Lynn Says
What to do if you get pulled over by a cop By Lynn L. Martin There’s been a lot of talk on the web and by cable news people about several incidents that have turned sour after what appeared to be a routine traffic stop by police. Perhaps everyone needs to be educated or reminded on how to behave if you are pulled over. If you do your part right, it is very likely the police officer will do his/ her part right. Here’s an article by Jason Williamson, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union, printed with some modifications. Know Your Rights – and Stay Calm There are still a lot of questions to be answered about the arrest and death of Sandra Bland, who recently died tragically after three days in a Texas jail. A video released by the Texas Department of Public Safety captured a portion of the confrontation between Bland and a police officer after she was pulled over on July 10 for a routine traffic stop. If you’ve seen the dash cam video, perhaps most striking is how quickly the situation escalated, leading to the forcible arrest of Bland, and culminating in her untimely demise. It’s also a reminder of how important it is to know your legal rights, and what is and is not permissible when you are pulled over by a police officer. There’s the law – what is legally permissible for the police officer and the motorist to do. And then there’s the sad reality of how such encounters with the police sometimes play out in practice. Given that reality, there are some things to keep in mind in order to try to prevent
the situation from becoming contentious or dangerous. You might be nervous about what’s going to happen when you get pulled over, but remember that officers are the ones who have every right to be nervous. They never know what to expect. Generally, the more you do to help ensure the officer’s safety, the more you ensure your own. Roll down your driver’s side window and any tinted windows. If it is dark, turn on interior lights. Make all your movements slowly. The officer is watching you carefully to make sure you’re not drawing a weapon or hiding something. Do not reach for anything in the passenger compartment of your vehicle or under your seat. As the officer approaches, put your hands on the steering wheel where the officer can see them. It won’t hurt to take the keys out of the ignition and place them on the dash. This shows the officer that you don’t intend on driving off. With body-cameras being added to many law-enforcement agencies, it is likely your encounter is being recorded. It is smart for you to record the conversation also so your attorney will have a record of what was said. Simply hit audio-record on your cell phone and lay it on the dash with your keys. To be clear, as law-enforcement professionals, the police should be well-trained to de-escalate and diffuse interactions with the public whenever possible, particularly since most people don’t enjoy being pulled over, and especially in light of the already contentious relationship between the police and communities of color across the country. But here are some things for all of us to consider: 1. You have the right to remain silent. That is true whether you’ve just been temporarily detained or formally arrested. There are some instances, like during a traffic stop, where you must provide your license, registration, insurance and name, when asked. And there are some states where you are required to answer basic identifying questions (name and address) by the police. But you’re not required to give a statement beyond that. You can simply say, “I choose not to answer that question.”
2. You do not have to consent to a search of yourself or your car. There are many situations in which the police will pull someone over and ask – often casually – whether the driver would mind if they “take a look” inside the car. But you don’t have to give that permission. Keep in mind, however, that if the police have probable cause to search your car, or if you’ve been placed under arrest, they can search you, and sometimes your vehicle, whether you give your consent or not. 3. If you are arrested, you have the right to ask for an attorney and should do so immediately. If you have only been stopped temporarily, you’re not entitled to an attorney at that point. But if you’re being held for an extended period of time, either they’re going to have to let you go or place you under arrest. 4. If you’ve been stopped (but not arrested), you have the right to ask the police whether you’re free to go. If they say yes, you should calmly walk – not run – away from the scene. 5. As difficult as it can be, try to remain calm and be as polite as you can. Even if you think your rights have been violated, you’re not going to argue your way out of the problem. It’s also always a good idea to make sure the police can see your hands, and that you don’t make sudden movements, interfere with what the police are trying to do, or give false statements. In other words, don’t give the police an excuse to mistreat you or pile on additional charges. 6. Generally, the best advice is to pay close attention to the situation whenever you are interacting with a police officer. If you’ve had a negative experience, or believe that your constitutional rights have been compromised, you should take note of all of the circumstances surrounding the encounter, including the police officer’s name and badge number, and pursue a complaint afterwards. 7. Remain respectful toward the officer at all times, even when you refuse to consent to a search. Say something along the lines of “I’m sorry, officer, but I don’t consent to any searches.” You may be firm in asserting your rights, but being respectful about it goes a long way toward maintaining a calm, controlled attitude. It also helps “disarm” a dangerous situation if the officer’s initial attitude is hostile.

