BC jail officer arrested By MARK J. CRAWFORD Telegraph Staff Writer The Bradford County Sheriff's Office notified media this week that one of its own has been arrested. Jail correctional officer Terry Jenkins of Hampton .was arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation Friday, April 1, following an investigation into. allegations that Jenkins unnecessarily struck an inmate. Jenkins is said to have isolated the inmate, then hit him in the face and kicked him in the torso. The arresting agents took Jenkins to Jacksonville where he was later released on a $25,000 bond from the federal courthouse. Jenkins has worked part time for the -Bradford County Jail since 2001 and full tiiie-for'the- Florida Department of Corrections.since 1995. Court records indicate the inmate, with a criminal history of multiple convictions that include aggravated battery, burglary and kidnapping, sustained a "large black eye." Outside of the FBI, this seems to be all that is known about the inmate. Even Sheriff Bob Milner said he didn't know the inmate's identity. A decision about Jenkins' continued employment has not yet been made. He has been suspended without pay, and Milner said that in all probability the situation will end in Jenkins' termination, although he wanted to avoid a "knee-jerk reaction." Charges could be brought against additional officers-as- well. That will be subject of a grand jury hearing convened this week in Jacksonville' Milner said he knew of officers and inmates who have been. called to testify, but he has not been called. Although his office has been silent so far regarding the investigation, Milner . announced that an FBI probe into allegations of abuse at the jail has been ongoing since October oflastyear. Complaints were re-ivied-by- the FBI from former inmates and their families, and the investigation has included' reviews of documents and video tapes kept by the sheriff's office. Milner said it was his own request that the FBI investigate See JAIL, p. 2A 'Oaks' may lead to more developments By MARK J. CRAWFORD Telegraph Staff Writer 'Thenew Whispering Oak's apartment complex on SR-100 in Starke may be a first glimpse at one or more housing complexes to come, according to owner Becky Edwards. While she said it's good to see the project finally realized, for a developer the completion df one project is really just the beginning of the next. "It's nice to have it done, but now "tIitff" 'done 'I ha.e to move on' to something else," said Edwards, who along with her partners worked on Whispering Oaks for four years. One thing she and her partners have realized about Starke through the completion of this project is that there are actually a lot of overqualified people whose income would e\.ludLit nile.m tf. li'.,in. in tile new apartment complex. This has led to talk of acquiring additional land to develop apartments ,for moderate-income residents. It won't necessarily be a new phase of Whispering Oaks, but they are considering purchasing additional property adjacent to the new complex. "There's plenty of people out there that.t v.nt apartments, the\ just don't qualify for our program. They make too much money," Edwards said. Whispering Oaks is considered an affordable housing community because it was developed with housing credits through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit program, which is administered by the Florida Housing- Finance Corporation. . -According "'to' Glen Bamberger, also an owner of the complex, 13 percent of the units are set aside for those earning 30 percent of the county's median income See OAKS, p. 3A Commercial zoning request fails once again opposition in the past, but this the past, approving a the land from the Rozboras if light. He predicted a time when 3 By MARK J. CUAWUFRD Telegraph Staff Writer Craig Patterson is making another attempt to rezone property owned by George and Nancy Rozbora at the southwest corner of the intersection of US-301 and CR-18 in Hampton. The proposed change, which would reclassify the residential property as commercial intensive, has faced public time more than. 20 nearby residents turned out to an April 4 meeting of the Bradford ; ounty-Zoning _Board to speak against the rezoniig application. Once again, the zoning board sided with residents, recommending that the board of county commissioners deny Patterson's application. The county commission has been reluctant to commercialize that comer of the intersection in commercial land use change but stopping short of- actually rezoning the property for intensive commercial development.. Patterson told the zoning board he now wanted the zoning and the land use to be compatible. One issue that has upset nearby residents is lack of certainty about what would be developed at the property. Patterson, who will purchase County manager interviews set By MARK J. CRAWFORD Telegraph Staff Writer The Bradford County Commission will interview candidates for the post of county manager at 3 p.m. before its next meeting on Thursday, April 21. The candidates are: Kent Cichon, the current program and financial manager for the Seminole County Department of Planning and Management in Florida., Peter Herbert, the current county administrator in Washington County, Fla. SElly Johnson, who served as city manager of Boiling Springs Lake in North Carolina through July of last year. ,* Wendell Taylor, who held the county administrator position in Jackson County, Fla., through March of 2003. Even as it was preparing to set a date for the interviews, the commission came under fire for failing to select one ofithe five Bradford County applicants for interview. Richard Sapp, one of those rejected applicants, said it appears by the way that four of the commissioners voted that no one in Bradford County is suitable for the position. Only Chairman Doyle Thomas ranked Bradford County applicants .among his top choices, including Sapp and former Commissioner Herman ,Johnson, who encouraged the board to reestablish the manager position. "There seems to be a trend of hiring outside of our county. I don't know why," Sapp said, naming specifically the high school principal and Starke's city manager. Sapp criticized the selection process, which consisted solely of reviewing the candidates' applications and resumes. "I believe that resumes should be verified before the final selection, and I think some kind of background check, as well as a credit check if it's See MANAGE, p. 3A the zoning change is eventually allowed, said he is now 75 percent sure that a gas station and convenience store would be developed on a portion of the acreage,-adding. that he has talked to national companies about developing the remainder of the property. He said he was not at liberty to discuss which companies, however. A lot is happening at the intersection, he said, pointing to the recent addition-of a traffic all four corners of the intersection would accommodate filling stations. "If this isn't commercial property, I don't know what is," Patterson said, adding that he owns the southeast corner, which is already commercially zoned. But he called past talk of a bar or truck stop hearsay, and said that any such development would further See FAILS, p. 2A 6 involved in SR-100 crash ' A).A. .d !* '. < Aw -A if r r~ * Six vehicles were involved in a March 30 accident on SR-100 after a sand truck driven by Conrad Moore failed to stop for a school bus, according to the report from the Florida Highway Patrol.

