Youth For Tomorrow pledges to reunite kids with families CEO Gary Jones expects most immigrant children at the Bristow facility to be released to relatives within two weeks

Youth For Tomorrow’s Chief Executive Officer Gary L. Jones said Monday he expects most of the 15 migrant children recently brought to their Bristow facility after being separated from parents or relatives at the U.S. border will be reunited with their families within two weeks. The nonprofit, launched by former Washington Redskins Coach Joe Gibbs in 1986, is housing 15 immigrant children between the ages of 10 and 17 who were forcibly sepa-
rated since April from their families at the border by U.S. government officials as a result of the Trump administration’s “zero-tolerance policy” for those entering the country at unauthorized crossing points. Youth For Tomorrow has been in contact with 14 of the 15 families involved. Jones said he anticipates all
the children will be returned to their families in about two weeks. “We will reunite them with their families,” he said. Most of the adults who traveled to the U.S. with the children have been released from government custody but not deported from the U.S., Jones said.
The Prince William/Gainesville Times has not been able to independently verify that the reunifications are pending. Located on Linton Hall Road, Youth For Tomorrow has been caring for immigrant teens for six years under a federal contract. But until recently, those were teens who arrived at the border on their own, without a parent or guardian. The organization also works to reunite children in those situations with family members. “That’s what we do here is reunite children with their families,” Jones said. Senator confirms YFT housing kids separated from parents. Until Friday it had been unclear if Youth For Tomorrow was housing children separated from their families.

Remembering Christopher In the wake of stepson’s death, grieving stepdad finds solace in encouraging other teens By Jonathan Hunley Times Staff Writer
Joel Martinez wants to turn a bad decision into a lesson on good decisions that he hopes to share with other families. The bad decision was that of his stepson, Douglas Christopher Portillo, 15, who died in a car crash June 8 in Lorton. Christopher was one of five Prince William County boys who were in a Nissan Maxima that hit a tree and flipped on Furnace Road on the last day of school. See PORTILLO, Page 4

PUBLIC SAFETY
Gainesville/Prince William Times | www.princewilliamtimes.com | June 27, 2018
New central police station dedicated to former chief During a recent ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new central district police station, Corey Stewart, chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors, told the story of the first time he and retired Prince William Police Chief Charlie T. Deane toured the new station. Stewart said he asked Deane how he liked the facility, and Deane said it was a “nice building.” Stewart said he told Deane that was a good thing. “I said, ‘Well good. I’m glad you like it because it’s going to get named after you.’” Stewart went on to say it was fitting that Deane, who served the county for 42 years, including 24 years as chief, to have the 54,200-square-foot

Ceremony opens new police station named for former police chief Charlie Deane station bear his name. “He led this community through some very, very tough times. Without Chief Deane, we would not have the police department we have today. We would not have the level of public safety we have today. We would not have this reputation for integrity and honesty,” Stewart said. “On behalf of the board of county supervisors and the entire Prince William County community, congratulations Chief Deane. Job well done, and this is very much deserved.” Supervisor Ruth Anderson, R-Occoquan, said she and her con-
stituents were glad that the station is in their district. “The Occoquan District is very proud to have this new central district police station in the Occoquan District, and we are so proud to have it named after you Chief Deane,” Anderson said. Supervisor John D. Jenkins, D-Neabsco, said it was “exciting” to see the “much-needed central police station come to life.” “It brings our police officers closer to the people that they proudly serve every day. How fitting it is that the station has been named af-
ter Chief Charlie Deane, an original member of ... the police force, who so honorably served our community for 42 years,” said Jenkins. Police Chief Barry Barnard told Deane during the ceremony the station was named after him because of his guidance over the years. “We really named the station after Chief Deane, the board did, and the community did, because of… your outstanding leadership and what you taught us,” Barnard said. Barnard also thanked the community and the board for the station. “I want to thank the community for the Charlie T. Deane Police Station. The community made this happen... It’s so important to have the support of the community,” he said. Deane spoke last at the ceremony and thanked his family, as well as the board. “It’s very humbling for me to have served in this department and then to have this named some years later. I’m honored to have served here, and I’m very honored to have this lasting legacy.” The new station is at 5036 Davis Ford Road and will serve the mid-county, Lake Ridge, Woodbridge and Dale City areas. – Prince William County
Two men arrested on sexual abuse charges relating to 11- and 12-year-old girls More Information on page 9
Two men were arrested by Prince William police Thursday on charges relating to rape, abduction and the production of child pornography in
two separate incidents involving 11and 12-year-old girls. According to a Prince William County police, the first investigation was launched Wednesday, June 20, when detectives from the special victims unit received a report of a rape in Woodbridge. The investigation revealed the victim, 12-year-old girl, was raped by a family member on more than one occasion in April and June 2018, a police press release said. Jose Hector Gonzalez Ortiz, 35, of Woodbridge, was arrested Thursday, June 21, and charged with two counts of rape and one count of abduction with intent to defile. He is being led without bond at the Prince William County Adult Detention Center, the press release said. Detectives from the same unit began a separate investigation June
6 into a report of sexual assault at a residence in the Manassas area of Prince William County. That investigation revealed that the victim, an 11-year-old girl, was inappropriately filmed by the accused, an acquaintance, on more than one occasion between November 2016 and June 2018, the police press release said. On one occasion, the accused allegedly sexually assaulted the victim, the press release said. Esteban Carrillo Zapeta, 32, of no fixed address, was located in Hyattsville, Maryland, and charged June 21 with aggravated sexual battery, unlawful filming and production of child pornography in connection with the investigation. Zapeta will remain in Maryland custody until he is extradited back to Virginia, the press release said.

