CHILD PORN ARREST
By Devin Leith-Yessian and Lauren Sellew Record-Journal staff
Kyle Fasold, 49, of 109 Northwest Drive, was charged Friday, March 6 with production and attempted production of child pornography, and possession of child pornography, according to a statement
Evidence gathered showed Fasold “had been secretly recording young girls getting undressed at his home and in the women’s locker room at Plainville High School,” Plainville Police Lt. Nicholas Mullins said in a release. Federal investigators believe the recordings at the school began in May 2018 and involved current and past members of the Plainville Blue Dolphins swim team.
“Our end goal … is to make sure we’re working towards healthy outcomes for (the) children,” said Plainville Police Chief Matthew Catania. “ … We think that communication and being upfront with parents is key to that outcome.” Catania informed parents that the identification of the girls in the videos and photos will be limited to the department’s two female officers, which includes the school resource officer at Plainville High School. Once a girl has been positively
CHESHIRE — About 500 student-athletes, coaches and supporters from all over the state gathered together last week to make their voices heard at the CIAC office in Cheshire. The Wednesday, March 11 protest came came almost 24 hours after the CIAC announced that the remainder of the winter championship tournaments were cancelled due to concerns over the coronavirus COVID-19.
The high school athletes held up signs, like “Let us Play” or “Live Stream the Game.”
sion and wanted to finish the season, even if it’s in empty gyms with no spectators.
Word of the protest was spread on social media, calling students to meet at the CIAC’s Cheshire headquarters at 10 a.m. Many athletes arrived before 10.
“We just want to play in the tournament we worked so hard to get into,” Sheehan girls basketball senior captain Maddi Larkin said. “We don’t care how it goes, what day it’s on or if there are any spectators. I don’t think anyone here cares. We just want to play the games.”
The demonstration lasted about three hours. There were chants and cheering. The students made their message clear. They felt cheated by the CIAC’s deci-

Becoming a new parent is a life changing experience and caring for a child is an awesome responsibility as well as a joy. This is also the time to think about your child’s future by asking an important question: who will care for your child if you become disabled or die? The best way to put your mind at ease is by having an estate plan. The most basic estate planning tool is a will, which enables a person to determine how his or her assets will be distributed after death. Without this important estate planning tool, the state’s intestacy laws will govern how these assets will be distributed. In addition, decisions about who will care for any minor children will be made by the court. For this reason, it is crucial for new parents to have a will as this is the only way to name guardians for minor children. In this regard, selecting guardians involves several important considerations. Obviously, it is important to name individuals who are emotionally and financially capable of raising a child. At the same time, a will can also establish a trust that provides funds to be used to provide for the child’s needs. Ultimately, guardians should share the same moral and spiritual values, and childrearing philosophy of the parents. In addition to naming guardians in a will, it is also critical to plan for the possibility of incapacity by creating powers of attorney and advance medical directives. A durable power of attorney allows a new parent to name a spouse, or other trusted relative or friend, to handle personal and financial affairs. Further, a power of attorney for healthcare, or healthcare proxy, designates a trusted person to make medical decisions in accordance with the parent’s preferences.
In the end, having a child is a time of joy, but also one that requires careful planning. The best way to protect your family is by consulting with an experienced estate planning attorney who can help you navigate the process.

Why New Parents Need an Estate Plan
Finally, new parents should also obtain adequate life insurance to protect the family. The proceeds from an insurance policy can replace lost income, pay household and living expenses, as well as any debts that may have been owed by the deceased parent. It is also important to ensure that beneficiary designations on any retirement accounts are up to date so that these assets can be transferred expediently.

Stop & Shop will reserve the right to ask customers to leave if they are not a member of this age group. “Stop & Shop is continuing to maintain high levels of hygiene and sanitation in its stores and online operations.

Then they have tumbling classes, conditioning and technique classes throughout the summer. When football season begins, the team has practice four days a week. Then, when football season is over, competition preparation begins. It’s a tough schedule, and morale goes up and down. “It’s a long season. Sometimes you need to be a coach, a mother, a therapist, a friend.” Fitzpatrick said. “They are all capable, but when morale is down, it shows in their performance.” And as the PHS cheerleaders discovered this winter, being a defending state champion brings added pressure. “It’s harder to be a champion than to become a champion,” said Wren.

