Local nursing homes report at least 55 COVID-19 deaths By Daniel Berti and Jill Palermo
Rashid, Connolly, Gade advance to November By Daniel Berti
Times Staff
After refusing to do so for months, Virginia officials on Friday released information about COVID-19 outbreaks in specific nursing homes and long-term care facilities across the state, revealing that the virus had claimed the lives of at least 55 residents of such facilities in Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park. The information, posted on Virginia Department of Health’s Coronavirus website for the first time, showed that 11 long-term care facilities in the local health district reported COVID-19 outbreaks from March 27 through May 16. The data show the outbreaks have resulted in 416 local cases of COVID-19 and at least 55 deaths. The numbers represent only about 4.8% of the health district’s total cases of COVID-19, which stood at 8,510 on Friday, but at least 36% of the health district’s 152 deaths. It’s not clear how many total deaths resulted from outbreaks at the 11 local long-term care facilities because the state is suppressing fatality information for facilities that had fewer than five deaths. As a result,

Democrats Qasim Rashid and Rep. Gerry Connolly -- and GOP Senate candidate Daniel Gade -- came out on top in Tuesday’s primary elections, while Manassas residents picked three Democratic candidates to run for city council this fall. It was an unusually slow day at the polls as voters cast their ballots in the Democratic and Republican primaries. People trickling in to vote amid the pandemic were met with a now familiar sight: hand sanitizer, plexiglass shields and recommended social distancing – public health precautions taken by the Prince William County Office of Elections. The polls closed at 7 p.m., and all the races in Prince William County and Manassas were called by 9:30 p.m.

Connolly easily won in the 11th District, capturing more than 70% of the vote. His opponent Zainab Mohsini, a political newcomer, received about 30% of the vote. As of 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Connolly had tallied 17,653 votes compared to Mohsini’s 7,477. Connolly spent $1 million this election cycle compared to $12,000 spent by Mohsini, according to the Virginia Public Access Project. Mohsini said earlier in the day that her campaign’s message of racial justice and equality had resonated with area voters in recent weeks. Mohsini said that those issues “have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 crisis and the protests” that have flared up in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Connolly has served in the U.S. House of Representatives since 2008. Prior to running for federal office, Connolly served on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors from 1995 until 2008. Connolly was chairman of the board from 2003 until he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives.

NURSING HOMES, from page 1 Birmingham Green has not had a new case of COVID-19 in 20 days but currently has active cases among five residents and nine staff members, according to an update on the facility’s website posted on Wednesday, June 17, by CEO Denise Chadwick Wright. Across its assisted living and nursing care facilities, 48 residents and 72 residents have recovered from COVID-19, Wright’s note said. Birmingham Green is a publicly supported nursing home and assisted living facility for low-income seniors and disabled residents in the city of Alexandria and Fairfax, Fauquier, Prince William and Loudoun counties. Lake Manassas Health and Rehabilitation, in Gainesville, was the first local facility to report an outbreak of COVID-19. The facility reported eight COVID-19 cases associated with an outbreak that began on March 27. The VDH did not release the number of patients who died as a result of the facility’s coronavirus infections, however, because the information was suppressed. There are two outbreaks currently “in progress” in the Prince William Health District, according the data. One is at the Envoy of Woodbridge nursing home, first reported on May 16, with 70 cases. The other is at Manassas Health and Rehabilitation Center, first reported on May 18, with 11 cases. The number of deaths at both facilities has been suppressed. The status of the outbreaks at the remaining nine local long-term care facilities is listed as “pending closure,” meaning that 28 days have passed without a documented new case, but the outbreak has not yet been closed by the VDH. In addition to Birmingham Green, there are three long-term care facilities that have reported more than five deaths due to COVID-19 outbreaks.
Data released at Gov. Ralph Northam’s request
The VDH released the facility-specific data about outbreaks in long-term care facilities at the request of Gov. Ralph Northam, according to a Friday press release from his office. “Due to the widespread nature of this pandemic, it is now unlikely that releasing facility information would compromise anonymity or discourage facilities from participating in a public health investigation,” the release said. Citing state privacy laws, the VDH previously released only aggregate data about outbreaks in long-term care facilities. The development coincides with Northam’s announcement that the state is directing $246 million in federal coronavirus relief funding to efforts aimed at curtailing the spread of COVID-19 in the state’s nursing

As of Friday, the VDH had reported outbreaks at 230 long-term care facilities across the state that have resulted in 6,519 COVID-19 cases and 1,000 deaths. The money will be used to address staffing shortages, boost infection control measures and purchase personal protective equipment. It will also help the facilities comply with new testing requirements outlined in the state’s new guidelines for reopening long-term care facilities to visitors, according to Northam’s press release. More than $56 million is being provided for periodic testing of nursing home residents and staff. The majority of funding will go to nursing facilities that receive Medicaid payments, the release said. “The lockdowns of long-term care facilities to protect residents and staff from the spread of COVID-19 have been hard on residents and their families,” Northam said in a statement. “These actions will help support long-term care facilities as they ease those restrictions, while keeping their residents safe and ensuring that the public gets accurate information on the spread of this virus in these facilities.” Assisted living facilities will receive $20 million in support, “nearly doubling state funding for these facilities, in recognition that these facilities are also experiencing additional costs and have not had the federal support that nursing facilities have received,” the release said. The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services outlined reopening criteria May 18 for nursing facilities. These criteria recommend that all facilities conduct a baseline testing survey, and that facilities with outbreaks test residents and staff weekly.

