Family, fellow soldiers testify in effort to spare Hamilton’s life Staff sergeant faces death or life in prison for killing police officer, wife
By Amanda Heincer Times Staff Writer
During the first four days of the sentencing phase of Ronald Williams Hamilton’s capital murder trial, prosecutors sought to demonstrate why Hamilton should be sentenced to death. Since Oct. 9, Hamilton’s defense attorneys have attempted to show jurors why his life should be spared. “Mitigation is any reason to choose life or not to choose death,” defense attorney
Vivian Hernandez told jurors in her opening statement Oct. 1. “It can be anything that you hear about Ronnie, about his life, about his family and even something within you, within your own sense of fairness.” The jury in Prince William Circuit Court on Sept. 26 found Hamilton, 34, guilty of 17 offenses, including capital murder, for the Feb. 27, 2016, shooting deaths of his wife, Crystal Hamilton, and Prince William County police officer Ashley Guindon. The jury also found Hamilton guilty of shooting
two other police officers who were seriously wounded but survived. In the first part of the trial’s sentencing phase, prosecutors called witnesses who described past incidents in which Hamilton acted unpredictably with police and others. Witnesses described two separate earlier incidents in which Hamilton threatened two men with a firearm. Other witnesses described his troubled decade-long marriage, during which both partners had affairs.

The commonwealth has launched a campaign to spread the message far and wide: An estimated 400,000 Virginians will be eligible for free health insurance under Medicaid beginning Jan. 1, and an estimated 14,000 of them live in Prince William County. As a result of the state legislature’s action earlier this year to expand Medicaid under the federal Affordable Care Act, the eligibility requirements for the state- and federally-funded health-care program for low-income residents have expanded, opening Medicaid coverage to many who may not have qualified before.

At registration deadline, Prince William voter rolls top 282,700 By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
As of this week, Prince William County’s voter rolls topped 282,700 — an all-time high. The county’s voter rolls climb continually as Prince William’s overall population grows. And voter registration numbers typically rise most swiftly in the weeks and months before a big election. But the last several weeks have been particularly busy for the Prince William County Office of Elections, according to Senior Assistant Depu-

ty Registrar Matthew Wilson. Since Sept. 1, the county fielded a whopping 25,000 voter-registration applications, an unusually high number the registrar’s office attributes to the “National Register to Vote Day” and similar efforts promoted heavily over social media, Wilson said. Most of the applications were from people already registered to vote, but the county added about 1,000 new voters to its rolls in September alone, Wilson said. Since November of 2017, the county added about 10,000 voters.

“It’s definitely crazier than it usually is, and definitely crazier compared to four years ago. I think people in general are more amped up for this election than they usually would be.”
MATTHEW WILSON Senior Assistant Deputy Registrar Prince William County Office of Elections,
Since November 2014, the last federal mid-term election, the county’s voter rolls have swelled by more than 48,000 voters, according to Virginia Department of Elections records. In-person absentee voting, which has been underway since Sept. 21, is also logging strong numbers. As of last week, about 2,000 ballots had already been cast. The voting office also had mailed nearly 5,000 absentee ballots. Wilson said the office seems to have received more requests for absentee ballots this year from students away at college. “It’s definitely crazier than it usually is, and definitely crazier compared to four years ago,” Wilson said. “I think people in general are more amped up for this election than they usually would be.” Wilson said he doesn’t know exactly what’s driving registration numbers or in-person absentee turnout. So far, they’ve seen no particular jump that can be specifically tied to the controversial confirmation of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett
Kavanaugh, he said. In-person absentee voting will continue every weekday until Saturday, Nov. 3 at three locations in the county: the Woodbridge DMV, the PWC Office of Elections and the Haymarket Gainesville Library. Voters on Nov. 6 will elect a U.S. senator, either incumbent Sen. Tim Kaine, a Democrat, or Prince William County Board of Supervisors Chairman Corey Stewart, a Republican. All 435 members of U.S. Congress are also up for re-election. In the City of Manassas, local contests are on the ballot, including three seats on the city council. In Prince William, there’s also a special election for school board chairman. The three candidates on the ballot include Interim School Board Chairman Babur Lateef, Gainesville District School Board Representative Alyson Satterwhite and newcomer Stanley Bender. Any Virginian can check or update his/her registration information or register for the first time at the Virginia Department of Election’s Online Citizen Portal, available at vote.elections.virginia.gov. Registered voters can also preview their ballot and request an absentee ballot through the state website.
How to vote early Prince William voters who work or attend school outside the county or meet other criteria can cast “in-person absentee ballots” — basically, vote early — at the following locations and times. The last day to cast an in-person absentee ballot is Saturday, Nov. 3.

