MARTIN COUNTY — Nothing leaves a bigger hole in a community’s heart than an unsolved murder. On Monday, Jan. 11, The Martin County Sheriff’s Office started the process of exhuming three unidentified infants aiming to solve the 1983 murder of Baby Moses.

Secondary school mock primaries Students at Hidden Oaks get a firsthand glimpse at the electoral process.

FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS

PALM CITY — Dec. 21, four seventh grade civics classes at Hidden Oaks Middle School in Palm City participated in a mock presidential election organized by the Supervisor of Elections for Martin County (SOEMC), Vicki Davis, and the Martin County School District.

The election was the brainchild of Dr. Mark Malham, Martin County Coordinator of Career

Technical Education and Curriculum, who was approached by Davis with the desire to spread electoral awareness in Martin County schools.

Before casting their ballots, the middle schoolers were given a brief explanation of the voting process by Kherri Anderson, Deputy of Elections Outreach, who encouraged them to talk to their parents about the activity and even accompany them in November.

“I remember going to the polls with my parents back when machines had levers,” said Anderson, “and when I came of age I didn’t have to think about voting.”

The seventh graders were provided with the same ballot booths, privacy folders, and optical scan machines that have been in use in Florida since 2008.

They lined up in the school’s Media Center and were admitted to the booths in tens. After filling in their ballots, they brought the completed forms to Elections Systems Assistant Zachary Galante who helped them scan their votes. To lend authenticity, the ballots were comprised of the current top-polled candidates in both parties. In preparation for the election, the students were assigned to research the candidates and discuss party issues in their classes.

Prior to Hidden Oaks, elections were held at Stuart Middle and Indiantown Middle. During the winter break, SOEMC visited the two remaining middle schools, Murray Middle and Dr. David L. Anderson Middle.

The overall results were with 314 votes, Hillary Clinton beat out Donald Trump’s 295 by a slim 2 percent margin. Dr. Ben Carson was third with 142, followed

by Sen. Marco Rubio with 111, and Sen. Bernie Sanders with 82 votes. Former Gov. Bush, Sen. Ted Cruz, and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley brought up the caboose.

ELECTION from page 1 This mirrors a Dec. 28 poll from Rasmussen Reports which shows Clinton at 37 per cent and Trump at 36, provided the presidential election were held today between these two candidates.

The students at Hidden Oaks have spent the last few months studying the American Constitution, Federalist Papers, and the Legislative Branch in general.

They were visited by the 4th District Court of Appeals, and were also able to witness a live mock trial in their classroom, according to teacher Dawne Hutchinson.

This spring when they study the executive branch, they will participate in their own mock debates.

They have also been encouraged to watch the 2016 State of the Union Address with their families.

When asked why voting is important, Jack Breslauer, one of Beverly Burns’ students, said “If Americans didn’t have the right to vote, it would take away free speech.”

Grace Ferraro, his classmate, seconded the notion: “If everyone stops voting [America] will turn into tyranny.”

Davis says that the mock elections have met with positive feedback, and that numerous teachers of other subjects asked how they could involve their classes in

Jack Breslauer the future. It couldn’t have come at a better time, she adds, only a few months before Florida’s preferential presidential primary, scheduled for March 15.

In the 2014 general election, only 19.9 percent of voters aged 18 to 29 casts their ballots nationally, according to Tufts University’s Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement. This was the lowest turnout of young voters reported since 1978. Martin County’s statistics are not far off: 23 percent of voters aged 18 to 25 went to the polls that year. In 2012, a presidential election year, the numbers were up 6 percent.

This April, SOEMC will host their annual voter registration drive at Martin County High Schools. Students as young as 16 years old can preregister with the department. When they come of age, their information will be entered into the database. The drive will be held in all public schools as well as private and parochial schools such as The Pine School and Community Christian Academy.

Commissioner Doug Smith launches effort to see customs facility takeoff Patrick McCallister STAFF WRITER

pmccallister@YourVoiceWeekly.com

MARTIN COUNTY — Commissioner and reelection candidate Doug Smith aims to revive a long discussed proposal regarding the addition of a U.S. Customs and Border Enforcement facility at Witham Field, Martin County Airport.

Smith hosted a meeting to launch the effort on Jan. 7. He’s using his reelection Facebook page to list reasons for reviving and approving the customs facility.

In a phone interview after the meeting, Smith said he’s aiming to make customs not only a campaign issue in his race, but in the other two under way.

“This is why we have elections,” Smith said. “The political majority that’s running the county today doesn’t agree with customs. There are two of us on the commission who do.”