County sees first case of life-threatening child syndrome tied to COVID-19 Staff Reports A child living in the Prince William Health District contracted Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children, a potentially life-threatening condition that is associated with COVID-19. The case involved a child living in Prince William County, Manassas or Manassas Park who was hospitalized in early May and “has since recovered from their illness,” according to a news release issued by the Virginia Department of Health. To protect the child’s privacy, no other information was released regarding the case, the release said. So far, two other Virginia children have suffered from MIS-C since the COVID-19 pandemic began. The two other cases were reported in Fairfax County.
Parents should watch for persistent fever in their children and contact their pediatrician if a child appears especially ill. Most children with MIS-C have fever lasting several days and may show symptoms of irritability or decreased activity, abdominal pain without another explanation, diarrhea, vomiting, rash, conjunctivitis, lack of appetite, red or cracked lips, red or bumpy tongue, or swollen hands and feet. A May 14 CDC health advisory about the syndrome listed symptoms of persistent fever, hypotension, multisystem organ involvement and elevated markers of inflammation. It is not currently known how common it may be for children to experience these symptoms, the CDC said. Classified Sales Consultant Jeanne Cobert, 540-878-2491 jcobert@fauquier.com

Supervisors adopt Black Lives Matter measure Vote follows tense discussion on race relations By Daniel Berti
Times Staff Writer
The Prince William Board of County Supervisors unanimously passed a resolution this week condemning white supremacy and proclaiming that black lives matter, but it was not without partisan bickering. The resolution was brought forward Tuesday by Supervisor Victor Angry, D-Neabsco, who said he introduced the measure to show support for young people in the community who have taken part in recent protests against police brutality, as well as in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Angry asked that he be allowed eight minutes and 46 seconds to speak about the resolution, the same amount of time that Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin held his knee to the neck of George Floyd during his arrest, killing him. Floyd’s death on May 25 sparked massive protests across the country that have resulted in a national conversation about race and policing. The board’s four African American members took turns reading the resolution aloud, with Angry wrapping up the speech by affirming the board’s support for the lives of black residents in the county. The floor was then opened for discussion. A tense conversation about race relations ensued between Republicans and Democrats.
Lawson: ‘Who is W.E.B. Du Bois? Should I know?’
Supervisor Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville, said she was in favor of the resolution but wanted to make sure the resolution was not an “endorsement of the actual organization Black Lives Matter.” Lawson explained that she had heard from several constituents, including African American constituents, that the organization had “hijacked a great purpose.” Angry replied that he was not aware of the organization that Lawson was referring to. Angry said that the resolution was speaking directly to his life and experiences as a Black person in America, which he described earlier in the meeting as a life “under siege.” “When I said my life matters as a Black man, that’s the group I’m talking about. I know nothing of this organization you’re talking about,” Angry said. The distinction between The Black Lives Matter organization and the Black Lives Matter movement has caused confusion about the protest movement since it began in 2013. The Black Lives Matter organization is a civil rights organization that has 16 chapters in the United States and Canada, while the Black Lives Matter movement is an unstructured protest and social movement. Lawson then questioned Angry
about a quote that was included in the resolution from African American civil rights pioneer W.E.B. Du Bois (1868-1963), a scholar and author who co-founded the NAACP and was the first African American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard University. Du Bois is known for his early 20th century efforts to promote access to higher education for African Americans. The Du Bois passage included in the resolution was one that encouraged teachers to listen to and trust black youth in their communities. Lawson said that she did not know who Du Bois was. “I’m fine with the quote, but who is W.E.B. Du Bois? Should I know?” Lawson asked. Angry responded to Lawson by saying her question “would be like me not knowing who Elvis Presley is.” Lawson said that she hoped that her fellow board members would teach her about these historical issues and encouraged more conversation between board members on the issue of race and race relations. Lawson said that healing the community would not happen “unless we have dialogue.” Supervisor Margaret Franklin, D-Woodbridge, who is African American, responded by saying that it’s “not my responsibility to educate people on this board about race.” Franklin said that it is up to individual members of the board to educate themselves. “Those are important discussions to have, but it’s not on us on this board to explain race relations. As leaders, we should come to the table already with a certain knowledge,” Franklin said. Franklin encouraged board members who were struggling to understand the Black Lives Matter movement “to go and talk to some of those young people out there.” Franklin was referring to Black Lives Matter protesters who had gathered in the lobby of the McCoart building after holding a protest prior to the board meeting. Several had come inside to speak during public comment time. “If you all really want to have this discussion and really want to understand what Black Lives Matter is … go outside and talk to those young people,” Franklin said. Supervisor Yesli Vega, R-Coles, who introduced an “all lives matter” resolution at the June 2 board meeting, asked Democrats to explain whether the “black lives matter” resolution meant that the lives of non-black constituents “can’t have a significant meaning until we say or proclaim that Black lives matter before that.” Vega said she was concerned that some constituents might “feel they’re being excluded.” Franklin responded by saying, “You can’t say all lives matter if you don’t say or believe that Black lives matter.”

