Officer Don's Crime/Safety Prevention Tip

Officer Don Evans 
 
Halloween Safety
 
The following crime prevention tips can help make Halloween safe and more enjoyable for everyone: 
 
Do not allow a child to go "Trick or Treating" alone.  Older children should take a friend and younger children should be accompanied by an adult;
 
Children should be cautioned not to approach any vehicle, occupied or not, unless they know the owner and are accompanied by a parent;
 
Parents should inspect all treats and dispose of anything that seems to have been tampered with, has been opened, or is not wrapped;
 
Children should be instructed to scream and make a scene if anyone tries to grab them or force them, in any way, to go with them;
 
Make sure that all children carry a glow stick or wear reflective clothing.  Adult escorts should carry flashlights;
 
Children should never take shortcuts through
backyards, alleys or parks;
 
A good alternative to "Trick or Treating" is for parents to organize parties at home, in schools, or in community centers.

Straight Talk from Ray the D.A.

Why Do We Target Repeat Offenders? That's Simple - They Commit Most Of The Crimes!
 
Over 12 years we have prosecuted 3,183 Repeat Offenders. As a group, they have been convicted of 45,297 crimes. That's almost 14 each.
 
These are precisely the thugs who should be in prison!
 
Repeat Offenders are responsible for the vast majority of crime that occurs, not only in Lexington, but in communities across America. 
 
Total Repeat Offenders 3,183
Total Prior Criminal Convictions 45,297
Average Prior Convictions 13.8
Total Conviction Rate 97.9%
Average Prison Sentence 7.4 years
  
The public is entitled to be protected from these predatory Repeat Offenders. We know two things about these thugs:
 
When they are on our streets - they commit crimes.
When they are in prison - THEY DON'T!

Kentucky's criminal law calls these characters Persistent Felony Offenders (P.F.O.'s). Now some academics and criminal justice policy types are trying to eliminate the increased penalties for these prolific criminals.

Kind of makes one wonder whose side they are on.

Susan Atkins, Then & Now

Susan Atkins, Then & Now

"People don't always get what they deserve," said columnist Steve Chapman, "so it is gratifying when someone does." The someone in question is Susan Atkins, age 61, who will soon die of incurable brain cancer behind bars in California.

Sharon Tate

Sharon Tate

Convicted of brutally stabbing to death actress Sharon Tate and her unborn child in 1969, Atkins was denied "compassionate release" by a parole board recently. Many people, including Atkins' prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi, had urged that she be allowed to live her last few months in freedom.
 
Charles Manson, Then & Now

Charles Manson, Then & Now

Why, precisely, does she merit such mercy? A member of Charles Manson's murderous cult, she plunged her knife into Tate repeatedly as part of a killing spree designed to "ignite a massive race war."
 
As Atkins herself admits, "when she had her own opportunity to grant clemency, she chose not to," ignoring Tate's pleas to spare her baby. When you've displayed such grotesque indifference to human life, you have some nerve asking for mercy.
 
Editor's Note:  Susan Atkins died at the Central California Women's Facility on September 24, 2009.

Police And Prosecutors Form "The Justice League"
Extra Draft for Commissioner
 
Fantasy Football"The Justice League", a fantasy football league composed of 12 assorted police officers and prosecutors, held its fourth annual draft at the Fayette Commonwealth's Attorney's Office on Friday, September 30, 2009.  In addition to her own team, League Commissioner (and Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney) Lori Boling drafted secretary John Meister, who is also her new husband.
 
The prosecutors hold a 2-1 edge in championship titles, with the initial trophy going to former third-year intern Justin Handshoe.  The second-year title was won by Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney Brad Bryant.  Detective J.D. Harville won the trophy last year and will defend against the 2009 field, which includes such teams as the Death Stars, Meister's Monsters, and The Lobsters.

UK Law Professor Robert "Let 'em out" Lawson And Prosecutor Ray "Lock 'em up" Larson Make Joint Presentation At Kentucky Parole Board Retreat 
  
U.K. Law Professor Robert G. Lawson & Fayette Commonwealth's Attorney Ray Larson

U.K. Law Professor Robert G. Lawson & Fayette Commonwealth's Attorney Ray Larson

U.K. Law School Professor Robert G. Lawson and Fayette Commonwealth's Attorney Ray Larson made a joint appearance before the Kentucky Parole Board at it's retreat at General Butler State Park, near Carrollton, Kentucky.
 
The two are long-time friends but disagree on the issue of incarceration of criminals. Lawson says Kentucky sends too many to prison. A reduced prison population would allow more and better rehabilitation programs in the prisons.
 