Sgt. Dana Morgan and correctional officer Jason Clark were terminated after a review of allegations determined both had prior knowledge an inmate-on-inmate assault was going to take place but did not intervene. The incident also resulted in three inmates being charged with battery in an assault on a fourth inmate. The Clay County Sheriff's Office was originally asked to conduct an internal investigation because of Bradford County's lack of a qualified internal affairs officer. Milner asked the FBI to step in when the possibility of criminal charges being filed arose. "I wanted them to include this in their investigation. If I've got anything that we need to know that we don't have positive proof on already, I want it ferreted out right now. Let's get all the laundry out at one time, clean it-up so- this thing doesn't drag on," he said. Milner is attributing these incidents to the stressful conditions officers face at the jail, being confronted daily with abusive and threatening situations brought about by inmates. Nevertheless, he said, he and his employees want to see the investigation move forward with successful results. "While it's frustrating and embarrassing that some correctional officers cross the line in dealing with inmates, every employee with integrity wants to see this investigation completed quickly and any bad apples removed," Milner said. While it may look bad for the department, Milner was quick to stand by the reputations of most of his officers. "The overwhelming majority of officers are men and women of good moral character who do not deserve to be tainted with a broad brush because of bad decisions by a few," he said. Seniors get there first FAILS Continued from p. 1A require him to obtain a special exception. "Whatever gets put there is going to be complimentary and it's going to be beneficial to Bradford County-," Patterson said. A good number of the vehicles traveling US-301 are 'motor homes and tractor, trailers that can't be serviced in the smaller stations with 301 frontage. The county is losing revenue because of this, he said. "The little (Gate) station is a 1950's store, and things have grown a lot in 55 years, and that's why a nice, new convenience store needs to be put on that corner," Patterson said. Residents have said they were concerned about buffers between commercial and residential development, he said. As the property is currently zoned, he said .he could clear-cut the property and install 20-plus mobile homes with no buffers between new and old development at all. However, buffer requirements are built into the commercial category, he said. -"They speak of they dion~ want no growth. If you don't want no growth, people need to quit having kids. Growth's coming," Patterson said. Hampton Marshal John Hodges was the first of several to speak against the rezoning application. He didn't have to look any farther than Starke to find a reason to object to the proposed change. "The citizens of Hampton don't want that type of growth. .We've experienced that type of growth in the city of Starke, and if you look at the traffic, especially on Fridays, you can't get through the city of Starke," Hodges said. Even if you call it a convenience store, Hodges said, if the potential station services diesel engines it will be a truck stop. He raised the spectre of prostitution and other criminal activity associated with truck stops. He was also concerned about pollution runoff, saying the land west of 301 runs downhill toward Hampton Lake. Michael Davis, a lifelong Hampton resident, said that even if a gas station were 'developed today, it could be redeveloped as a bar or some other commercial enterprise in the future. He didn't agree with the need for another gas station, saying the property is six miles from one in Starke and six miles from another in Waldo. He also discussed traffic congestion. "If we continue to allow sprawl in our community and put these commercial intensive places every.five er-six-miles, froiifthe north of Starke to the Alachua County line is going to have to be 45 mph," Davis said. "If you've ever tried to go to Ocala, you know that you have to travel many miles before you can ever get back up to speed, and 301 is still a vital artery connecting I-10 to 75 in south Florida." He also said he doesn't want to see CR-18 used for access to a new development. Nor does -,he want to see--an increase ino-,> crime and noise or a decrease in safety. Others like John Thiemann addressed water quality concerns, both in terms of well water and the health of the lake. Paul Meng said that while he was never one to want to be told by anyone else what he could do with his property, he recognized that when a potential development impacts surrounding landowners, they have a right to speak out. Kimberly Crews said individuals already surpass the speed limit on CR-18, and a new commercial establishment would just add insult to injury. The board split 3-1 on the decision not to recommend the application for approval to the county commission, with Chairman Doyle White casting the dissenting vote. r r r/..

