Klinefelter Park recently received a makeover earlier this month by way of a prescribed burn. The city of St. Joseph hired a company to burn off the holding ponds at the park, which is located south of Dale Street E. and west of 12th Avenue, according to Fire Chief Jeff Taufen. “With plants like wildflowers or grass, it’s a good deal to try and burn off every two to three years to produce more growth,” Taufen said. The St. Joseph Fire Department consists of 30 volunteers who operate out of one fire station. “We were going to do it
as a training burn,” Taufen said. “But unfortunately with volunteers, we don’t have the flexibility with time and weather and everything to do something like that. We ran out of time, so the city hired somebody else (to do the burn).” Klinefelter Park’s amenities include playground equipment, portable restrooms, benches, a bituminous trail, a memorial monument, two pedestrian bridges, and picnic tables/ shelter. “We were out there (at the burn),” Taufen said. “Nobody needed to be evacuated. It was just a small little prairie burn to burn off the mowed grass.” See photos at right.
Cold Spring victim files civil suit against Heinrich in Wetterling case by Dennis Dalman editor@thenewsleaders.com
A former Cold Spring-area resident has filed a lawsuit against D a n n y Heinrich, the man now Heinrich in custody and preparing to stand trial for possessing
child pornography. Heinrich is also considered by law enforcement as a “person of interest” in the case of Jacob Wetterling, the St. Joseph boy abducted in 1989 when he was 11 years old and never heard from since. In the lawsuit, Jared Scheierl, now 39, accuses Heinrich of sexual battery and false imprisonment in an incident that occurred in and Suit • page 3
Police chief says sex trafficking is not just big-city problem by Frank Lee operations@thenewsleaders.com
Sex trafficking is not just a big-city problem, according to St. Joseph Police Chief Joel Klein, but everyone’s problem, including St. Joseph. During the May 16 St. Joseph City Council meeting, Klein talked about having the “necessary tools” for attorneys to prosecute such activities and the need for area cities to adopt similar ordinances. “For those who don’t think it’s here, it is here,” Klein said
about human trafficking. The ordinance Klein suggested the council adopt is the same o r d i n a n c e Klein a l r e a d y adopted by Waite Park and includes identifying an area where sexually-oriented businesses would be allowed. Most cities use an industrial area to define where some Chief • page 5

Williams offered county administrator position
The Stearns County Board of Commissioners directed county staff to offer the county administrator position to Mike Williams, who is currently the St. Cloud city administrator. Williams has 30 years of combined administration experience. He worked for the city of St. Cloud for the last 13 years; he previously held positions in the city of Brookings, S.D.; Becker County, Minn.; the City of Perry, Iowa; and in the town of Easton, Maine. Williams
has a doctorate in public policy and administration and a master’s in public administration. The board directed staff to enter into discussions with Williams to negotiate his employment terms and conditions.

Suit from front page near Cold Spring on Jan. 13, 1989. Scheierl, who was 12 years old at the time, alleges Heinrich forced him into his car in Cold Spring, then drove to a rural area where Heinrich allegedly sexually assaulted him, telling him he had a gun and would use it if he had to. The incident involving Scheierl is one of several that took place in Cold Spring and Paynesville at about the same time frame in 1989, the same year that Wetterling was abducted on a rural road leading to his St. Joseph home. Wetterling was abducted 10 months after the alleged as-
St. Joseph Newsleader • www.thenewsleaders.com sault against Scheierl. Heinrich was arrested last summer at his home in Annandale and charged with several counts relating to possession of child pornography. He is set to go to trial in July. When Heinrich was arrested, law enforcement searched his Annandale home and discovered tapes and photos depicting young boys and pornographic subject matter and also recovered a sweatshirt containing something that testing later revealed as a DNA match to the 1989 assault against Scheierl. Heinrich cannot be criminally prosecuted, however, for the alleged incident because the statute of limitations has expired. But Scheierl was allowed to bring a
civil lawsuit against Heinrich because of the Minnesota Child Victim Act, due to expire at the end of this month. Scheierl is asking for $50,000 in his lawsuit. He said he does not expect to collect any money but that in filing the lawsuit he, as a parent, understands the sense of “loss” he felt in the years following that assault and wants to bring some semblance of justice to those who feel similar pain and loss. Scheierl and the Wetterling family have become friends. Heinrich is charged with 25 counts of child pornography. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges. If convicted, he could be sentenced to prison for the rest of his life. He remains in custody in the Sherburne County Jail.

