Middletown - “April is the Cruelest Month”

By Sue Golden Frederick County Report

Middletown’s May town council meeting was so short that people were still arriving as council members were leaving. The agenda was set. The minutes of the April meeting were unanimously approved.

The first and second readings of the Town of Middletown Budget for fiscal year 2013 – 2014 were unanimously approved. A motion to abate $3,587.07 for 2007 personal property tax per the Code of Virginia Section § 58.1-3940 was unanimously approved.

A motion to place an ad in the Wayside Theatre’s program in the amount of $250 was unanimously approved. A motion to pay VDOT $100 for the July 4th parade permit was unanimously approved.

A motion to award a scholarship from the Julian Carper Scholarship Fund was unanimously approved. The presentation of the bills was unanimously approved.

The third and final Reading of “An Ordinance to Amend Water, Chapter 15, Article III, Water, Rates and Charges, Sec. 15-25 (A), Schedule, of the Code of the Town of Middletown, Virginia” was

unanimously approved. The “Third and Final Reading of the Town of Middletown’s Comprehensive Plan 2013-2033” was unanimously passed.

Councilor Trip Chewning, the chair of the personnel and finance committee, was literally waxing poetic when he gave the treasurer’s report. “T.S. Eliot said that ‘April is the cruelest month,’ but not for Middletown.”

In April, Middletown had revenue of $363,115. Town expenses were only $116,354. Councilor Chewning was practically gloating when he announced that Middle-

town was in the black in April by $203,943.

Councilor Mary Shull moved out of Middletown, so there is a vacancy on the town council.

There is one current vacancy on the planning commission with a second expected in the near future. Anyone interested in any of

these positions should contact town hall.

There will be a softball tournament on May 25th with proceeds benefiting the July 4th planning committee. Anyone interested in entering a team should inquire at town hall.

By Sue Golden Frederick County Report A little rain does not stop the fun for dog lovers and their dogs. Last Saturday started with light to heavy drizzle. Not to be deterred, the vendors for the Frederick County Canine Carnival were out in force. Sherando Park came alive with activity. The Blue Ridge Dog Training Club gave an agility demonstration. Frederick County’s Fire and Rescue and the Sheriff ’s department gave K-9 demonstrations.

Flying Circus Concessions provided food. “Even with the dreary weath-

er everyone had a great time,� said Chris Litzenberg Cregar of Pawsitively Heaven Grooming and Daycare in Stephens City. “The turnout increased as the weather got better. Having a food vendor was a great addition. The pools are always a big hit with the dogs; everyone loves watching the dogs play in the pools and I won a two and a half gallon water bowl in the silent auction,� Cregar said.

Kim and Charlie Reading of Just Like Home Kennels in Strasburg were returning vendors. “It is great to see all of the owners and dogs having such a great time. There were a lot of people

Winchester Featured in National Report on City Leadership for Children and Families

Timbrook House Youth Reporting Center Winchester is featured in a new report highlighting promising city efforts to improve the lives of children, youth, and families in communities with populations below 75,000. The city was selected for inclusion in the report for the Winchester Police Department’s Timbrook House Youth Reporting Center (YRC) initiative.

The Timbrook House Youth Reporting Center provides alternatives to detention for atrisk youth, including those who violate terms of probation or who commit new crimes while on probation. Referrals to the Timbrook House come from the school system or juvenile court.

Many of the referred youth are nonviolent offenders with serious truancy or behavioral problems who previously would have been sent to detention facilities or expelled from school.

Purpose

community service projects. The students build positive relationships with police officers, school officials, and community leaders.

Each evening students receive tutoring and remedial education assistance from Winchester Public School teachers. Representatives from community organizations offer a wide range of prevention and intervention programs to the students and their families. Winchester Police Officers are assigned to operate the Youth Reporting Center, which involves monitoring attendance, managing behavior, and scheduling alternative programs.