Who is eligible for Medicaid? Virginia lawmakers expanded the state’s Medicaid program to cover those making up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level.

is a treating physician,” Handy said. There is no dental or vision insurance offered with the expanded Medicaid program, “but there are other programs that might be available for the applicant. We would only know by their application,” Handy said.
No work requirement for now
Virginia lawmakers passed Medicaid expansion with a work or volunteer requirement for new, non-disabled adult enrollees and have filed for a waiver from the federal government to add the requirement, as it is not part of the federal program. The state has not yet received its waiver, however, and therefore the work requirement will not immediately go into effect when the program is expanded Jan. 1. “Although that could change in the future” if the waiver is approved, Handy said. As of now, there are also no co-pays for Medicaid recipients, although that could also change, especially for those earning near the income thresholds. Undocumented immigrants are generally not eligible for Medicaid. “We do look at citizenship status, but we do not report to any agency about that status. The applicant either qualifies for Medicaid based on the information they give us, or they don’t,” Handy said.
Family, fellow soldiers testify in effort to spare Hamilton’s life HAMILTON from page 1
Prosecutors also called the two injured officers to the witness stand as well as family members of both Guindon and Crystal Hamilton, who described the impact the shootings have had on their lives. The defense has so far called several of Hamilton’s family members, childhood mentors and fellow soldiers to the witness stand to testify in Hamilton’s behalf. Jurors saw dozens of family photos of Hamilton throughout his life, ranging from baby photos and photos of large family gatherings to photos of Hamilton as a young private in the Army and photos of Hamilton with his wife and their now 13-year-old son. Several of Hamilton’s family mem-
bers described his childhood and their relationship with him. Each said they still had a relationship with Hamilton and hope to continue having one in the future. Hernandez asked Hamilton’s mother, Diane Williams, why she still wants to have a relationship with her son. “Why?” Williams asked. “He’s my son and I love him.” Hamilton’s mother and sister, Cassandra Williams, also testified about loss of Crystal, whom both said they loved and considered a part of their family. “It hurts,” Cassandra Williams said, crying as she testified. “When you love people… it’s a great loss.” “Ronnie’s friends and family are heartbroken,” Hernandez said in her opening statement. “His family mem-
bers grieve, but not just for Ronnie. His family members also grieve for Crystal because she was also a part of their family. They loved her. They’re sad, they’re angry, but they chose to be here. They still see value in his life.” The defense team also called several witnesses who served in the Army with Hamilton. As a young enlisted soldier, Hamilton deployed to Iraq in 2003 at the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom. His fellow soldiers testified about the fear and danger they faced while deployed there as part of a signal battalion. Hamilton’s battalion was responsible for setting up communications in Iraq, and the soldiers faced dangers as they patrolled the area, as their convoy traveled from Kuwait to Iraq and as they lived at the airfield in Mosul, the
soldiers testified. Several of the soldiers said they’ve since been diagnosed with PTSD and appeared to struggle with their emotions as they testified about their deployment. Hamilton deployed to Iraq a second time in 2005. Defense attorneys have not yet presented evidence directly about how the war affected Hamilton but have hinted at its effects. On the day of the shootings, Hamilton told the first detective he spoke to that he thought he might have PTSD, though he had not been diagnosed by a doctor. The defense team expects to conclude its case this week. Reach Amanda Heincer at aheincer@fauquier.com

Virginia’s Tropical Storm Michael death toll rises to 6 In Partnership with Sentara Healthcare
4565 Daisy Reid Avenue (Prince William Parkway, 1 Mile West of Old Bridge Road)
Woodbridge, VA 22192 • Phone: 571-297-1414
Staff Reports The state’s death toll from Tropical Storm Michael officially rose to six Saturday, when the remains of a woman from Eureka, Virginia, were located about a mile from the vehicle she, her adult son and grandson were riding in when they were swept away by flood waters in Charlotte County. Ruby S. Allen, 62, was riding with her son, Ronnie Allen Jr., 36, and Allen’s 17-year-old son on Thursday, Oct. 11, when their vehicle became stranded on a bridge along Mt. Harmony Road. All three got out of their vehicle. While waiting for help to arrive, the two adults were swept into the rising water. The 17-year-old was found clinging to the side of the bridge and was rescued by Charlotte County Sheriff's deputies, according to Virginia State Police spokeswoman Corinne Geller. Ronnie Allen’s remains were found in the hours after the incident. Ruby Allen’s remains were found about 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 13, with the help of a police K-9 unit, Geller said. Nearly all of the state’s storm victims drowned in flash-flood waters in the afternoon and evening hours of Thursday, Oct. 11, when the storm caught many in central and southern Virginia by surprise with its heavy
rains and ferocious winds. A Hanover County firefighter was killed when a tractor-trailer truck slammed into his fire truck while he and other rescuers were assisting victims of a two-vehicle crash Lt. Bradford Clark on Interstate 295. Lt. Bradford Clark, 43, was killed in that incident. Two other firefighters sustained serious injuries and were transported to Virginia Commonwealth University hospital for treatment, according to a Virginia State Police press release. The following are details of the storm’s other fatalities, as reported by the state police and news outlets around the state. In Pittsylvania County, James E. King Jr., 45, of Dry Fork, drowned after he was swept away from his vehicle, which was caught in a flash flood at 3:30 p.m. Oct. 11 in the on Sandy Creek Road in the Mt. Hermon community. Despite the efforts of a Pittsylvania County Sheriff's deputy and a local resident to rescue King, the floodwaters were too deep and too swift for them to maintain contact with him, the state police press release said. At approximately 10:37 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 11, special agents with the Virginia State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation and local volunteer firefighters located King's remains downstream, the press release said. In Hanover County, one firefighter, Clark was killed and two other firefighters seriously injured at about 9 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 11, while rendering aid to victims of a two-vehicle crash on Interstate 95. The fire engine had its emergency lights activated while stopped in the far-left lane and shoulder. A southbound tractor-trailer rear-ended the fire engine and struck four firefighters who were outside the fire engine, according to the state police. Clark, 43, of Mechanicsville, succumbed to his injuries at the scene. Two other firefighters were transported to VCU Medical Center for treatment of life-threatening injuries. A fourth firefighter suffered minor injuries and was treated at the scene. The driver of the tractor-trailer, Lester Labarge, 49, of California, Maryland, was also transported for treatment of serious injuries. Labarge has been charged with reckless driving and was cited for defective brakes. The crash remains under investigation and additional charges are pending, the state police said. In Danville, two motorists were killed in flash flooding. At about 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 11. William Tanksley, 53, of Danville, was swept away from his vehicle by swift-moving water, according to news reports. Later, at about 10:20 p.m., a drowning occurred on Goodyear Boulevard. The victim was stranded inside of a vehicle that was overrun by flash flood waters. The victim's name is pending family notification, according to news reports.

