Jury hears testimony in Tucker case
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

POMEROY — The
jury in the case against
former corrections and
probation ofﬁcer Larry
Tucker heard from
multiple witnesses on
Wednesday and Thursday, including several of
the alleged victims in the
case.
After hearing from
one witness on Tuesday,
jurors heard from four
witnesses on Wednesday — three of them
alleged victims. The
fourth witness was the
boyfriend of one of the
female victims. As court
recessed for the evening

on Wednesday, one of the
victims was testifying.
Following direct questioning by Special Prosecutor Angela Canepa,
court recessed for the
day.
On Thursday, the
woman returned to the
stand for cross examination by Defense Attorney
Kirk McVay, as well as
follow-up questions from
Canepa.
Three other women
also testiﬁed on Thursday, two who were
alleged victims in the
case. Another was a
former Middleport Jail
inmate and was said to
have been aware of the
alleged criminal acts.

Each of the women
described the alleged
acts committed by Tucker while they were either
inmates at the Middleport Jail or being supervised by Tucker while on
probation.
According to the court
docket, a waiver of jury
was ﬁled in the case on
Tuesday regarding several of the speciﬁcations
as part of the indicted
charges against Tucker.
By signing the waiver,
Tucker waived his right
to trial by jury with
regard to the “Sexually
Violent Predatory Speciﬁcations” contained in
the indictment, rather
having the judge in the

case make the decision
regarding the speciﬁcations.
The jury of nine
women and three men,
plus two alternates, will
decide guilty or innocent
on a total of 32 charges
in the case.
Tucker, who was corrections ofﬁcer at the
Middleport Jail and a
probation ofﬁcer and
bailiff for Meigs County
Common Pleas Court,
was initially indicted by
a Meigs County Grand
Jury on May 3, 2018.
Charges in the initial
indictment include:
six counts of Sexual

POMEROY — Meigs County’s National Day of
Prayer events will begin on Sunday, with the main
ceremony set for Thursday, May 2 on the Meigs
County Courthouse steps.
The Meigs County Commissioners approved a
proclamation during last week’s regular meeting
which read as follows:
Our Nation’s motto “In God We Trust” was
not chosen lightly. It reﬂects a basic recognition
that there is a divine authority in the universe to
which this Nationa owes homage. Throughout our
history Americans have put their faith in God and
no one can doubt that we have been blessed for it.
The earliest settlers of this land came in search of
religious freedom. Landing on a desolate shoreline, they established a spiritual foundation that
has served us ever since.
It was the hard work of our people, the freedom
they enjoyed and their faith in God that built this
country and made it the envy of the world. In all

Kicking off Bicentennial at Chester Courthouse
By Erin Perkins
eperkins@aimmediamidwest.com

CHESTER — To help
kick off the Meigs County Bicentennial weekend
the Meigs County Commissioners held their
regularly scheduled meeting at Meigs County’s
ﬁrst courthouse — the
Chester Courthouse.
The commissioners in
attendance were President Tim Ihle, Randy
Smith, and Jimmy Will
along with County Clerk
and Grants Administrator Betsy Entsminger.
Ihle explained the
Chester Courthouse
was built in 1823 and
is the oldest standing
courthouse in Ohio. The
very ﬁrst Meigs County
Commission meeting
commenced on April
30, 1819. Smith read
aloud the minutes of the
inaugural meeting which
discussed bond issues of
approving ofﬁcials. Ihle
commented these are
still issues that come up
at meetings.
The commission had
a visitor from across the
river offering congratulations to Meigs County on
its bicentennial celebration — Mason County
Commission President
Rick Handley.

Commissioner Randy Smith rings the Chester Courthouse bell to officially close the meeting, those
pictured with Smith are Commission President Tim Ihle, Commissioner Jimmy Will, and Mason
County Commission President Rick Handley.

Handley, on behalf of
Mason County Commissioners including
himself, Tracy Doolittle,
and Sam Nibert, read
aloud a letter to the
Meigs County Commissioners, “On behalf of
the citizens of Mason
County, we would like
to congratulate you as
you celebrate the 200th

anniversary of Meigs
County. The Bicentennial
celebration plans detailed
in the newspaper indicate it will be a fun and
informative time for all
to celebrate the rich history that Meigs County
is today. As fellow county
commissioners, we
would also like to personally congratulate you

each individually as you
all begin to lead Meigs
County into the next 200
years of growth and prosperity.”
Mason County also
recently offered sponsorship to Meigs County in
congratulations on its
bicentennial.