chamber after he made the comment. Wheeler then requested that Chavez “keep decorum” and stop using profanities. After Chavez spoke, many of the young people who had come to the meeting to speak about police reform began using profanity in their addresses to the board, including the “f-word,” and the protest refrain “f-- 12.” The number 12 is a slang term for police. Later in the meeting, Lawson said some of the speakers said profane things about Vega in Spanish and asked if the board could require speakers to use only English in public comment time. County Attorney Michelle Robl said she would get back to the board on whether such a rule would be legal. The board also asked county staff to edit profanities out of the video recording of the meeting. Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@ fauquier.com
After passing the resolution unanimously, the board moved on to public comment time. Many of the people who addressed the board were young Black and Hispanic county residents who were advocating for changes in policing policy in Prince William County. Several said they supported slashing the county’s police budget and redirecting the money to mental health programs. Ruben Chavez, a resident of the Occoquan District, who had come to the earlier rally, told the board members that he wanted the county “to defund the police” department. Chavez said he was “tired of seeing our people being criminalized.” Chavez then accused one of the board members, Vega, of eating “f------ papusas with a knife and fork,” which caused a commotion in the board chambers. Lawson asked Board Chair Ann Wheeler to stop Chavez from using profanity in the

Supervisor launches effort to rename Jeff Davis Highway Staff Reports Supervisor Margaret Angela Franklin, D-Woodbridge, issued a directive Tuesday requesting that county staff begin the process of renaming Jefferson Davis Highway, also known as U.S. 1, which runs through Woodbridge and Potomac magisterial districts in Prince William County. The highway is named after Jefferson Davis, the former president of the Confederacy. “It is unacceptable that in 2020 we continue to have landmarks and roads that honor the treacherous, dark past
of racism and slavery,” Franklin said in press release Wednesday. Franklin and Supervisor Andrea Bailey, D-Potomac, are Supervisor the first black Margaret Angela Franklin women to be elected to the Prince William Board of County Supervisors. Franklin said that she will “stand up against these symbols of hatred,” in Prince William County. Fairfax and Arlington counties
and the city of Alexandria have already renamed the Jefferson Davis Highway where it passes through those jurisdictions. Prince William County is one of the few remaining Northern Virginia localities that have not changed the name of the highway. The renaming of the highway will require authorization from the Virginia Commonwealth Transportation Board. The process has been made easier, however, by legislation passed earlier this year by the Virginia General Assembly, which allows localities to remove or relocate Confederate monuments and rename public
infrastructure named for Confederate figures without lawmakers’ approval. Bailey said it is time for the county, and nation, to move forward, and leave behind “past reminders of devastation, hurt, pain and sorrow.” Franklin said Tuesday she expects the board to move forward with the renaming after staff determines a process for the board to do so. “I think particularly as we go through this time of racial tension, renaming Jefferson Davis Highway will hopefully start to heal some of these tensions,” Franklin said.

