Man sentenced for distributing drugs in Teays Valley STAFF REPORT TEAYS VALLEY – A Detroit man has been sentenced to three years and 10 months in federal prison for conspiracy to distribute oxycodone in Teays Valley. Devon Patterson, 27, of Detroit, previously pleaded guilty in April. He was sentenced Monday, July 30. Patterson admitted that between July 2009 and early October 2009, he illegally brought quantities of oxycodone from Detroit to a residence in Teays Valley. Patterson further admitted that once he arrived at the Teays Valley residence, the oxycodone pills were illegally sold. The defendant also admitted that the proceeds from the oxycodone sales were subsequently sent back to Detroit by using a money transfer service. This case was prosecuted as part of an ongoing effort led by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of West Virginia to combat the illicit sale and misuse of prescription drugs. The Metropolitan Drug Enforcement Network Team (MDENT) conducted the investigation. Assistant United States Attorney John Frail handled the prosecution. United States District Judge Robert C. Chambers presided over the sentencing.

Church ‘invades’ county for good cause TEAYS VALLEY -- A couple hundred members of the Teays Valley Church of God in Scott Depot participated in “CSI Weekend” this past weekend, July 2628. “CSI” stands for Community Service Invasion. The goal of the weekend was simply community service with no strings attached. Church members worked for weeks to prepare by bringing in donations of items to be given away during the three-day event. Two neighborhoods received boxes of food. On the heels of recent power outages where many lost all of their food, recipients were very grateful. A free block party was thrown for one neighborhood, complete with hot dogs, sides, and rounds of corn hole. Broadmore Assisted Living facility was given a facelift when several members trimmed bushes, pulled weeds and beautified the courtyard for residents to enjoy. One of the teams cleaned the Putnam County library and gave
Members of the Teays Valley Church of God fanned out throughout Putnam County last weekend performing a variety of community service projects, including handing out free bottled water and snacks to travelers who stopped at the Interstate 64 rest stop. Courtesy photo gifts to the employees and volunteers. Single moms were the recipients of free haircuts, pedicures,
manicures, and make-up makeovers. People pulling into Speedway in Scott Depot received car air
fresheners and were given free window washes. SEE CHURCH ON PAGE 3
State lawmakers discuss prison overcrowding By Tom Miller PressNet Reporter
CHARLESTON -- Overcrowded conditions in West Virginia's prisons is part of this nation's most difficult social and economic problem since slavery, a Charleston minister told a legislative study committee during a hearing here last week.
"Basically, it's the tip of the iceberg," the Rev. Matthew Watts, senior pastor at Grace Bible Church, told members of the Select Committee on Minority Affairs. "It's the hanging thread from the proverbial cheap sweater." Watts said even though America onlymakes up five percent of the global population, it has 25
percent of the prison inmates in the world. He also claimed that blacks and Latinos constitute a disproportionate share of these inmates. "If we were to incarcerate lowincome white people at the same rate of blacks, we could not build prisons to jail all of them," he said. Meanwhile, a subcommittee
composed of members of both the House and Senate Finance committees began deliberations last week on whether or not the Legislature currently is receiving sufficient impartial information needed to adequately consider the effect any proposed new legislation would have on jobs and SEE LAWMAKERS ON PAGE 3

Members of the Teays Valley Church of God trimmed bushes and pulled weeds at Broadmore Assisted Living (top left), and also helped clean the Putnam County LIbrary (top right) as part of the Church’s Community Service Invasion last weekend. Courtesy photos CHURCH FROM PAGE 1 Travelers stopping at the rest stops on I-64 between Hurricane and Teays Valley were given bottled water and snacks. Hundreds of people were fed lunch at the Farmer’s Market and Spray park at Hurricane City Park. Eighty lunches were delivered
to the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office and EMS offices. Residents of Regency Place enjoyed an all facilities birthday party complete with cupcakes and gift bags. The staff of CAMC Teays Valley Hospital received bags of goodies including note pads, pens,