Dollars for Scholars awards 30 scholarships by Frank Lee operations@thenewsleaders.com
The St. Joseph Area Dollars for Scholars chapter recently awarded scholarships of $250 each to 30 local high school students who intend to continue their education at a college or university. All funds for the scholarships, which total $7,500, were raised through contributions by area businesses and industry, individuals and an annual phone-a-thon. “It’s to provide scholarships for young people pursuing higher education,” said Doug Danielson, chapter treasurer and emcee of the May 4 awards banquet at the St. Joseph Community Fire Hall. The nonprofit foundation is part of a national network of locally-based, volunteer-driven Dollars for Scholars chapters that help hometown students by raising scholarship funds, establishing endowments, providing assistance with college readiness and the financial-aid process. To be eligible for the St. Joseph Area Dollars for Scholars scholarship, you must meet one of the following criteria:
You or your parent/guardian must live in the St. Joseph Fire District, be active in a St. Joseph civic organization or be employed in St. Joseph. “The need, obviously, for supporting our students is greater with the increase in the cost of education, so this is a good way to support our local students,” Danielson said. Last year, 25 students were awarded scholarships of $250 for post-secondary education for a total of $6,250. The St. Joseph chapter was established in 1996, and since then more than 560 scholarships have been awarded, totaling more than $140,000 to help local students.

Chief from front page kinds of sexually-oriented businesses would be allowed, and St. Joseph follows suit. According to Klein, however, the closure of Motel 6 in Waite Park has led to some undesirable activity of a sexual nature to relocate to St. Joseph. “Maybe the volume out here might not be as great as it is in St. Cloud or Waite Park, but we definitely do have a problem,” said Klein, who has been working with other area cities’ police chiefs from Sartell, Sauk Rapids, Waite Park and St. Cloud to tackle sex trafficking locally. The ordinance defines “sexually-oriented businesses” to include adult arcades, adult bookstores, novelty stores and video stores, adult cabarets and adult theaters, just to name a few examples. The council ended up adopting the ordinance pro-
5 posed by Klein that included amending the related fee schedule: $2,000 for a background check, $750 for an annual license and $75 annually per employee for sexually-oriented businesses. “It gives some extra teeth and another tool in the toolbox for them (law-enforcement officials) to use when dealing with human trafficking,” Klein said of the ordinance that was adopted unanimously. The purpose and intent of the sexually-oriented business regulations in the ordinance is “to preserve the quality and vitality of neighborhoods . . . restrain increased criminal activity and slow the spread of sexually-transmitted diseases.” “The idea behind all the metro cities of adopting the same ordinance is not that we are pushing the problem to one city or to the next city but to unite together, so we have the same ordinance to enforce,” Klein said.