Names pitched for ‘Stonewall’ schools cull local history, unifying ideals

Some of the names suggested by participants in a Monday virtual meeting held to discuss renaming Stonewall Jackson High School and Stonewall Middle included: People: Laura Jackson Arnold Mary Bowser Celestine and Carol Braxton Jennie Dean Lucinda Griffin Delores Huerta Ibram X. Kendi Renee Lacey William Lomax Arthur Reed, Jr. Israel Bush Richardson James Robinson Dred Scott Justice Sonia Sotomayor Douglas Wilder Places/ideas: Commonwealth Cannon Branch Innovation Park Sulphur Springs Unity
Ibram X. Kendi, Arthur Reed, Lucinda Griffin among suggestions By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
A beloved school security guard who saw the best in students and believed in second chances. A nationally renowned anti-racist scholar and author who is also a local alum. A slave girl who was wounded in the First Battle of Manassas in an act of bravery. A local Black couple who helped integrate Prince William County schools and the U.S. Marine Corps. People who embodied those descriptions – specifically Arthur Reed, Ibram X. Kendi, Lucinda Griffin and Celestine and Carroll Braxton, respectively -- were among a list of more than 20 names suggested during in the first community meeting held Monday, June 22, to select new names for Stonewall Jackson High School and Stonewall Middle School. The Prince William School Board is renaming the schools, both located in Manassas, amid nationwide protests and calls to address systemic racism following the death of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man who was killed May 25 when a Minneapolis police officer pinned Floyd’s neck to the pavement with his knee, suffocating him as bystanders filmed it on their cell phones. Superintendent Steven Walts asked the school board on June 5 to initiate the process of renaming the schools as part of his “action plan to combat racism” in local schools. The school board complied and announced a one-week timeline in which to collect public input and select new names for the schools, both of which were named for Thomas Stonewall Jackson, a Confederate general who earned his nickname “Stonewall” during the First Battle of Manassas in 1861. Stonewall Middle School was
originally Stonewall Jackson High School when the school opened in 1962. The school became Stonewall Middle when the current high school opened with the same name about 10 years later. About 70 speakers signed up to speak during Monday’s meeting, a number that prompted school division officials to add a second public hearing, which will be held virtually on Thursday, June 25, at 7 p.m. Participants included current and former students of Stonewall Jackson High School as well as teachers, alumni, county residents and a man named Warren Christian, who said he was Jackson’s great-great-grandson. Christian said he and his brother penned an open letter to Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney about three years ago, asking that a statue of Jackson be removed from the city. Christian suggested that Stonewall Jackson High School be renamed for Ibram X. Kendi, a 2000 graduate of Stonewall Jackson High School whom Christian called “the pre-eminent scholar” of race and racism in the U.S. Kendi, whose name was Ibram H. Rogers when he attended Stonewall Jackson H.S., went on to earn a doctorate degree and write five books, including “Stamped from the beginning,” which won the National Book Award in 2016, and “How to be an Anti-Racist,” which he wrote while battling stage 4 colon cancer in 2018. Kendi taught at American University and in July will become the founding director of Boston University’s Center for Antiracist Research. “Honestly, I think it’s an embarrassment that the name has lasted this long,” Christian said. “To have a majority Black and Latinx school with the name of someone who fought to enslave their ancestors
is shameful and should have been changed a long time ago.” Several students and alumni also expressed support for naming the school after Kendi. Other students and recent graduates suggested naming the school for Reed, a former school security guard who died in 2018. One student said Reed had a “warm smile and a welcoming personality” and “served as a barrier between students and bad behavior.” Stonewall Jackson High School math teacher Charles Ronco called Reed an “angel of a man” and noted the school division has named only a few schools for African Americans, which he called “a reckoning we seriously have to consider.” Several spoke in favor of naming the schools for the Braxtons, a local Black couple who were civil rights trailblazers. Monique Braxton, the couple’s daughter, said her late mother was hired as a teacher in Prince William to help integrate the school division and would go on to teach for more than 30 years before retiring from Marsteller Middle. Her father, Carroll Braxton, who is 96, was a Montford Point Marine, meaning he was one of the first Black Marines to serve in the corps, a group that attended training camp in the 1940s at segregated Montford Point, outside Jacksonville, N.C. Still others pushed to name the school for Griffin, a slave girl who was injured on the battlefield during the First Battle of Manassas, or James Robinson, a freed slave who eventually bought a home on what is now the Manassas Battlefield and became one of the wealthiest freed blacks in the Manassas area in the 19th century. Ben Kim, a rising senior at Stonewall Jackson H.S. who serves as a student representative on the school board, said he personally fa-
vored Reed or Commonwealth High School but added: “We heard a lot of good suggestions tonight.” Only two speakers said they objected to renaming the schools. School board members serving on the schools’ “naming committee” include School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef, Brentsville District Representative Adele Jackson, Gainesville District Representative Jen Wall and Coles District Representative Lisa Zargarpur. At close of the meeting, all said they’d learned a lot about local history from the presenters and noted the difficult job of choosing the new names. The school board is scheduled to vote approve new names for both schools on Monday, June 29, also via a virtual meeting. “I have to say that I am astounded about the lack of knowledge I have about my own home,” said Zargarpur, who grew up in Manassas and attended Osbourn Park High School. “… These names … were not part of the history I grew up with, and it’s evident to me that we need to do a better job [of teaching local history].” The school board has not yet discussed how much changing the schools’ names will cost or where it will find the money. But Lateef said no money will be taken from any of the renovation projects currently slated for the nearly 50-year-old high school, which include $1.6 million in planned upgrades to stadium lighting and the concession building and a $1 million renovation to the school’s office area. “I don’t want anyone out there to believe that the money it will take to do this will take away from anything we want to do at Stonewall,” Lateef said.

Dems pick Osina, Sebesky Wolfe in As of 9:15 p.m. Tuesday, Rashid Manassas race
had received 19,729 votes, while Williams received 17,780. Rashid, 37, immigrated to the United States from Pakistan with his family in 1987. Rashid is practicing Muslim. There are only three Muslim Congressional Representatives in the U.S. House. This is Rashid’s second time running for office. In 2019, he ran for Virginia state Senate, losing to incumbent state Sen. Richard Stuart, R-28th.
Gade wins big
Daniel Gade defeated Thomas Speciale and Alissa Baldwin to win the Republican primary for U.S. Senate. The Associated Press called the race for Gade just before 8 p.m. Gade will face Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va, in the general election in November. With 98% of precincts reporting as of 9:15 p.m., Gade had captured 67% of the vote, while Speciale and Baldwin had both received less than 20%. Gade received 196,000 votes, Baldwin received 52,600 votes and Speciale received 42,000 votes. Gade is an Iraq war veteran. His entire right leg was amputated after he was wounded by a roadside bomb in Iraq in 2005. He currently serves as a professor of practice at American University’s School of Public Affairs. This is his first time running for political office. Speciale, who is a Prince William County resident, only received about 26% of the Republican vote in the county, while Gade took 59%.
Manassas City C ou n c i l m e mb e r s Pam Sebesky and Mark Wolfe and Pamela newcomer Tom Sebesky Osina won the Democratic primary for Manassas City Council out of a field of four candidates. Wolfe is vying for a fourth term, while Sebesky is seeking her second. This is Tom Osina Osina’s first time running for public office. Sebesky received 1,561 votes, Wolfe received 1,374 votes and Osina received 1,308 votes. Helen Zurita, a community activ- Mark Wolfe ist, garnered 863 votes, but it wasn’t enough to put her in third place. In an interview earlier today at Metz Middle School polling place, Zurita said she was running as a working-class candidate who would stick up for vulnerable communities in Manassas City. Wolfe, Sebesky and Osina will likely face a slate of three Republicans in November, including current Councilman Ian Lovejoy. It is not yet known who will fill out the rest of the Republican ticket.