Sheriff Snyder

“I suspect someone local knows what’s going on (with Baby Moses),” Snyder said.

“This is a good time to come in and talk to us.

Don’t wait until we knock on the door.”

Sheriff Snyder For example, the DNA profiling was first introduced to investigations in the late ‘80s, long after Baby Moses was buried.

“I suspect someone local knows what’s going on (with Baby Moses),” Snyder said. “This is a good time to come in and talk to us. Don’t wait until we knock on the door.”

Snyder said it’s possible that there are mitigating circumstances that led to the Baby Moses’ death. He said solving the case is about a pursuit of truth, compassion and closure as well as justice.

“Whoever did this (murder) someday will face his maker and will be held accountable,” Snyder said.

Editor’s note: The Martin County Sheriff’s Office began the process of the exhumations and continues as of press time. We have learned that six forensic anthropologists from Florida Gulf Coast University are assisting detectives. Dr. Heather Walsh-Haney is the lead anthropologist for the group. The experts will work with Martin County Sheriff’s detectives. The remains are being taken to the medical examiner’s office to begin the DNA process.

“There’re bones there and mitochondrial DNA,” Sheriff William Snyder said before the exhumation. “There’s a real shot at finding out who the mother is.”

That is if Baby Moses’ mother’s DNA is on a discoverable record.

The department on Jan. 12 at 1:02 p.m. exhumed what they believe to be the first unknown infant.

“Detectives determined that the exhumation of the infant known as “Baby Moses,” was necessary in an effort to solve the 1983 murder of the newborn. However, due to a lack of records, the cemetery could only provide us with information on three grave sites, all within close proximity of each other. All three of those grave sites are labeled “unidentified infant.” Therefore, all three graves must be exhumed in order for us to obtain baby Moses’s remains. Although our hope is to finally solve the murder of Baby Moses, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office will work with experts to try to determine the identity of the other two children,” said Christine Christofek Weiss in a press release.

Baby Moses was found near Sandsprit Park in the St. Lucie River in November almost 32 years ago. Detectives dubbed him “Moses” after the biblical character. He’d been drowned shortly after birth. There was evidence that no medical or birthing professional was present for his delivery. At the time, detectives talked to lots of people and even searched garbage for leads.

Nothing.

Cops have a famous name for unsolved murders — cold cases.

They’re the ones that stay with retired detectives.

“We’ve got dozens of murders over the years that were never solved,” Snyder said.

Baby Moses is the first of a stack of cold cases Snyder hopes will get attention by posting them on Facebook on a page the department is creating for cold cases: Martin County Sheriff’s Office Unsolved Crimes.

“Cold cases have their own challenges,” Snyder said.

As years drag on, people move and die. Sometimes people’s motives for not going forward at the beginning of an investigation gain strength over the years.

Sometimes evidence is lost.

Sometimes detectives’ notes are enigmatic to new ones picking up their cases.

But, Snyder said, sometimes cold cases are cracked, because after years of haunting people need and want to talk. Sometimes better science has come along to reexamine the evidence.

Political Grandstanding vs. Elementary School Letter to the Editor: In a recent letter to the editor titled “Parents’ rights vs school’s rights, who wins?” regarding a recent emergency management situation at Bessey Creek Elementary (BCE), I thought a more appropriate title would be “Political Grandstanding vs. Elementary School Administrator executing emergency management procedures, who wins?” I don’t mention the author’s name because they are running for a political office and sit on the same Student Advisory Committee (SAC) for BCE as myself.

SAC is the decision making body for school improvement and accountability at the school level.

The primary function of SAC is to assist in the preparation and evaluation of the school im-

provement plan and to assist the principal with the annual school budget. Our SAC membership includes the principal, assistant principal, teachers, education support employees, students, parents, and business and community members. At the last SAC meeting on Jan. 7 (the same day Your Voice News & Views was delivered to many homes in Palm City), the author brought up the recent evacuation at BCE and the principal and assistant principal explained the emergency management procedures followed and what actually happened in detail. After the meeting, I went home and went through the mail and found his letter. I was dumbfounded, how someone could write a letter before obtaining the facts from the people that were

there, sit in a meeting with them, and not even mention his issues regarding “parental rights”, “school rights”, or “Do not let the school bully you,” let alone not disclose he had written a public letter criticizing them, or offering any suggestions for improvement or changes needed to the safety policy.

As parents, my wife and I selected our home location based on the excellent reputation of Bessey Creek Elementary, its teachers and administrators, which consistently obtain some of the highest proficiency scores in Martin County and has received the 5 Star School Award for 18 straight years. Also, having served on the SAC for the last three years, I understand that we implicitly trust our teachers and school administrators to keep our children safe every time we send them to school.