Staff reports
The pilot killed in a crash outside the Culpeper Regional Airport Friday night has been identified as Jon S. Thocker, of Cincinnati, Ohio, a retired airline captain and 12-year veteran of the Redline Air Shows acrobatic team. Thocker’s “RVA homebuilt aircraft” was conducting aerodynamic maneuvers when it crashed into a field in the 12500 block of Beverly Ford Road in Brandy Station, Virginia, about 8:10 p.m. Friday, Oct. 12, according to Corinne Geller, spokeswoman for the Virginia State Police. Investigators with the National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration responded to the crash site Friday. The cause remained under investigation Saturday, Geller said. Jon S. Thocker Thocker was part of a team involved in a night performance at the Culpeper Air Fest, according to Redline Air Shows, which posted a notice about the crash on its website. Redline Air Shows describes itself as a “dynamic, two-ship formation aerobatic team with more than 12 years of experience,” its website said. Thocker’s team had performed more than a dozen air shows in 2018 and had just recently began flying their new Vans RV-8s, which team Redline built themselves, the website said. “One of the team’s specialties were night performances with pyrotechnics, which pilots Ken Rieder and Thocker were showcasing at the time of the crash,” Redline Air Show’s website said.
Manassas man crashes a stolen vehicle into a tree, threatening police A 25-year-old man was arrested on multiple charges Wednesday, including assault of a police officer, after he allegedly broke into the Manassas-area home, stole a vehicle, crashed the vehicle into a nearby tree and then threatened officers with what he said was a weapon, according to police. Prince William County police responded to a home on the 12700 block of Landview Drive in the Manassas area of Prince William County at 2:09 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 11. The man “ran toward responding officers, threatening to have a weapon,” Sgt. Jonathan Perok, Prince William County police spokesman, said in a news release. The man was eventually detained following a brief struggle. No officers were injured, Perok said. Steven Robert Banks, 25, of no fixed address, was arrested and was being held without bond Friday in connection with the incident, Perok said.