POLICE BRIEFS Man arrested for twice sexually assaulting homeless woman Prince William County police arrested a man Saturday in connection with two sexual assaults of a 55-year-old homeless woman in Woodbridge, according to police. After the first incident, which occurred May 14, police were unable to apprehend the suspect. The second incident was reported to police at 10:18 a.m. on Friday, June 19. The victim told police a man entered her tent, located in a wooded area off Golansky Boulevard, while she was lying down and held her down before sexually assaulting her. The man then stole the woman’s firearm and fled on foot, said Officer Renee Carr, spokeswoman for Prince William County police. Detectives learned the man was the same suspect who sexually assaulted the victim on May 14 and
obtained arrest warrants, Carr said. On Saturday, June 20, officers received information regarding the possible location of the suspect in the area of Smoketown Road and Prince William Parkway, Carr said. “While canvasing the area, officers located the accused and took him into custody without incident,” Carr said. The accused, Josue Leobardo Moya Aguilar, 24, does not have a fixed address. He has been charged with two counts of rape, two counts of object sexual penetration, one count of attempted forcible sodomy and one count of grand larceny in connection with the incidents, Carr said in a news release. Aguilar is being held without bond. His court date is set for Sept. 15.
Apartment fire blamed on smoking materials A June 17 fire that displaced 22 Manassas residents was sparked by improperly discarded smoking materials on an exterior balcony, according to Prince William County fire officials. The fire was reported at 3:39 a.m. Wednesday, June 17. The Prince William County Fire Marshal had determined the cause of the blaze by about 10 a.m., according to Prince William County Assistant Fire Chief Matt Smolsky.
The fire damaged 12 apartments in the three-story building, located in the 10800 block of Gambril Drive, near the intersection of Sudley Manor Road and Ashton Avenue. The fire displaced 14 adults and eight children, but there were no injuries, Smolsky said. Crews worked about 30 minutes to extinguish the fire, Smolsky said. The American Red Cross responded to the scene and is assisting the displaced residents, Smolsky said.

All lit up in red, white and blue Chapman-Beverley Mill kicks off bright, new fundraising effort By John Toler
Times Staff Writer
Starting Friday, local residents and travelers along Interstate 66 and U.S. 55 east of The Plains are in for a rare treat as they pass the Chapman-Beverley Mill in Thoroughfare Gap. The walls of the historic structure will be lighted from sundown to sunrise by red, white and blue LED spotlights, a project undertaken by the Turn the Mill Around Campaign, owners of the mill, as a way to celebrate Independence Day and kick off their 2020 fundraising efforts. The mill was burned in October 1998, shortly before a foundation took ownership of the historic structure on the Fauquier-Prince William county line to preserve it as a working museum. At the time it seemed the mill, gutted to its stone walls, would have to be demolished. But the Turn the Mill Around Campaign, a 501(c)(3) corporation made up of local preservationists and history lovers, was quickly organized. Plans were made to preserve what survived. Later, the Turn the Mill Around Campaign developed a master plan incorporating visitor trails, interpretive signage and other assets to create an educational site. Recent improvements include the installation of temporary bathrooms, road improvements, parking facilities and
ADA-compliant access. Porter Gaier of Orlean was recently appointed executive director of the Turn the Mill Around Campaign. “The structure itself is secure, and now the fun part starts,” she explained. “Things like getting the stones repointed so we can put on a new water wheel, getting the head races back up so we can have water come back up to the building and getting the iconic gables lost in the fire back on.” Central to making these improvements is developing a partnership with the community. Gaier sees the mill, which dates back to 1742, as an active archeological site that could be used for events, tours, lectures and art classes. “It’s such a treasure… we want to share it with everybody,” she added, noting that for more than 150 years, the Chapman-Beverley Mill played a significant role in the agricultural, industrial and economic growth of the entire area. “I planned the light display to reignite curiosity about the mill and get the community involved, and to reinvigorate our fundraising campaign,” said Gaier. “We’re slowly making improvements, but that is definitely contingent on community involvement.” Due to Covid-19 restrictions, it is hoped that the mill will be reopening soon.