It was another
vicious egg hunt
To be clear, Terry and I have never associated the
meaning of Easter with the rabbits. But, we did allow
egg hunts at the house for the boys. Terry would put
candy in the plastic eggs, and I would
include a variety of coins as a part of the
ﬁnds.
Early on, the competition between the
brothers was vicious. There was cheating. There was stealing from each other.
There was always a cacophony of fussRules were implemented to make it

as fair as possible, but these rules were

penalties imposed.
columnist
Whoever found the most eggs was
considered champion. That was the main
prize for bragging rights. Of course, each wanted a
large amount of candy. After the hunts would be over,
they would settle down and trade with each other.
The last couple of years we were not able to host
hunts because our families did not come in. But, the
two youngest planned to visit with their wives this
season, and they requested for us to have an Easter
egg hunt for them.
After Sunday lunch, the eggs were hidden throughout the yard and we made preparations to begin. I
levied very favorable rules for the girls. We even gave
the girls a very liberal head start.
But, before going out, Alexandria pulled out a sharp
edged spatula from the utensil bin, which she planned
to use to keep her husband, Micaiah, at bay. She knew
he would harass her. She planned on swatting him
with it if he got too close. I approved.
It was told that, when Micaiah got outside, he tried
to steal some of her ﬁndings. One side of the story
had it that, with one swipe of the spatula, she inadvertently cut the handles on his Wal-Mart bag. Either
that, or Jamin attacked and broke his bag. It was
never made clear what actually happened, so I am not
quite sure.
Nonetheless, his eggs fell to the ground. Rule 18
came into play that, if it is on the ground, it is legal.
Alex quickly scooped up the re-legalized eggs. At the
time, it apparently gave her the count-lead. Micaiah
got incensed, and quit the hunt.
All of my daughters-in-law are beautiful ladies, but
they can put the fear of God in you. No one tried to
bother Morgan because she was prepared to counter,
too, and she was able to collect a bounty unhindered.
In the end, it made me chuckle that we had another
vicious egg hunt.
But, it is not a laughing matter when one considers the viciousness that went on involving Jesus
Christ that ﬁrst Easter. His Cruciﬁxion was a vicious
event. His enemies wanted Him dead in the cruelest
of terms. His Resurrection was relegated to vicious
responses by those who despised the divine prediction of it. The powers-that-be ran a vicious cover up
scheme by establishing lies about it.
Anti-God and Anti-Christ viciousness remains
strong even today, which begs the question, why is it
like this? It sometimes makes me sad how strongly
opposed people are to our gracious God, to our loving
Savior, and to the people who stand for them.
One thing I am quite sure about is that it is critical that we as God’s people practice His principles
and expectation. It is imperative that we take care to
represent God and Christ the best that we can in our
daily living. We need to watch our tongues, according
to Scripture. We need to guard our actions, according to Scripture. We need to evaluate our motives,
according to Scripture. We need to treat others with
love, respect, and fairness, according to Scripture.
The religious environment may not be so vicious for
Christians if Christians were more consistent with the
expectations of the Lord. After all, inappropriate and
inconsistent representations by professing Christians
breed bitter and resentful attitudes in those who reject
God as it is.
Yes, I should have been outside monitoring the
hunting activity closely, but I was too busy sitting in
my Lazy Boy eating my secret stash of banana pudding.

CROSS WORDS

Welcome to the family
Thursday was a special
day for my family. We
welcomed a new member. Not through birth.
But through adoption.
My amazing aunt and
uncle adopted a beautiful
nine-year-old girl.
Her name is Chloe.
And I’m so happy to be
her big cousin. But as I
ponder this special day,
I can’t help but share
a message with you.
Because Chloe reminds
me of my own adoption.
Chloe left the courthouse with a new name.
A new birth certiﬁcate.
A new identity. Why?
Because someone willingly chose her. Not
because she did anything
spectacular.
And that’s my story.
You see, I’m adopted
by God. The Bible says,
“But when the right
time came, God sent his
Son, born of a woman,
subject to the law. God
sent him to buy freedom
for us who were slaves to
the law, so that he could
adopt us as his very own
children. And because
we are his children, God
has sent the Spirit of
his Son into our hearts,
prompting us to call out,
‘Abba, Father.’ Now you

