Prosecutors, defense rest in Hamilton case
Army staff sergeant faces death penalty or life in prison
Prince William County police Officer Ashley Guindon, 28, left, and Crystal Hamilton, 29, were fatally shot Feb. 27, 2016, at Ronald and Crystal Hamilton’s Woodbridge home. Ronald Hamilton is on trial for capital murder for their deaths.
By Amanda Heincer Times Staff Writer
The case of the Woodbridge man charged with capital murder and other crimes for the fatal shootings of his wife and a Prince William County police officer in February 2016 is now in the hands of the jury. Ronald Williams Hamilton, 34, has pleaded not guilty to the fatal shootings Feb. 27, 2016, of his wife, Crystal Hamilton, and Prince William County Police Officer Ashley
Guindon, and to the shootings of two other police officers who suffered serious injuries but survived the incident. Jurors were scheduled to hear closing arguments in the case Tuesday. After six days of witness testimony,
prosecutors rested their case against Hamilton Wednesday, Sept. 19. During the prosecutors’ case, which they presented over the course of six days, jurors heard testimony from about two dozen witnesses, including the two surviving officers; other officers who responded to the
scene; neighbors and others who witnesses part of the day’s events. Prosecutors also questioned doctors and paramedics who treated the injured officers and a medical examiner who performed autopsies on the victims. On the first day of testimony, Tuesday, Sept. 11, jurors heard a statement from Ronald and Crystal Hamilton’s then-11-year-old son who hid in his bedroom as his mother was shot with a handgun and when his father shot at officers with his AK-47 from inside the foyer of their Woodbridge home. The boy’s grandmother, Crystal Hamilton’s mother, read the statement in court. Defense attorneys called one witness to the stand: Prince William County police Detective Caillen See HAMILTON, Page 3

Despite long-standing concerns about school overcrowding and worsening traffic, the Prince William County Planning Commission gave its blessing last week to the latest iteration of the now-defunct Stonehaven development, now a new project dubbed “the Devlin Community,” which proposes 551 new homes in Brentsville. The project is planned to include only single-family homes offered at a price of $600,000 or more. The community is being developed by Stanley Martin Homes on 269 acres in the area of Linton Hall Road, Devlin Road and University Boulevard. It will be adjacent to Chris Yung Elementary School and the site of the county’s 13th high school, See DEVLIN, Page 2

which is scheduled to open in 2021. During its meeting Wednesday, Sept. 19, the planning commission voted 6 to 1, with Commissioner Bruce Edgar Holley (Neabsco) abstaining, to recommend the board of supervisors rezone the land from its current A-1, or agricultural designation, to “planned mixed residential” to allow for the new development. The lone dissenting vote came from Commissioner Patti McKay, whose Brentsville District would encompass the new development. McKay acknowledged the number of homes planned “is not bad” given the size of the development. By comparison, the failed Stonehaven development proposed more than 1,000 homes on 714 acres. Still, McKay said the new homes’ residents will only exacerbate school overcrowding and traffic woes – two topics repeated by 15 residents who spoke against the development during a public hearing that preceded the vote. Six people spoke in favor of the development. “Yes, there will be a 13th high school, but it’s going to be overcrowded, and this isn’t going to help,” McKay said, adding that the area already suffers “serious [traffic] gridlock.” “I feel your pain,” she said to

unhappy area residents in the audience. “And I feel that it should weigh heavily upon us.” McKay moved to deny approval of the project, which failed in a 2-to6 vote. She then proposed a second motion to defer it, which failed in a 3-to-5 vote. Only Holley voted with McKay to deny approving the development, while Holley and Commissioner Richard Berry (Gainesville) voted with her to defer it. Commissioner William Milne (Occoquan) made the motion to recommend that the board of supervisors approve the Devlin Road development with a long list of conditions. Among other things, Milne asked developer Stanley Martin to: increase lot sizes from a minimum 6,000 to 10,000 square feet; move 43 lots further away from the existing high-voltage power lines on the northern edge of the development; add pedestrian paths to Chris Yung Elementary and nearby Bristow Commons shopping center; add a bus stop on Devlin Road; and boost overall open space to 30 percent. In approving the project, the commissioners noted its $24.9 million in promised proffers, including $11.4 million to the school division and $9.2 million for transportation improvements.

Brentsville supervisor opposed
Still, Supervisor Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville, said Friday she continues to oppose the development as proposed. She said her top concerns are impacts to schools and roads. Lawson said she had asked the developer “not to be in a hurry” with the project because of those issues. “Patti did an excellent job,” Lawson said of McKay’s efforts to deny or defer the project. “I was thankful, that when it was approved it was with a long list of things to be corrected… But I, too, was also disappointed the other [planning] commissioners didn’t show more deference to the district commissioner.” Lawson notes that a new grade-separated intersection at Balls Ford Road and Va. 234, funded as part of the Interstate 66 widening project, will include the widening of Devlin Road to Janell Road, but not until 2023. The first homes are slated to be finished in 2021. Although the developer has promised more than $9 million in transportation proffers, used in part to widen Devlin Road from Janell to University Boulevard, the result will leave what Lawson called “an hourglass effect” on Devlin Road.
376 new students projected
And, while the 13th high school will also be ready to open in 2021, Lawson notes that it will already be filled to capacity, or nearly so, by re-
lieving overcrowding at other western Prince William high schools: Battlefield, Patriot and Stonewall Jackson. According to school division estimates, the new homes will produce a total of 376 school-age students, including 164 at the elementary level, 90 at the middle school level and 122 at the high school level. Of the area’s schools, the middle and high schools are overcrowded now and will remain so in 10 years, even with the addition of a 2,500-student 13th high school. A new middle school is slated to be built in the area in 2024, but it too will be relied upon to relieve existing overcrowding in nearby middle schools. Similarly, Chris Yung Elementary, while not currently overcrowded, is slated to be overcrowded in 10 years with no relief planned. Lawson led the opposition to the former Stonehaven project, which included a proffered site for the 13th high school, on the argument that the previously proposed 1,000 homes would perpetuate school overcrowding. The school division ended up purchasing land for the 13th high school from the owners of the Devlin Road property after the Stonehaven application was withdrawn. “There’s so much pressure on our school system, I just continue to believe we are repeating this failure by approving this project,” Lawson said.