Five announce bids for county supervisor in 2019 More than a year out, local races already filling up fast By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
Elections for the eight seats on the Prince William Board of Supervisors are still more than a year away, but the contests are already crowded with newcomers, five of which filed to paperwork to run in recent weeks. Board of Supervisors Chairman Corey Stewart, R-At Large, is on this year’s Nov. 6 ballot for U.S. Senate against incumbent Sen. Tim Kaine (D). But if he loses that race, two women have lined up (so far) for the Democratic nomination to challenge him: Ann Wheeler, of Haymarket, and Deshundra Jefferson, of Montclair. Wheeler formally announced her candidacy Monday. Jefferson has yet to make a public statement, but says she’ll do so after the Nov. 6 election. Ann Wheeler In the supervisors’ races, Democrats Kenny Boddye, Margaret Angela Franklin and L.T. Pridgen have announced their plans to run for the Occoquan, Woodbridge and Coles district seats, respectively. Franklin’s bid effectively amounts to a primary challenge against Supervisor Frank Principi, D-Woodbridge. But Franklin, a resident of Woodbridge’s Port Potomac, insists it’s not a hostile move. Franklin notes that Principi has yet to announce his plans for 2019 (he’s expected to consider a run for chair) and she said felt it important to get in the race early to build name recognition and start raising support, a sentiment she shares with her fellow Democratic candidates. Boddye, Franklin and Pridgen join Democrats Andrea Bailey, of Dumfries, and Maggie Hansford, of Bristow, who have already announced their bids for the Potomac and Brentsville district seats, respectively. That leaves only the Gainesville District seat, currently held by Supervisor Pete Candland (R) without a Democratic challenger. But that will likely change, says Principi, who says he’s excited to see so many Democratic newcomers vie for slots on the county board. Principi said he helped recruit candidates to build a local Democratic bench and is glad to see his efforts paying off even if it means he’ll face a primary challenge next spring. “I’m happy to be a part of it,” Principi said. “We’ll have Democrats contesting every seat [on the board of supervisors] next year. That’s for sure.”
Issues: schools, transportation and unseating Corey Stewart
All of the candidates mentioned transportation, education and eco-
nomic development among the top issues they’ll pursue if elected to the board. All also said they are running in part to make the county board more reflective Margaret Franklin of the county’ minority-majority population and its values. In her announcement, Wheeler, a longtime community volunteer with a degree in mechanical engineering and an MBA from the University of Chicago, said Prince William County has “suffered” under Stewart’s leadership. “Prince William County’s reputation has declined and suffered throughout Virginia and the country with the divisive and embarrassing rhetoric under Corey Stewart’s 12-year tenure,” Wheeler said in a statement issued Monday. “Mr. Stewart’s limited vision and short-sightedness has left our county with some of the most overcrowded schools and worst traffic in the region.” That sentiment was echoed by most Wheeler’s fellow Democratic candidates. Boddye, 31, said Prince William County “is not the community of Corey Stewart,” who has become known, in recent years, for his defense of Confederate monuments and his past associations with white supremacists. Franklin, 32, a legislative director to a Florida Congressman Al Lawson, said she “takes issue” with Stewart’s policies and rhetoric. “I don’t think he’s been good for the county; I don’t think he’s good for the commonwealth; and I don’t think he’s good for his party,” Franklin said. “He is someone I think needs to go, and he will be an important part of the conversation for 2019 If he decides to run to run for re-election.”

Diversity
Margaret Angela Franklin
Despite being Virginia’s largest minority-majority county, Prince William voters have never elected an African-American supervisor. But the board lacks diversity in other ways too, all the candidates said, including in age and lifestyle. Boddye, notes that none of the current supervisors are commuters. “So, we don’t just want diversity for the sake of diversity. We want diversity because that is going to reflect how people make their choices,” Boddye said.
Schools
The candidates are also talking a lot about the county’s overcrowded and, they say, “underfunded” schools and the need to pay teachers and school staff members more to keep them from taking jobs in nearby counties. “We have the largest class sizes in the state and the lowest paid teachers in the region,” Wheeler said. “The board of county supervisors controls the funding for our schools, and they have woefully underfunded them.” Here’s more information about each of the candidates:
Boddye last ran for office in 2017 when he vied for the 51st District seat in the Virginia House of Delegates. He lost in the primary to Del. Hala Ayala, Kenny Boddye who won the seat in November 2017, unseating former Del. Rich Anderson, whose wife, Ruth Anderson (R), currently holds the seat for which Boddye is running. Boddye is originally from Los Angeles but came to the area to attend Georgetown University where he earned a bachelor’s degree in political science. He’s lived in Prince William County since 2013. Boddye said the county must boost its bus service to move more commuters to the county’s VRE stations as a strategy to lighten traffic on two perpetually congested roadways: Old Bridge Road and Prince William Parkway. On homelessness, Boddye said he’d like to see county leaders negotiate with developers to set aside affordable housing, particularly in apartment buildings. Boddye said he cares about such issues because he understands what it’s like to live with economic uncertainty. Boddye’s mother was a nurse but also struggled with substance abuse and homelessness. He said his only brother has been in and out of prison for the last several years. “I’ve had my fair share of struggles and I understand what happens when our local government is failing to do what it’s supposed to be doing to help people,” Boddye said. “But I also have seen what can happen when someone tries to make a difference in someone’s life.” As a commuter, Franklin understands the struggle to get from the county to Washington every day. Franklin said she slugs to work or takes the bus for a daily commute that ranges between 45 minutes and 75 minutes. Franklin supports extending Metro to Prince William but understands it won’t happen for several years. In the interim, she said she’d like the county to have a more efficient bus system that serves all the county’s shopping and job hubs – including Potomac Mills and Stonebridge at Potomac Town Place. “What I would like to see in Woodbridge is a more efficient, more consistent public transportation system that gives people transportation options rather than just staying in their cars,” she said. Franklin said she’s also concerned that buying a home is out of reach for too many county residents. Franklin is Principi’s appointee on the PRTC Board of Directors and served as the vice chair of the Prince William County Democratic Committee and chair of the Woodbridge Democratic Committee. She holds a master’s degree in
public administration from Howard University. “I am an everyday person. I commute like regular people… I want to be able to afford a home L.T. Pridgen in Woodbridge,” Franklin said. “…This campaign is about really moving Woodbridge forward.”
L.T. Pridgen
Pridgen, 44, is a native of Dallas, Texas, who took a job in Northern Virginia in 2013. She works as project manager for CarFax. She is a first-generation college student who earned her bachelor’s degree in management accounting and an MBA from Temple University. Pridgen is also a survivor of childhood sexual assault. She launched a nonprofit called “Stomp Out the Silence,” that advocates for greater awareness of child sexual assault and how to recognize and report victims and their abusers. She and her wife live outside Manassas. They are training to become foster parents, Pridgen said. “I have always believed that none of us are ok until all of us are ok, and so I just feel like there are too many people who are not ok, and I feel like a lot of those people don’t have a voice,” she said. Pridgen said she would work to reduce overcrowding in schools, increase teacher pay and attract more businesses and high-paying jobs to Prince William. “I don’t have all the answers, but I bring a piece of the puzzle,” she said.
Ann Wheeler
Wheeler has lived in Prince William County since 2001. She last ran for office in 2011, when vied for the Gainesville seat on the board of supervisors, a race she lost to Candland. Wheeler has served as NOVEC board member for 14 years, on the Hylton Performing Arts Center board for two years and recently completed a two-year term as president of the Prince William Committee of 100, a non-partisan civic organization that provides a forum to raise awareness of county issues. Wheeler also served as chair of the Prince William County Board of Social Services from 2010-2011. Wheeler said education and economic development would be her focus as chair of the county board. “I will make Prince William County attractive and welcoming to large and small prospective businesses,” Wheeler said. “Every four years we hear candidates campaign on bringing more commercial business to the county, yet our homeowners are still paying over 80 percent of the county real-estate taxes. This needs to change. The board’s goal of adding only 500 jobs a year, in a county of 458,000, is shortchanging our taxpayers.” Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com