They are responsible for knowing where our children are at all times, not only in an emergency. For example, when there is lightning in the area, the school

administrators and teachers will not allow our children to go to car line to be picked up because of the danger, we wait however long it takes until it passes. They ask us not to pick up our children early thirty minutes before dismissal, because of the logistics of ensuring all the children are safely picked up, go to extended day or get to the bus.

These policies like the emergency management procedures are meant to protect our children, not take away parental rights or “bullying.” A SAC member is responsible for serving as a communications link between the SAC and the community and parents. I may not agree with certain state or county school policies, but I won’t be throwing our school administrators under the school bus for implementing emergency management procedures and keeping all of our children safe.

Scott C. King, proud parent of a former, current and future Bessey Creek Elementary student.

Parent praises Bessey Creek Elementary Letter to the Editor: I was compelled to write this response to the recent letter to the editor titled “Parent’s rights vs school’s rights, who wins?” As a parent of three Bessey Creek Ele-

mentary students, I also received the call that there was a mechanical issue in one of the buildings, the children were evacuated, the children were safe, and that once emergency responders completed their work and provided the all

clear, students would return to class.

Almost immediately after receiving the message, I received a call from another parent for whom I am listed as her children’s emergency pick-up person. She asked what I thought we should do and asked if I would be “rushing” to the school to retrieve my children and if so, please retrieve her son and daughter as well. I had contemplated going to the school but logic had already won by the time I received her call. I advised her that the major points of the message were the children were safe and classes would resume.

We implicitly trust the school administration, teachers and staff to keep our children safe at all times and this day was no different. We trust our emergency responders to provide their aid and expertise, so I trusted that on that day they were on sight providing what was necessary. If every parent had rushed to the school that day, it would be roughly 400 parents trying to see or retrieve their children — making an already difficult situation

chaotic and would interfere with any remaining educational time left in the school day. I truly believe that the safety of all students, not just my three children, is of utmost priority to the school’s administrators, teachers and staff.

Upon disembarking the school bus that afternoon, my three boys were aflutter with the exciting news of the day and proceeded to detail the events. I asked them if they were in anyway scared?

I received a resounding, “No.” When asked if they felt safe. I received a resounding “Yes.” I did not view that day as “parent’s rights versus school rights,” but the common sense management of an emergency situation. The situation solidified my trust in the school’s administration, teachers and staff to keep my children and all children safe at all times.

members who are elected countywide, but they must live in their districts.

A customs facility in Stuart would let pilots fly straight into the airport from, say, the Bahamas. Additionally, boaters using the Okeechobee Waterway after visiting foreign areas could clear customs locally before heading to the state’s interior or west coast.

For now, pilots flying into Stuart from other countries must land in West Palm Beach or Fort Pierce to clear customs. Supporters say if pilots could fly into Stuart it would generate sales at and around the airport for goods and services.

Opponents alternately argue that there aren’t enough aviators and boaters to cover the operating expenses, and that it would generate an unreasonable amount of traffic at the airport for the local neighborhood.

The proposed customs facility seemed like it was heading for a landing this time last year. Then it collided midair with opposition.

At its March 17 meeting last year, the commission shot holes in the proposed customs facility’s wings in a 3-2 vote. In another 3-2 vote back in 2014 the commission approved advertising for bids to build it. The commission planned to use a $900,000 state grant along with about $500,000 from the Airport Enterprise Fund to build the facility.

The lowest bid it got back was about $200,000 over the proposed budget.

The swing in both votes was Commissioner Anne Scott. In 2014 she disappointed customs opponents by giving a go-ahead to set a budget and get bids. At the St. Paddy’s Day meeting last year, she disappointed customs proponents by voting no.

Darlene Fuggetta is challenging Scott’s reelection bid. Fuggetta attended Customs Enforcement Facility meeting. No other commission candidates did.

Palm City’s commission member and reelection candidate John Haddox was a staunch supporter of customs. He worked with the Martin County Marine and Aviation Alliance for about a year to get it to pony up dollars to assure the county that it would help pay for any shortfalls in the estimated $240,000 a year operational costs. The alliance promised the county up to $50,000 a year for the first three years of operation if there were shortfalls. The commission accepted the deal in a 3-2 vote in 2014. Scott was the swing vote then, too, siding with Haddox and Smith.

Haddox’s election challenger, former commission member Ed Ciampi, too, is a supporter of customs.

www.YourVoiceWeekly.com “I’m in favor of customs,” Ciampi said. “I was one of the first people to vote on it when it came up originally. I believe firmly and strongly that it will benefit the community.”