History The Timbrook House is next to the alleyway where Sergeant Ricky Timbrook was gunned down in the line of duty on October 29, 1999. His murderer, Edward Nathaniel Bell, hid in the basement of the house before being arrested by officers the following day.

In the first 18 months, the Youth Reporting Center served 17 youth with roughly four or five teenagers in the program at any given time. The police department uses pre and postprogram assessments and a sixmonth follow-up to track results on a range of indicators and has reported a number of promising outcomes.

The number of contacts between the police department and youth referred to the Timbrook House declined by 36 percent by the end of the program and 58 percent after six months.

The number of court appearances declined 69 percent by the six-month follow-up.

By the end of the program and after six months, there was a substantial decrease in days in which youth were absent from school.

The average student grade point average increased by .09 points

by the end of the program and .22 points after six months.

The House The house includes a living room with a sitting area, a complete kitchen with a dining room table where the students enjoy a meal each evening, and a classroom with six computer stations.

For Virginia Inmates, Little Hope of Parole

By Sam Isaacs Capital News Service

RICHMOND – In the film “The Shawshank Redemption,” Morgan Freeman’s character, Red, appeared in front of the parole board and explained why he should be released from prison after serving 40 years of a life sentence for killing a man: “There’s not a day goes by I don’t feel regret. Not because I’m in here, or because you think I should. I look back on the way I was then: a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. But I can’t. That kid’s long gone, and this old man is all that’s left.”

In the movie, Red gets parole. In real-life Virginia, the system could not be any different: Even old men – prisoners in their 70s and 80s who have served decades behind bars – are routinely denied parole.

“My husband has been in jail for 25 years. He was told he would be eligible for parole 12 years ago, which means for the past 12 years, we have gotten our hopes up and have been let down time and time again. He is in his 70s, and he just wants to come home,” said the wife of 73-year-old prisoner. She asked that her name not be published.

The Virginia General Assembly abolished parole in 1995 under then-Gov. George Allen. So criminal defendants sentenced to prison after 1995 have no opportunity for parole at all.

But more than 3,500 people in Virginia’s prison system committed their crime before 1995, and they are eligible for parole under the old system, according to William W.

Muse, chairman of the Virginia Parole Board.

At least, those prisoners are theoretically eligible for parole. In practice, they rarely get it. In 2012, the Parole Board decided 3,156 cases and granted parole to just 116 prisoners, according to Virginia CURE, an advocacy group for criminal justice reforms.

In other words, prisoners up for parole had just a 3.7 percent chance of getting it. In 2011, the odds were even worse – 3.5 percent.

The Parole Board members are appointed by the governor and serve terms of four years. Muse said the board itself does not interview inmates.

“The parole examiners do the interviews in person or by video conference. We look at the examiner’s as well as Department of Corrections’ data on the original offense and how he has acted since he was incarcerated. After that, the decision is basically done by the computer,” Muse said.

An inmate goes up for parole once a year; if denied, he (the vast majority of prisoners are men) gets a list of reasons based on data entered into computers by the Parole Board.

In January, for example, the board

denied parole to an 82-year-old man. The reasons: “Serious disregard for property rights” and “Serious nature and circumstances of offense.” (The documents on the Parole Board’s website do not indicate the crime.)

That same month, a 75-year-old man was also denied parole. The board gave four reasons: “Considering all of the offender’s records, the Board concludes that the offender should serve more of the sentence prior to release on parole” “History of violence – indicates serious risk to the community” “Risk to the community” “Serious nature and circumstances of offense” The inmate’s wife said the reasons for denial are overly vague and serve no constructive purposes.

“The inmates get trapped with ‘Serious nature of the offense’ quite often, which essentially means in the eyes of the Parole Board, you haven’t served enough time. There is no clear knowledge of what these inmates need to do to have their parole granted. They need a definite goal,” she said.

She also said the Parole Board’s five-member staff may not be large enough to process the near 4,000

inmates eligible for parole.

“With only two full-time members, it is impossible for the board to personally meet with every prisoner. It would be nice if they could meet with the prisoners themselves so they could at least know who they are talking to rather than base their decisions off of words on a

computer screen,” the woman said.