to have as many opportunities as possible to do so.” Teays Valley Church of God is a non-denominational church committed to connecting the community to Christ’s love. For more information about the church, visit their website: www.tvcog.org.
legal fireworks." But he said his agency is "vehemently opposed" to the idea of legalizing the sale of Class C fireworks in this state. However, retired Dow Chemical engineer Cliff Rotz spoke in support of HB4102 that would have allowed more potent fireworks to be sold in West Virginia. The proposed bill at the 2011 regular session was endorsed by the House Government Organization Committee but then died in the House Judiciary Committee. A legislative audit presented to a joint House-Senate committee meeting last Wednesday indicated that mine regulators are not reaching their goals for timely inspections and permits. But Director Thomas Clarke, director of the Division of Mining and Reclamation,said increased scrutiny from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency sincePresident Obama took office in 2009 is chiefly to blame. Legislative auditors also cited agency staffing as part of the problem. Vacancies in the 64-position permitting unit averaged
14 percent between 2008 and 2011 with a total of 14 staffers quitting their jobs. In other legislative hearings here last week, lawmakers learned that 14 people were tested in a new mandatory drug screening for anyone seeking job training in WorkForce West Virginia during the first week of the new program, interim director Russell Fry told members of the Legislative Oversight Commission on Workforce Investment last Monday. Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin set up the drug screening program by executive order on April 24, claiming that the state is mired in a drug abuse crisis that is damaging this state's economy. Tomblin also announced last
week that he is abandoning an announced plan to freeze new admission to the state's program that helps low-income families pay for day-care. The Department of Health and Human Resources announced plans in late June to cut $8 million from the program that currently helps pay the cost of day care for 24,000 children of mostly low-income single mothers. "Because this program is important to thousands of West Virginia working families, I have lifted thefreeze on the childcare subsidy program--allowing qualified families to enter this program," Tomblin said. The next round of legislative interim committee meetings is scheduled for Aug. 13-15.
LAWMAKERS FROM PAGE 1 thestate economy. Under the current system, the only information is a "fiscal note" that is usually prepared by state agencies that are affected by the proposed new law. And that note usually is favorable if the agency likes the bill and unfavorable if the agency doesn't like the legislation. Sen. Erik Wells, D-Kanawha, is among the growing number of legislators who believes lawmakers should create their own independent fiscal analysis office. Currently, according to Sen. Wells, the Legislature is "nowhere near a co-equal branch of government." In response to a question from Sen. Orphy Klempa, D-Ohio, interim director Russell Fry said it is too early to provide any passfail statistics to legislators. Meanwhile, at another legislative interim committee session last Monday, Chief Deputy Anthony Carrico of the state fire marshal's office told a joint judiciary committee panel that it is "more or less impossible to enforce the current state laws on il-

SBA disaster assistance available to local non-profit groups CHARLESTON -- The U.S. Small Business Administration has announced that certain Private Non-Profit Organizations (PNPs) in Putnam County that do not provide critical services of a governmental nature may be eligible to apply for low interest rate disaster loans. These loans are available as a result of a Presidential disaster declaration for Public Assistance resulting from damages caused by severe storms and wind that occurred on June 29 through July 1, 2012.
Examples of eligible non-critical PNP organizations include, but are not limited to, food kitchens, homeless shelters, museums, libraries, community centers, schools and colleges. The information will be used to submit a Request for Public Assistance which FEMA uses to determine if the PNP provides an essential governmental service and meets the definition of a "critical facility." Based upon that conclusion, FEMA may provide the PNP with a Public Assistance reimbursement grant for their el-
igible costs or refer the PNP to SBA for disaster loan assistance. PNP organizations may borrow up to $2 million to repair or replace damaged or destroyed real estate, machinery and equipment, inventory and other business assets. The SBA may increase a loan up to 20 percent of the total amount of disaster damage to real estate and/or leasehold improvements, as verified by SBA, to make improvements that lessen the risk of property damage by future disasters of the same kind.
The SBA also offers Economic Injury Disaster Loans to PNP organizations of all sizes to help meet working capital needs, such as ongoing operating expenses. Economic Injury Disaster Loan assistance is available regardless of whether the organization suffered any property damage. Applicants may apply online using the Electronic Loan Application (ELA) via SBA's secure website at https://disasterloan.sba.gov/ela Disaster loan information and application forms may also be
obtained by calling the SBA's Customer Service Center at 800659-2955 (800-877-8339 for the deaf and hard-of-hearing) or by sending an email to disastercustomerservice@sba.gov. Loan applications can be downloaded from www.sba.gov . Completed applications should be mailed to: U.S. Small Business Administration, Processing and Disbursement Center, 14925 Kingsport Road, Fort Worth, TX 76155. The filing deadline to return applications for physical property damage is Sept. 21, 2012.