287(g), from page 1 The activists erupted in cheers and chants of “We did it!” and “This is home! This is home!” “This is a new Prince William County! This is the new reality right now for black people, brown people, people of all colors,” said Luis Aguilar, state director of CASA in Virginia, which organized a rally that began earlier that night in the pouring rain. “We are so happy that we ended the racist, anti-immigrant, 287(g) program.” The 287(g) agreement, which is voluntary for localities, has been a point of contention for area residents and officials since it was first signed by county officials in 2007. Under the agreement, local sheriff’s deputies in the jail work as ICE agents, giving ICE direct access to local inmates. Prince William County and Culpeper County are the only localities in Virginia that hold 287(g) agreements with ICE.
Police Chief Barry Barnard: 287(g) a barrier to trust
The June 17 jail board meeting began at 6 p.m. and included a lengthy discussion about the chilling effect the agreement has had on public trust between law enforcement and the community since its inception in 2007. Prince William County Police Chief Barry Barnard, who is retiring on June 30, was an influential voice in the debate. Barnard questioned many aspects of the program and wondered aloud why only two counties in Virginia – Prince William and Culpeper – retained such an agreement with ICE. Barnard further said the agreement “does not assist us in local policing” and had created barriers to building trust between police and majority-minority Prince William County. “This program that can create an issue for us on the trust horizon. Some immigrant communities will avoid the police to keep themselves or loved ones out of the jail,” Barnard said. “I wonder if this program has run its course.” Barnard added that he hasn’t “seen any data that shows a public safety benefit from 287(g).” Del. Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st, a new citizen at-large appointee to the jail board, an immigrant from Peru and the first Latina to serve in the Virginia General Assembly, also made her position clear. “I will tell you as a voice in the immigrant community, we don’t like this program,” Guzman said during the meeting. Guzman further noted that of 193 emails the jail board received before the vote, only 36 were in favor of extending 287(g), while 157 expressed opposition. Tracey Lenox, who was recently made chief public defender in Prince William County, noted 287(g) has “a storied history in Prince William County,” a reference to former Prince William County board chairman Corey Stewart, who has been a staunch advocate of the agreement dating back to its inception in 2007. Lenox said the agreement “has been a contentious issue in this county” and “divides this county.” Regardless of whether a community holds a 287(g) agreement with ICE, Virginia law requires all jails
ICE: Prince William’s 287(g) agreement led to 579 deportations since 2018 Data released from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement shows that a total of 579 people booked into the local jail have been deported from the U.S. since 2018 under the county’s 287(g) agreement with ICE. The severity of the criminal charges that led to an individuals’ arrest and eventual deportation was not disclosed.

Convicted Criminal Pending Criminal Charges Criminal Charges dropped or dismissed to determine all inmates’ citizenship. Jail officers must “make an immigration alien query” to ICE for any person born in a country other than the United States who is a citizen of a country other than the United States, or if a their country of birth or citizenship is unknown, the law states. Commonwealth’s Attorney Amy Ashworth, who also serves on the jail board, noted that any person charged with a serious crime in the county would not be released on bail and would be held in custody long enough for ICE to issue a detainer for them if the agency chose to do so. Hill, the jail board chairman, was in office when the agreement was first signed. He has said repeatedly that he considers 287(g) another “tool in the toolbox” that helps keep the residents safe. CASA in Virginia had staged several rallies in opposition of the 287(g) agreement ahead of the vote. Hilda Romero, who came to the rally with her son, Angel, said living in Prince William County as an immigrant from Mexico was a “nightmare” back in 2007, when the county supervisors first began a local crackdown on illegal immigration under Stewart’s leadership. “Every day, I lived in fear that I would be deported to our home country,” Romero said. Eventually, the family moved to Stafford County, which does not have a 287(g) program, even though the family suffered economically because of it. She said the move was difficult for her children, who were in grade school at the time and missed their friends and classmates. “And that’s why today our kids are activists in Prince William because they worked to change this county to make sure immigrants in our county have the right to live without fear,” Romero said.

EDITORIAL
Doing the right thing starts now As Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “The time is always right to do the right thing.” But sometimes it takes a public awakening – and a new generation of leaders – to gain a clearer understanding of what indeed is the right path. Such was the case in Prince William County this past week when a new generation of political leaders began the process of making big local changes many believe are long overdue. Last Tuesday, June 16, Supervisor Margaret Franklin asked county staff to initiate the process of stripping Confederate President Jefferson Davis’s name from U.S. 1, a major thoroughfare in racially diverse eastern Prince William County. On Wednesday, June 17, the Prince William-Manassas Regional Jail Board declined to even entertain a motion to extend the county jail’s 287(g) agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which many say has stained the county’s reputation and strained immigrant residents’ relationship with local police for years. On Monday, June 22, the county school board began hearing suggestions for renaming Stonewall Jackson High and Stonewall Middle schools, setting off a lightning-fast, one-week timeline for stripping the former Confederate general’s name from not one but two public schools in Manassas, both of which enroll mostly Black and Hispanic students. All of this, of course, comes in the wake of nationwide protests and civil unrest following the police killing of George Floyd on Memorial Day. Each of these developments marks a sea change in the culture of a county where residents have lived with these realities for decades. It wasn’t long ago that changing the names of the Stonewall Jackson schools and Jefferson Davis Highway, or doing away with the county jail’s cooperation with ICE, seemed politically impossible. In 2017, proposals to change the schools’ names and that of Jeff Davis High-
way failed to even get a fair hearing in front of either the school board or the board of supervisors despite the fact that both were floated after the deadly “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, which, as awful as it was, proved an insufficient catalyst for change. What seems to be different this time is that the county has elected a new set of leaders who finally reflect the county’s diversity and understand the need to react to the ground shifting beneath our feet. The county’s youth is demanding change and their votes are giving like-minded politicians the courage to act. It was exactly those young people – now of voting age – who led the protests and rallies against 287(g) in recent weeks. They were people like Angel Romero, 21, whose family left Dumfries 10 years ago because their mixed immigration status made them feel unsafe in Prince William and unnecessarily vulnerable to immigration enforcement. His mom, Hilda Romero, said both her adult kids are activists now because they don’t want other young immigrants to live in fear. They found common ground this week with retiring Prince William County Police Chief Barry Barnard, who told the jail board that 287(g) had a been a barrier to building trust between police and local immigrant communities and that the value of the program, which cost local taxpayers about $300,000 a year, had “run its course.” At Stonewall Jackson High School, young leaders fighting for a better future for their school and its majority-minority students are numerous and include, importantly, renown scholar and author Ibram X. Kendi, a 2000 graduate of Stonewall Jackson High School who is now leading a national conversation on the need to be “anti-racist” to effect change. Both examples underscore the impact of the county’s youth in directing county leaders forward toward the right path. The time to take that path is now.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Dads (and moms) should be remembered everyday Father’s Day was celebrated on Sunday, June 21, this year. People celebrate it by giving cards, presents, and much more to make it memorable. But does this mean we should celebrate this day only once in a year? No. My religion tells us to honor and respect parents always. Being Muslims, we care for our parents everyday not only as a duty but also to show our love for them. Even giving
a hug or saying thank you to your father shows you love him. My father cares for us and does a lot of stuff for us. We should think about it and remember it. He finds great educational movies to watch with us, gets groceries in these difficult times, tells us cool stories. Therefore, I want to say we should celebrate our fathers and mothers every day.