Man guilty of felony murder, arson in 2016 Manassas fire By Amanda Heincer Times Staff Writer
A man charged in connection with a Manassas-area house fire that killed a 36-year-old man and a 17-year-old boy in 2016 was convicted Monday in Prince William Circuit Court of felony murder and arson charges. Noe Antonio Nolasco Amaya entered Alford pleas of guilty to two counts of felony murder and one count of arson for the July 31, 2016, fire on the 10300 block of Lomond Drive, in the Manassas area of Prince William County, that killed Willian Alexander Molina-Rivas, 36, and Jose Javier Avalos, 17. In an Alford plea, a defendant does not admit guilt but acknowledges prosecutors have enough evidence to convict him if the case were to go to trial. The felony murder charges allege that Nolasco Amaya accidentally killed the victims while committing another crime. As part of a plea agreement, prosecutors dropped two charges of first-degree murder. Just before 12:30 a.m. on July 31,
Prosecutors, defense rest in Hamilton case HAMILTON, from Page 1 Smith, the lead detective in the case who interviewed Ronald Hamilton on the night of the shootings. The defense rested their case on the same day they began, on Thursday, Sept. 20. Smith testified that he interviewed Officer David McKeown, one of the injured officers, at his home about a month after the shooting.
Defense: Shootings not proven premeditated
Smith also testified that he interviewed Hamilton twice on the night of the shooting, at the police station. Smith testified that Hamilton told him that he and his wife had been arguing before the shooting. Smith did not testify about exactly what Hamilton said in the interviews, because prosecutors successfully argued that would be inadmissible hearsay. Defense attorneys argued unsuccessfully that Judge Steven S. Smith should strike some of the charges against Hamilton before the case went to the jury. In part, defense attorney Gene Hart argued that prosecutors did not present enough evidence to prove that the shootings were premeditated and failed to prove that Hamilton acted with malice and not “in the heat of passion.” Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Richard Conway argued that Hamilton’s actions – particularly Hamilton’s choice to switch from
2016, police responded to reports of a fire at a house on the 10300 block of Lomond Drive, Prince William County police said at the time. Noe Antonio In court Nolasco Amaya Monday, Sept. 24, Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Claiborne Richardson said the first officer who arrived on scene tried to extinguish the flames at the house but couldn’t. Firefighters then arrived and were eventually able to force their way into the home, he said. “The firefighters were able to gain access by kicking in the door. The door was locked,” Richardson said. Once in the home, firefighters found Avalos’s body lying face down in the house by the door, Richardson said. Firefighters then found the second body, Molina-Rivas, and pulled both from the home. Both men died a handgun to an AK-47 rifle when confronting police officers after he fatally shot his wife – showed his intent. In a secRonald Williams ond motion to Hamilton strike, Hart unsuccessfully argued prosecutors had not presented evidence to prove the cause of death of the two homicide victims. In a previous motion hearing, Smith ruled that expert opinion testimony, including the medical examiner’s cause of death opinion, would not be allowed in the case because prosecutors missed a key deadline related to that evidence. “There is simply no evidence in the record to establish a cause of death,” Hart said. Conway argued that “there are many ways the commonwealth can show cause of death in a homicide case.” While the medical examiner didn’t testify about the cause of death, Conway said, other evidence to prove cause of death was presented to the jurors. The judge denied the defense motions. Jurors are expected to begin deliberations this week. If the jury convicts Hamilton, a second phase of the trial, the sentencing phase, will begin. If convicted of any of the three capital murder charges he faces, Hamilton could be sentenced to death or to life in prison. Reach Amanda Heincer at aheincer@fauquier.com
of their injuries. The medical examiner’s report said the cause of their deaths was “thermal and inhalation injuries” from the fire, Richardson said. A short time later, around 1:45 a.m., police found Nolasco Amaya walking in the area of Manassas Mall, police said at the time. He had burns below his knees and on the front of his legs and the top of his feet, Richardson said. He was taken to an area hospital for treatment. Police and rescue workers responding to the house at the time of the fire reported “smelling gasoline throughout the foyer area of the home,” Richardson said. Investigators found gasoline throughout the house and on the clothes Avalos and Molina-Rivas had been wearing, Richardson said. No gasoline was found on Nolasco Amaya’s clothes. Investigators determined that the fire had been set, Richardson said. Sylvia Flores, the mother of the 17-year-old victim, told investigators “there had been some problems” between Avalos and Molina-Rivas and Nolasco Amaya, who all lived in the home. Just before the night of the fire, Flores argued with Nolasco Amaya and “told him to leave the house,” Richardson said. Flores and her husband were not home at the time of the fire, Richardson said, and “a couple of people”
who lived in the basement were able to escape the fire safely, he said. Richardson said Nolasco Amaya made several conflicting statements to police, first saying he didn’t know what happened the night of the fire, then saying someone else came into the house and threw gasoline on him and later saying he might have run into the room to try to help after the fire broke out, Richardson said. Family members of the victims filled one row of the courtroom at Monday’s hearing. “They have suffered a great loss,” Richardson said of the family. “Not only the loss of a beloved family member and friend [but also] the damage that was done to their home.” Prosecutors agreed to recommend a sentence of 15 years in prison, with five years suspended, for each charge. The recommended sentence would give Nolasco Amaya a total of 15 years to serve in prison. A judge will sentence Nolasco Amaya on Feb. 7. The judge is not required to follow the prosecutors’ recommendation. At the end of the hearing, Judge Steven Smith addressed the victims’ family members, thanking them for coming and expressing his sympathy. “My heart goes out to you,” he said.