Interment will be in the Waynoka Municipal Cemetery under the direction of Marshall Funeral Home of Waynoka. JEANNINE ANN COHOE FULLERTON Jeannine Ann Cohoe Fullerton died July 27, 2015 in her beloved hometown of Kiowa, Kansas. Jeannine was born in Anthony, Kansas, on January 30, 1932, to Margaret (Dacy) and Melvin Cohoe, also residents of Kiowa. Jeannine was named after her daddy’s favorite song, “Jeannine, I Dream of Lilac Time.” Jeannine grew up in Kiowa, Kansas, and though Jeannine’s dad passed away when she was just beginning elementary school, her mother provided a loving and secure home. In high school she was the drum majorette, twirled a baton and led the marching band. When she
was in high school Jeannine met Bill Fullerton from Burlington, Oklahoma, at the Hardtner Pool. The introduction was made by her uncle Kansas Burgess. After dating a couple of years, Bill and Jeannine married on August 10, 1950. They were happily married until his death in 2012. The Fullerton’s had two daughters, Billie Jean (1953) and Bobbi Lea (1955) who were both born in Kiowa. The family moved to Tempe, Arizona in 1958 so Bill could take a position at Arizona State University.

Jeannine taught PE at McKemy and Gilliland junior high schools. Then later she became a first grade teacher at Rural School and a second grade teacher at Broadmor in Tempe, Arizona. When she retired from teaching in 1987, Jeannine and Bill returned to the family farm where she and Bill raised wheat and cattle. Jeannine loved to garden and learning how to make quilts and clothes for her granddaughters. Jeannine was preceded in death by her husband, Bill. She is survived by her two daughters, Billie Enz and husband, Don of Gilbert, Arizona and Bobbi Youtie and husband, David of San Diego, California.

Kiowa Hospital Board raises mill levy; doc recruitment; in the black Budget hearing Aug. 11, 8 a.m. By Yvonne Miller Kiowa’s hospital board discussed a variety of items from raising the mill levy in response to decreased Barber County valuation to searching for another doctor. This was at their July regular monthly meeting last Thursday evening that lasted two-and-a-half hours. An executive session lasted just over an hour at the end of the meeting to discuss nonelected personnel and contract/legal. The only action taken after that executive session was approval of the monthly risk management/quality assurance report. Kiowa District Hospital (KDH) President Pat Myers called the meeting to order with all members present, including Chantae Simpson, Brenna May, Jim Parker and Jeff Miller. Hospital CEO Margaret Grismer also sat at the board table. Other hospital personnel present were: CFO Janell Goodno, Manor Administrator Kim Balding, Dr. Christie Leal and Friends of the Hospital and Manor Foundation President Judy Schrock. Hospital Mill Levy Raised Due to Decreased Valuation CFO Goodno noted that estimated figures from Barber County Clerk Debbie Wesley show the county’s assessed
valuation has decreased around $50 million. In 2014 the county’s final assessed valuation was $170,731,069. This year the estimated assessed valuation is $124,625,314. Of course, the decrease is due to the declined oil and gas revenue since the oil boom is mostly over in this area. This decreases funds for all tax supported entities in Barber County, including KDH. The hospital’s valuation, which is used to prepare the 2016 budget, dropped from $78,522,040 to $46,732,674. Goodno presented the board with six options to set the mill levy for the 2016 budget. Working with BKD auditing firm, Goodno said they have budget assumptions which led to anticipating a 1.5 percent budgetary increase. This is based on numerous factors, some of which are definite like doctor recruitment expense and many other expenses and variables for the 2016 budget. In 2014 the mill levy was 14.30. Because of the decreased valuation, the hospital board had to consider the options to generate more revenue. Grismer reminded the board that Kansas refused to join Medicaid reform (ObamaCare). That means on Medicare cost reimbursement when KDH would get $1,000, they get two percent less. Goodno said that amounted to about $50,000 in 2014. Grismer said, “With the Affordable
Care Act we get less and less reimbursement every year.” Myers asked Goodno her opinion of the best option, which she said was one that would keep taxes the same. However, because of so many variables, another option was considered that would generate an additional $21,772 tax revenue. This Option No. 1 raises the mill levy to 26.248. Board members held a lengthy discussion on this issue. Miller, a farmer/ rancher said, “The bucket is only so deep. The price of wheat is terrible.” Parker said he “supports” the option that generates an additional $21,772, but “likes” the option where taxes do not increase. Myers said, “The people wanted a new hospital. It’s our job to keep it up. We have to have adequate funding.” May asked, “Do we risk rocking the boat for $21,000?” Simpson said, “We are only one entity in town who will be doing this.” Miller said, “No matter which option we pick, people are going to be mad.” Goodno said, “This little critical access hospital is never going to support itself.” After all the discussion, the board unanimously approved Option No. 1, which increases the 2016 mill levy to 26.248 and generates $1,226,662. That’s an increase of $21,772. The 2015 mill levy at 14.305 generated $1,204,890. The CFO explained one mill equals a penny per $1,000 of assessed value. That millage is used in a formula to determine