Gold Cup’s a go Eight weeks after signature steeplechase event was postponed, races will be run without fans By Betsy Burke Parker Special to the Times
Crowds have been estimated at 60,000 for past Gold Cups. Only jockeys, trainers, grooms and assorted personnel are allowed at Saturday’s races.
The traditional Virginia spring steeplechase circuit finale will fulfill its normal role this year, eight weeks later than planned. Having been rescheduled from May 2 due to the pandemic, the Virginia Gold Cup runs this Saturday, June 27 at Great Meadow in The Plains. For the first time in the event’s 98-year history, no spectators are allowed, only jockeys, trainers, grooms and essential personnel. The races will be livestreamed starting at 12:30 p.m. The program attracted 136 entries, with 104 horses in 10 races, 32 also-eligible. Headliner Virginia Gold Cup timber stake attracted a pair of champions, Andi’amu and Doc Cebu, first and second in the June 13 Middleburg Hunt Cup. The Semmes hurdle stakes lured two Eclipse Award winners, Scorpiancer (2017) and Zanjabeel (2018), in

The horse industry is critical to Virginia’s economy. The Virginia Department of Agriculture released a study last year that horses and horse events bring more than $2 billion annually in economic development to a field of 11. Rounding out the undercard are the cross-country steeplethon, two divisions of a ratings handicap and maiden hurdles. There will be online, virtual fancy hat and tailgate contests, and trivia questions will be posted on Gold Cup social media – Facebook and Twitter – through the day asking questions about the livestream. The first to post correct answers win tickets to future Gold Cup races, hats, shirts and more. “We hope some of our many fans will celebrate the day with safe-distancing watch parties, tailgating and hat contests,” said race co-chair Will Allison. “It will be a bittersweet day without fans in attendance, but ultimately being able to host race day is a victory for us.”