A HUNGER FOR MORE

God has made a way for us to follow in life
The fact that times of
upheaval have been visited on
the earth frequently during the
long story of our planet is small
consolation to those destined
to live in the midst of such
upheavals. Nevertheless, such
seasons as these come. Furthermore, they serve as the proving
grounds for what we call faith.
When there is none, we quake
and shake with fear and angst
and tend to sink to the lowest
moral common denominator.
Terrorist attacks and wars,
hurricanes and tsunamis,
earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, famine and disease, all
reﬂect the fragility of the world
around us.
It is in no way unreasonable
for you to wonder about how to
respond to the dynamic of ﬂuidity in the world. Our circumstances are frail, our plans and
goals are brittle, and our hopes
and dreams are like mists that
disappear into nothingness
when the winds of calamity
blast their way through life.

to victimize others. These
are clearly extreme examples,
but in a more subtle way, we
do the same sorts of things if
and when we rationalize doing
something wrong based on
our circumstances. Even now,
when we allow their political
afﬁliations to overthrow basic
humanity, we have grossly
given ourselves over to worldly
priorities for life and patterns
of behavior which only slander
the name of God and spoil our
own peace and joy.
Of course, most people, most
of the time, really don’t intend
any harm in their choices
-even when choosing selﬁshly.
It’s just that when we fail to

for how we live or forget that
His promises are meant for our
good as well as His glory, we
do the harm of unplugging ourselves from abiding in a vital
relationship with Christ and
will fall and fail when calamity
comes or tragedy strikes.
It doesn’t have to be this way
though. God has made a way
for us to start over when nature

barrels down upon us with
unimaginable destruction. He
has made a way for our spirits
to remain strong even though
illness may seep into our very
bones with ﬁery ﬁngers of
pain. He has made a way for
His people to muster up courage in the face of oppression
and injustice. He has even
made a way for His people to
embrace the hope that they
have in Christ Jesus when
their beloved Christian leaders
and heroes are called home to
heaven. Whatever the need, He
has made a way. And whatever
we do, let us not neglect the
only sure hope that we have…
that of Christ Jesus!
“Do not be deceived God is
not mocked, for whatever one
sows, that will he also reap. For
the one who sows to his own
ﬂesh will from the ﬂesh reap
corruption, but the one who
sows to the Spirit will from the
Spirit reap eternal life. And let
us not grow weary of doing
good, for in due season we
will reap, if we do not give up”
(Galatians 6:7-9 ESV).

them is in the books.
The Eastern softball team snapped a three-game
losing skid in impressive fashion Wednesday
during a 12-1 decision over visiting Miller in a
Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division contest at
Don Jackson Field in Meigs County.
The host Lady Eagles (9-6, 9-4 TVC Hocking)
led wire-to-wire, pounded out 16 hits and scored
at least three runs in three of their four inning at
the plate, all while allowing only four Lady Falcons
to get within scoring position.
The Green and White secured a permanent lead
in the bottom of the ﬁrst as Kelsey Roberts singled
home Megan Maxon for a 1-0 edge, then Mollie
Maxon and Roberts also managed to score on an
error while the ball was in play from the Roberts
hit — making it a 3-0 contest.
Josie Perani provided the Purple and White’s
only run in the second with a leadoff homer to leftcenter, cutting the deﬁcit down to two.
Eastern answered by sending 10 batters to
the plate in the home half of the second, which
resulted in six runs on six hits and an error while
extending the lead out to 9-1.
Kelsey Casto reached on an error in the fourth
that allowed Baylee Haggy to score for a 10-1 contest. Megan Maxon singled in both Ally Barber
and Alexus Metheny with two away to wrap up
the 11-run triumph.
It was the ﬁrst matchup between Eastern and
Miller this season as the April 5 contest in Corning was postponed due to the home site’s ﬁeld
condition. That makeup date has still yet to be
ofﬁcially scheduled.
The Lady Eagles outhit the guests by a 16-6
overall margin and also committed only two of the
eight errors in the game. Miller stranded six runners on base, while the hosts left ﬁve on the bags.
Metheny was the winning pitcher of record
after allowing one earned run, six hits and one
walk over ﬁve innings while striking out two. Jace
Agriesti took the loss after surrendering 10 earned