April 7,2005 TELEGRAPH Page 3A I A pool and sun deck are among the amenities at Whispering Oaks. Pinwheels and prevention 4- 4, 0 Guardian ad Litem's LaRayne Engram (center) and young men from the Union Juvenile Retention Facility placed pinwheels in front of the Bradford County Courthouse Monday to mark April as Child Abuse Prevention Month. They were assisted by Bradford County Sheriff's Office Victim Advocate Sheri Sheppard. Each of the 268 pinwheels represents a child that was abused in Bradford County, last year. Similar observances are taking place at the courthouses in Union and Alachua counties. Later that morning, the Bradford County Commission issued a proclamation recognizing this month as one in which many will be raising public awareness about child abuse and neglect and proclaiming the right of each child to grow and thrive in healthy environments, free from threats of violence and harm. A banner is also on display at Bradford High School, and a blue ribbon campaign is being held throughout local communities to show support for victims of child abuse. The goal of the Child Abuse Prevention Task Force of Bradford County is to develop strategies within the community to prevent child abuse and neglect by impacting parents and their parenting practices. According to the task force, this can be accomplished by sharing resources and information throughout the community, increasing public awareness and education, providing training, and developing needed programs and resources for families in need.

The remaining are for those earning 60 percent of the county's median income. Literature from the complex indicates rent will typically run from $578 each month for a two-bedroom apartment to $678 a month for a four-bedroom unit. Residency is income (and employment) dependent. There is an upper tier and a lower tier, Edwards explained-a minimum and maximum income level which qualifies or disqualifies applicants. "It's not as low as Section 8, for instance, and it's not as high as a market community. It's in between," she said.- Fourteen of the 120 apartments were occupied as of last Thursday, and 17 more applications were in various stages of processing. Edwards said there are stiff background checks, including criminal and credit checks, required of all potential renters. All of that helps assure the atmosphere of Whispering Oaks will remain family-friendly. So far, families and senior citizens make up the residency of the apartment complex. Mark Timmerman, who has also been involved in the project from the beginning, highlighted the safety features of Whispering Oaks, including the space between buildings, abundant lighting and gates that can only be opened with the proper code. Complexes like this serve a community purpose, Timmerman said, by providing affordable, attractive School board meets The next meeting of the Bradford County School Board will take place on Monday, April 11, at 5 p.m. at Brooker Elementary School.

It's easy to see why a family would be drawn to Whispering Oaks. There are 48 two- bedro0m apartments, 56 three-i bedroom apartments and 16 four-bedroom apartments contained in five three-story, garden-style residential buildings. All have two bathrooms, a kitchen with a frost-free refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, garbage disposal and range, central heating and air, ceiling fans, high-efficiency water heaters and a carpeted living area. Each apartment contains connections for satellite television and a washer and dryer, and there are community laundry facilities in the club house. The club house also contains a lounge- with a wide-screen television, kitchen, computer lab, fitness center and a children's room. On the grounds, residents can take advantage of the pool and sundeck, volleyball court and children's playground. A resident activity program organized by manager Kathleen Sexton will include everything from participation in property upkeep and social events to an afterschool, recreation and homework program for kids. Sexton, whose job includes everything from leasing and policy enforcement to eviction, is joined by several other staff members who will help run the complex. ENB Housing Associates of Oviedo is the development arm of BNG Partners, which acquired the land. Each development has its own partnership and ownership, Edwards said.