Newsleader apologizes; Scarbro drops column A column by guest-writer Ron Scarbro published in the May 6 St. Joseph Newsleader and Sauk RapidsRice Newsleader brought anger and even outrage from some readers. The column did not appear in the Sartell Newsleader. We at the Newsleaders admit those responses are justified. Scarbro, a former Sartell resident, moved several years ago to Georgia. For more than 10 years he has been a guest columnist for the Newsleader newspapers. Often, he writes political columns from a rightof-center perspective, just as editor-columnist Dennis Dalman writes ones usually from a left-of-center point of view. Both columnists have long received plenty of flak from readers for their opinions. Scarbro often uses acidic satire, exaggerations and metaphors in his columns, as does Dalman and many other columnists coast-to-coast. In the column that caused angry responses, Scarbro compared presidential candidates Sanders, Clinton and Trump to pest-control businesses and then wrote satirically about how each pest-control business would handle illegal immigration. When Newsleader Editor Dennis Dalman first read the submission, his reaction was he didn’t at all agree with its points. His other simultaneous reaction was that words like “vermin and pests” are inflammatory and even hateful, but since Scarbro seemed to be directing those terms at dangerous undocumented border-crossers like murderers, rapists and drug-cartel dealers, such words did not seem too extreme. Once the column was published and readers expressed their disgust, Dalman re-read Scarbro’s column in the mind-frame of a reader who had never read Scarbro’s satirical writings before. The readers were right. Scarbro’s column does not sufficiently spell out that he was referring only to dangerous and violent criminals. The vitriolic words at least seem to be aimed categorically at all undocumented immigrants, even if that is not what Scarbro meant. We are confident Scarbro did not intend to tar all immigrants with the same brush. However, that doesn’t change its effect upon readers. Dalman regrets giving the go-ahead to publish that column, and he, the newspaper owner and the staff would like to apologize to anybody and everybody who was offended, hurt or outraged by it. This newspaper has long championed the cause of law-abiding, hard-working immigrants, even undocumented ones, who are trying so hard to improve their lot in life, and we also strongly favor an immigration-reform bill that will allow undocumented workers to emerge from the shadows and begin a process that could someday lead to citizenship. We have given Scarbro the opportunity to specify more clearly exactly what he meant to express in his column – that is, which immigrants he was castigating. We expect Scarbro to clarify his intent and/or to apologize for what comes across – intentionally or not – as hateful stereotyping. After being contacted by the Newsleader via email last week, Scarbro wrote back that he did not mean to cause any ill will, that he apologizes and that he will no longer write columns for the newspapers.