Andrea Bailey launches 2019 run for Prince William supervisor Longtime Potomac District Supervisor Maureen Caddigan won’t seek re-election
Looking ahead to 2019
Andrea Bailey, of Dumfries, is the first to declare her candidacy for the Prince William Board of Supervisors, which will be on the ballot in November 2019. All eight seats on the county board will be up for election next year along with all eight seats on the Prince William County School Board. Also on the 2019 ballot will be all 100 members of the Virginia House of Delegates and all 40 members of the Virginia State Senate.
By Jonathan Hunley Times Staff Writer
The election is more than a year away, but businesswoman and community advocate Andrea Bailey has announced she’s running for the Prince William Board of County Supervisors in 2019. Bailey, a Democrat, is again vying for the Potomac District supervisor’s seat, a post she unsuccessfully sought in 2015. She officially launched her campaign with an event Sunday, June 24. If elected, she would be the first African American to serve on the Prince William Board of Supervisors. Whom she might face in the election, however, is unclear. Republican Supervisor Maureen Caddigan, who defeated Bailey in 2015 with 53 percent of the vote, isn’t planning to run for re-election, said Bill Card, who chairs the Prince William County Republican Committee. Caddigan, who was first elected in 1991 after serving on the Prince

Card said no other Republicans have announced candidacies for the Potomac District, but he’s confident a hopeful will step forward before the election. “We’ll run somebody,” he said. Bailey, meanwhile, said she looks at this campaign as the continuation of what she started in her first run. “I didn’t finish the race,” was how she summed it up. Bailey said she wants to both give
back and be a catalyst for the community to move forward. “We must constantly be driven to enhance where we live,” she said. Bailey wants to make sure the public has a good relationship with public safety professionals, saying that the public shouldn’t be afraid of law-enforcers, and the authorities shouldn’t be afraid to do their jobs. “There’s a relationship that needs to be built there,” she said. Bailey said she’d also like to see more mental health services available in the community, and she wants to ensure that teachers are paid well. On another issue, transportation, she said that Metrorail needs to be brought to Prince William, and that the PRTC bus service enhanced.
And she said her experience in business means she could help boost economic development in the county. Bailey has owned an event-planning business since 2003 and spent two decades working in sales and human resources for Xerox and USA Today. Bailey first lived in Prince William in 1976, when her husband, Cozy Bailey, a retired U.S. Marine colonel, was stationed at Quantico. Cozy Bailey is now president of the Prince William County NAACP. Andrea Bailey is a native of St. Louis and earned a bachelor’s degree in media studies from Webster University and a master’s degree in human resources management from National Louis University. She and her husband moved from Fairfax County to near Dumfries after he retired from the Marine Corps in part to live closer to their church, First Mount Zion Baptist on Va. 234, where Cozy Bailey is an associate minister. The Baileys have an adult son, Cozy Jr., a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and the University of Virginia, and Andrea Bailey is the caregiver for her mother, Essie L. Pullman.

Principi: Neabsco Creek dredging could begin in September By Jonathan Hunley Times Staff Writer
Neabsco Creek could be dredged by this fall, and Prince William County may be able to use some state money to pay part of the bill. The creek needs to be dredged because the U.S. Coast Guard recently deemed it too shallow to safely navigate by motorized watercraft. In March, the Coast Guard removed the two navigational buoys they usually drop at the mouth of the creek at this time of year. Instead, after a crew measured the waterway’s depth to be less than 4 feet, officials posted white signs affixed to wood pilings that say: “Danger – Shoal.” The channel must be 5 feet deep to be considered safe for boat travel, so the move has been likened to closing the creek, which affects 12 businesses and about 50 jobs. The potential danger to recreational boaters is that they can be left stranded if their boats run aground, the Coast Guard has said. Or, in