Robert “Bob” Langevin, who is a member of the Airport Noise Advisory Committee, was at Smith’s meeting. He said there are numerous reasons he supports energizing the customs facility efforts.

“You’ve got the employment situation and the economic benefits it would bring to Martin County,” he said Additionally, Langevin said terrorism is on a lot of minds these days with unsettling events in the Middle East, Europe and California.

“One of the things we can do is add a layer of security at Witham Airport,” Langevin said. “It’s an additional security layer.”

Smith has two challengers: Henry Copeland and Jacqui Thurlow-Lippish. In a telephone interview, Copeland said he’s solidly opposed to building a customs facility in Stuart.

“I have been and remain and likely will always remain opposed to a customs house at the airport,” he said.

However, Copeland said customs is a good election issue for Smith to broach.

“This whole issue is a good one and it’s going to promote a conversation we need to have,” he said.

Copeland said customs represents a broader question of balancing community and economic-development concerns.

“Even if it were financially viable I would oppose a customs house,” Copeland issue. “The reason is simple, the airport is firmly inside our urban communities.”

However, Copeland said his opposition to a customs facility doesn’t signal antagonism to the local flying community.

“We have a wonderful aviation facility at Witham Field,” Copeland said. “I support the community aviation at the airport.”

Efforts to resuscitate customs started right after the commission voted it down last year. The aviation and marine alliance quickly announced it wasn’t giving up the fight.

Smith said the political reality is that customs isn’t dead and never was.

“As I tell people every day on every issue, the simple reality of moving anything forward in the county is three votes,” he said.

“You have to count to three.”

He said the meeting gives him encouragement that customs will be a deciding campaign issue and he hopes to tap its support.

“I think the most important part of the (Jan. 7 meeting) was all the new (customs supporters) who came out,” he said.

“This is money well spent,” commented Cesar Trujillo, on-site Keller Williams Project Manager.

“Harbour Ridge will reap the benefits of this investment in fitness and wellness for years to come. I feel confident it will attract new, young members looking for the complete package of amenities that can only be found in a country club environment like Harbour Ridge.”

Peacock + Lewis Architects prepared the architectural and interior designs for the new lifestyle

center. President Brian Idle said, “With input from the membership, we were able to create a design that will meet the needs of existing members and provide space for growth as the trends in fitness change. The design compliments the casually-elegant characteristic of the Harbour Ridge campus.”

Donald Proctor, President/CEO of Proctor Construction, who will build the Lakeside project, remarked that new construction is often difficult to integrate into an existing environment.

“But natural beauty is a trademark of the Harbour Ridge landscape and we expect it to assimi-

late the new building in a pleasing way.”

Club members are getting what they’ve been asking for with the addition of a new salon and spa expanse.

“I am especially pleased that the committee included area to house the full range of salon and spa services as well as fitness,” said Fitness/Spa Director Jennifer Tamules. “That’s what we hear more members want.”

PALM CITY — Harbour Ridge Yacht & Country Club broke ground today for Lakeside, the new $8.9 million fitness, tennis, swim and salon/spa facility to be completed on the current fitness center site on Gilson Road in St. Lucie County over the next year.

The new facility will replace the existing Fitness/Tennis Center and pool, update the tennis courts, add a separate realty office and expand the parking lot.

“The board recognized the need for this improved and expanded amenity to our club and moved quickly to accommodate it for our current and future members,” said club president, Herb Heuchert said. “We are especially proud to be able to achieve it without a member assessment or any additional long-term debt.”

Among those gathered at the site were club, board members, staff members, design and construction partners for the project and commissioner Tod Mowry from the St. Lucie County Planning Commission.

“We were especially pleased that the Commissioner attended today to meet the people involved and see first-hand the energy this project will bring to our commu-

The Collings Foundation’s annual Wings of Freedom tour is a good place for children to meet the few remaining World War II veterans. The three-plane tour will launch in Stuart this year and go to Melbourne next.

WINGS from page 9 were later used by racers to wow crowds.

The Wings of Freedom tour’s Consolidated B-24J Liberator is the last in the air. The B-24 played numerous roles, from bombing Japan to long-range hunts for submarines. The B-24Ds were also used for black opps support, such as Operation Carpet Bagger.

The Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress is perhaps the most iconic of World War II aircraft that did one of the most famous missions — daytime precision bombing runs accompanied by P-51s and P-47 Thunderbolts.

Chaney said the planes are a huge draw, but there’s another, albeit less predictable, attraction at the Wings of Freedom tours.

The dwindling number of World War II veterans, some of whom flew in these and other planes of the time.

