Officer Don's Crime/Safety Prevention Tip

Officer Don Evans
 
Tips For Preventing Thefts From Autos
 
One of the most common types of theft is theft of valuables from your automobile. Theft from auto is strictly a crime of opportunity that can be prevented if you take away the opportunity. Thieves generally won't waste their time breaking into autos that don't have valuables in plain sight.  Please take the precautions listed below to help ensure your auto is not targeted by thieves:
 
Keep Your Valuables Out of Sight.
 
Never leave cell phones, briefcases, suitcases, or electronic devices (cell phones, iPods, laptop computers, etc.) in your car in plain view. Take these items with you, or secure them, all the time, every time.
 
Secure Your GPS Device.
 
While many GPS devices are mounted in the dashboard of the vehicle, anyone who uses a portable GPS device should take it with you, along with any other items of value, when you park the car.
 
Use Your Trunk.
 
Put valuables in the trunk or in a locked glove compartment. Hiding items under seats is better than leaving them in plain view, but securing them inside the glove compartment or trunk is a far better deterrent.
 
Remove Your Radio Faceplate.
 
If you can unfasten your sound system and take it with you, or lock it in your trunk, do so. And don't forget to do the same with your CDs and tapes.
 
Lock It Up.
 
Keep your car doors and windows locked - all the time!
 
Remember:  "Outta sight, outta mind."  If thieves can't see your valuables, they're less likely to waste their time targeting your auto.
 
Take the time to secure your valuables; it makes a difference.

Americans Should Not Hesitate To Defend Themselves From Foreign Or Urban Terrorists
  
Former Vice-President Dick Cheney President Barack Obama

Former Vice President Dick Cheney

President Barack Obama

This past week, former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney showed exactly the difference between the liberal "can't we all just get along" philosophy and real-life approaches to fighting terrorists.  Both Cheney and Obama gave speeches about national security, on the same day and in the same city, Washington, D.C.

A British writer, Nile Gardner, who observed both speeches, posted his response in Foreign Correspondent on May 23, 2009.
 
The following are excerpts from his report titled, Dick Cheney:  brutal, uncompromising, brilliant.
 
"Cheney completely overshadowed President Obama's weak-kneed and exceedingly dull speech at the National Archives.
 
It was old-fashioned, and summed up by his classic line that "there is no middle ground" in the war against Islamist terrorists.
 
There is something very reassuring about a leader who never apologizes for America's actions, possesses no self-doubts about defending his country, and believes his nation must do what is necessary to crush al-Qaeda."
 
Some liberal editorial writers will no doubt think that Cheney's realistic and no-nonsense approach to the harsh reality of terrorists and killing indicates that he has read too many super-hero comic books or watched too many western movies.
 
It should be noted that our laws allow citizens to defend themselves, even to use deadly physical force against thugs who would try to injure or kill us.
 
Dick Cheney's words are a breath of fresh air - for a change.

Let Me Introduce Intern '09, Our Summer Interns
 
 to meet ALL of the Intern '09 Class. 

Twelve students - 10 law students who have just completed their 1st year of law school and two undergrads - make up this summer's outstanding group of young people.

They will spend 10 weeks with us and in the process get a real close-up and inside view of the criminal justice system.
Busy is the watchword for this group.  From ride-a-longs with police, to visiting the jail, to assisting prosecutors in the preparation of felony cases for trial and going with them to Circuit Court, and much more, our interns will have almost no time to rest.
 
We enjoy their involvement.  They bring an enthusiasm and energy to the office that is both refreshing and fun to be around.

Investigators found 12-year-old Michaela Watkins dead in her Winchester, Kentucky home on March 11, 2007.  Michaela had approximately 35 injuries to her head, a chest injury that crushed five of her ribs and collapsed her left lung, and also had significant burns caused by scalding water on her back and legs.  Her father and step-mother, Patrick and Joy Watkins, were held jointly responsible for her injuries.  Clark County Assistant Commonwealth's Attorneys Charles Johnson and Heidi Engel prosecuted the case against the Watkins' which resulted in both parents being convicted of Wanton Murder with a sentence of life in prison.

Kentucky Supreme Court Affirms Fayette County Conviction of Homeless Sex Offender
 
Carolyn MillerBy Carolyn Miller, Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney
 
Terry Tobar

Terry Tobar

 
The Kentucky Supreme Court has upheld the Fayette County conviction of homeless sex offender Terry Tobar. Tobar challenged the constitutionality of Kentucky's sex offender laws as related to homeless sex offenders.