17-year-old killed in Gainesville hit-and-run crash A 17-year-old Maryland boy died after he was struck by a car on Sudley Road, near Gainesville, as he attempted to run across the roadway, according to police. Police are looking for the driver of a white, four-door Chrysler 300 that left the scene after the boy was struck. The vehicle has possible damage to the front, driver’s side headlight, according to a Prince William County Police Department press release. The boy’s identity is not being released “because of legal restric-
tions,” the press release said. The crash was reported to police at 2:29 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 22. The 17-year-old, a family member and a coworker were sitting in a truck parked in the westbound lane of Sudley Road. The truck's headlights were on, but it was facing east in the westbound lane of the road, the press release said. The three had just finished a sealcoat job at a residence in the area of Sudley Road and Catharpin Road when they were sitting in the parked truck, the press release said. When a westbound sedan ap-
proached the truck, the three jumped out of the truck as they believed the sedan might hit the truck. The speed limit on Sudley Road in that area is 50 miles per hour, the press release said. Two of the people in the car were able to avoid the approaching car, but the 17-year-old ran into the eastbound lane just as the sedan swerved into the eastbound lane, apparently to avoid hitting the parked truck, the police press release said. The striking vehicle stopped a short distance away from the scene before continuing westbound on
Sudley Road. The driver never exited the vehicle, the press release said. The teen died as a result of his injuries at the scene. No other injuries were reported, the press release said. Neither the victim nor his companions were wearing reflective vests, nor were roadway signs or cones placed along the roadway to warn of the obstructing parked truck, the press release said. Anyone who may have witnessed this incident is asked to contact Prince William County Police at 703-792-6500.

got out and checked his vehicle and then proceeded to get back in his vehicle and drive away, heading northbound, Perok said. The driver is described as a white man in his 30s. The park ranger was not able to tell police the make or model of his blue vehicle, Perok said. The victim was transported to an area hospital where he died as a result of his injuries. Following an autopsy completed Wednesday, police now have reason to believe two vehicles were involved in the man’s death, Perok said a police press release. Vehicle parts recovered from the scene indicate one of the vehicles possibly involved was a 2014-16 Jeep Grand Cherokee, the press release said. The victim was not near a designated crosswalk when he was initially
located lying in the roadway. Alcohol is believed to have played a role in the man’s death, the press release said. Anyone who may have witnessed this incident is asked to contact Prince William County Police at 703-792-6500.

When the victim ran away, several shots were fired, the press release said. The victim ran into a nearby business where he contacted police. A short time later, a responding officer located the victim’s stolen vehicle in the area of Larkin Drive near the dead-end of Yew Grove Drive, where the driver and a passenger fled on foot.

Dumfries man arrested for filming woman in Walmart restroom
Police arrested a 27-year-old Dumfries man on Thursday, Sept. 20, in connection with an “unlawful filming” incident that took place Saturday, Sept. 8 at the Dumfries Walmart, according to a Prince William County police press release. A 22-year-old woman reported to police she was using the re-
stroom inside the Walmart, 17041 Jefferson Davis Highway in Dumfries, when she observed an unknown man slip a cell phone underneath the stall door and possibly record Christopher Halverson or photograph her, the press release said. Officers arrested Christopher Erik Halverson, 27, of Brady’s Hill Road in Dumfries, and charged him with unlawful filming and peeping in connection with the incident.

A Dumfries man was arrested Saturday, Sept. 22, after police found a 22-month-old boy unattended inside a vehicle parked outside an Applebee’s restaurant in Woodbridge. Police responded to the restaurant, at 3330 Pine Bluff Drive in Woodbridge, at 12:40 a.m. Sept. 22, after a child was reportedly located unattended inside of a vehicle in the parking lot. Upon arrival, officers located and detained the accused who appeared to be intoxicated, according to a Prince William County Police Department press release. The investigation revealed child was left inside the vehicle while the
accused was inside the restaurant.