Collaborative effort captures 400 years of Virginia wine By John Hagarty
Contributing Writer
On July 30, 1619, the first legislature in the English colonies met and established a set of laws governing Virginia. The House of Burgesses set in motion events that shaped the democratic process, cultural diversity, historical traditions and the entrepreneurial spirit in the United States. Yes, it was that important. The Virginia Tourism Corporation will celebrate the four-century seminal event with numerous activities during 2019. But a select number of Virginia wineries have taken the lead in observing a segment of the watershed moment in American history. The nexus for the industry’s involvement was a document emanating from the young government called “Acte XII.” It established a wide-ranging set of laws directing the growth and success of the new colony. One section addressed the importance of establishing a commercial wine industry. Specifically, it read, “…be it enacted by this present assembly that every householder does yearly plant and maintain ten vines, until they have attained to the art and experience of dressing a vineyard…”. To support the nascent wine culture, in 1621 King James directed that 10,000 grape vines be sent to the colonies. They were accompanied by eight French winemakers to ensure the success of the endeavor. Alas, the early efforts did not take root in the state’s hostile climate that included heat, cold, humidity, insects and fungi. The delicate French grapes balked at being forced to work under such conditions and did not thrive. Nonetheless, it launched a wine industry in Virginia that ebbed and flowed until the late 1970s when the cumulative experience of nearly four centuries, coupled with scientific advances, cata-
pulted Virginia into the fifth-largest wine-producing state in the nation. Today, the commonwealth has more than 300 wineries producing more than a half million cases of wine annually and generating $747 million to the state’s economy. King James would have been proud.
Celebratory ‘Heritage’ wine
Local vintner Chris Pearmund recognized the state’s yearlong celebration as an opportunity to showcase the success of Virginia wine. Pearmund, 56, owns Pearmund Cellars, Vint Hill Craft Winery and Effingham Manor Winery and has been involved in opening numerous other Virginia wineries over the past two decades. Virginia’s 400-year history will be celebrated far beyond just its contribution to winemaking in the new world. So much has unfolded in the state in the ensuing four centuries that Pearmund knew he had to highlight the state’s role as the cradle of wine production in the U.S. “I started the Heritage wine project two years ago. I realized no one was talking about the wine industry as it related to the birth of the state. If we were going to do something, we needed to get started,” Pearmund said. If you want something done, ask a busy person. In this case, Pearmund appointed himself as the doer bee. He developed the concept of creating a celebratory bottle of red wine that reflected the best the state has to offer. He reached out to a select number of quality producers asking them to contribute one barrel of their best red wine to the project. Sixteen wineries responded. Back in his cellar, Pearmund began blending the wines into a unique, full-bodied dinner wine. He aged it in Virginia white-oak barrels for 16 months, designed a shaved Birchwood label and packaged the bottle in a presentation case. “The entire effort was focused on Virginia components, including a mid-1800s machine that was used to make the presentation box in Richmond. We produced 10,000 bottles to commemorate the 10,000 vines that were shipped to Virginia back in the early 1600s,” said Pearmund. Each participating winery has a supply of