RACINE, Ohio — High ﬁves.
The Southern baseball team plated ﬁve runs in
the bottom of the ﬁfth and notched its ﬁfth consecutive victory on Wednesday night during a 6-2 decision over visiting Belpre in a Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division contest at Star Mill Park in Meigs
County.
The host Tornadoes (11-4, 11-4 TVC Hocking) battled through three scoreless innings, but the Golden
Eagles secured the ﬁrst lead of the game in the fourth
as Noah Fullerton singled home Jeremiah Stitt with
two outs for a quick 1-0 cushion.
Coltin Parker and Ryan Laudermilt provided backto-back one-out singles to start the ﬁfth, then a twoout error allowed Cole Steele to reach safely while
loading the bases.
Gage Shuler received a walk that allowed Parker to
score for a tie game, then Noah Diddle doubled home
both Laudermilt and Steele for a 3-1 edge. Billy Harmon followed with a double that plated both Shuler
and Diddle for a 5-1 advantage through ﬁve complete.
An error allowed Lee Ward to score from third in
the sixth while cutting the deﬁcit down to three, but
the Purple and Gold answered with Laudermilt single
that brought in Ryan Acree to wrap up the four-run
triumph.
SHS also claimed a season sweep after posting an
11-5 victory in Washington County back on April 5.
The Tornadoes outhit the guests by a 10-8 overall
margin and both teams committed an error apiece.
BHS stranded 10 runners on base, while the hosts left
only four on the bags.
Harmon was the winning pitcher of record after
allowing two earned runs, seven hits and four walks
over six innings while striking out eight. Nick Godfrey took the loss after surrendering six runs (one
earned), 10 hits and a walk over 5.1 frames.
Laudermilt paced SHS with three hits, followed by
Parker and Diddle with two safeties apiece. Harmon,
Jensen Anderson and Logan Drummer also had a hit
each in the triumph. Diddle and Harmon produced
two RBIs apiece for Southern.
Stitt and Evan Wells led Belpre with two hits
apiece, followed by Godfrey, Eli Fullerton, Matt Bayne

Public Awareness
Safety Message
Attention: Even if you do not have natural gas service there
may be a natural gas pipeline on or near your property.
PLEASE READ THIS MESSAGE.
Natural gas is an extremely safe form of energy and is transported to industrial, commercial and residential customers
by buried pipelines. Natural gas pipelines are built and operated in accordance with State and Federal Safety Codes.
Pipelines are a reliable and safe method to transport natural gas.
Homeowners and Excavators are required by law to “call before you dig”.
Always call 811 before you dig. It is a free call and there is no cost to the
homeowner to have underground utilities located. You are required to call at
least 48 hrs. in advance of digging in Ohio and Indiana, 72 hrs in advance in
Pennsylvania. The 811 number is good everywhere. The utility companies
will mark the underground facilities with paint and flags. You are required to
hand dig test holes carefully to determine the exact location and depth of the
buried utility. Damage to natural gas lines may cause leakage resulting in a
fire or an explosion.
Natural gas has a chemical additive that gives it a familiar “rotten egg” odor; however smelling natural gas is not the
only method of detecting a gas leak. A gas leak may be indicated by observing dirt blowing on the ground, bubbling in
a water puddle or an unusual area of dead vegetation. You may also hear a hissing sound.
If you suspect a natural gas leak call 911 and the Natural Gas Emergency number below.
Gas companies work with emergency responders and state and local agencies to prevent and prepare for emergencies.
They maintain up to date operations and maintenance procedures that are made available to local and state authorities.
Gas companies are required to perform pressure tests on pipelines before they are put in service. Federal codes require
periodic leak surveys to locate leaks so they may be repaired before they become hazardous.
If you suspect the presence of carbon monoxide (CO) in your home, call 911, open windows and if necessary, leave
your residence. The presence of CO is an indication of a malfunctioning gas, propane, oil or wood-burning appliance.
It is not caused by a gas leak.