Support for Medicaid County to Expansion grows in Virginia manage Several months after Virginia lawmakers decided to expand Medicaid, public support for the public healthcare expansion has now reached its highest level -- 76 percent -- while 18 percent oppose it, according to a new University of Mary Washington statewide survey. In five previous statewide UMW surveys, support for the expansion idea has ranged from 59 percent in September 2013 to 70 percent in September 2017, according to a press release
“While public support for Medicaid expansion has been strong for years, the latest Mary Washington survey demonstrates that Virginia Republicans were wise to remove this issue from the policy agenda,” said Stephen J. Farnsworth, professor of political science at the University of Mary Washington and director of its Center for Leadership and Media Studies. “When public opinion varies from party preferences, the smart political move is to compromise and change the subject.”
PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD MARINE CORPS BASE QUANTICO MUNITIONS RESPONSE SITE PRIORITIZATION PROTOCOL The Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Washington announces the update of the Department of Defense’s Munitions Response Site Prioritization Protocol (MRSPP) scoring for four sites at the Marine Corps Base Quantico (MCBQ) in Quantico, Virginia: UXO 031 – Camp Barrett Training Areas 5 and 8 UXO 037 – Chopawamsic Creek Range Fans UXO 038 – Lunga Recreation Area Central UXO 039 – Lunga Recreation Area North The MRSPP is used to assess sites that may have unexploded ordnance, discarded military munitions, and/or munitions constituents and to assign priorities for any additional investigation or munitions removal that may be required. Evaluation criteria, including the types of munitions that may be present, ease of public access to the site, and the number of people living near the site, are considered through the application of the MRSPP. The MRSPP scoring for the four sites have been updated based on information obtained through the Munitions Response Program activities implemented at MCBQ. Community input is integral to the remedial process and public involvement is encouraged. Public comments on the MRSPP reports for these four sites will be accepted from September 26 through October 25, 2018. Comments must be postmarked no later than October 25, 2018.

The Hilda Barg Homeless Prevention Center is located on U.S. 1 in Woodbridge.
Prince William County officials will take over operation of the Hilda Barg Homeless Prevention Center, effective next month, because Northern Virginia Family Services no longer wants to run the 30-bed family shelter in Woodbridge. Also, no other private nonprofits submitted bids to take over the shelter’s operation, according to county documents. Prince William County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously on Tuesday, Sept. 18, to create 11 new positions to manage and staff the shelter, located on U.S. 1 in Woodbridge. The county had been paying Northern Virginia Family Services, also known as SERVE, $655,000 annually to run the shelter, according to Prince William spokesman Jason Grant. The county will not have to allocate additional money in its current budget to add the positions, which will be filled by the county’s Depart-
ment of Social Services, Grant said. In a statement, NFVS President and CEO Stephanie Berkowitz said her organization declined to continue the contract to allow the county to find a more fitting “long-term collaborator.” “NVFS was awarded the contract to operate the Hilda Barg Homeless Prevention Center in 2015 with the goal of helping to stabilize this resource critical to the county’s goal of addressing homelessness,” Berkowitz’s statement said. “After three years, we have decided to not to renew the contract in order for the county to find a long-term collaborator to best suit its needs going forward.” Grant said no such collaborator could be immediately found, resulting in the county taking over the shelter’s operations. “Bottom line, the contractor chose not to renew the contract, and we are able to continue the service at no additional cost to the taxpayers,” Grant said.

‘We Recover’ planned for Sunday in Old Town Manassas Event aims to empower, encourage those impacted by opioid, substance abuse By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
Northern Virginia’s first daylong event focused on issues surrounding recovery from opioid addiction and other forms of substance-use disorder will be held this Sunday in Old Town Manassas. The Harris Pavilion will be the site of the first-ever “We Recover,” a meeting of local and national leaders in the recovery movement designed to offer hope to those affected by substance use and mental health disorders and spark a community conversation about what is needed to help those caught in the grips of addiction. Organizer Katrina King, a Prince William County resident who struggled with her own addiction to prescription pain pills and lost her daughter Kirstyn to an opioid and Xanax overdose in 2011, said the event has multiple goals. It’s hoped to encourage and empower those in recovery and educate the community about gaps in support, King said. King is now a peer navigator working for George Mason University in the Empowered Communities Opioid Project. Her story was also featured in the FBI documentary “Chasing the Dragon.” “I think our target audience is those in recovery. We want them to have a
voice,” King said. “But ultimately, it is for everyone who is impacted [by substance use disorder]. We need to start to connect the dots to help the community mover forward.” The event is timed to coincide with National Recovery Month, which is September. Through her work with George Mason University and families struggling with addition, King has become familiar with the many gaps in local support. As an example, King cites space in sober-living homes. Prince William County currently has only three such homes for men recovering from addiction and one for women, King said. “One of the most fundamental of supports missing is housing,” King writes on a website publicizing the event. “No surprise, communities and legislators are lead to believe there is no hope and therefore do not allocate the needed funding to provide these wrap-

It will include a variety of speakers, known both regionally and nationally for their work in the recovery movement. One keynote speaker is author and TEDTalk participant Tim Ryan, author of “From Dope to Hope.” His presentation is scheduled for 1:50 to 2:20 p.m. Also a keynote speaker for the event is Richard Jones, of FAVOR, a peer-recovery center in Greenville, South Carolina.

King said the group chose Harris Pavilion because its centrally located in the county and accessible by public transportation. Katrina King, King said sevorganizer of “We eral involved in Recover” event the local recovery movement – including those who are themselves recovering from addiction – will have a direct hand in the event. King said she hopes the event will be an opportunity for local leaders and community members to see those affected by the crisis in a new light. “They need to see that the stereotypes about addicts are wrong,” King said. “And they need to see that not everyone [who struggles with addiction] dies, not everyone goes to prison. But if you don’t have something for people to go to – a Plan B – we’re going to continue to lose people coming out [of addiction] on the other side.” Organizers are still raising money to cover about $500 in remaining expenses related to the event.