By MARCIA MILLER Telegraph Staff Writer Thomas White is a high school student who doesn't wear jeans and Nikes. He can't choose the latest styles off the racks or decide to have pizza for lunch instead of a hamburger. He can't go outside when he wants to. He can't play basketball when he wants to. He can't even hug his mother when he wants to. What White does at any given minute of the day is decided by someone else. He wears baggy coveralls and ugly plastic flip flops all day. Someone tells him when to get up, when to go to bed, what to eat and what to do every day of his life. White is in prison serving three years as the result of throwing one single punch. Because that single punch killed his classmate, David Baez at Ridgeview High School, White was convicted of manslaughter and sent to prison. Bradford High School and Bradford Middle School students learned White's story March 22 from a video aimed at preventing violence on school campuses. They also learned his story directly from him and his parents as they all spoke in -front of packed auditoriums several times that day. White walked down the -auditorium aisle with hands and feet shackled together. A Bradford. County deputy stood at his side at all times. White is not considered dangerous, but he has been convicted of a. serious and violent crime. That single punch changed White's life and the lives of each of his family members forever and ended Baez's life and changed the lives of each of that student's family members forever. However. Prior to that one punch. bcftfh Starke meets. The next meeting of the Starke City Commission will be Tuesday, April 19, at 7 p.m. The meeting is open to the. public, ,and an agenda is available in advance in the office of the' city clerk.

Neither student was a troublemaker and White usually made the A-B honor roll at his school. White had plans to go to college and a talented Baez had plans to attend art school. Neither student came from a poor or violent background. So what happened? . A lot of students exchange instant messages and many say things in messages they would not say in person. 'That happened in this case. Instant messages flew back and forth between several students at the school and hard feelings grew as the result of some things that were said about a girl that White liked. The exchanges between White and Baez grew more and more heated, but a large number of students at the school were aware of the disagreement. Almost everyone knew there was going to be a fight when the two met face to face. No one said anything. o..teachers, or administrators. At Bradford Middle Scool: There have been 43 fights. There were 71 students involved in those fights. SEleven of the 71 students-have been. involved in more than one fight. , 25 students were sent to short-term alternative school placement in the' Bridge - program. 46 students were suspended from school.i' At Bradford High School.:1' :, There have been 20 fights. ': : :,. Eight of those fights resulted in the police'' becoming involved. 29 students were placed in the long-term alternative school program at the Renaissance Center. ,: : 41 students were sent to short-term --; ' alternative school placement hi the Bridge :-, program. .. ,. il y . l- ;; :,: The meeting occurred. the next day. White there one punch at Baez's face. Baez went down, got up and fell down again. He never regained consciousness and after a few\ days in the hospital, he died. White went on trial and received a. .lenient sentence because Baez's mother spoke on his behalf. She said $he knew White never meant' any serious harm to her soppT but that knowledge doesn't keep her from crying almost tailN. More than a year later two families are still, suffering. Students at the school have to cope with the kno" ledge that they could have prevented their classmate's death by reporting the impending fight. Administrators and faculty members wonder if there wasn't something they could have done. As part of White's sentence, he travels to high schools and middle schools to share his story with other teenagers who may be tempted to launch that one punch that could change their- livesforever.

CRAWFORD Telegraph Staff Writer With the design phase well under way, the county is ready to begin advertising for a general contractor to construct its new public library. Rather than rely on the traditional bid process to determine which contractor is awarded the project, the Library Advisory Committee suggested that the county choose a contractor'in the same way it chose architects Spyros Drivas and Jack Hedge-by interviewing and ranking contracting firms based on their expertise. The 'county commission agreed and advertisement for proposals will begin shortly. Library board Chairman Terry Vaughan said this method of selecting a contractor, which was recommended by Duval information or to reserve your space. Your trash could be another man's treasure.

County Schools Director of Construction Jim Womack, offers several advantages. It might not result in the lowest price, but will allow the county to select the best qualified candidate to complete the unique project, Vaughan said. Vaughan is confident the county will be able to attract a higher quality construction firm with this approach. An indi idual from the chosen firm will serene as construction manager. That person will begin working with the architects immediately. "It's definitely a team and professional approach:" Vaughan said. The construction manager will scrutinize the architects' work to catch any issues that could result in change orders down the road. hhich typically cause projects to be overbudget and behind schedule. The construction manager will also guarantee the price of associate of arts programs. Please R.S V.P. by April 8 by calling (904) 964-5382 or (352) 395-5850.