Connecticut joins NY, NJ in ordering business closures By Dave Collins and Susan Haigh Associated Press
close beginning Tuesday.
HARTFORD — Connecticut officials on Monday ordered movie theaters, gyms and other businesses closed until further notice, joining with New York and New Jersey in announcing restrictions aimed at curbing the spread of the coronavirus. Many businesses were ordered to close as of 8 p.m. Monday, and bars and restaurants were limited to offering only takeout. Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont also urged the Foxwoods Resort Casino and Mohegan Sun to close. Essential businesses such as supermarkets and gas stations will be able to stay open. “We are in this together,” Lamont said during a conference call with the governors of New York and New Jersey. ”This is changing so fast. We’ve got to work together on a coordinated basis.” Public gatherings of more than 50 people were restricted, in line with guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Lamont on Sunday ordered all public schools in the state to
For most people, the virus causes only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, COVID-19, the illness caused by the virus, can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia, or death. The vast majority of people recover. TRIBAL CASINOS Lamont acknowledged Monday there are “legal and jurisdictional issues” concerning whether the Mashantucket Pequot and Mohegan tribes will agree to his call to close Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort Casino in southeastern Connecticut. The tribes’ casinos are on reservations that are considered sovereign nations. “We are urging the tribes in the strongest possible way, they ought to be closing down those casinos,” Lamont said. Messages were left seeking comment with representatives of both tribal casinos. Lamont also urged the state’s off-track betting facil-

The operator of off-track betting sites in the state, Sportech, announced Sunday that the facilities will close at least until the end of the month beginning at 5 p.m. Monday, but said telephone betting and its online site will remain open. On Saturday, business was slow at Mohegan Sun, where Chubby Checker was performing at the casino’s Wolf Den venue — the last show before a string of recently announced cancellations takes effect. Many seats were empty at the concert. The number of people in restaurants and on the gambling floor was also spare. Lamont said he is working with Cuomo on the casinos issue. New York also has tribal casinos. “They’ve been good legal partners for us for quite some time. But there are legal and jurisdictional issues there,” Lamont said of the tribes, with whom he’s been unable to reach an agreement with on legalized sports betting. “I hope and think they’ll be doing the right thing and we’re going to come up with a unified voice.”
RESTAURANT OWNERS RESPOND Restaurant owners said they already have been taking action in response to the coronavirus, including increasing cleaning.

identified, their parent or guardians will be notified “as soon as practical,” he said. Catania and Town Manager Robert Lee attended the Monday, March 16 Board of Education meeting. About 60 parents aware of the investigation also attended. “This is a very, very difficult problem that we’re facing here and it’s going to be going on for some time,” Catania said. “A lot of notifications to be made and a lot of questions to be answered. We’re in this for the long haul.” Fasold was vice president of the Blue Dolphins Parents’ Association and had been a member of its board for around two years, according to Lee. The program is operated by the town Parks and Recreation Department and uses the high school pool. About 60 children ages 5 to 15 participate. “Just because they were there doesn’t mean they were involved in any of the videos or photographs,” Lee said. Police are also investigating if any members of other teams practicing with the Blue Dolphins may have been captured in the images taken by Fasold. Superintendent of Schools Steven LePage said counseling is available to students through the guidance office, adding additional support can be provided to families upon request. Roberta Brown, director of the town Youth Services department, is working on coordinating a parent forum with counselors.
Fasold was arrested after multiple electronic items, including an Apple iPhone X, were seized from his home.

No one wanted the season to end this way. We all just want to keep playing whether it’s in front of fans or not. We think it should be a compromise because we don’t feel it should be ripped away like this.” The Sheehan boys basketball team, led by 1,000-point scorer Garrett Molampy, was a senior-laden squad with high expectations for the state tournament. “Our season got cut short and it’s kind of unfair to all of us,” Molampy said. “We are going to do everything we can to keep pushing and make something happen. It’s nice to share the same emotions with others and its kind of nice to let it all out.”

“Preliminary forensic analysis of the iPhone revealed multiple video files and an image file of girls changing in a locker room,” said the statement from the U.S. Department of Justice. “It is alleged that Fasold produced the videos and image himself.”

“U.S. Attorney (John) Durham stressed that a complaint is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. Charges are only allegations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt,” the statement said.

“We are hoping they can possibly change their minds,” Lyman Hall senior Matt Pettit said. “We worked our (butts) off for four years. It was tough. I hoping they could have done (the state tournament) with no fans. I guarantee everyone here would agree to that.
One argument voiced by student-athletes at the rally: We are in school all day with hundreds of people with no restrictions; why isn’t the same treatment accorded to athletics?
“I would give anything to have another chance to play with my boys,” he added.

I that they wish they did more would be happy to speak sooner to prevent the spread with people. We’ve spoke with a number of people who reached out. We’ve also spoken to principals and superintendents who thanked us throughout the course of this.”
Lungarini said the CIAC serves the entire state. With 170 contests left to play, he said, it would have been difficult to finish the state tournament without further school restrictions or even closures.
“I respect our student-athletes and appreciate their disappointment. We were disappointed to make this determination as well,” Lungarini said. “We knew from the start how impactful this was. Everyone around the table making these decisions were doing so from the experience of working with kids. We wouldn’t be in the business we are if we didn’t have the love and passion for working with kids that we do.”