Red Cross needs blood, platelet donations As the American Red Cross responds to Hurricane Florence, providing food, shelter and comfort to those affected, individuals outside the affected areas are urged to help by giving blood or platelets to care for patients in the storm’s path and across the country. People can also help by making a financial donation to support relief efforts Hurricane Florence’s wrath left catastrophic damage behind and also took a toll on blood and platelet donations. Nearly 200 Red Cross blood drives in the Southeast were forced to cancel, resulting in more than 5,200 uncollected blood and platelet donations. “Natural disasters like hurricanes can disrupt blood drives and prevent donors from giving, but hospital patients still depend on lifesaving transfusions,” said Cliff Numark, senior vice president, Red Cross Blood Services. “There is an especially critical need for platelets to help cancer patients and type O blood donations for ongoing patient care and emergencies. Every donation can be a lifeline for patients.” Donors of all blood types are urged to help

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY FOR APPROVAL TO ESTABLISH VOLUNTARY RATE, DESIGNATED RIDER CRC, PURSUANT TO § 56-234 B OF THE CODE OF VIRGINIA CASE NO. PUR-2018-00133
On August 15 2018, Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion” or “Company ) filed an application (“Application”) with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission ‘) pursuant to Enactment Clause 11 of Senate Bill 966,passed during the 2018 General Assembly Session (“Enactment Clause 11”)_, § 56 234 B of the Code of Virginia (“Code”), and Rule 80 of the Commissions Rules of Practice and _Procedure (“Rules of Practice”) or approval to establish a voluntary rate, designated Rider CRC, Manufacturing and Commercial Competitiveness Retention Credit Rider (“Rider CRC ). The Company states in its Application that Rider CRC is designed to support economic development in Dominion’s service territory-by offering a retention credit,. in the form or a two percent discount on the total monthly base generation charges to any eligible retail large general service customers who agree to take Electric Service, including Electricity Supply Service, as those terms are defined in the Company’s Terms and Conditions on file with the Commission exclusively from the Company for a period of at least three years. The Company further states that Enactment Clause 11 directs the Company to offer a retention credit to large manufacturing and commercial customers who are eligible to participate under the terms and conditions proposed in the Application. According to the Application, to participate in Rider CRC, large general service customers must currently take service pursuant to, or otherwise qualify to take service under: (1) Rate Schedule GS-3, Large General Service — Secondary Voltage; (2) Rate Schedule GS-4, Large General Service — Primary Voltage; or (3) any special rates or contracts approved pursuant to Code § 56-235.2 (each a “Principal Tariff subject to the following limitations. The Company. states that large general service customers who wish to subscribe to Rider CRC must not be receiving service from the Company under any experimental or pilot program tariff rate schedule, tariff rate schedule for market-based rates, tariff rate schedule to purchase 100% renewable energy, or companion tariff rate schedule, such as Rate Schedule MBR — GS-3, Large General Service — Secondary Voltage (Experimental), Rate Schedule MBR — GS-4, Large General Service — Primary Voltage (Experimental), or Schedule RF. The Company states that, to qualify for Rider CRC, an eligible large general service customer account (“Qualifying Account”) must-have, during the most recent calendar year, established a peak measured average 30-minute demand greater than 500 kilowatts, which did not exceed one percent of the Company’s peak road during the most recent calendar year, unless the customer had a noncoincident peak demand m excess of 90 megawatts in calendar year 2006 or any calendar year thereafter. The Company further states that a large general service customer wishing to participate in Rider CRC would be required to execute an Agreement for Electric Service (“ESA”) with the Company for each Qualifying Account that memorializes the customer’s election to volunteer for Rider CRC. The initial term of each ESA would be separately negotiated with each participating large general service customer; however the initial term would be for a period of at least three years (“TnitiaI Term”). Following the expiration oh the Initial Term, the ESA would automatically renew annually for additional one-year terms (each subsequent term referred to as a “Renewal Term”), unless and until the ESA is cancelled by written notice by either party at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. Once an ESA has been executed, the Company would make service under Rider CRC effective on the first day of the billing month immediately following the last regular meter reading date for each Qualifying Account. The two percent reduction m the total monthly base generation charges (billed by the Company to the Qualifying Account pursuant to the large general service customer’s existing Principal Tariff) would appear as a separate line item on the participating customer’s billing statement. The Company proposes to make Rider CRC effective for usage on and after the first day of the month that is at least 60 days following the date of the Commission’s final order in this proceeding. The Company also proposes to make annual reports to the Commission if Rider CRC is approved.