Vaughan said. "It gives the countN an insurance policy that the project can be delivered on time and on budget." he said. The construction manager can, upon hiring, begin prequalif ing subcontractors and looking for areas of savings. The county will also ha e the opportunity to purchase materials directly and. as a governmental nonprofit) entity, avoid paying sales tax. Once firms have presented their proposals, the Library Advisory Board will sort the applications and decide which contractors to interview. A ranking will be made based on those interviews. Once the county commission approves the ranking, negotiations will begin with the top-ranked candidate. develops defensive driving. There are no tests.

Ocha ended his quest to die after being arrested for the strangulation of a woman who gave him a ride home from a bar. The 47-year-old man pled guilty to the Oct. 5. 1999 killing of Skjerva, 28, who was working at a convenience store. Ocha met Skjerva at a bar in Kissimmee, where he was employed engraving beer mugs. He was drunk and high on Ecstasy when she drove him home to Buenaventura Lakes and they had intercourse, according, to court documents. When Skjerva told Ocha she was going to tell her boyfriend and made fun of his anatomy. he became enraged. He made her sit in a chair and gathered some rope from his garage before strangling her three times until his arms began tiring. Then he hanged Skjerva from a kitchen door and drank a beer while she died. After hiding her body in a home entertainment system in his garage, Ocha took Skjerva's car and drove to Daytona Beach. When he was arrested for disorderly intoxication, he confessed to .killing the woman. Ocha would not let a public defender present evidence to try and avoid execution. In a letter to the Assistant Attorney General Stephen D. Ake, Ocha asked that his execution be carried out w without delays. "Sir I wish for m5 execution to come swift and unhampered." Ocha died from a lethal injection at 6-10p.m Ocha was the 60th person executed in Florida since the 1976 reinstatement of the death penalty and 'he first since May 26, when John Blackwelder was so intent on being executed that he killed a fellow inmate and pled guilty. year's fair is operating under the theme of, "Service With a Smile."

Terri Schiavo died this morning (Thursday, March 31) after having gone without food or water forl3 days. Her death was not unexpected; her feeding tube was removed for the specific reason to hasten her departure from this world. While husband ' Michael Schiavo is pleased, her parents and her siblings are grieving. Many people. share their frustration in Michael Schiavo's actions and American jurisprudence. Michael played his part in the drama quite well, posing as Dr. Jekyll during the courtship and early days of-their marriage. For the past 10 years, after receiving and spending $1.5 million in a malpractice suit, he became the epitome of Mr. Hyde, and sought her death through legal means. Some of his actions were downright mean, such as his refusal this morning to allow the Schindlers to be with their daughter as she died. The American court system, eager to prove .its independence, threw out ethics and precedence in accepting Michael's statement that Terri had said in his presence that she would not want to live if hope were gone. That statement is hearsay evidence and is not acceptable in criminal cases; it should not have been accepted in the Schiavo case. Several questions haunt me. When did the United States begin condemning people to death for becoming unproductive? Thousands of people in homes, institutions and prisons are being kept alive with public monies, so how does one more person on the roll harm anyone? While alive, even though comatose, she brought a degree of pleasure to her parents and siblings. Why break their hearts and cause them further grief just to prove the courts are subservient to no one? The courts, at all levels, are essential to our nation's well-being, and need to function without fear or favor, but recent decisions have bruised the fabric of our lives. The courts should restrict their findings to a narrow range of truth and fairness and refrain from legislation by fiat. They should have listened to Mama.

