or high jump apron.

“We pretty much lost the entire month of January,” Jones continued.

“Finally, Marissa said ‘Let me try some jumps.’ ‘We did, they found their marks and they did well.”

Well enough to help propel Fauquier to the girls team championship Monday at Shenandoah University in addition to a runner-up slot for the boys squad.

The Falcon girls scored in 14 of the 15 events, winning seven en route to 140 points, far ahead of James Wood at 88 and Handley (82).

Millbrook (48), Sherando (35), Liberty (32) and Kettle Run (31) trailed the leaders.

Fauquier’s boys won five gold medals and scored in 13 events but finished second to Handley. The Judges

Fauquier’s girls won the the district title Monday in Winchester. scored a 136.5-122 win, with James Wood (82), Millbrook (54), Sherando (33.5), Liberty (24) and Kettle Run (8) completing the field.

The top six individuals and top three relay teams will return to Shenandoah University next Monday for the Region 4C championships.

Fauquier’s field event crew tallied 53 of its points on the girls side, including 24 in the triple jump. Mackenzie Hodul won with a jump of 32 feet, two inches. Evie Goetz (32-0.5) and Brooklyn Bartholomew (30-5.5) placed second and third, respectively. Goetz was the long jump victor at 14-8.5.

On the track, Cassidy Scott struck gold twice with wins at 1,000 (3:06) and 3,200 (11:46.36). She won the former by more than six seconds and the latter by more than eight. Aubrey Fernandez finished with a three-second margin in her 500-meter win in 1:23.07.

Madison Bayliff claimed the shot put with her throw of 32-8, while Stephanie Clark (30-2) was third.

Kiki Wine, Abby Gray, Fernandez and Katey Bern combined to take the 1,600 relay in 4:27.14. Wine also was second in the 1,600 (5:25.53).

Other bronze medalists were Annaka Busenlchner (55 dash, 7.83), Hodul (55 hurdles, 9.95), 800 relay (1:56.66) and 3,200 relay (10:49.42).

John Byner ran to two titles for the boys, winning the 55 in 6.87 and 300 in 37.65. Dylan Damer cleared 9-6 for the pole vault crown, and Wyatt Shaw easily won the long jump at 19-1.5. Peter Paccassi bested the 1600-meter field in 4:36.

Nicholas Curtis was the shot put silver medalist at 48-4. Placing third were Paccassi (1,000, 2:48.22), Josh Burke (pole vault, 8-6), 800 relay (1:39.44) and 1,600 relay (3:49.25).

Liberty, Kettle Run medalists

Liberty’s Isabella Cavins won the girls 55 in 7.53, with Maya Turner next at 7.91. Cavins also was the 300 runner-up at 44.43.

Liberty’s Peter Rummel, Gabe Sealock, Jacob Phelps and Cole Hoffman combined for the 1,600 relay gold at 3:44.77. Earlier, Rummel, Aidan Neidich, Phelps and Hoffman were second in the 3,200 relay in 8:6.51.

The Kettle Run duo of Colleen Schaner and Ashley Nickerson continued to dominate in the pole vault.

Schaner cleared 11-6 for the win, with Nickerson next at 9-6.

WRESTLING, from page 17 “They both wrestled well,” Hawkins said of his champions.

The Eagles’ Noah Hall won the silver medal at 145 pounds, with Evan Cox (106 pounds), Christian Eberhart (113), Tommy Clark (120), Conner Shadle (138) and Kavon Bumbrey (220) were bronze medalists. Liberty’s final regional qualifier was Dante Lindsey with a fourth at 285.

“We took second, which is good with the kids that we have,” Hawkins said.

The most exciting championship match came in the 152-pound overtime affair, pitting Fauquier’s Reece Kuhns versus Sherando’s Brogan Teter.

Teter had won the regular-season match, but Fauquier coach Chad Hoffman said the Falcon coaches did some brainstorming.

“We had a plan for Reece, and that was to keep it close going into the third [period],” Hoffman said. “He pushed the pace and took him down on a low leg single in overtime.”

The takedown came 20 seconds into the first sudden-victory period for a 3-1 victory. Kuhns, a senior, was unable to compete in last year’s postseason action due to contact tracing.

“I’m super happy for him,” Hoffman said.

Kingsley Menifee advanced to the 182-pound final via a first-period fall. There, he dispatched Kettle Run’s Abram Chumley with an 11-1 major decision.

“Kingsley is definitely the most dominant in the state. He’s on a different level,” Hoffman said of the earlier prestigious Beast of the East winner.

Fauquier’s third titlist was surprising 195-pound Leo Rodriguez. He reached the fi-

Get ready for round number three.

A pair of familiar local foes face off Friday when No. 5 seed Kettle Run visits No. 4 seed Fauquier in the Northwestern District girls basketball quarterfinals.

“We’re excited,” Kettle Run coach David Noonan said. “We’ve played them pretty tough twice and are looking forward to the challenge.”

Fauquier won a 31-29 squeaker Dec. 17 in Warrenton and pulled away late in the Jan. 14 road contest for a 38-28 win after the score stood at 23-23 with six minutes to play.