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM
In praise of LOVE signs and patience regarding Supreme Court decisions The unveiling of Warrenton’s new LOVE sign in Depot Park, and the wedding of “Mailman Mike” King to Monica Ann Fernandi, a yoga teacher at the Warrenton Aquatic and Recreational Facility, is the kind of story that highlights all that is positive about life in a small OUR VIEW town. A creative nod to the past that also highlights a local attraction, the Warrenton Branch Greenway, and the love between two popular members of the community are yet more examples that the tagline “Virginia is for lovers” can bring out the best in our commonwealth. In Prince William County, you can find love signs, also called “LOVEworks,” at Occoquan’s new(ish) River Mill Park, in Old Town Manassas near the Harris Pavilion and outside the main entrance of the Potomac Mills Mall. The new love sculpture in Warrenton, designed by local artist Dorothy Smith, is one of more than 125 around the state that are part of the "LOVEwork campaign." Its fun and unique railcar design is fitting for its setting in Depot Park. Across the street from Claire’s at the Depot and next to the Warrenton walking path, it’s worth a trip. The unveiling of the new love sign was originally scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 13, but was postponed a week due Hurricane Florence, which, while largely
leaving Virginia unscathed, did manage to take a toll on the state’s pocketbook. The Richmond Times-Dispatch reports Virginia officials committed to spending up to $60 million in preparations ahead of the storm, and the state spent much it. The majority went to three state shelters that ultimately housed just 52 people. Unsurprisingly, the cost has brewed up a storm of its own in Richmond. As evidenced in the Carolinas, Florence was a dangerous storm, and there is little doubt Virginia was right to be on alert. Had the storm taken the track predicted earlier in the week and the state not been prepared, the fallout would have been significant. But that eye-popping price tag -- $60 million -- is a steep and disturbing amount that indicates the state should thoroughly investigate these expenditures to better plan for future storms. — Speaking of storms, by the end of the week, we will likely have heard from both Judge Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford regarding allegations of sexual assault Ford, and now a second woman, have made against the Supreme Court nominee when he was in high school and college. Denver Riggleman, Republican candidate for the 5th District congressional seat, said in our offices last week: “Anybody who’s gone
“Who’s doing whom?” Denver Riggleman made that off-hand comment at the end of last week’s 5th District Congressional forum with Leslie Cockburn (D). But the audience called him out. Many people – men and women – responded to his attempt at a sexually suggestive joke, some even booing. It upset me then, but I didn’t give it much thought until today when
I read the latest allegations against Brett Kavanaugh. Although Riggleman (R) has called for an investigation of the first allegation against Kavanagh (Fauquier Times, Sept. 20), his primary focus is whether or not the allegation is being used for political gain. Our first concern should be whether or not a man who has been nominated for the highest court has
through this type of pain, you’ve got to investigate." We wholeheartedly agree. Time should be taken to do this right, for everyone’s sake. People in power, and the general public, should not rush to judgment without hearing from the parties involved and without a proper investigation of what has been alleged. This is not a case for armchair investigators, gut feelings and the court of public opinion. Judge Kavanaugh deserves the presumption of innocence, and his accusers deserve to be taken seriously. Semi-recent high-profile cases of sexual assault charges gone wrong -- including that of the 2006 case against members of the Duke University lacrosse team and the 2014 Rolling Stone article that accused a University of Virginia fraternity of gang rape – have proven the damage false accusations can wreak. But allegations of sexual assault
must never be dismissed, no matter who is involved. The Bureau of Justice Statistics' National Crime Victimization Survey points out 77 percent of incidents of rape and sexual assault were not reported to the police in 2017. The same study estimates that people in the U.S. experienced more than 320,000 incidents of rape and sexual assault — 1.2 such assaults per 1,000 people age 12 or older — in 2016, according to FiveThirtyEight. Much is at stake in Kavanaugh’s case. The allegations involve more than the reputation of a college fraternity or athletic team. He is a candidate for one of the most consequential jobs in the U.S. government -- an appointment to the nation’s highest court, which makes decisions that affect generations. The U.S. Senate must demand a fair and thorough process before rendering its decision. Politics can wait.
such disregard for women. Riggleman frequently talks about his wife and daughters. Does he consider other people’s wives, daughters, mothers, sisters? I cannot imagine the courage of the women who have made accusations against Kavanagh. As your article pointed out, Leslie Cockburn can: “’I have great admiration for Dr. Ford and her courage to come forward. Many of us remember Anita Hill and her shabby treatment by members of Congress. Dr.
Ford’s allegation of attempted rape deserves a full hearing. Assaulting a 15-year-old girl is not a youthful indiscretion,” Cockburn’s tweet said. I have five granddaughters. I want them growing up in a world where women are heard. There is only one person running in Virginia’s Congressional 5th who will fight for that, and that person is Leslie Cockburn. Kathryn Goldfarb Washington
Stewart, Riggleman views on allegations unacceptable Sexual assault and allegations of assault, regardless of when reported, if ever, are not “a bunch of crap” as Senate candidate Corey Stewart (R) stated (Sept. 19 Prince William Times). Likewise, accusing women of “weaponizing” an allegation of sexual assault for political gain, per candidate Denver Riggleman (R), is equally disgusting and unacceptable. It is well known that victims of sexual assault often keep quiet, often do not ever come forward, and do not report the assault for many
reasons individual to each victim. How do you report your father or your coach or your therapist or your priest or your boss or your “pillar of the community” neighbor sexually assaulting or raping you? How many reading this letter have been sexually assaulted and never said a word about it? Why have you kept quiet? Are there any circumstances that would trigger you to come forward? The Anita Hill debacle is being rerun with Professor Ford. It’s the
same old Senate-lifer white men on the Senate Judiciary Committee prejudging, bullying, and casting doubt on Professor Ford and using every tactic to disparage her and Senator Diane Feinstein (D). It’s the typical “deny and destroy the accuser” approach. President Trump is a sexual assaulter and predator by his own admission and has been caught using hush money to keep his victims quiet. Many of his victims have finally come forward and look at
how the president and the Republican machine are trashing and trying to destroy them. Candidate for Congress Leslie Cockburn (D) and Senate candidate Senator Tim Kaine (D) “get it” about sexual assault victims. It is incumbent on voters to elect and keep people of their moral quality in Congress. Nancy Treusch Warrenton