Deborah Sperlich is a highly trained and prestigious voice teacher, a member of the Music Teachers' National Association and the National Association of Teachers of 'Singing, both of which have strict codes of ethics. To break these codes would cause her to be removed from membership in these organizations. She would never do this. Even if she would, our little county contest is not Nearly important enough for her to jeopardize not only her career, but her considerable reputation as one of the best voice teachers, not only in this state, but in the entire southeast region, and it is incredibly arrogant to think so. Your readers need to be careful of the accusations they make, which could be considered legally libelous. There seems to be a lot of ignorance about what constitutes, a trained, professional singer. It does not mean you can only sing or judge opera or theater. I train my students in the difference between classical, jazz, pop, and theater including the differences between pre-1960's theater and post-1960's theater all of which require different techniques in placement, tone, and diction, among other things. Judges from the University of Florida with no less than a master's degree know how to tell the difference and judge accordingly. They knew they were not judging opera auditions, but a small town pop- singing contest. Lauren did not sing opera. I helped, her with "On My Own" from Les Miserables, a post-1960's musical done in pop style. It is a difficult song, but not operatic in the least. Anyone who thinks otherwise is mistaken. Yes, Deborah Sperlich has heard Lauren sing before. She and I take our students to the same competitions. I have heard hers sing, too. Sometimes her students win, sometimes, my students win, sometimes someone else's students win. That is a fact of life with competitions - sometimes you lose. I tell my students that I expect there to be mature about it,, not whine or blame the judges. If they can't take it, they should not compete. In the paper it was stated that Lauren had an unfair advantage because she had training, -and the judges were trained. So it's not fair to have spent years of time, money and energy to study something seriously? If what this county wants is a competition for untrained singers using untrained judges, then please be sure to label it that way in the future.

CRAWFORD Telegraph Staff Writer The Bradford County Sheriff's Office notified media this week that one of its own has been arrested. Jail correctional officer Terry Jenkins of Hampton was arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation Friday, April 1, following an investigation into allegations that Jenkins unnecessarily struck an inmate. Jenkins is said to have isolated the inmate, then hit him in the face and kicked him in the torso. The arresting agents took Jenkins to Jacksonville where he was ,later released on a $25,000 bond from the federal courthouse. Jenkins has worked part time for the Bradford County Jail since 2001 and full time for the Florida Department of Corrections since 1995. Court records indicate the inmate, with a criminal history of multiple convictions that include aggravated battery, burglary and kidnapping, sustained a "large black eye." Outside of the FBI, this seems to be all. that is known about the inmate. Even Sheriff Bob Milner said he didn't know the inmate's identity. A decision about Jenkins' continued employment has not yet been made. He has been suspended without pay, and Milner said that in all probability the situation will end in Jenkins' termination, although.he wanted to avoid a "knee-jerk reaction." Charges could be brought against additional officers as well. That will be subject of a grand jury hearing convened this week in' Jacksonville. Milner said he knew of officers and inmates who have been called to testify, but he has not been called. Although his office has been silent so far regarding the investigation, Milner announced that an FBI probe into allegations of abuse at the jail has been ongoing since October of last year. Complaints were received by the FBI from former inmates and their families, and the investigation has included reviews of documents and video tapes kept by the sheriff's office. Milner said it was his own' request that the FBI investigate another incident at the jail that resulted in the firing of two veteran correctional officers earlier this year. Sgt. Dana Morgan and correctional officer Jason Clark were terminated after a review of allegations determined both had prior knowledge an inmate-on-inmate assault was going to take place but did not intervene. The incident also resulted in three inmates being charged with battery in an assault on a fourth inmate. The Clay County Sheriff's Office was originally asked to conduct an internal investigation because. of Bradford County's lack of a qualified internal affairs officer. Milner asked the FBI to step in when the possibility of criminal charges being filed arose. "'I wanted them to include this in their investigation. if I've got anything that we need to know that we don't have positive proof on already, I want it ferreted out right now. Let's get all the laundry out at one time, clean it up so this thing doesn't drag on," he said. Milner is attributing these incidents to the stressful conditions officers face at the jail, being confronted daily with abusive and threatening situations brought about by inmates. Nevertheless, he said, he and his employees want to see the investigation move forward with successful results. "While it's frustrating and embarrassing that some correctional officers cross the line in dealing with inmates, every employee with integrity wants to see this investigation completed quickly and any bad apples removed," Milner said. While it may look bad for the department, Milner was quick to stand by the reputations.of most of his officers. "The overwhelming majority of officers are men and women of good moral character who do' not deserve to be tainted with a broad brush because of bad decisions by a few," he said. Humility leads to strength and not to weakness. It is the highest form of self-respect to admit mistakes and to make amends for them. -John J.