“Tours like this really tend to pull the veterans out,” Chaney said. “They’ll typically come and stay for a time just to hang out and be a part of the event.”

He said many love to get and an-

swer questions and describe their experiences.

Today the youngest World War II veterans are 89. The Department of Veterans Affairs reports there’ll be only a rare remnant by 2020.

Chaney said children born up to a few years ago are in the last generation who’ll meet any who served in World War II. He said Wings of Freedom is a good place to take children to seek out of the vets.

“These young kids, they’re going to tell their children that they had a chance to talk to a World War II vet,” he said.

Wings of Freedom will be at 2240 S.E. Witham Field Drive, Stuart. It’ll take visitors noon to 4:30 p.m. on Friday, then 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The tour will be at 1401 General Aviation Drive, Melbourne. It’ll take visitors noon to 4:30 p.m. on Monday, then 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Thursday, it’ll be open from 9 a.m. to noon.

Ticket prices for the walkthrough tours are $12 for adults and $6 for children 12 and younger. To make flight reservations, call (978) 562-9182.

Murphy backs President’s actions on guns Patrick McCallister STAFF WRITER

See GUNS page 22

24075

TREASURE COAST — Congressman Patrick Murphy [FL-18] backs President Barack Obama’s executive actions and calls for Congress to pass legislation aimed at reducing unnecessary gun deaths.

On Tuesday, Jan. 5, the president outlined executive actions he’ll take hoping to reduce gun violence. Murphy appeared in a White House telephone press conference the following day.

Murphy said there was a moment days before he was sworn into office when it seemed he’d be part of a united Congress enacting gun-sales and background-check reforms.

“I think back to the very first orientation I had when I was elected to Congress,” he said. “(The Sandy Hook Elementary shooting) had just happened. We all got the news that it happened.

We looked around at one another and said we’d do something.”

Murphy lamented, “To this day, nothing has happened.”

Valerie Jarrett, senior advisor to the president, spoke at the phone press conference. She said that the administration

has four goals: increasing the number of legal sellers who must perform background checks; hiring more Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents; increasing funding for mental-health treatment by $500 million a year; and using the federal government’s purchasing power to improve technologies that limit the possible users of a firearm. Murphy said all of them are reasonable.

“What the president has announced do not infringe on law-abiding Americans,” he said.

Both the president and Murphy said Congress is inexplicably dragging its feet on closing loopholes that allow legal gun sales without background checks and de facto gun dealers slipping past licensing requirements when doing so is popular. At his press conference, Obama described the situation in stark terms.

“The problem is some gun sellers have been operating under a different set of rules,” the president said. “A violent felon can buy the exact same weapon over the Internet with no background check, no questions asked.”

He went on to say, “So we’ve created a system in which dangerous people are allowed to play by a different set of rules than a responsible gun owner who buys his or her gun the right way and subjects themselves to a background check. That doesn’t make sense. Everybody should have to abide by the same rules.”

Republicans have criticized the president’s remarks and proposed executive

Partnership puts family in driver’s seat FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS

MARTIN COUNTY — A partnership of three agencies is helping a family on its journey to a better future.

Trinetta Terry and her two young daughters received a car on Dec. 29, 2015, thanks to efforts by SafeSpace, House of Hope and Project LIFT. Representatives of the three agencies gathered at House of Hope in Stuart to present the keys and title to Ms. Terry, who was accompanied by her daughters, Aukeria, 7, and Alexis, 5 The car is a 1999 Chevrolet Malibu that was donated to House of Hope, a Martin County agency that helps people with basic needs and life skills.

When House of Hope receives vehicles or bicycles as donations, the agency turns to Project LIFT for service and repairs. Project LIFT (Life Initiatives for Teens) is a local agency that helps at-risk youth by teaching them skilled trades, connecting them with mentors and providing counseling.

Meanwhile, SafeSpace, which provides shelter and services to victims of domestic violence, was

seeking a car for the Terry family. The House of Hope car was a perfect fit for the family and the agencies’ missions, as each strives to help people achieve greater stability and independence in their lives.

When asked what the car will mean to her, Ms. Terry immediately said, “Work!”

She said that she’ll be able to drive farther for a higher paying job. “I’m looking toward the time when I am out of the shelter and will have more expenses, like after-school child care,” she said.

The family won’t have to worry about one expense: Project LIFT has offered oil changes for life.

As for their first trip in the car, young Aukeria had an idea: To the store for a slushie!

House of Hope is on the verge of providing another car to one of its clients, making a total of four vehicles given to people in need through House of Hope in 2015.