The U.S. Coast Guard posted warning signs at the mouth of Neabsco Creek after a crew measured its depth to be less than 4 feet, which is considered too shallow to safely navigate. cases where a vessel is traveling at a high speed, boaters can be ejected and suffer injuries or be killed. But the danger to the three marinas, and a fourth that plans to open,
is financial, as boaters may not want to visit the businesses at the creek if they perceive it’s unsafe to do so. So Supervisor Frank Principi, D-Woodbridge, and a coalition of
community members and federal, state and local officials have been working on the issue. “It’s a great example of the community coming together,” Principi said. He said the plan is to have dredging equipment in the water by September, and that the job will take about six weeks. The cost for the project will be about $1 million, and the Prince William Board of Supervisors agreed recently to provide $750,000. The county is going to apply for state funds to pay the rest, Principi said. The recently approved two-year state budget included $2.7 million for dredging waterways. There’s also a possibility that the county can get some federal funds to help with the dredging cost. “We’re moving forward,” Principi said. “It’s where we need to be.” The last time Neabsco Creek was dredged was 1998, he said, and historical records show that it wasn’t dredged for 100 years before that.

Remembering Christopher
Douglas Christopher Portillo, known to friends and family as Christopher, with his mom, Patricia Portillo.
PORTILLO, from Page 1 Christopher was the only boy to die in the wreck. The car’s driver, an unlicensed 14-year-old, has been treated and released from the hospital as have two other 15-year-old passengers. The fourth passenger, whose name has not been released, remained hospitalized last week. Martinez said that he thinks the accident was caused by speeding, but authorities continue to investigate it. When the investigation is complete, the matter will be turned over to the Fairfax County commonwealth’s attorney’s office, which will decide whether to file charges against the underage driver, Fairfax County police said. All five of the boys were students at Freedom High School in Woodbridge. The accident happened on the last day of school. It was reported at about 11:30 a.m., police said. The Nissan was traveling south on Furnace Road when the 14-year-old driver lost control, left the road and struck a tree. The impact caused the vehicle to flip before coming to rest on its driver-side door, police said. It’s unclear why a 14-year-old would have access to a car. “That’s our question,” Martinez said. Martinez said he believes that if Christopher had a chance to do it all

over again, he wouldn’t have gotten into the car, Martinez said. So in the wake of his stepson’s death, Martinez is determined to share his family’s story – and the importance of making good decisions -- to children and their parents at churches, schools and wherever else might be appropriate. “That’s what’s keeping us strong,” the Woodbridge resident said. The family also has seen lots of support from the community. More than 1,400 people attended Christopher’s viewing, Martinez said, and more than 400 came to his funeral. “It was unbelievable the way the community came out,” he said. Christopher was the second-youngest in a blended family that boasts children from 9 to 27. He had just finished his freshman year at Freedom, and he was going
pwcgov.org/SummerReading
to be in JROTC next year. He also talked about maybe playing football because he was a big kid at 5 feet 9 inches and 315 pounds. “He was doing very good in school,” Martinez said. He also loved family – and food. (“Where are we going? You know, what are we going to eat?” his stepdad said he would ask.) And he worked at the family’s
restaurant, Dona Tere, in Woodbridge. “He touched a lot of lives because he was very outgoing,” Martinez said. One of those was Joseph Gonzalez, 15, who was also in the car crash. He was released from the hospital last week and now undergoes physical therapy. Christopher was Joseph’s best friend, and the two were always together, said Joseph’s father, Jose Gonzalez. “Chris was like a brother to him,” Gonzalez said. He said that Christopher was friendly, was always ready to share with others and was basically an angel on Earth. Another life he touched was that of Isabel Vallejos, secretary at Freedom High School. She went to high school with Martinez, Christopher’s father, at T.C. Williams in Alexandria, and is close to his family. She said Christopher used to frequently – and voluntarily – visit the school office and was a sweet kid. “He was always smiling,” she said.