With the approach of drier weather during the next couple of months, University of Florida forestry experts warn that many areas of the state could experience a severe fire season in areas hit hard by the 2004 hurricanes. Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne damaged or destroyed more than 7 million acres of forest in 34 counties, creating conditions on the ground that could fuel wildfires that are more intense and widespread, said Richard Williams, an associate'professor of forestry with UF's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, or UF/IFAS. "Of course, it all depends on the weather as we enter the usual dry period between April and June," Williams said. "The reason we are so concerned about fires this year is that the storms added tons of trees, limbs, pine needles and leaves that are now on or close to the forest floor." Some trees were knocked down by the storms while others are broken or bent over so that the entire crown area is witliih easy reach. of a fire burning on the forest floor. "With all this added fuel, we expect that fires will bur hotter than in other years,", he said., Williams, based at UF's West Florida Research and Education Center in Milton, said crews have been working statewide to remove downed and broken Richard Williams, an associate professor of forestry with UF's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, says downed trees and other debris from the 2004 hurricanes create an unusually dangerous situation for forest fires during the state's dry weather season. (UF/IFAS photo by Marisol Amador) trees from forested areas, but the task is hard to complete in some forest areas because of time and resource constraints. Even small amounts of plant material on the forest floor can make fires more severe, he said. "If these forests have not been salvage-harvested by now, that additional vegetative matter will. provide .a substantial increase in fuels for wildfires." In the forests of central and north Florida, the added fuel will create greater hazards for fire fighters, Williams said. S"We are looking at some very dangerous situations if fire breaks out in these areas," he said. "In areas with many downed trees, fire fighters could get boxed in by fires with little room for escape. And to make matters more difficult, intense smoke will reduce visibility." In addition, the movement of tractors and other heavy equipment fire fighters need could be hindered by forest See FIRE, p. 12B Ads *964-6305 Classified Ad where one call does it all! 43-2261 IA Tri-County Classifieds Bradford Union.* Clay Reach over 20,500 SReaders Every Week!

Crawford too has suffered from the uncooperative weather, he said, including losing countless strawberries to a recent hailstorm. "Hail in March," he said in exasperation and disbelief, "I've never seen anything like it." Despite his own misfortune, he expressed sympathy for fellow growers whom he said were all but distraught over the situation. Growers must recoup their original growing expenses, which can run from $3,500- $4,500 an acre, by-Easter or they will be lucky if they break even by the end of the growing season, Crawford said. Unfortunately, he added, most Bradford growers have not been: able to manage that feat. Norman wearily shared- Crawford's gloomy assessment. "We'll be lucky to break even and get our money back by. season's end," said Norman. Asked whether he believed. that this year was just an unfortunate fluke and things would be better next year, Norman said that from what he has seen in recent years, he thinks that there is more to the talk of climate change than many people think. "To be honest with you, I really believe mankind is destroying itself with the way we're fouling our own nest," said Norman..

Caleb Whitfield (left) and Scott Kicklighter are pictured with two gobblers they harvested on Good Friday right before the big thunderstorm. Springtime outdoors By JOHN WHITFIELD Contributing Outdoors Editor There is great news on two related items-the water is steadily flowing back into Lake Brooklyn from Alligator Creek and, on March 29, Vince Parker caught a huge bass weighing 11 pounds, 6 ounces in Lake Brooklyn. (see accompanying photo). Congratulations, Vince. That was a beautiful fish-that largemouth could have easily swallowed a softball. Most of us around Keystone haven't seen many bass at all from either Lake Brooklyn or Little Lake Brooklyn since the water went. down during the previous droughts. It is encouraging to see things happening again. Tommy Fowler's bass Tommy Fowler, a 15-year- old -Keystone Heights:-Hig.h- School student, caught a really nice 10-pound bass on March 28. Sabrina Williams, Tommy's mother, related that Tommy caught his fish on a wild shiner while fishing from a paddleboat around 5 p.m. that evening. He was fishing in a private, spring- fed pond in Clay County. The bass was 26 inches long and Tommy is having it mounted. Way to go, Tommy. Spring gobblers On Good Friday, both Scott Kicklighter and Caleb Whitfield harvested nice spring gobblers. According to Scott, his bird was on the ground by about 6:30 and weighed 19 pounds with a 9.5-inch beard. Scott said he saw five or six birds together, including one hen that almost landed on Scott when she flew in. Caleb's bird-his first wild turkey-weighed 20 pounds (yes, he let Scott know that his bird was a pound heavier). It was harvested at 6:42 a.m. and actually was shock-gobbled by some timely lightning and thunder-rolls several times. Caleb knew right where the bird was the whole hunt and patiently waited until the tom strutted into range at about 25 yards, right at the decoys. Caleb was hunting with his dad'on private property. The bird strutted, turned a half circle and then dropped its feathers for a curious look. Boom! And it wasn't thunder.