Clients who receive cars are carefully selected: They generally are people who have been working with House of Hope case managers on a plan to become more self-sufficient. They are in need but would be able to sustain the maintenance, fueling

Often, the vehicle will mean that members of the family will be able to access or maintain employment and/ or education to make them more stable and independent.

House of Hope always welcomes the donation of vehicles. For information about donating your car, please contact Dawn Abate

at (772) 286-4673, ext. 1002, or dawn@hohmartin.org.

MARTIN COUNTY — On Jan. 7, Soroptomist International of Stuart (SOS) helped kick off Human Trafficking Prevention Month in Martin County, a national awareness month that was endorsed last year by a Martin County Board of Commissioners proclamation, backed by SOS. Commissioner Doug Smith gave a short presentation where he familiarized the club with some of the hard facts regarding human trafficking. The talk was occasioned by a new county ordinance that requires all adult establishments — strip clubs, adult entertainment businesses, and unlicensed massage parlors — to post signs encouraging anyone who is affected by human trafficking to call the National Human Trafficking Resource Center.

of a state-wide statute that also requires signs to be posted in rest stops, commercial airports, emergency rooms, and other locales where those at risk may frequent.

The signs in Martin County were paid for by SOS. Representatives from the Martin County Sheriff’s office and County Attorney’s office were brought in as authoritative guests, and Stuart City Commissioner Eulah Clarke was also present. At this time, the ordinance affects only three establishments (two massage parlors and one strip club) in unincorporated Martin County. It is undetermined whether or not Stuart will pass its own ordinance.

Florida Department of Transportation will be in charge of enforcing sign postage in rest stops.

While he is unaware of any confirmed cases of human trafficking in Palm City, Smith said that because one key human trafficking industry is agriculture, it is not unlikely that some form of trafficking is occurring west of the canal.

Human trafficking is defined as any labor or commercial sex work where the worker is compelled by force, fraud, or coercion. Commercial sex work performed by children is unconditionally considered human trafficking, as children are not able to give legal consent.

Human trafficking is an industry that primarily operates in the shadows. Because of this, it can be difficult to establish just how serious an issue it is. There is no doubt, however, that it is a serious issue. Globally there are an estimated 20.9 million victims of human trafficking, making it the second largest criminal industry under drug trafficking. Recently, the International Labor Organization estimated that as much as $150 billion dollars is made off of the forced labor of men, women, and children around the world.

This latest statute, proposed by Lake Worth representative Dave Kerner, is one of a ceaseless series of anti-trafficking legislation that has come about in the last ten years, much of which local Congresswoman Gayle Harrell has championed. In 2014, she helped author a bill that focused on the treatment of human trafficking

“(The new ordinance) is a start. The laws take two or three years to implement. It’s like a bite out of the apple, but not the whole apple. But once the first bite is taken, it opens the door.

Awareness is one thing, a number to call is another, and prevention is another.”

Commissioner Doug Smith victims by the Department of Children and Families.

One setback for authorities is not knowing how to treat this sensitive issue. Brittany Brooks, legal counsel for the Sheriff department, says they are planning on implementing training programs and will start distributing discreet novelty items such as chap sticks to help spread awareness.

A major challenge for anti-trafficking proponents is the misconception many people have that human trafficking doesn’t affect them. “Human trafficking isn’t just something that happens in other countries,” says Harrell, who has been at the forefront of anti-trafficking legislation for years.

“It happens in our communities as well. And it isn’t just the lower classes that are affected.”

Florida is ranked third highest in the U.S. for human trafficking incidents, according to calls made to the National Human Trafficking Resource Center. Out of the 310 Sunshine State cases reported last year, an astonishing 228 were related to sex trafficking, and nearly half of them involved minors. While Miami, Broward County, and Tampa are considered the biggest human trafficking hubs in Florida, the Treasure Coast is also known as a hotspot. “(The new ordinance) is a start,” said Smith. “The laws take two or three years to implement. It’s like a bite out of the apple, but not the whole apple. But once the first bite is taken, it opens the door.

Awareness is one thing, a number to call is another, and prevention is another.”

“My wife Sharon and I are absolutely thrilled that our business will be showcased in a professionally-produced video by Wells Fargo,” said Rick Kazdin, co-owner with Sharon of Bright White Paper Co. “I had no idea how long it took and how much is involved in creating a high-quality video, even a short one.”

The video, which will now have to be scripted and edited, is expected to be launched on the Wells Fargo website sometime around April of this year.