Capital News Service examined the Parole Board’s decisions for December and January. During those two months, the board denied parole in 536 of 547 cases – 98 percent. Parole was denied to every prisoner over age 51, including 21 prisoners over 70.

Muse said the high number of elderly denials in that stretch was a coincidence.

During this year’s legislative session, Delegate Mark Sickles, D-Alexandria, proposed a bill requiring the Parole Board to give inmates “specific reasons” why they have been denied granted parole. The General Assembly unanimously passed House Bill 2103, and Gov. Bob McDonnell signed it into law.

“It is an unjust situation. It is hard to move any legislation on this topic in Virginia, but small steps are still celebrated. This bill was a no-brainer,” Sickles said. “How are these prisoners supposed to know what to do and what they are doing wrong with no clear insight at all?”

In Virginia, being tough on criminals is a popular, easy stance for politicians to take, Sickles noted.

But in reality, there are flaws in the way the criminal justice system processes criminals.

“In politics, if it takes time to explain an issue, you are losing.

No one takes the time to learn the facts. Saying you are tough on crime may go over well on the campaign trail, but in reality, crime isn’t lower now than in 1995 before parole was abolished. In many cases, new prisoners are committing the same crimes as old prisoners, and are getting out of jail faster than the pre-1995 inmates,” Sickles said.

Virginia CURE, a non-profit

group, supports inmates and families in the criminal justice and prison system. Carla Peterson, the organization’s director, said Sickles’ bill is a step, albeit a small one, in the right direction.

“A previous bill required the parole board to put grant rates on the Internet. Once that happened, we started to see the same three or four reasons,” Peterson said.

“What Delegate Sickles’ bill will hopefully do is provide a more individualized look into why an inmate has not been granted parole.

Bills related to parole have to be small in scale, because there is no way a powerful bill would ever pass in Virginia.”

Stephen Northup, the executive director of Virginians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty and a retired lawyer, dedicated a portion of his career to parole reform “I have represented a number of prisoners before the Parole Board

with some success. At one point, I was asked to work on the problem with parole in Virginia. We filed a class action lawsuit in February of 2010 in an attempt to open up the process. Unfortunately, the case was thrown out by the District Court in a 2-1 decision,” Northup said.

He said the high denial rate for parole in Virginia has an effect on more than just the inmates and their families.

“Many model prisoners are getting turned down for ‘Nature of the crime.’ The door has been slammed on ‘old law’ prisoners. Many of them have good records but are made to rot in prison at the taxpayer’s expense. It isn’t cheap to keep a 70-year-old in jail. It has gotten to the point where the governor is the only person that can change this,” he said.

HB 2103 wasn’t the only criminal justice reform bill before the Gen-

“Lesson learned, next time I’ll just put one press release out to cover the entire operation.”

Regional task force sweeps thru drug community Operation Valley Venue’ teamed up fed, state, local law enforcement

Bradley Martin, Jeremie Simpson and Matthew Hoenig.

By Roger Bianchini Special to FC Report On April 29, in my role as managing editor of Warren County Report I received a press release announcing a regional drug and gang task force operation involving 13 local jurisdictional, three state and two federal agencies. It sounded like a BIG one, involving: • 2 fed agencies: ATF & DEA (heavy hitters Alcohol Tobacco & Firearms and Drug Enforcement Agency); • 3 state agencies: Virginia State Police, NW Regional Drug & Gang Task Force and the Virginia Department Game and Inland Fisheries.

• 2 Parole-Probation Districts: 39 & 11; • 5 county sheriff ’s offices: Frederick , Clarke, Warren , Shenandoah

Areas of elevated narcotics activities were targeted in an effort to get drugs off the streets,” the press release stated, adding, “The eight hour operation aimed at identifying, targeting and arresting individuals responsible for the distribution, manufacturing, and transportation of illegal narcotics.”