Youth For Tomorrow pledges to reunite kids with families MIGRANTS, from Page 1 cility were featured on national news outlets such as CNN and MSNBC as a possible shelter for some of the more than 2,000 children who have been separated from their families at the U.S. border since the new policy went into effect. Youth For Tomorrow issued a statement Thursday about its history of housing immigrant teens who have crossed the border without a parent or guardian. The nonprofit has served as a shelter for such youngsters for six years. The statement did not explicitly disclose the recent arrival of children separated from their parents at the border. On Friday, U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D) visited Youth For Tomorrow for about two hours. Kaine didn’t know in advance that immigrant children separated from their parents at the border were in Youth For Tomorrow’s care. “We, like everyone else, had heard reports,” a spokeswoman from his office said. Kaine went to the facility with a member of his staff. He spoke with some of the children in Spanish and left feeling they were being “appropriately cared for,” according to member of the senator’s staff. Some of the children he met with were girls. They were between the ages of 10 and 17 and had arrived since April, the staff member said. Kaine asked Youth For Tomorrow staff how the children were doing, and they confirmed many had been “traumatized” by their experiences, Kaine’s staff said in an email. In a statement after his visit, Kaine said he is grateful to Youth For Tomorrow staff for the opportunity
to visit the facility as well as what he called their “focus” on reuniting the children with their families. Kaine called on the Trump administration to identify each facility holding immigrant children separated from their families and to open them to elected officials for inspection. President Trump (R) signed an executive order ending the policy last week, but critics of the administration remained concerned about whether federal officials have the ability or information needed to reunite children with their parents. “The Trump administration needs to assure us that every single one of the children they separated from their parents is quickly and safely returned to their families,” Kaine’s statement said. “The first step toward that goal is identifying where every child is being held – releasing a list of those facilities – and letting members of Congress visit all of those locations.” “I’m thankful that Youth for Tomorrow allowed me to visit today and appreciate the organization’s focus on family reunification,” he added. “The fact that HHS isn’t being transparent about many other facilities across the country makes me worry about the conditions that many of these kids are facing.” Northam calls for investigation of Staunton facility Kaine’s visit came a day after news broke about harsh treatment of immigrant teens at a juvenile detention center outside Staunton, Virginia.

Gov. Ralph Northam (D) on Thursday called for a state investigation into those allegations. News that immigrant children separated from their parents are being housed at Youth For Tomorrow came as a surprise to Del. Lee Carter, D-50th, who said he tried for
days to find out if the facility was housing such youngsters. In a phone interview Friday night, Carter said he’d so far received only the YFT statement that did not explicitly disclose the facility is caring for children separated from their families at the border. The facility also declined to let Carter visit the children, he said. “I asked them if I could visit, and was told that request was denied, at least for now, because of HHS,” Carter said, referring to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Carter said he knows Youth For
Tomorrow is a reputable facility but is concerned about efforts are to reunite the children there with their parents or family members. Youth for Tomorrow is in Carter’s district, which includes Manassas and western Prince William County. “Those children should not have been separated from their families, period, end of story,” Carter said. “My primary focus right now is trying to figure out what’s going on, and HHS is stonewalling me.” Reach Jill Palermo and Jonathan Hunley at news@fauquier.com.

Union soldiers’ remains unearthed in first-of-its-kind discovery at Manassas Battlefield In August 1862, two Union soldiers were gravely wounded at the Second Battle of Manassas. They were brought to a field hospital, but both died as a result of their injuries. Their bodies were laid to rest in a shallow burial pit, intermixed with amputated limbs from other soldiers wounded in the battle. Then they were lost to history – until now. The National Park Service first encountered their remains during a utility project in 2014. With help from the Smithsonian Institution, the NPS was able to identify the remains as Union soldiers and worked with the Army to give the soldiers an honorable final resting place. Although previous archeological testing of the area did not identify any significant finds, the recent installation of new utility lines unearthed several small fragments of bone that were collected by the archeologist assigned to monitor the work.

The dig
At first, no one knew exactly what the bone fragments were or their origin. To find out, the NPS sent the fragments to the forensic anthropology lab at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History.
Researchers there determined the fragments were human, and that they dated to the Civil War. What’s more, a piece of femur bone they were able to piece together revealed the limb had been sawed off, consistent with an amputation. That information determined that further excavation was needed. It was possible something incredibly rare was on the site, and this was an invaluable opportunity to study and preserve the findings. In 2015, archeologists from the NPS and the Smithsonian Institution removed the earth in a grid pattern, inch by inch, layer by layer. Using scientific techniques and measurements from a variety of tools, they carefully recorded the objects they found and their precise positions. Determining the exact positions of bones in the ground helps scientists understand how the remains were placed and whether damage to bones happened before or after the person died. Beneath the surface, they found two nearly-complete human skeletons and several artifacts, including buttons from a Union sack coat, a .577 Enfield bullet, three pieces of .31 caliber lead buckshot, and an assemblage of 11 arms and legs.

In fact, this was the first time such a burial pit had ever been excavated and studied at a Civil War battlefield. To learn more about who these bones belonged to, the NPS again turned to the lab at the Smithsonian to investigate.
The lab
Forensic anthropologists from the Smithsonian helped the NPS remove the bones from the site and moved them to a laboratory at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History for further study. By analyzing the chemistry of the bones, researchers determined where the soldiers were from. Carbon isotopes and oxygen isotopes indicated the soldiers ate food and drank water from northern latitudes. Combined with the artifacts including sack coat buttons found with them, they were identified as Union soldiers. By analyzing the teeth, joints and bone structure of the two skeletons, scientists determined the first was a man in his late 20s who died as a result of injuries from an Enfield bullet striking his upper leg. Surprisingly, the bullet was still lodged in the femur bone, likely because it slowed as it passed through the man’s cartridge box. The second skeleton, estimated to be a man 30-34 years old, died as a result of a buck and ball shot to the upper arm, pelvis and leg. Both men were taken to the field