Bright White Paper Co. is recognized in the industry as an innovator, manufacturer, distributor and discounter of products dedicated to helping businesses and organizations self-print and display economical, on-demand signage.

actions. Congressman Bill Posey represents the Space Coast, just north of Murphy’s district. His office said that Congress’ inaction on tightening selling regulations and background checks are of Obama’s making. George Cecala, Posey’s chief of staff, said the president has stood in the way of legislative progress with ideological intransigence.

In an emailed response to queries, Congressman Posey said, “The President’s executive action won’t prevent the tragedies that inspired him to act. But they could very well prevent law-abiding citizens from exercising their Constitutional Second Amendment Rights, and infringe upon the privacy and due process rights of Social Security recipients and military veterans.”

Murphy said that the president’s announced executive actions aren’t going to end all gun violence, but they will make a difference.

“While this is a much needed first step, it’s disappointing that it needed executive action,” he said.

Additionally, Murphy, who is running for the Senate, said that he’s seen a change in attitudes toward tightening gun sales in the last two years.

“I definitely sense a difference

14th Annual Luncheon to benefit ACC FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS

MARTIN COUNTY — Now that the festivities of the holiday season have ended and the brightly-colored decorations are put away for another year, the important topic of Alzheimer’s disease will be taken up at a notable event. At 11:30 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 29 the 14th Annual Luncheon to benefit Alzheimer’s Community Care’s programs and day care center in Martin County will take place at Mariner Sands Country Club in Stuart.

The featured speaker will be Dr. David Watson, founder of the Alzheimer’s Research and Treatment Center in Lake Worth. Dr. Watson has participated in more than 300 clinical trials for the treatment or prevention of Alzheimer’s disease over the past 20

years and is considered one of the leaders in this field. He is a Certified Clinical Trial Investigator and presently serves as principal investigator on numerous clinical trials for Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Watson first became interested in treating and — hopefully — one day finding a cure for this disease while caring for his grandmother who suffered from it. He subsequently has lost several family members to Alzheimer’s. Dr. Watson is passionate in his quest to find a cure for this dreaded disease.

Bryan Garner, Communications Manager of FPL, will serve as Master of Ceremonies and the presenting speaker will be Mary Barnes, President and CEO of Alzheimer’s Community Care.

Tickets are $90 per person. Contact Deanna Henning at 772-2236351 or www.alzcare.org.

“We were looking for something to take part in,” Jones said. “A friend suggested the Dance Academy and said she’d have fun. We wanted to find something that would teach her grace, for her physical and mental well-being. It strengthened her. It almost played out after a few years, but she got a part in a dance in the year-end show. She got applause. I was in the back and saw the applause. I knew then that I was in trouble.

That changed everything. Two teachers said, ‘She’s been bitten; you’re in trouble.’ I’ve been supporting her to make it as great an experience for as long as she

wants to.”

Both Russ and Betty Jones help out with the other “dance parents,” doing whatever work in needed behind-the-scenes. They may set up and tear down stages or help with the day-to-day working of the school. Betty Jones not only volunteers, but works parttime in the office.

The Dance Academy of Stuart was founded by professional dancer Alicia Chodera in 1997. The school has three locations, in Stuart, Palm City and Port St. Lucie.

Russ Jones believes they could not have made a better choice.

“The quality of the dance teaching is, bar none, the best. We’ve

had students come from other schools. The teachers are professionals for various backgrounds in the dance world. Ms. Alicia is a dancer herself and she has surrounded herself with teachers who work hard to develop these girls.”

The school accommodates students from age 3 through high school graduation and teaches everything from ballet and pointe to jazz, hip-hop and pom cheer.

Chodera recently started the Atlantic East Coast Dance Theatre to serve as a professional dance troupe for graduates who wish to

PALM CITY – Russ Jones is the pastor of Faith Family Worship Center in Palm City, and he is used to standing before a crowd.

This year, though, he had an experience that made him appreciate the courage of his daughter, Anneka, a dance student at the Dance Academy of Stuart.

“My daughter takes a class with (Academy founder) Ms. Alicia,” Jones said. “She wanted the fathers and daughters to dance together. For the most part, we said ‘yes’ and promised to do our best.”

The dance was inspired by a song about a daughter growing up but being her father’s daughter.

“It was a moving piece,” Jones said. “It made a lot of people cry.

Just for the few seconds we were out there, I got to see what my daughter does out there. I have to say those girls have a lot of guts.

I was humbled by the experience and walked away with a new appreciation for what my daughter is. I am in awe of her courage and talent. I was terrified, and I speak in front of thousands and am fine.

That scared the daylights out of me, but it’s her comfort zone.”