But then a bad moment as we (that’s an editorial “we”, I’m not schizophrenic) perused the result of the operation: $2,100 in seized drugs; 8 narcotics violations and only 12 people charged.” Seemed a lot of effort for little result - an av-

Then the breakthrough came – a return message, “… been away from office a few days, please call me back.”

I had him, err them … I dialed.

“What’s up with all this multi-jurisdictional, multi-tiered effort for $2100 in drugs taken from a bunch of dumb-assed parole violators?” I asked – sort of.

“Which press release did you get, the Warren County-Front Royal one?” Special Agent Perry queried.

“HUH?” I replied.

“I sent out stats for each jurisdiction,” the special agent elaborated.

UH, so the $2100, 12-arrest numbers are for Warren County and Front Royal only?” I circled less

Quick to assure the wise and efficient use of taxpayer money at all levels, in all jurisdictions, this reporter poised to jump down the throat of officials at each one of those levels: federal, state and local – after all I usually only get to beat up local officials.

“Who’s in charge here?!!?” we demanded to know from the local source of our PR, “heads will roll; accountability is at hand!”

We were pointed to Special Agent Jay Perry of the Virginia State Police by the Warren County Sheriff ’s Office. Our first call got an answering machine. Identifying myself as a reporter, I left a number, name of paper and message that I wanted to discuss the financial logistics of “Operation Valley Venue.”

menacingly.

“Yea, overall there were over $145,000 in drugs seized and about 100 arrests in all the jurisdictions – I can send you exact numbers tomorrow when I get back to my computer,” agent Perry offered (those precise numbers included: $145,614 in drugs seized, materials including one silencer, one pipe bomb, and some ammo; two fugitives seized; 94 charges; and minimal costs above normal operational budgets for each agency, mostly due to overtime incurred during the actual street sweep).

“Yea, that would be GREAT, very helpful in writing, I mean rewriting, my story. Not quite the wasteful exercise in futility and taxpayer money I had IMAGINED from

those numbers in the PR I got.”

“Lesson learned, next time I’ll just put one press release out to cover the entire operation,” the special agent said in response to my confusion over the local numbers alone being included in the “Operation Valley Venue” press release.

“Any time – I guess that’s why I’m an editor, not a Pulitzer Prize winner,” I offered. “Oh, and never mind about those numbers for the directors of the DEA and ATF … But by the way, do you have numbers for Winchester and Frederick County?”

Winchester-Frederick County With the help of Winchester PD I got this: “The North End Team covered the City of Winchester and

Frederick County. Agents conducted 21 searches of residences with probation officers … The following drugs were found during searches of homes; heroin, marijuana, crack cocaine, powder cocaine, and prescription drugs … This was the first operation of its kind conducted in Winchester and Frederick County and is part of the Task Force’s effort to get drugs off our streets and make our area a safer place to live.”

Okay, here come the BIG numbers from the larger city-county population centers to our north, I thought: “Agents had encounters with four known gang members. More than $900 of U.S. Currency was taken from a home in the 100 block of Lamden Avenue. Five homes were cited with code violations and a

A fine home offered by Weichert® 431 Freezeland Manor Drive, Linden, VA $569,000 WR8042093

residence on Bellview Avenue was deemed uninhabitable by Zoning and Inspections.”

Arrests included: Jeremie Simpson for probation violation – 200 block of Millwood Avenue, Winchester; Matthew Hoenig for possession of narcotics and probation violation – 500 block of North Kent Street, Winchester; Terry Johnson for providing false information to a law enforcement officer – 100 block of Lamden Av-

enue, Winchester; Carroll Smith for possession of marijuana, 200 block of Ash Hollow Drive, Frederick County; Bradley Martin for probation violation, 1300 block of Pitcock Lane, Frederick County; Kathleen Stickley for possession of marijuana, 200 block of Cougar Trail, Frederick County.

A dollar value of the drugs seized in Winchester and Frederick County was not specified in the VSP press release on that area.