the wine, which went on sale the last weekend in September in concert with October’s Virginia Wine Month. The retail price is $59 a bottle. It will not be reissued once it’s sold out, making it a unique collector’s wine. The 16 participating wineries are: Aspen Dale, Cooper Vineyards, Glass House, Effingham Manor, Ingleside, New Kent, Pearmund Cellars, Phillip Carter, Rappahannock Cellars, Potomac Point, Rosement, Naked Mountain, Narmada, Vint Hill Craft, Williamsburg and the Winery at Bull Run. The wine can be aged for at least 10 years. It’s a blend of 44 percent Merlot, 25 percent Petit Verdot, 12 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 10 percent Cabernet Franc and 9 percent Tannat. It’s a big wine. “The reason the wine exists demonstrates how the industry worked collaboratively and in unison to produce a wine representing the Virginia industry. We sold 20 cases to the governor’s’ office for $1 a bottle that will be used throughout next year’s celebrations,” Pearmund said. The wine mirrors a Spanish Rioja Alta in style. Its focus is on dark fruits of black cherry with spicy notes of cinnamon and vanilla on both the nose and mid-palate. An earthy and smoky texture of sweet tobacco, cedar and cherry liqueur presents on the finish. While drinkable today, its flavors will deepen with further aging.

Prince William Times | October 17, 2018
Spread the word: Medicaid expansion is coming Jan. 1 Virginia is expanding its Medicaid program’s income eligibility brackets Jan. 1, meaning an estimated 400,0000 Virginians will qualify who may not have in the past. That’s the message every county in the state is taking to the people, encouraging those who think they may qualify to apply as soon as possible. Flyers have been sent home with students, and community organizations are joining in the outreach efforts. Thankfully, the state is using technology to do some of the heavy-lifting. More than 200,000 Virginians who are expected to be eligible based on their current enrollment in other programs will automatically receive letters informing them of their ability to receive Medicaid benefits. Medicaid is a state and federally-funded program that pays health-care-related costs for nowage or low-wage earners and their families; the disabled and low-income elderly residents. Services include doctor’s appointments, hospitalization, prescription medications, maternity, newborn care, behavioral health and more. Prior to this expansion, which
Virginia lawmakers approved earlier this year, Virginia’s existing Medicaid program was one of the stingiest in the nation. Even disabled adults could not qualify for Medicaid if they made more than $9,700 a year; and childless, non-disabled adults did not qualify for Medicaid at all -- no matter how little they made. Starting Jan. 1, all adults making up to $16,700 a year – whether or not they have children – will be eligible. In Prince William County, an additional 14,000 county residents are expected to qualify under the new rules. The county is adding 18 fulltime, permanent employees who will work to process new enrollees. Applications can be made in person at any Virginia Department of Social services office, as well as by telephone and online at coverva.org. Applications can also be filed on the website commonly known as the “marketplace,” set up to help identify region-specific insurance plans based on individual needs. Those who qualify for Medicaid receive a packet in the mail within six days. The insured then must chose an HMO provider, or one will be assigned.
Retired Marine general supports Wittman The mid-term elections are approaching and every citizen needs to make time to vote. I’m writing in support of the re-election of Congressman Rob Wittman, who represents Virginia’s 1st Congressional District. Many factors affect a voter’s decision to support a candidate. In actuality, the decision really boils down to who can best support your interests and the overall needs of the 1st District. Among the many areas that affect
the voters are economic growth (read: jobs), support for the numerous military installations in the 1st District and environmental concerns surrounding the Chesapeake Bay. Congressman Wittman has championed the growth of business both large and small. He serves on the House Armed Services Committee and has been extremely influential as the chairman of the Seapower and Projection Forces subcommittee. In this position,
The Virginia General Assembly had planned to require able-bodied adults to work or volunteer to be eligible for Medicaid. The national program doesn’t include that requirement partly because such rules could inadvertently kick people off the program if they fail to file the right paperwork. Virginia has nonetheless applied for a waiver to add the work requirement, but it has not yet been accepted. Because of that, the work requirement is on hold for now. We applaud these “pull-outall-the-stops” efforts by the commonwealth and our local county governments to spread the word so Medicaid can work for more low-income Virginians. So often, those most in need of help go without such services because they don’t know they are available or how to access them. County departments that help conhe has directly influenced funding for military bases, stations and shipyards in the 1st District. All of these provide good paying jobs. Congressman Wittman also serves on the Committee for Natural Resources. He has been a key supporter of environmental efforts throughout the Chesapeake watershed. He has spent a lifetime working to protect and improve the Potomac and Rappahannock river basins. Congressman Wittman regularly engages with his constitu-
nect people to such programs are typically overworked and understaffed, hampering their ability to seek out those who qualify. This effort is an exception. But it's only going to work if the entire community gets the message out. The debate over Medicaid expansion was a long and divisive one, but now resources are available to help more people access life-saving and life-changing medical care. We join the effort to spread the word so these important benefits don’t get left on the table. ents in a wide variety of forums. I have known Rob for more than 20 years and can attest to his outstanding leadership, integrity and strong moral character. Congressman Wittman is the absolute right choice for the 1st District, Reelect Congressman Rob Wittman on Election Day! RICK PHILLIPS, major general, U.S. Marine Corps (retired) Montross
Speech teacher and BOCS candidate urges support for Lateef
Rules restricting D.C. protests threaten free speech
I am a Prince William County educator and a mom of sons who attend Prince William County schools and I strongly support Dr. Babur Lateef for school board chairman. Dr. Lateef is the only candidate who has recognized that our schools are severely underfunded and knows the direct impact that underfunding has on our students and teachers. We feel the impact of our underfunding from the bus ride to school, to our inability to fully staff, to our overcrowded classrooms. Dr. Lateef demonstrates that he is focused on the issues most important to our schools, and he will continue to advocate for the funding we desperately need for our students and staff. PWCS has the lowest paid teachers and highest classroom sizes in the area. We need a chairman to help advocate for a budget based on need, rather than simply accept the outdated revenue sharing agreement. Dr. Lateef understands that stu-
New rules on the use of public spaces proposed by the Trump administration and Secretary of Interior Ryan Zinke pose a grave danger to this country's most precious free speech rights and must be stopped. The public comment period for the regulations ends Oct. 15 and people around the country are writing in to voice their opposition. The proposed regulations impose steep fees and costs on demonstrations in Washington, D.C; effectively ban protests on the White House sidewalks; force protesters to pay the costs of barricades erected at police discretion, park ranger wages and overtime, and harm to grass from standing on it; create waiting periods removing any obligation of the government to promptly process or approve permits; restrict and suppress spontaneous demonstrations that respond to breaking events; create hair-triggers allowing police to end
dent success, safety, infrastructure and staff salaries are all connected. Our overcrowded schools directly impact students’ physical and mental health, safety and academic success. Our children deserve a plan to decrease, rather than increase, classroom trailers. Our staff deserves a plan to decrease class sizes and a five-year plan that includes an increase in teacher salaries. Dr. Lateef understands the need to address school infrastructure equity across the county, directly impacting student success. Our kids deserve more. I ask my neighbors and teacher colleagues to demand more for our schools and vote Nov. 6 for Dr. Babur Lateef for School Board Chair. MAGGIE HANSFORD Bristow