Tobar claimed that he could not have registered because he had no place to live.  The Supreme Court disagreed.  They said it is not illegal to be homeless, but it is illegal for a homeless sex offender to fail to provide a change of address to law enforcement.  They focused on the importance of the need for the public to know when a sex offender changes their residence, not what the residence may be.  In fact, according to the statute and the Court, there is no need for the offender to move to an actual place.
Outrage
Cheerio's - The Latest Threat To America! If This Is What Big Government Is All About - You Can Keep It!!!
 
Cheerio's OutrageOur watchdog federal government was really on the ball recently.
 
That's right.
 
The Food and Drug Administration recently chastised the makers of Cheerio's for using language on the Cheerio's box about the cereal's ability to lower cholesterol and treat heart disease.
 
Only FDA-approved drugs are allowed to make such claims, they warn.
Great!  Now shoppers will have to get a prescription for a box of Cheerio's?
 
Furthermore, if I do have a box of Cheerio's in the cupboard, without a prescription, I guess, under the FDA's bright idea, I could be charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance in the first degree?
 
By the way, General Mills, the makers of Cheerio's, says its health claims on the box have been approved for 12 years.
 
I guess this is what happens when government wants to control everything. I don't like it one bit.

The Wisdom of Thomas Howell
 
Thomas Sowell

Thomas Sowell

Thomas Sowell is one of the really wise men in America.  When he writes it is always about important matters and he always hits the mark.
 
Below are just a few of his recent thoughts which I think are appropriate as we watch our government try to take over more and more control of every aspect of our lives:
 
Responsibility for our actions:  "We seem to be moving in the direction of a society where no one is responsible for what he himself did, but we are all responsible for what somebody else did, either in the present or in the past."
 
Political Correctness has run amok:  "We have now reached the truly dangerous point where we cannot even be warned about the lethal fanatical and suicidal hatred of our society by Islamic extremists, because to do so would be politically incorrect and, in some European countries, it would be a violation of the law against inciting hostility to groups."
 
The liberal excuse machine:  "Liberals seem to think that they are doing lagging groups favors by making excuses for counter-productive and self-destructive behavior.  The poor do not need press agents. They need the truth."
 
The wrong direction of our government:  "Socialists believe in government ownership of the means of production.  Fascists believed in government control of privately owned business.  That's much more the style of this present government.  That way, politicians can intervene whenever they feel like it and then, when their interventions turn out badly, they can summon executives from the private sector before Congress and denounce them on nationwide television."
 
Control of guns by government:  "It is painfully obvious that "gun control" laws do not control guns.  The District of Columbia's very strong laws against gun ownership have done nothing to stop or even slow down the high murder rate in Washington."
 
"Back in 1954, when there were no restrictions on owning shotguns in England and there were far more owners of pistols than there were decades later, there were only 12 cases of armed robbery in London."
"By the 1990's, after stringent gun control laws were imposed, there were well over a thousand armed robberies a year in London. In the late 1990's, after an almost total ban on handguns in England, gun crimes went up another 10 %."
 
"The reason - - too obvious to be accepted by the intelligentsia - - is that law-abiding people became more defenseless against criminals who ignored the law and kept their guns."
Recent Court Case 
"Large Cash Withdrawal" Sends Bank Robber To Prison
Bank employees and police cooperate for speedy arrest.
 
Randy Pierson

Randy Pierson

At about 11:30 a.m. on June 20, 2008, a masked man walked into a bank on North Broadway Street in Lexington, produced a handgun, and announced that he would be making "a large cash withdrawal".  He left the bank minutes later with over $11,000.  Bank employees immediately called 911 and police were able to make a traffic stop on the suspect's vehicle in less than half an hour. 
 
Money & Weapon

Money and Weapon

The suspect was identified as Randy Pierson, age 47.  The clothing he used to conceal his identity, the bank's money, and a silver and black pellet pistol were all recovered from the vehicle.  Pierson subsequently confessed to the robbery. 
 
Shawna Virgin

Prosecutor Shawna Virgin

Pierson pled guilty to First Degree Robbery and was sentenced to serve ten years in the penitentiary.  Criminal records show that Pierson pled to another felony Robbery charge in a different county during the same period of time as this crime. He will be eligible for parole after serving 85% of his sentence.