By Yvonne Miller As reported from the South Barber School Board’s regular July meeting, the Project Playground committee seeks a safety surface to put underneath equipment. Committee members Krista Pollock and Deb Hitchcock made a presentation to the board about the surface BounceBack. The bid from Deeds Enterprises LLC of Pratt for that surface was $94,000. The school board held a special meeting last Wednesday at 7:30 a.m. that lasted about 10 minutes. The board authorized Superintendent
Andi Williams to seek more bid requests for the surface. “We’ll go through the bid process,” she said. Pollock and Hitchcock attended the meeting of the South Barber Recreation Commission after their presentation at the regular school board meeting. The rec commission reportedly promised Project Playground the remainder of necessary funds to purchase a safety surface. However, the commission recommended the committee get more bids. Therefore, the school board tabled the issue until more bids are received.
Parenting Playground surface again discussed at South Barber through School Board meeting separation and divorce Divorcing parents are often faced with many new problems during this difficult time for the entire family. Although their marriage is ending, their role as parents continues through their lives. To help make this transition easier, Northwest Family Services Inc. staff member Nicole Martens, M.S., LPC will be teaching their Parenting Through Separation and Divorce class Monday night, Aug. 17. The class will be in Fairview from 6-9 p.m., Northwest Technology Center southwest of Fairview. To enroll and for cost of class please call 580-744-1248 or e-mail info@northwesfamily.net. Participants must pre-enroll; the class will be cancelled if there is inadequate preenrollment. This class was designed at the request of the courts to help divorcing couples understand the problems their children may experience during and after a divorce or separation. It will fulfill the court order for all divorcing parents. In the class, parents will learn how to effectively communicate with their children and with their former spouse. They will practice reflective listening skills and will study various active communication techniques and nonverbal communications. They will also practice workable negotiation styles for dealing with conflict and rules for effective expressions. Recognizing and avoiding Pain Games is another topic of consideration. Parents will learn to recognize and cease games like I-Spy, Set-up, and Wishbone, which are likely to hurt the children. Class members will also discuss various options for parenting, such as joint custody and mediation.

Lawsuit Township 31 South, Range 11 West. The Rose Rock pipeline will cross the Hummon lines in two known locations in Sections 35 and 36. Rose Rock has obtained consensual right of ways and easements from landowners along the route of the pipeline including the owners of Sections 35 and 36. According to attorneys for Rose Rock, the company intends to bore under any foreign lines it crosses within the Hummon system, including the two known Hummon lines, with a minimum of three feet of separation between the lines. Rose Rock states construction of the pipeline should not interfere with Hummon’s rights granted under its oil and gas leases. Rose Rock alleges Hummon is unable to provide them with an accurate map identifying the location of all of its buried lines. Locating the lines with standard technology is not possible because the buried lines are plastic PVC without a locating wire. Rose Rock said they intend to use ground penetrating radar (GPR) to locate Hummon lines between the known Hummon line at Thistle Road on the south and the known Hummon line just east of the Chapin 4-36 well to the north. Hummon has filed suit against Rose Rock, apparently not satisfied with Rose Rock’s precautionary efforts. Their petition sets forth two causes: trespass and conversion, and temporary and permanent injunction. Hummon has also applied for a restraining order seeking to prevent Rose Rock from entering the land where Hummon’s lines are located, despite Rose Rock’s permission obtained from landowners. Rose Rock is represented by Fleeson, Gooing, Coulson & Kitch, LLC of Wichita, Kansas. Hummon is represented by Glaves, Irby & Rhoads, also of Wichita.