searchers believe it may be possible to match the bones with a specific surgeon and maybe even the soldier they belonged to, which would be a truly unique discovery.
A place of honor
After the remains were identified as soldiers, the Army expressed interest in giving the men a permanent resting
place at Arlington National Cemetery. On June 19, the NPS transferred the remains of the two soldiers to the Army. The Army will inter the remains at Arlington National Cemetery in two caskets made by park rangers from a fallen tree on the battlefield. On Aug. 30, 1862, the day these soldiers were likely wounded, federal troops were ordered to cross an open field, assailed by crushing artillery fire and withering infantry fire from an elevated, entrenched Confederate position. Like many others that day, these soldiers gave the last full measure doing their duty. Being laid to rest in Arlington National Cemetery will honor their memory and the sacrifice of so many service members throughout our nation’s history. - National Park Service

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY, FOR REVISION OF RATE ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE: RIDER W, WARREN COUNTY POWER STATION CASE NO. PUR-2018-00087 •Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia ("Dominion") has applied for approval to revise its rate adjustment clause, Rider W. •Dominion requests a total revenue requirement of $107.113 million for its 2019 Rider W. •A Hearing Examiner appointed by the Commission will hear the case on November 8, 2018, at 10 a.m. •Further information about this case is available on the State Corporation Commission's website at: http://www.scc.virginia.gov/ case. On June 1, 2018, Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia ("Dominion" or "Company"), pursuant to § 56-585.1 A 6 of the Code of Virginia ("Code"), filed with the State Corporation Commission ("Commission") an annual update of the Company's rate adjustment clause, Rider W ("Application"). Through its Application, the Company seeks to recover costs associated with the Warren County Power Station ("Warren County Project" or "Project"), a 1,342 megawatt nominal natural gasfired combined-cycle electric generating facility and associated transmission interconnection facilities located in Warren County, Virginia. In 2012, the Commission approved Dominion's construction and operation of the Warren County Project and also approved a rate adjustment clause, designated Rider W, for Dominion to recover costs associated with the Project. The Warren County Project became fully operational in 2014. In this proceeding, Dominion has asked the Commission to approve Rider W for the rate year beginning April 1, 2019, and ending March 31, 2020 ("2019 Rate Year"). The two components of the proposed total revenue requirement for the 2019 Rate Year are the Projected Cost Recovery Factor and the Actual Cost True-Up Factor. The Company is requesting a Projected Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement of $103,327,000 and an Actual Cost True-Up Factor revenue requirement of $3,786,000. Thus, the Company is requesting a total revenue requirement of $107,113,000 for service rendered during the 2019 Rate Year. For purposes of calculating the Projected Cost Recovery Factor in this case, Dominion utilized a rate of return on common equity ("ROE") of 10.2% which comprises a general ROE of 9.2% approved by the Commission in its Final Order in Case No. PUR2017-00038, plus a 100 basis point enhanced return applicable to a combined-cycle generating station as described in § 56-585.1 A 6 of the Code. For purposes of calculating the Actual Cost True-Up Factor, the Company utilized an ROE of 10.6% for the months of January 2017 through March 2017, which comprises the general ROE of 9.6% approved by the Commission in its Final Order in Case No. PUE-2015-00061, plus the 100 basis point enhanced return; an ROE of 10.4% for the period of April 1, 2017, through November 28, 2017, which comprises the general ROE of 9.4% approved by the Commission in its Order in Case No. PUE-201600063, plus the 100 basis point enhanced return; and an ROE of 10.2% for the period of November 29, 2017, through December 31, 2017, which comprises the general ROE of 9.2% approved by the Commission in its 2017 ROE Order, plus the 100 basis point enhanced return. If the proposed Rider W for the 2019 Rate Year is approved, the impact on customer bills would depend on the customer's rate schedule and usage. According to Dominion, implementation of its proposed Rider Won April 1, 2019, would increase the bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by approximately $0.03. The Company proposes a change in the methodology for the calculation of a certain allocation factor beginning in 2018 to recognize the output of certain non-utility generators to be used to allocate cost responsibility to the Virginia jurisdiction. In addition, with the exception of the removal of certain Federal and retail choice customers from the Virginia jurisdiction, the Company indicates it has calculated the proposed Rider W rates in accordance with the same methodology as used for rates approved by the Commission in the most recent Rider W proceeding, Case No. PUR-2017-00074. Interested persons are encouraged to review the Application and supporting documents for the details of these and other proposals. TAKE NOTICE that the Commission may apportion revenues among customer classes and/or design rates in a manner differing from that shown in the Application and supporting documents and thus may adopt rates that differ from those appearing in the Company's Application and supporting documents. The Commission entered an Order for Notice and Hearing that, among other things, scheduled a public hearing on November 8, 2018, at 10 a.m., in the Commission's second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, to receive testimony from members of the public and evidence related to the Application from the Company, any respondents, and the Commission's Staff.