Opinion We ditched Mickey-Mantle Dickie Every early summer, my thoughts often turn to watermelon, the St. Cloud Municipal Swimming Pool, the St. Cloud Library, the cabins at Beaver Lake near Luxemburg, Barden Park, marbles and baseball cards. Those things more or less define, at least in memory, my happy summers in the 1950s. We kids would gorge on watermelon, spitting seeds all over the lawn; we loved to spend afternoons at the swimming pool until our eyes were devilred, our skin wrinkly; we died and went to heaven when we got to stay a week every June with our good neighbors the Fahnhorsts in the cabins by Beaver Lake; we’d spend Sundays playing Cowboys and Indians in Barden Park, a block from our house; we loved to go to the library to get arm-loads of books; we’d spend mornings playing marbles in the alley as the sun rose ever higher and the soothing sounds of mourning doves around us; and we loved to sit on the lawn to trade baseball cards with neighbor buddies. Using our stashes of nickels and dimes, we’d buy stacks of baseball cards at Hackert’s Grocery. As we unwrapped the card packets, we’d stuff the wafers of gum into our mouths and chew like sugar fiends until we were gopher-cheeked and drooling. The other day, while sitting on my deck, I heard two teenaged girls walking by on the street complaining about a friend. “Let’s ditch her,” one said to the other. “If she comes over, let’s just pretend we’re not home.” I was surprised to hear that expression – “ditch her.” I thought it was obsolete among kids these days. Then I smiled
Dennis Dalman Editor because it instantly unlocked a distant summer day – the day of Dickie and the Mickey Mantle card. On a summer day in 1958, brother Michael and I were sitting in our backyard looking through our big box of baseball cards. Just then neighbor Dickie ran across the lawn so excited he kept stuttering, stumbling over his words. “I-I-I got ‘im!” he said wild-eyed, chewing a big wad of gum. “I got ‘im!” “Got who?” we asked. “Mickey Mantle! I just got baseball cards at Hackert’s,” he said, pulling a card out of his shirt pocket. “Look! It’s a Mickey Mantle.” I grabbed the card. Sure as shoot, it was a Mickey Mantle baseball card, still a bit dusty with sugar powder and smelling of the bubble-gum piece that came with it. I cringed with instant envy, then turned green with slow-burn jealousy. In the 1950s, any kid would have gladly toiled a whole summer doing rotten house chores with no allowance if he could only get a Mickey Mantle. Getting a Mickey then, so rare, was akin to winning a $10,000 scratch-off ticket now. I handed the card back to Dickie as I desperately feigned an attitude of “So what? Who cares?” “I’ll be right back,” he said, still giddy. “I gotta go show the Townsend twins. When I come back, we’ll trade cards,
OK?” He ran off. “He thinks he’s so hot,” I scoffed. “Yeah, what cruddy luck he got a Mickey Mantle and we never get one,” Michael said. “Well, I got a Roger Maris and two Hank Aarons,” I bragged. “If you ask me, that’s just as good – even better – than one Mickey Mantle.” “Yeah, now just watch, Dickie’s gonna go around bragging all day,” Michael said. “I know. That’s why we should ditch ‘im.” “Yeah, let’s!” he agreed, grinning. “Let’s ditch ‘im.” For two days, we ditched Dickie. He’d pop over, and brother Johnny, per our orders, would tell him Michael and Denny aren’t home. From our upper bedroom windows, we’d watch Dickie leave our front steps and go home. “Serves ‘im right,” I said. “I bet he already put that stupid card in a frame.” We caved in and let Dickie be our friend again; we un-ditched him. We tried to wheedle the Mickey card off of him with card-trade offers and candy money. No go. A couple years later, Michael and I got to go see the New York Yankees play in Minneapolis. There in front of our eyes was our hero, Mickey Mantle, playing ball, as if his baseball card had come to life. We couldn’t wait to get home to brag to Dickie we saw the real Mickey Mantle. When we did, he dismissed our gloating bragging with, “Yeah, well, there’s lots of other players better than him, y’know.” Michael and I moped all the way back home. We felt as if we’d just been ditched.
Goodbye from Ron Scarbro to the Newsleaders Ron Scarbro, St. Simons Island, Ga. For the past 10 years, it has been my good pleasure to submit and have columns published in your newspaper. It has been fun. Throughout the years, I have developed a constituency throughout the Newsleaders service area. I know because I regularly hear from people I don’t even know. I am certain the Newsleader publisher has published columns she had to hold her nose to do. That’s one of my
Ron Scarbro Guest Writer favorite things about her. She has shown courage. It’s not now nor has it ever been my idea to harm the Newsleaders. I always wanted the best for the paper and for the publisher and her staff. Because I want the best for the Newsleaders,
I have decided to stop sending columns for publishing. Perhaps when the smoke settles, I may be able to generate some words that will be worthy of printing but for now, I am going to stay quiet. My not sending columns in no way ends my warm feelings for the Newsleaders and its staff. I hope we can continue to be friends and someday down the road if the time is right, I may send along some thoughts. My wife and I send our best wishes for the Newsleaders’ continued success.
Letters to the editor
Scarbro’s language in column reflects hate
Ron Scarbro’s May 6 opinion piece, “Pest control includes BS, HYPE and DONALD’S,” makes the kind of argument racist leaders and regimes often make to stir up hatred against whole groups of people. The Nazis roused hatred against the Jews by calling them rats; more recently, the Hutus in Rwanda called the Tutsis cockroaches who needed to be exterminated. Scarbro is doing exactly the same thing in saying immigrants to the United States are “pests and vermin,” “crit-
ters,” “another species” that should go back to the mountains and trees “as nature intended.” If we don’t get rid of them, he says, they will gnaw at the foundation of our country and bring it crashing down. If the foundation of our country is racism, hatred and greed, he may be right. But like most people, I believe the foundation is respect for all people, generosity and a desire to share our freedoms and blessings with others. That’s the foundation Scarbro’s proposals, borrowed wholesale from Donald Trump and put forth without a shred of evi-

dence, will surely damage. Scarbro has the right, guaranteed by this country he claims to love, to hold and express this view, despicable as it is. But the Newsleader has no obligation to print his views and spread them abroad. We certainly need reasoned, vigorous political debate to counter the lows this presidential campaign has already reached. But this article is not reasoned debate; nor is it funny. It’s racist, anti-immigrant propaganda. I’m very disappointed the editorial staff of the Newsleader chose to publish it.
Thank you to participants of Poppy Month American Legion Auxiliary Poppy Program. With their assistance, there is much we can do to bring a little extra happiness in the lives of our hospitalized veterans.