Anneka, now 12, began dancing at the Dance Academy when she was 4. Jones and his wife, Betty, the youth pastor at Faith Family, were looking for an activity for

Audience key in musical revue Shelley Koppel STAFF WRITER

skoppel@YourVoiceWeekly.com

STUART — Gale Baker wears many hats. She is a playwright/ actor/director/teacher and those are just the titles for the last few years. Her musical, “Pin Curls” was performed at the Barn Theatre, she directed “Laura” there in November and she is the author, director and one-third of the cast of the musical revue, “20th Century Broadway at the Movies,” which will be performed at the A.C. T. Studio Theatre in Stuart Jan. 30.

Baker spoke recently about the upcoming production.

“Act one is songs from Broadway and act two is songs from cinema,” she said. “Many of the familiar songs that are the most

JONES from page 25 continue dancing.

Students put on several performances, using the stage at South Fork High School to perform a holiday show and a mini-version of “The Nutcracker” that was performed twice. Anneka Jones was

popular came from Broadway, and anything from Broadway is fair game. It’s everything from Cole Porter and ‘Anything Goes,’ to ‘Phantom of the Opera.’

“We’ll do a tribute to the songs from Fred Astaire movies. There will be music from Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Stephen Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber. There are also theme songs from movies.

We’ll do ‘Moon River.’ People forget it came from ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s.’”

One of the more exciting aspects of the evening is that it is highly interactive and audience participation is expected. As the intimate theater holds some 40 seats, it’s not hard to get involved.

“There will be a contest of what came from where,” Baker said.

“Since we’ll have Cole Porter and ‘Anything Goes,’ there will proba-

bly be a Charleston contest.”

Baker began her career as a jazz singer, and she began writing while she was on stage, to interweave the music together.

“I always like to involve the audience,” she said. “I find that anytime you can get the audience involved, if they connect a song with you and with something that’s important to them, they’re more appreciative.”

After this show, Baker is not taking a vacation. She will lead a sixweek Saturday acting workshop at A.C. T., beginning Feb. 6, and her show, “Pharmaceutical-the Revusical,” will be presented at A.C.T. in April. It’s an irreverent musical look at our obsession with prescription drugs and at the pharmaceutical companies that hawk them. The show contains all-new material she has written

and is her first revue that has only original material. Baker is also at work on a play about post-traumatic stress disorder and would love to speak with veterans suffering with it.

This is one of the few times local audiences have the opportunity to see Baker on stage as she does not often perform anymore. The A.C.T. Theatre is a small venue and seats go quickly, so get yours.

“20th Century Broadway at the Movies” will be presented at the A.C.T. Studio Theatre, 2399 S.E. Ocean Blvd., Stuart, on Jan. 30 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $24 and seating is extremely limited.

For more information about the show or about Gale Baker’s upcoming class, call (772) 210-5373 or visit the website www.actstudiotheatre.com.

in both casts. This spring, they will dance on the Lyric Theatre stage.

For Russ Jones, who met his wife at the Central Bible College in Springfield, Mo., dance has taken on an important role in their family life. Anneka is home-schooled and her life revolves around

school and dance, which she hopes to pursue professionally.

“We go to school, we dance,” Jones said. “We work everything else in around that. As people of faith, we trust in God that it will all come together, even though he hasn’t let us in (on the plan) yet. We’re happy with whatever

she does. Just do God’s will. If it’s dancing, go for it.”

The Dance Academy of Stuart is located at 333 Tressler Dr., Stuart.

MARTIN COUNTY — Sue DeFerrari will present a lecture on Sister Dorothy Stang in a program to be held Saturday, Jan. 30, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Best Western Downtown Stuart.

Ten years ago Sister Dorothy Stang was shot and killed in Brazil because of her outspoken advocacy for the poor and for the rain forest. Born in 1931 in Dayton Ohio, she joined the Sisters in Notre Dame de Namur. When she was 17. In 1966 she went to Brazil, where for the next 40 years she fought for the rights of rural workers and peasants and promoted sustainable land development. This angered the loggers and cattle ranchers. She said, “I know they want to kill me, but I will not go away.”

DeFerrari is Director of Minis-

try at the MorningStar Renewal Center in Miami. She holds two Masters degrees from Boston College — in Pastoral Theology and Social Work. She has over 15 years’ experience in community organizing, nonprofit administration, and pastoral theology.

Following the talk, members of the Celebrations Group will lead a prayer service that will feature readings from Sister Dorothy. She wrote, “Pray for a world where all can live — plants, animals and humans — in peace and harmony.”

A complimentary continental breakfast will be served. The meeting is free and open to the public. The event is the ninth annual program sponsored by the Celebrations Group, a small group of Martin County Christian women.

For more information, call Louise Cunha at (772) 324-8750.