Boo, a 2-year-old short-haired cat, residing at the Prince William County Animal Shelter, is good with kids and other pets and needs a new home.
‘Spay it Forward’ aims to encourage cat adoptions Staff Reports An overabundance of cats at the Prince William County Animal Shelter has resulted in a good deal for those looking to add a feline member of the family. In an effort to increase adoptions, the Prince William SPCA is sponsoring a “Spay it Forward” promotion through the end of June. The program underwrites the cost of the spay/neuter surgeries for all cats 1 year or older adopted from the Prince William County Animal Shelter, according to the news release. All intact cats require the spay/ neuter surgery, which currently costs between $90 and $145, on top of the $45 adoption fee, thus the program effectively reduces the cost of adopting a cat to $45. This includes a rabies vaccine, microchip, distemper combo vaccine, and spay/neuter surgery, according to a press release. “Kittens are in high demand to be adopted, but once the cats reach one year, they often are overlooked – especially if they are not spayed or neutered,” shelter officials said in the news release. “The surgery fee can be a deterrent to families who may look elsewhere when seeking to adopt a cat, according to the Prince William SPCA.” The shelter recently reached the maximum capacity for cats and has implemented a managed-intake policy that will likely continue through October, according to a news release. “The shelter is currently managing its intake of cats to prevent overcrowded conditions that lead to disease and stress,” the news release said. Visit the shelter at 14807 Bristow Road, Manassas, during normal hours of operation and on the Prince William SPCA’s P.A.W. Express mobile adoption van. For more information on the mobile van, visit the Prince William SPCA website at www.pwspca.org. If adopting a cat is not an option right now, consider fostering. Providing a foster home to a shelter cat is temporary, allowing the cats to wait in a home environment. For more information, call the animal shelter at 703-792-6465.

Rainbow Rock Band uses music to get kids moving Staff Reports
The Rainbow Rock Band, a perennial favorite at Prince William County libraries, recently gave an energetic performance with songs, dancing and props at the Lake Ridge Neighborhood Library. Kate Moran, also known as the Rainbow Lady with her rainbow-colored hair, and Mister Melody, also known as the guitar playing Matthew Berry, use music to teach children shapes, colors, music and movement. “Our show is about getting kids up and moving. Using fitness and movement helps expedite learning,” Moran said. Songs such as “Squirrel in My Cupcake,” “Superheroes,” “Crazy Cakes,” “Bob the Butterfly,” “Sparkle Fairy” and “Alligator Noodles,” got the children moving while they learned. “I want the kids to have an amazing time,” Moran said. “I want them to walk away feeling love in their hearts and learn a little something along the way.” George Wollan of Lake Ridge,

Violins. Violas. Do you know the difference? What about cellos and harps? Do you know how many strings are on a harp? A few members of the Old Bridge Chamber Orchestra recently visited the Montclair Community Library to help give children an appreciation for and educational experience with classical music. Aysha Burt, a fifth-grade teacher who will be teaching at Benita Fitzgerald Elementary School in the coming school year, led the discussion at the Musical Instrument Petting Zoo with musicians that included her sister Sheyna Burt on violin, Chris Dixon also on violin, Joan Burdette on cello and Ann Levy on viola. The musicians showed the children the difference between a violin and a viola. They learned how the cello sounds, and they learned how many strings are on a harp. Aysha said the concert for the children was aimed at entertaining, as well as teaching and possibly motivating them. “I hope that kids get a sense of music in a way that gets them interested in orchestral music, musical sounds that come from instruments they’ve never seen before, never heard before,” Aysha said. “If they have heard them before, they get to see them in real life for the first time.” Aysha also said that hearing classical music might give children a new perspective on music and listening. “It helps them get a new view of what musical instruments are. It’s not just keyboards. It’s not just the guitar. It widens their perspective, which is good for our kids,” she said. Sheyna Burt said that she has two answers about why children should be exposed to all kinds of music. “The nerdy answer is that there are scientific studies that say it’s good for their development. It’s good for their brains. It makes them better learners, more well-rounded,” she said. “The passionate answer is that the broader their exposure to things that are different from what they see every day, the better humans they become.” Sheyna said she gets a kick out of performing at libraries. “I love it. I know what it meant to me to be exposed to it. I feel compelled to give that back,” she said. The quartet from the chamber orchestra has the following appearances scheduled at other libraries across the county: • June 28, 2:30 p.m. – Central Community Library, 8601 Mathis Ave., Manassas; • July 21, 2 p.m. – Bull Run Regional Library, 8051 Ashton Ave., Manassas; • July 25, 2 p.m. – Potomac Community Library, 2201 Opitz Blvd., Woodbridge; • Aug. 2, 10:30 a.m. – Chinn Park Regional Library, 13065 Chinn Park Drive, Woodbridge.