protests for the most minor of issues; restrict sound and staging; ban long term vigils or protest presences; make protesters pay for expensive "turf covers," among many other radical restrictions of free speech rights. These changes will affect all parkland under the National Park Service in the nation's capital including the National Mall, Lafayette Park, the White House Sidewalk, Lincoln Memorial, the Ellipse, Freedom Plaza and the sidewalks and parkland along Pennsylvania Avenue, including the sidewalk in front of the Trump Hotel. This is a dangerous anti-democratic proposal. If enacted, this will mark the end of free speech as we know it and will be a dystopian model that spreads across the county.

Raiders make their angry coach smile Second half surge helps Stonewall improves to 3-5 with 42-8 win over Osbourn By Josh Dorsey
Special to the Times
After three straight sub-.500 seasons, the Stonewall Jackson Raiders are 3-5 and trying to get to .500 for the first time since 2014. A loss to winless Osbourn (0-8) last Friday would have crushed that dream. That’s why Stonewall coach Carroll Walker was so riled up as his favored Raiders led just 7-0 at halftime before exploding for 35 second half points in a 42-8 win. “I just told them that we can’t be playing at a lower level and be relaxed. I told them we needed to pick up steam again. They were just slacking,” said Walker. The Raiders blew it open with 21 third quarter points to spoil a strong Eagles’ start. Xander Albea had a 46-yard touchdown run and finished with 116 yards on seven carries. Stonewall has shown its potential in competitive losses to Westfield and Woodbridge, and a win over Brooke Point. They’re shooting for their first playoff spot since three straight berths from 2012-14. “We have potential. We just have to play at that level all the time,” Walker said. “We have to get into a groove and get scoring.” Walker moved quarterback Jovon Jackson under center for the second half to focus on the run game. Sophomore quarterback Toviel Jung took the majority of the snaps in the first half. Jackson had a TD run as Stonewall went on a 21-0 spurt in about three minutes. Albea also spoke to his teammates at the half. “I told them that we have to work harder,” Albea said. “I told them that this team [Osbourn] is not as good as us but if we play down to their level then we are not going to win this game. I told them that we have to keep hustling and give everything on every play.”