Virginia Mathematics and Science Coalition Recognizes Dowell J. Howard Center The Virginia Mathematics and Science Coalition presented representatives from Frederick County Public Schools with a “Programs that Work” award during a ceremony Tuesday night at the Science Museum of Virginia in Richmond. Dowell J. Howard Center Principal Jan Ball-Brooks, math teacher Meredith Zirkle, carpentry teacher Tom Withers and Frederick County Public Schools Supervisor of Math and World Languages Debbie Crawford accepted the award which was given for the geometry and carpentry program at the Dowell J. Howard Center.

Crawford says, “This creative, collaborative effort is an example of a course that helps students develop the real-world problem-solving skills they need to be successful in college and careers. It connects our core subjects with our career and technical education program which is led by Supervisor of Career and Technical Education Steve Straight.”

The project, which is part of a Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) initiative, is a collaboration between the geometry and carpentry courses taught at the Dowell J. Howard Center.

Zirkle says, “Students who enroll in the class gain a better understanding of mathematics by having a real-life application of the concepts

being taught. Students learn the mathematics and then apply the mathematical concepts by working on a carpentry-based project. Students have used the math skills to measure and cut materials appropriately, build sheds, peg boards, and other projects. This results in students feeling more confident about their abilities to solve mathematical problems. Students have stopped asking ‘Why do we need to know this?’ and are now asking ‘When can we go to shop?’”

Schools Superintendent David Sovine says, “Mrs. Crawford and the team at the Dowell J. Howard Center are very deserving of this statewide recognition. By collaborating and connecting the geometry and carpentry programs at the Dowell J. Howard Center, they are not only helping students learn math concepts but also helping them see how those concepts can be applied in everyday life. Their work is an excellent example of what occurs each day across our school division as teachers, administrators and other staff work together to reach all students and help them be successful.”

The Virginia Mathematics and Science Coalition presented just three “Programs that Work” awards to K-12 schools this year. One was presented for an elementary school program, one was presented for a

Sherando Names Jamie McCarty its New Cross Country Coach Sherando High School has named Jamie McCarty its new cross country coach. The 1993 James Wood High School graduate succeeds Tim Ritter who is retiring as the cross country coach at Sherando after leading the Warriors for 10 seasons. During Ritter’s tenure as coach, the Sherando boys’ cross country team compiled a record of 78-15 while the girls’ team had a record of 66-32. Ritter also led the Warriors to three Northwestern District Boys’ Cross Country Championships.

McCarty has served as the cross country coach at Pulaski County High School since 2005. He’s also been the school’s track and field coach since 2006. McCarty has enjoyed a great deal of success at Pulaski County High School. He has been named the River Ridge District Cross Country Coach of the Year on two separate occasions.

Sherando High School Principal John Nelson says, “We’re looking forward to welcoming Coach McCarty back home to Frederick County.

He has a great deal of experience coaching cross country and will be able to build upon the success our program has enjoyed over the past decade under Coach Ritter’s leadership.”

McCarty earned a bachelor’s degree in management from Radford University.

Willa Cather’s O Pioneers! selected as the 2013 One Book One Community choice Willa Cather’s O Pioneers! has been selected as the one book the community will be reading this year.

The One Book One Community committee announced its choice of O Pioneers! Wednesday evening in the Benham Lobby on the ground floor level of Handley Library.

Handley Regional Library and O Pioneers! have something important in common: both are celebrating their one hundredth anniversary this year. Originally published in June 1913, Willa Cather once revealed O Pioneers! is where she stopped writing like other authors and found her own voice.

Willa Sibert Cather was born December 7, 1873 near Gore in western Frederick County, Virginia, and moved to Red Cloud, Nebraska, with her family in 1883 at the age of 9. Her early years in Frederick County were spent at Willow Shade and scenes around her childhood home and the City of Winchester are recreated in some of her novels. Cather died on April 24, 1947.

O Pioneers! is available in print edition, and is downloadable as an audiobook or free e-book from the library (www.handleyregional.org).

Another source for the free e-book is The Gutenberg Project (http:// www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/24).