In addition, Lawson said prosecutors, especially Larson in Fayette County, aggressively use Kentucky's criminal laws to seek unnecessarily long prison sentences for criminals who break our laws.
 
Larson responded, "Bob Lawson is right. I do aggressively prosecute those folks who choose to break our laws, and yes, I do seek prison sentences for them. Furthermore, I feel strongly that the repeat offenders who commit the vast majority of the crimes should be sent to prison. The public is entitled to be protected from these predators."
 
"It was an enjoyable event. In addition it was nice to meet the members of the Parole Board in a more relaxed setting. Thanks to Parole Board Chairman Caroline Mudd for the invitation," said Larson. "I think it really surprises folks that Bob and I are old pals and disagree on lots of issues, but never want to be disagreeable."

Case #2:  The Kyle Brinegar Reckless Homicide Case
 
Defendant Kyle Brinegar

Defendant Kyle Brinegar

On August 25, 2006, Officer Greg Marlin attempted to make a routine traffic stop for reckless driving on New Circle Road in Lexington.  The driver of the motorcycle did not stop for Officer Marlin, and continued to accelerate to speeds up to approximately 100 MPH and ran through several stoplights.  While fleeing from the police, Kyle Brinegar ran his motorcycle into the driver's side door of Dale Breeze's car, causing a serious accident that would result in injuries to Brinegar, Breeze, and Breeze's fiancé, Cheryl Clark.  A month after the collision, 45-year-old Dale Breeze died due to injuries and complications sustained from the accident.

Paroled Thief Subdued By Victims, Returned To Prison

By Intern David Startsman
 
Defendant Darby Barnes

Defendant Darby Barnes

Two local doctors made an unwanted discovery at their residence in the early morning hours of March 7, 2007. An intruder had made entry into their military surplus all-terrain vehicle, which was parked in front of the home, and was rummaging around inside. They confronted the thief and a physical confrontation ensued which resulted in both victims suffering minor injuries and the suspect being subdued until the police arrived.

The thief was arrested and identified as Darby Barnes, age 35. Further investigation revealed that Barnes lived in the same neighborhood and had been identified as pawning property stolen in burglaries from that area. Criminal records show that Barnes was on parole at the time of his arrest and has nine prior convictions for offenses including theft, robbery, and receiving stolen property.
 
Prosecutor Dan Laren

Prosecutor Dan Laren

The defendant pled guilty in July of 2008 to Criminal Mischief, Receiving Stolen Property, and Persistent Felony Offender. His sentencing was continued for several months in order for the Court to consider an alternative sentencing plan. During this time Barnes served out the sentence for his previous crimes and was released to a halfway house in Lexington. He violated the terms of his release and in June of 2009 was finally sentenced to serve 11 years in the penitentiary.

Defendants Jeffrey Baker, John Baker & Michael Truglia, left to right 

In June of 2008, employees at Lexington home improvement stores reported individuals who were shoplifting tools and copper wire. In July of 2008, workers at a Red Mile Road construction site reported that appliances had been stolen from the apartment complex they were building. Investigation revealed that these items had been sold to area pawnshops and scrap yards by Michael Truglia, age 51. John Baker, age 39, and Jeffrey Baker, age 42, were also implicated as accomplices in the scheme.

Criminal records show that John Baker has 10 prior convictions for crimes including assault and theft. He pled guilty to felony Receiving Stolen Property and was sentenced to 3 years, probated for 4 years. Jeffrey Baker has 5 prior convictions for similar offenses and at the time of his arrest was on diversion for drug trafficking in another county. He also pled to felony Receiving Stolen Property and was sentenced to 2 years, probated 5 years, consecutive to 3 years for violation of his diversion agreement.
 
Prosecutor Brandon Faulkner

Prosecutor Brandon Faulkner

In 2003, Truglia pled guilty to Theft and Persistent Felony Offender in Lexington and was sentenced to 15 years based on four previous felony convictions from New Jersey for burglary and narcotics offenses. He was paroled in February of 2006 and returned for violating the terms of his release in December of that year. He was paroled again in September of 2007 and returned to prison for violating the terms of his release less than a month later. He was released again in March of 2008 and was on parole at the time of his newest arrest less than five months later.

Truglia pled guilty to Receiving Stolen Property, Theft, and Persistent Felony Offender for a total sentence of 10 years. The Court ordered that half this sentence run concurrently, and the other half consecutively to the time Truglia has remaining on his previous sentence. He will be eligible for parole (again) after serving 20% of this time, which works out to approximately 2 years from his latest sentencing date.