Xander Albea and the Stonewall Jackson Raiders (3-5) are shooting for their first playoff spot since three straight appearances from 2012-14. They host Osborn Park (2-6) Friday. Osbourn’s offense controlled the ball throughout the first half as Eagle quarterback Chance Hollinsworth threw for 120 yards and a touchdown and added 41 yards rushing. “The quarterback [Hollinsworth] is a good quarterback but we’ve been playing good quarterbacks all year long,” Walker said. “We just needed to contain him.” Osbourn coach Cortez Whiting said his team’s lack of depth proved
fatal. “We just don’t have the numbers right now,” said Whiting. “We have to have subs in. We don’t have the numbers that you need to have in Region 6 football. We come out grinding but we wear down.” The lone first half points came when Stonewall’s Devin Whitaker reversed field to score on a 9-yard-touchdown early in the first quarter. The Raiders had a golden opportu-
nity to pad their lead going into halftime but muffed a snap on the 1-yard line with 18 seconds left. The Raiders took advantage of a tired and frustrated Osbourn defense in the fourth quarter with TD receptions of 46 and 44 yards by senior Elijah Crenshaw. Osbourn scored the game’s final points when Hollinsworth hit Luke Spall on a 9-yard TD pass.
Bobcat Corbett wins Class 6 golf title By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer
Battlefield’s Bryce Corbett shot 3-under-par 69 to become the second state golf champion in school history by winning the Class 6 meet at Magnolia Green Golf Club in Mosley on Oct. 9. “It means a lot. There’s not that many kids that can say they’re a state champion. To be only the second one from my school also means a lot,” said Corbett, a junior who joined former Bobcat Andy Lister (2009) as state champion. The Bobcats shot 309 to finish third
behind team champion Langley’s 296. Other Bobcat scorers were Mitchell Hummel (74, eighth), Luke Sheakley (81) and William Morris (85). Colgan’s Ben Kruper tied for third with a 71 as the Sharks took seventh with a 323. James Boyle (78), Victoria Adkins (83) and Chase Hopkins (91) also helped the Sharks. Corbett finished with seven birdies and shot par on seven holes to end the front nine with a 35 and the back nine with a 34. “Probably the best I’ve hit my wedges,” Corbett said. “I putted very well too. It probably tied for the best my game was overall.”
Corbett had a birdie on hole No. 4 to recover from shooting bogey on the first two holes. “That kind of turned it all around,” he said. “I started out pretty slow.” Last season, Corbett tied for 12th. “Last year I wasn’t hitting the ball quite as far, and I’m definitely putting the ball a lot better,” he said. “My game overall is more consistent.” Corbett also won the Cedar Run District championship earlier this fall, then placed third at the Region C meet. “My driver is a big part of my game,” he said, “and for some reason at regionals I didn’t hit my driver well.”

Regular season champion Patriot (19-4) begins Cedar Run District tournament play this week.
Casey-led Pioneers repeat as Cedar Run volleyball champs By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer
It took a tense final game win over local rival Battlefield, but Patriot prevailed to repeat as Cedar Run District regular season champions. Led by Ashley Casey’s 22 kills and 11 digs, the Pioneers defeated Battlefield 23-25, 25-15, 21-25, 2517, 15-12 on Oct. 9 to finish 7-0 in district and 19-4 overall. Patriot coach Katie Swanson credited the team’s sense of family.
“They trust each other, they feed off of each other, they believe in each other and they enjoy being around each other,” said Swanson. “You get talent along with chemistry and you can do some really amazing things.” About Casey, Swanson said, “She’s one of our go-to hitters. A very consistent and dynamic outside hitter.” Other top Pioneers include Julia Decoste and Nicole Epstein, who each added 12 kills to help setter Samantha Carroll amass 41 assists. Meagan Wittenberg had 21 digs and Decoste had four aces. Swanson is a first-year coach and former Kettle Run coach who returned to the court after a six-year hiatus. She stepped down in 2011 following the birth of her second child. The following year she joined Patriot’s teaching staff and is now a specialty programs coordinator As Cougar coach, she won the Evergreen District tournament title each season with regular season championships in 2010 and 2009. “I had children, so I took a break” from volleyball, she said. “Seven years later the [Patriot coaching] job came open, and my kids are older, so it was the perfect time. “It’s been a fantastic experience working with these girls and watching them develop into the team they are,” she said of the Pioneers. “We’ve been having some big crowds. Our Red Nation has been following us around.”
Patriot field hockey takes 2nd It took a shootout, but the Patriot downed Osbourn Park 3-2 in field hockey last Friday in Manassas. Lauren Gresham, Jennifer Rigney and Caroline Henry scored for the Pioneers, who finished 13-2 and second in the Cedar Run District at 6-2 behind Battlefield.

Gainesville resident on ‘The Voice’ By Angele Cipriotti Contributing Writer
Mike Parker, a Gainesville resident who was a star football player at Kettle Run High School in Fauquier County, has landed a spot on “Team Jennifer Hudson” on TV’s The Voice. Parker, 23, Mike Parker advanced in the televised talent competition on Monday by singing “So Sick" by Ne-Yo. On weekends, Parker performs at local clubs. He traces his singing talent to his musically-gifted parents, who used to perform in a band. Parker has been singing since he was 9 years old. “It was his parents that helped him realize he needed to get back to his musical roots and take a bold move towards making his dreams come true,” according to a news release from The Voice. Parker graduated from Kettle Run in 2013. On a press conference call with The Voice contestants, Parker mentions he participated every year in his high school’s talent show.

He was born on January 18, 1963, in Gloucester, MA the son of the late Lawrence Roger Stuart and Marilyn Elizabeth Stuart. Along with being one of the owners of L.R.