Meg Barr Robert Kerry Iddins May 31, 1950 – June 18, 2020 Kerry was born on May 31, 1950, at Baptist Hospital in Knoxville, Tennessee. He is preceded in death by his parents, Robert and June Iddins and Donald and Sarah Van Setters. He is survived by his wife of 46 years Janice; his 3 children, Joanna Frick (Jason), Jessica Tower (Jamie), Jordan Iddins, and 2 grandchildren, Jared Tower and Jackson Tower, 8 siblings, Barry Iddins, Donna Iddins, Joel Iddins (Brenda), Keith Iddins (Erika), Teresa Lyons (Teddy), Rhonda Clark (Mark), Jeanne Leighty, Jan Cable (Frank), an uncle, Bart Iddins, an aunt, Mary John James and numerous cousins, nieces and nephews. Kerry spent his childhood years on the family farm in Loudoun, Tennessee where he enjoyed playing in the fields and riding his pony. Kerry attended Central High School in Knoxville, Tennessee until 11th Grade. He then moved to Northern Virginia, where he graduated from Mt. Vernon High School in 1968. In October 1969, Kerry enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. On November 11 (Veteran’s Day), Kerry left for Boot Camp at Parris Island, SC. Upon completing training, Kerry was stationed at Las Flores, Camp Pendleton. Soon thereafter, Kerry volunteered for overseas duty, which resulted in jungle warfare training for Vietnam. From there, Kerry flew to Okinawa, Japan. Of the 17 Marines with the same MOS training, 8 stayed in Okinawa and the other 9 went to Vietnam. Kerry was one of the 8 that stayed in Okinawa. The tour of duty in Okinawa was for 1 year. Two months of that time were spent in Camp Fuji, Japan. Kerry was honorably discharged from active duty on September 17th, 1971. In 1972, Kerry would meet his future wife, Janice McLean. After 3 months of dating, they got engaged and were married on September 22, 1973. They would soon be blessed with 3 beautiful children, Joanna Gail, Jessica Anne, and Jordan Robert. Kerry and Janice were both brought up in Christian homes, where going to church was a part of life and they raised their children in the same manner. Kerry worked hard to provide a nice home and comfortable life for his family Kerry spent 47 years in the Electrical trade as a member of the Electrical Workers Local Union #26 Washington, DC. Kerry won numerous awards for his excellence on the job, no matter what task he was asked to perform. He enjoyed being a foreman and especially the quality control work he did later in his career. Kerry was a master electrician holding licenses in all 3 area jurisdictions (DC, Maryland, and Virginia). Kerry could outwork men half his age. At the age of 43, Kerry received his Black Belt in Karate (a dream he had set for himself years prior). He was not going to let age stand in the way of what he wanted. Kerry also loved to take long rides on his Harley Davidson V-Rod enjoying the Virginia countryside. Kerry loved being a grandfather and loved to go camping with his two grandsons. He enjoyed playing with them, taking them for rides on the riding lawn mower and 4-wheeler, and swimming in the pool. Kerry’s legacy is one of service. Service to God, his church, his country, his family and others. Kerry always gave the best of himself and loved with his whole heart.
With profound sadness, our family announces the May 29, 2020 passing of Meg Sales Barr, after a lengthy battle with cancer. She was 71 years old. Meg drew all her strength from her personal and special relationship with her Savior Jesus Christ and the inworking power of the Holy Spirit, until her spirit, joined in oneness with the Holy Spirit left her body, ascending back into God from whence she came. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Meg battled cancer with all her being, always with grace and dignity. No matter how sick she was, she was ever determined. When anyone else would have broken, Meg stayed strong. Through her, we know what resilience and perseverance truly look like. Meg was born in Olean, NY, on August 21, 1948 and grew up in Alexandria, VA. After graduating from Mt. Vernon High School, she was hired as a stenographer for the Federal Government. While enrolled at Northern Virginia Community College where she studied computer science, Meg was accepted into a Federal Government internship program and became a computer programmer and analyst. In 1985 she became a project manager with USA Today. In 1989, letting her entrepreneurial spirit take flight, she launched Printing Professionals, a staffing agency for the printing industry. Her first-hand experience of the happiness and many blessings of adoption through her adopted granddaughter led Meg to Forever Families Adoption Services in 2011 where she worked until 2019. Meg loved and enjoyed her church family and serving within her community, which was evident in the many ministries she was involved with. Whether it was caring for babies in the church nursery; serving food at the community soup kitchen; creating weekly church newsletters; leading in Bible studies; or organizing Vacation Bible School, church yard sales, and weekly church dinners; her love and passion for the church shined brightly and inspired many. She is survived by her devoted and loving husband, James Barr; five children: Kirsten L. Wicht (Daniel) of Middleburg, VA; Kourtney M. Barker (Sherman) of Richmond, VA; Raymond L. Sales, Jr. (Chantel) of Woodbridge, VA; Karmen R. Steckman (John) and Timothy M. Sales (Michelle), both of Stafford, VA; her mother, Margit Elisabeth Green of Bumpass, VA; sister Sonia Green of Arlington, VA; and sister Heidi Davis (David) of Bumpass, VA; three step-children: Sandy Payne (Pete), Cindy Shackelford (John), and Bryan Barr (Sara) – all of Stafford, VA; twelve grandchildren: Elisabeth Wicht; Loren Allison, Megan and Justin Barker; Ashleigh Sales, Kaitlyn Rogers, Mackenzie and Madison Lindholm, Delaney Rasmussen and Shannon Steckman; Kendall and Jordyn Sales; twelve step-grandchildren: Isaiah and Nathan Payne; Ashley and Thomas Shackleford, Johnathan Barr; Mike, Heather, Shannon, Obie, Brandon and Ryleigh Barr; three great-grandchildren: Ava Blackburn, Alaina Allison and Tristan Sales; and four step-great-grandchildren: Kaylee and Chris Shackelford; and Marlee and Remmy Piper. Meg was predeceased by her father, William Allen Green, in 1989 and her first husband, Raymond Lee Sales, in 2011. A memorial service will be scheduled at a later date. Memorial donations in memory of Meg can be made to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation or Abundant Life Assembly of God (Stafford).

Professional Services TAKING OUT THE TRASH Friday night fistfight came first round all too soon Your two shiners couldn’t focus on the man in the moon Saw stars light up your world before light slipped away Didn’t mean to hit ya babe just another bad day Woke up in a world full of pain, nothing new Revowed to leave that world maybe in a day or two Tried to summon a smile as you opened the door Lied to explain the blood stain that wasn’t there before Yes you’ll live out your life in an imperfect world Shed a million tears lying in a perfect fetal curl Cringing in mortal fear as you wait for the end Yes you live in the hellish world of battered women Dumped out your pills, was time to end it all But your eyes beheld picture perfects hanging on the wall There sat Momma, with a perfect smile in place Oh but how skillfully she hid the bruises on her face Friday night fistfight came round once mtore Tried to hide a bruise as the deputy stood in the door Said he’d hit a drunk driver in a head-on crash You copped a smile as you thanked Alkie for taking out the trash Friday night fistfights won’t come round anymore Tried to hide your delight as the deputy stood in the door Yes the master hit a drunk driver in a head-on crash You copped a smile as you thanked Alkie for taking out the trash Written by: B’anne Phillips www.sinnerstage.com