Kiowa
the amount of taxes a property owner pays. She provided an example of a home in Kiowa with an appraised value of $80,000. Take $80,000 X the county assessed rate (which is 11.5 percent for residential value). This equals 9200 X (.001) and it equals a 9.2 mill value. Take that 9.2 mill value X the mill levy and that equals what tax is owed by the homeowner. With the just-approved 26.248 mill levy, taxes on that $80,000 home will be about $240. That’s an increase of about $100 from last year, Goodno said. Professional Hired to Search for New Doctor The board discussed at length the most economical way to search for a new doctor as Dr. Paul Wilhelm finishes his employment at KDH by early December. Myers asked Grismer how much time she and her staff had to devote to the search. “I am not a professional head hunter, but I can do my best,” Grismer said. She mentioned numerous websites designed for doctor searches. The board considered numerous options. Then Myers said, “My experience is to not cut corners. You end up spending more in the end.” Dr. Leal was recruited to Kiowa using Arthur/Marshall physician recruiting firm. Both she and KDH officials were pleased. The board decided to again pursue an agreement with Arthur/Marshall. Board members held an executive session per phone call Monday evening to work out details. Parker, secretary of the board, said that following that executive session, they authorized Grismer to get started with Arthur/Marshall at an initial amount of $2500 ($650 initial fee and $1850 for the first month). At the next regular
meeting the board will discuss having Arthur/Marshall do more, he said. Hospital Statistics and Financials Goodno said in June the hospital had 47 total days of acute and swingbed care which is about 20 days more than in May. There were 566 total outpatient visits. Clinic visits totaled 358. By the end of June, the clinic had 2331 visits year-todate (YTD). For June the the hospital was in the black $54,968. YTD the hospital’s gain is $571,453. The hospital’s total operating revenue was $335,252. Total operating expenses were $381,013. This made a net loss from operations. But, $100,729 mainly tax support made the profitable status of $54,968. Manor Financials and Revitalization Giving the manor’s financials, Goodno said, “Good job on having zero agency!” The manor paid no agency nursing as they are now fully staffed. For June the manor had total operating revenue of $96,960. Their operating expenses were $123,341 for a loss of net from operations of $26,380. The addition of $5,238 mainly tax revenue the manor’s loss was curbed to $21,143.Together the hospital and manor were in the black $429,234 at the end of June. The manor had a patient census of 18 in June. Balding said they have a few possible admits and continue to offer Respite Care. The manor van is in bad shape and the lift doesn’t work well enough to use. Grismer said of the dilipidated van, “It’s at the screaming, red light level.” Myers said he will get bids for a replacement van and the board can have a conference call if needed. The manor’s revitalization is nearly complete and Balding said they’ll
announce an open house. Other Kiowa Hospital Board Business Discussing hospital and manor uncollectibles, the board approved $9,589 to be turned over to a collection agency. Grismer said pharmacist John Hagood continues to help KDH while they search for someone to fill an in-house pharmacy contract. Grismer said she has someone in mind. Although the old hospital building was deeded over to Project Pink, Grismer said hospital officials are still discussing moving the generator to the new facility. Board president signed the updated code of conduct policy. Board members receive emergency preparedness badges to immediately respond to an emergency in the state of Kansas. South Barber FFA Advisor Kyle Jacobs offered the labor of the FFA Chapter to help with landscaping at the new hospital. Presenting the KDH employee handbook to the board, Grismer said two items that are “very controversial” regard hoop earrings and tatoos. She also said, “I personally believe we need to put time into an employee vaccination program,” adding that Hepatitis A shots are required some places. Another issue is direct deposit of paychecks. All but 10 of 84 checks are directly deposited while about 10 employees request an actual check in hand. The board wants time to review the handbook so tabled the item. The board declared the old hospital house property at 811 Miller as obsolete to the district. The house was demolished and a garage remains. The board will accept sealed bids on the property. In her CEO report, Grismer said there was an accident with someone damaging the hookup for the mobile MRI machine at a cost of $1350. She said the unnamed person did not come forward and didn’t admit to it until confronted. The CEO asked if the board wanted to charge the person with criminal damage. She said that person has no insurance and no driver’s license. Myers suggests a board member speak to that person before any action is taken. The KDH tax budget public hearing is set for Tuesday, Aug. 11, at 8 a.m. The next regular meeting of the board is Thursday, Aug. 20, at 7 p.m.