Student by day, NASCAR driver at night Brentsville High grad Mason Diaz zooms to 19th at Richmond Raceway By Noah Fleischman Special to the Times
Brentsville High alum Mason Diaz made his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut Friday night in the Go Bowling 250 under the lights at Richmond Raceway. Diaz, 18, was the youngest driver in the 40-car field full of NASCAR veterans headlined by superstar Dale Earnhardt Jr. Morgan Shepherd, a 50-year racing veteran, was the oldest in the field at 76. A freshman at Old Dominion University, Diaz finished 19th and was the last car on the lead lap. “It puts a lot of pressure on you [racing against NASCAR veterans],” Diaz said of the field. “Everyone who was out there races every other weekend and I’m just the new kid. They don’t know what I might do because I’ve never raced with them.” Driving the No. 90 Solid Rock Carriers Chevrolet in Richmond, Diaz raced for Brandonbilt Motorsports for the second time in his career. He raced with the same team last year in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Martinsville. He started 22nd after posting a personal best of 23.229 seconds during the second round of qualifying. After starting on the 11th row, Diaz quickly moved up to 20th for most of the race.

Just four months out of Brentsville High, Mason Diaz, 18, took 19th in a NASCAR Xfinity Series race last Friday at Richmond Raceway. He’s also a freshman at Old Dominion. “I was comfortable in 20th [because] I was just trying to log laps and learn,” Diaz said. “The car changed so much in the race from getting loose to tight and that made me need to change my groove around a lot, so being back there let me be able to change it without any pressure.” The Manassas native moved up to 17th place on lap 86, which was the first green flag lap of the second stage of the race. After a caution on the lap 162, Diaz was placed back on the lead lap by NASCAR as a beneficiary of the caution while running in the 19th position. Diaz finished 19th. He’ll take it. It was an improvement from last season’s truck series finish, where he finished 23rd at the half-mile track in Martinsville. “A top 20 in the Xfinity race is a win for me,” Diaz said. Diaz managed to stay away from any wrecks at Richmond, including
“I have set times to do homework and make sure it’s all done before I go to race because school is just as important to me.” Mason Diaz
a head-on collision with the inside wall by Ty Majeski on lap 145. Diaz’s race was his first in a stock car since Labor Day weekend. He took the time off to focus on his first semester of his freshman year at ODU. “I planned my [college] schedule around racing,” Diaz said. “I have classes Monday through Thursday, so I don’t have to miss classes as much [to travel to races]. I have set times to do homework and make sure it’s all done before I go to race because school is just as important to me.” Diaz grew up watching his idols race at Richmond and it was a dream come true for him to race on the very
track that they did. “It was cool to race under the lights,” Diaz said. “It was something I’ve always dreamed about doing since I was a kid going here and watching the cup races there.” The Go Bowling 250 possibly marked the end of an era, as it could be the last race of Earnhardt Jr.’s career. He started in second on the front row next to Christopher Bell, who went on to win the race. Earnhardt Jr. led a race-high 96 laps and earned a stage two win but settled for a fourth-place finish. “When I was racing late models in the 90’s probably [is the last time I had this much fun],” Earnhardt Jr. said on pit road after his first race in 306 days. Diaz won this year, capturing a late model race at New Smyrna Speedway in Florida on Feb. 16. He then went on to finish second in the Baby Rattler at South Alabama Speedway after leading for 45 laps.

I WANT THE BALL, COACH
With 787 yards in four games, James is Vikings’ one-man wrecking crew By Jeff Malmgren
“Not starting last year and the year before, that motivated me. Let me run the ball.”
Times Staff Writer
Lamonte James arrived at Woodbridge High three years ago hoping to earn a role as the Vikings’ starting running back. He instead landed lower on the depth chart as a sophomore and junior. Disappointed, James met one-onone with Woodbridge head coach Gary Wortham in April after the Vikings finished the 2017 season in November as a Class 6 state semifinalist. Coach, we need to talk. I want to be the starting running back here as a senior, not just a linebacker. Wortham wasn’t immediately convinced. “I explained to Lamonte, ‘Look, everybody has a role,’” the coach said. “’You’re going to have to prove it to me in camp.’” So James spent the offseason in the weight room, working on his strength and speed enough to make Wortham slide him into that starting running back spot during August. “He got stronger, he got faster and he’s living his dream right now,” Wortham said. “He looks pretty good.” On Friday, James produced his fourth consecutive 100-yard rushing