In defense of truth On the face of it, truth would seem to be undeniable. Facts are facts. True and false. Right and wrong. Real and unreal. And yet, we are living in a time when “truth” can be open to interpretation, when falsehoods are spread by partisan media outlets -- and more troubling, our highest elected officials -- with relative ease. None of this is new. By nature, the nation is susceptible to lies. The controversial Sedition Act of 1798 criminalized making false statements critical of the federal government. (It expired after the election of Thomas Jefferson). William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer saw the money in sensationalism, providing the “yellow journalism” of the late 1800s that would, among other things, drive us into a war with Spain. The current climate saw its rise in the partisan world of talk radio and television, where bombastic entertainers expound on issues of the day and make unchecked proclamations about motives and agendas. The 24-hour news channels helped by creating so many time slots that need filling. FinalOUR VIEW ly, the rise of social media makes it easier than ever to share all those opinions, whether based in truth or not. Things haven’t changed much from Hearst’s time. Telling the audience what it wants to hear is a money-making proposition. And audiences, with today’s options at its disposal, are all too willing to climb into an echo chamber. As the
population becomes increasingly dissatisfied with its elected leaders and increasingly subscribes to partisan dogma, individuals have less interaction with other lines of thought and become far less receptive to ideas that challenges their core beliefs. In short, it’s simply easier to believe only that which confirms what we already suspect. Politicians, eager to keep their core supporters and get re-elected, are all too happy to feed on that. Perhaps that’s what motivates our highest elected officials – indeed, our president – to make statements
completely at odds with the facts. And if the media calls them on it, to declare the media biased. And if fact-checkers prove certain statements incorrect, to deem the fact-checkers biased. If science itself doesn’t back up the premise, to question the validity of science. If the courts rule against it, to blame partisan judges. This is all a very dangerous road. Truth is supposed to be one of the things that makes the U.S. exceptional. When we espouse “truth, justice and the American way,” the
world looks to us and to our leaders to be honest and forthright. If the world doesn’t trust us, if what it hear from our leaders, from all of us, are lies, then those promises are meaningless. We become a nation of lies. The truth isn’t easy. It means accepting things we don’t like. It means that when we hear something that seems too good to be true, we need to research and verify it. The truth is work. It takes time and effort. Sometimes, it means admitting we are wrong. But the truth is worth it.
Forget ‘casting shadows,’ Corey Stewart’s Sen. Tim Kaine a better choice over damage to Prince William is already dark Stewart’s ‘vicious’ campaign Regarding the June 20 article, “Will Stewart’s spotlight cast a shadow on Prince William?” We’re more concerned his U.S. Senate campaign will deepen the darkness he’s already inflicted. His embarrassing campaign antics are just the “tip of the iceberg” of his negative impact on our county. Stewart’s failures and refusal to “just say no” to new home developers – and their campaign contributions – has brought us the worst classroom overcrowding in all of Virginia, some of the worst traffic congestion in the nation, and has increased violent crime and many other major problems identified in our report, “What County Supervisors Don’t Want You to Know.” Stewart’s performance as a county supervisor would have gotten him fired years ago if he worked in the private sector. Low voter turnout in off-year elections has kept him in office, but he
won’t have that advantage if he runs for re-election next year. The growing number of citizen activists who exposed failures, revealed the truth, got out the vote and removed entrenched state delegates in last year’s upset election remain hard at work. As usual, Stewart will continue to try to hide his record of failure behind Civil War monuments, assault-rifle giveaways, rolls of toilet paper and anything else he thinks might distract voter attention away from the truth. And, like a schoolyard bully and political con artist whose only interest is getting elected, he’ll continue to promote hatred to try to divide the citizens who would be his constituents. Doug Widener founder of Citizens Alliance for Prince William County Gainesville
I was disappointed to read of Corey Stewart’s plan to launch a “vicious” campaign against Sen. Tim Kaine. We have lived through enough viciousness in the past two years of the Trump Administration. He has done considerable damage to our economy and to foreign affairs. Trump is lauded for improvements in the economy. He orchestrated a huge tax cut for corporations and billionaires, money that could have been spent on the infrastructure improvements he promised during the 2016 campaign. This is like playing with credit card balances: rich when one can borrow but very, very poor when the balances come due. In this case, the national debt has climbed another $1 trillion dollars. What happens next year? Another tax cut? Renewal? Also, many economists point out that the strong business cycle
of the Obama years is still supporting our economy. Obama got us out of the worst recession since 1929. Trump has attempted to destroy our foreign policy. Comrade Putin has wanted to do this for years. Trump is doing Putin’s grunt work, starting with NATO and the G-7. His questionable competence in dealing with tariffs may also do considerable damage to our manufacturing and agricultural economy. If Corey wants to play vicious, he can study the Trump case in which the Russians orchestrated Trump’s winning in 2016. Trump has also treated immigrant families with viciousness and incompetence. Senator Kaine has worked for peace, stability and the values that have made America great. Trump is trying to destroy them. Kevin Raymond Woodbridge