“This is the part of the season that everyone looks forward to,” Noonan continued. “Fauquier was able to get it done last year.

Taking on the defending champs in the first round is never an easy matchup.”

“It’s always a tight game. I expect them to be playoff ready too,” said Fauquier’s Brian Foddrell.

Reaching this year’s girls regional basketball tournament is going to be a tall order for county teams. Only the two Northwestern District tournament finalists make it.

“Leo definitely exceeded expectations. [He’s] probably one of the toughest kids I’ve ever coached in terms of the mental side of the sport,” said Hoffman.

The Falcons also will be sending Bryce Frost (third, 145) and Damian Cooper (fourth, 160) to the regional level.

Kettle Run did not have a champion, yet coach Foy was pleased with the team’s effort.

“Absolutely, they exceeded my expectations. I thought we might get two, possibly three, to the finals. We got four,” he said happily, also pleased with

SWIMMING, from page 17 The coach hopes to earn some state qualifiers at regionals.

“We had an excellent season,” she said, praising her swimmers’ dedication. “They would often go on their own and get some pool time. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better group!”

Fauquier sets 17 personal bests

The Falcon girls were sixth and boys seventh but it was a meet of personal bests, as 17 Falcons swam better times than they ever had in those events.

Freshman Nina Woodside dropped 12 seconds off her previous best in

After going 0-for-2 in the regular season, the Liberty boys basketball team will try again to beat Kettle Run Friday.

This meeting has more impact as it’s the Northwestern District quarterfinals.

The Eagles came back from 11 down only to see a potential game-winning last-second shot miss in last week’s 52-21 loss in Bealeton.

“Kettle Run was tough as usual,” said Liberty coach Pat Frazer. “They were without Jordan (Tapscott) and Blake (Doerler), but they still did a great job. Coach (Christian) Yancey had those guys ready and they made a couple more plays that

the 500-yard freestyle, taking third and making regionals with 5:45.25.

“She missed out on a ski trip with her family, but obviously it was well worth it because she reached her goal,” head coach Patricia Davis said.

Even before districts, senior Mason Worst owned region-qualifying times in five events, and state-qualifying times in three of those. Worst will aim for states in the 100-yard butterfly and 200-yard freestyle.

“He might be swimming other events for states,” Davis said.

Davis noted that junior Graham Savage, sophomore Lana Barkovic,

decided the game.”

Kettle Run is the No. 4 seed, with the Eagles No. 5. Game time is 6 p.m.

“Kettle is a solid team and one of the best in the district, but we will be ready.

It should be fun,” said Frazer, whose team edged Fauquier 54-50 last week.

The LHS-KR winner visits No. 1 Millbrook in the semifinals.

No. 7 seed Fauquier almost recorded its first district win Monday, but fell to James Wood 78-77.

The Falcons play No. 2 seed Sherando in their Friday quarterfinal.

Boys quarterfinal pairings

No. 1 Millbrook, bye No. 7 Fauquier at No. 2 Sherando No. 6 James Wood at No. 3 Handley No. 5 Liberty at No. 4 Kettle Run

senior Ethan and sophomore Andrew Homenik set personal records in making regionals.

Barkovic sliced time off her 100yard backstroke and 200-yard freestyle.

The Homenik brothers made regionals in the 200-yard individual medley and the 100-yard breaststroke, respectively.

Sophomore Sophia Gilbert earned personal bests in both the 50-yard and 500-yard freestyle heats, the longest and shortest of the meet’s races.

“I am very proud of all of them,” the coach said. “Swimming is a team sport but teaches you to work on your own times and to better yourself.”

BASKETBALL, from page 18 Liberty own a combined 0-18 record against Millbrook, Sherando and James Wood, the top three schools in the standings.

Kettle Run collected a 52-32 Senior Night win Friday over Liberty behind 15 points each by Erin Porter and Emma Humphries, 12 from Reagan Patrick and Ava Prysock’s nine. Humphries hauled in 10 rebounds, with Jada Flemming and Porter both grabbing seven to Kate Bloom’s five. Patrick also had a team-high four steals.

A funeral is a highly emotional time for those who have lost a loved one. Even though funerals have evolved and are often less formal, it is still important to follow proper funeral etiquette if you have been invited to attend a funeral. To begin with, don’t skip the funeral if at all possible, even if you didn’t know the person directly. It is also a good idea to arrive early at a funeral to give yourself time to sign the registry and find a seat. Dressing respectfully is essential, leaving the revealing or very casual clothing at home. Additionally, use technology such as phones sparingly, if at all. Funerals are difficult for people, so it’s vital to be considerate.

Planning a funeral service can be a difficult process for families who have just lost a loved one. Gathering with friends and family gives everyone the opportunity to connect, share memories, offer words of sympathy, and create a lasting network of comfort and support as they start the journey toward healing. To learn more about the funeral services at MOSER FUNERAL HOME, please call (540) 347-3431. We welcome you to stop by our tastefully appointed facility at 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton, and be sure to ask about our BRIGHT VIEW CEMETERY, located just outside of Warrenton.