In just four games, Lamonte James has rushed for 787 yards. Woodbridge (4-0) visits Stonewall Jackson (2-3) Thursday at 7 p.m. performance of the season, giving the Vikings a 41-0 win over Forest Park and keeping them undefeated at 4-0. He set career-highs by rushing for 339 yards and four touchdowns, using 21 carries. “I feel bad because he’s been a hidden secret,” Wortham said. “I probably should have had him running the ball a whole lot more [last year]. Lamonte James is the real deal.” The senior already has 787 yards

and 10 touchdowns on 60 carries. So he averages an impressive 13.1 yards per carry. “He’s the man,” Vikings safety Taylor Harris said. “It’s like he’s playing against some little boys. … Promise you he’s going to rush for a thousand-plus yards.” James began this season with 100 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries in a 35-0 win over Osbourn Park and 156 yards and three touchdowns on
seven carries in a 61-0 win over Osbourn. “The crazy thing is he’s quiet, so he’s not cocky,” Harris said. “He’ll do what he [has] to do every single week [but] you don’t hear nothing from him until [the] pads hit.” James then ran for 193 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries against Battlefield. He had four runs of at least 20 yards each, including a 33yard touchdown run during which he dragged a pair of defenders about five yards to reach the end zone. Later, he pushed a growing pile of Battlefield defenders down the right sideline. Seven Bobcats finally forced him out of bounds, but James still stayed on his feet. So the 5-foot-9, 190-pound senior plays even larger than he appears. “I feel like nobody can tackle me,” he said. “That’s how I go into the game. … I just run through their face.” “He’s a really hard runner,” Battlefield coach Mark Cox said. “We haven’t seen anybody like that yet.”

Pickin’ and grinnin’ Reaching for apple happiness By John Hagarty
Contributing Writer
What do autumn air and fresh apples have in common? Beauty and crispness. And both are available in abundance in the Piedmont. It’s commonly acknowledged our region possesses one of the loveliest landscapes in the nation. Verdant pastures, dense forests, rolling hills and clear steams are all framed by the Blue Ridge Mountains. And then there’s the apples. Virginia is the sixth-largest apple-producing state with some two dozen varieties of the red orb to choose from. By the time Thomas Jefferson had retired to his beloved Monticello he had planted more than 1,000 fruit trees on his “little mountain,” many of them apple trees. Today, there are more than 250 commercial growers in the Old Dominion tending 18,000 acres of apple trees. Virginia exports its apples to more than two dozen states and 20 countries. Much of the crop is made into apple juice, apple butter, apple sauce and apple cider; both sweet and hard. To the good fortune of local residents, the majority of the apple crop is grown in the northwest section of our state. That’s also called our backyard. Seven counties in the region account for 8 million bushels annually, or 89 percent of the entire state crop. Chasing down a couple bags of fresh apples is as easy as backing out of your driveway. And for a fun and tasty family event, it’s difficult to find a better use of a day off. This spring and summer will go down in the record books as one of the wettest in years. Nonetheless, local orchards have worked diligently to produce a good crop of apples. The rainy challenges began early in the season. Since bees don’t fly in the rain, pollination was affected to some degree. During the growing portion of
an apple’s life, too much water affects the cell division of the fruit; a balanced amount of water and sun are ideal. Mold and fungus are also problematic for fruit-bearing trees. Nonetheless, all of these obstacles have been largely met, and there is plenty of tasty red fruit available. Now is the time to take advantage of the orchardists’ hard labor. Apples ripen at different times depending on the variety. Early-maturing varieties include Honeycrisp, Paula Red and Jonagold. Deeper into the season you’ll find Gala, Fuji, Granny Smith, Red and Golden Delicious, Rome and many more hanging heavy on the trees.
Local orchards
While there are numerous opportunities for apple-picking throughout Northern Virginia, four nearby orchards are located in the Delaplane and Markham area: Hartland Orchard, Hollin Farms, Stribling Orchard and Valley View Farm. In Rappahannock County, four more apple farms offer getaways in the shadow of the Blue Ridge Mountains: High Places Orchard, Jenkins Orchard, Muskrat Farms and Williams Orchard. Stribling Orchard is one of the oldest farms in the area dating to 1812 with the sixth-generation Stribling family tending the fruit. The family recently finished renovation of the 200-year-old farm house and now lives on the property full-time. “We have an amazing group of family and friends that help us during the season, which runs from July to the beginning of November,” said Stacia Stribling, who is an education professor at George Mason University. Her husband Rob works for Northrop Grumman. The 45-acre farm produces peaches and apples, but 35 of the acres are devoted to apple growing. There are some 25 different varieties growing on site. “Red and Golden Delicious, Fuji, Crispin, Nittany, Granny Smith and York are the majority of our September and October apples,” said Stacia Stribling. And what advice would Stribling give folks headed out for a day of picking happiness? “People who are not into farming think apples on the ground are not any good. There’s a lot of tremendous fruit lying on the ground.” Fruit that reaches its peak of sweetness contains the most sugar and will fall naturally to the ground, signaling it’s time to take a bite.

ples have recently fallen, they can be among the best fruit. “I always tell people not to forget to look down,” she adds. Stribling also cautions visitors to take the season’s rains into consideration and wear boots when walking through the orchard. She points out picking in a light rain has its advantages. “It’s actually quite refreshing. If you are properly dressed, it’s a lot better than picking on a hot day. “Being in the peach and apple business is a lot of hard work but we love it. For us, one of the rewards is getting to see and talk with our customers. Many tell us they came here with their children and now they

come back and introduce us to their grandchildren,” said Stribling. The family enjoys that their farm is a place for generations to come and re-visit. “We’re pleased to offer that to the public. There are lot of memories made here. We love being part of that environment,” said Stribling. For more business and wine tales, visit Hagarty-on-wine.com