Who Do You Think You Are? RELIC is Available to Help You Find Out While most of us are not likely to be asked to have our own family history researched on the popular television show, we do have the next best thing to help us right here in Prince William County and – even better – it’s open to the public free of charge. The Ruth E. Lloyd Information Center (RELIC) is a special collection devoted to genealogy and local history with a focus on Virginia and Prince William County. Located at Bull Run Regional Library, it is open and staffed during Library hours. The staff are trained to help customers locate information needed to trace their family history and to research persons, places and events associated with local histo-
ry. The American Revolution and the Civil War as they relate to Virginia are of special interest. One such story of war brought to a close a 70-year mystery. “650 men would lose their lives on the night of July 7th, 1944 in the Battle of Saipan. Twenty-four year old Prince William County resident Prince Richard N. Bean was among those men. Bean’s body never came home and – for 70 years – his story remained a mystery. That is, until the answers walked through the doors of the Bull Run Regional Library.” In 2014, two Japanese visitors traveled over 6,000 miles to help solve the mystery. After visiting the Manassas Museum and Manassas
City Hall, they were encouraged to visit RELIC in hopes of finding living relatives of Sgt. Bean. Thanks to the wealth of knowledge available at RELIC, staff were able to find the living nephew and notify him that his uncle’s body would be returned to the United States. While not all stories can be as remarkable as bringing a soldier home to his final resting place, another resident talks about her own experience and what RELIC has meant to her. “Genealogy is more than just finding out about who your grandparents are. It’s kind of like playing detective. If it weren’t for RELIC, I probably never would have gone into genealogy.”
In addition to the wide variety of materials related to its mission, including published and manuscript materials, indexes and research guides, photographs, maps, microforms, and computer (CD-ROM) databases, RELIC also offers free programs throughout the year. This summer, five courses will be offered at Bull Run. To learn more about RELIC, visit the Research section on PWPLS’s website, www.pwcgov.org/library. If you require individual assistance or traveling from a distance, you may wish to call 703-792-4540 or email relic2@pwcgov.org to verify the hours when RELIC staff will be available.

Youth For Tomorrow pledges to reunite kids with families CEO Gary Jones expects most immigrant children at the Bristow facility to be released to relatives within two weeks
U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine, right, met Friday, June 22, with migrant children separated from their parents at the U.S. border who are now being housed at Youth For Tomorrow in Bristow. Above, Kaine and Sen. Mark Warner, left, meet with immigrant advocates in Arlington Thursday, June 21, to discuss families recently separated by government officials at the U.S. border.
By Jill Palermo and Jonathan Hunley Times Staff Writers
Youth For Tomorrow’s Chief Executive Officer Gary L. Jones said Monday he expects most of the 15 migrant children recently brought to their Bristow facility after being separated from parents or relatives at the U.S. border will be reunited with their families within two weeks. The nonprofit, launched by former Washington Redskins Coach Joe Gibbs in 1986, is housing 15 immigrant children between the ages of 10 and 17 who were forcibly sepa-

Youth For Tomorrow has been in contact with 14 of the 15 families involved. Jones said he anticipates all

The Prince William/Gainesville Times has not been able to independently verify that the reunifications are pending. Located on Linton Hall Road, Youth For Tomorrow has been caring for immigrant teens for six years under a federal contract. But until recently, those were teens who arrived at the border on their own, without a parent or guardian. The organization also works to reunite children in those situations with family members. “That’s what we do here is reunite children with their families,” Jones said. Senator confirms YFT housing kids separated from parents. Until Friday it had been unclear if Youth For Tomorrow was housing children separated from their families.

Remembering Christopher In the wake of stepson’s death, grieving stepdad finds solace in encouraging other teens By Jonathan Hunley Times Staff Writer
Joel Martinez wants to turn a bad decision into a lesson on good decisions that he hopes to share with other families. The bad decision was that of his stepson, Douglas Christopher Portillo, 15, who died in a car crash June 8 in Lorton. Christopher was one of five Prince William County boys who were in a Nissan Maxima that hit a tree and flipped on Furnace Road on the last day of school. See PORTILLO, Page 4
