Ohio man charged with providing gun that killed officers
By Andrew Welsh-Huggins
Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio —
A man was charged by
federal authorities Monday with
providing
the gun
used to kill
two Ohio
policemen,
as the ofﬁcers’ bodMorelli
ies were
escorted
in a procession
to funeral
homes
in the
suburban
commuJoering
nity they
served.
Gerald Lawson, 30, of
suburban Cleveland, is
accused of buying the
handgun for shooting
suspect Quentin Smith
last summer in the
Cleveland area.
Smith gave Lawson
the money to buy the
gun along with $100 for
completing the transaction, according to a
criminal complaint ﬁled
against Lawson in federal court Monday.
It was not clear
whether a lawyer had
been appointed yet for
Lawson. He was due in
federal court Monday
afternoon.
As a felon convicted
previously of burglary,
Smith was prevented
from having a weapon.
Lawson and Smith
were longtime friends,

and Lawson knew
Smith
couldn’t
have a
weapon,
authoriSmith
ties said.
A social
media post by Lawson
after Saturday’s shooting “referenced the
long-standing friendship between the two,”
according to the complaint by Teresa Petit,
an agent with the federal Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives.
Westerville police
ofﬁcers Eric Joering, 39,
and Anthony Morelli,
54, were responding to
a hang-up 911 call at
Smith’s townhome Saturday when they were
shot, police say. Smith
was also wounded and
remained hospitalized.
Westerville police had
gone to Smith’s townhome where he lived
with his wife, Candace,
for domestic disputes
three times since September of last year, and
neighbors said they
frequently argued and
fought.
Smith, 30, is charged
with two preliminary
counts of aggravated
murder. He could be
indicted on formal charges including the possibility of a death sentence
because the victims were
police ofﬁcers killed in
the line of duty, said
Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O’Brien.

Sam Greene | The Cincinnati Enquirer

Mourners gather and leave flowers on a police cruiser parked in front of City Hall on Sunday in Westerville, Ohio. Westerville police
officers Anthony Morelli and Eric Joering were killed in the line of duty Saturday when a suspect opened fire on them as they responded
to a call at a residence.

Municipal court
records didn’t show an
attorney for Smith.
The lawyer who represents Smith and his wife
in a bankruptcy case
said he is shocked by the
news.
Smith was cooperative,
polite and personable
during meetings about
his case, Mark Herder, a
Columbus attorney, told
The Associated Press on
Monday.
There was “never anything that really jumped
off the page, or would
give anyone a sense of
high alert as to any vio-

lent disposition or tendencies,” Herder said.
Smith and his wife
owed nearly $120,000
at the time of bankruptcy ﬁling last summer, records said. They
listed a gun among their
property, though not the
one allegedly used in the
shootings, the couple’s
bankruptcy ﬁling said.
The federal bankruptcy system does not vet
applicants for criminal
backgrounds, and the
couple successfully completed all requirements
of the bankruptcy proceedings, Herder said.

Smith was sentenced
to three years in prison
in 2009 on a burglary
conviction with an added
enhancement of having
a gun. He left prison in
2011 and was released
from parole, called community control in Ohio,
in November 2013,
according to the Ohio
Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.
In 2011 while in
prison, Smith was
accused of beating up a
fellow inmate, punching

and kicking him while
he was on the ground,
according to disciplinary
records obtained by the
AP. Smith was punished
with 15 days in a cell
away from the prison
population, records
show.
Hundreds watched
Monday from streets
and highway overpasses
as the ofﬁcers’ bodies
were escorted to funeral
homes in suburban
Westerville, northeast of
Columbus.

Trump’s $4.4 trillion budget moves deficit higher Help Right Here
�:521*)8/�'($7+
WASHINGTON (AP)
— President Donald
Trump unveiled a $4.4
trillion budget for next
year that heralds an era
of $1 trillion-plus federal
deﬁcits and — unlike
the plan he released last
year — never comes
close to promising a balanced ledger even after
10 years.
The budget submitted
Monday shows the growing deﬁcits despite major
cuts for domestic programs, largely because of
last year’s tax overhaul,
which is projected to
cause federal tax revenue
to drop. This budget
does not yet reﬂect last
week’s two-year bipartisan $300 billion pact that
wholly rejects Trump’s
plans to slash domestic
agencies.
The president’s budget proposes dramatic
cuts to a wide range
of domestic agencies
from the Departments
of Labor and Interior to
the Environmental Protection Agency and the
National Science Founda-

tion. Unlike last year’s
submission, the 2019
Trump plan would cut
Medicare by $554 billion
over the next 10 years,
a 6 percent reduction
from projected spending,
including cuts in Medicare payments going to
hospitals and rehabilitation centers.
Presidential budgets
are often declared deadon-arrival in Congress
where lawmakers have
their own ideas about
spending priorities. But
the documents do represent the most detailed
elaboration of an administration’s priorities.
Tax revenue would
plummet by $3.7 trillion
over the 2018-27 decade
relative to last year’s
“baseline” estimates, the
budget projects. Trump
is requesting a record
$686 billion for the
Pentagon, a 13 percent
increase from the 2017
budget enacted last May.
In remarks Monday,
Trump focused on the
spending increases he
favors rather than the

deﬁcits he and other
Republicans have
pledged to reduce.
“We’re going to have
the strongest military
we’ve ever had, by far,”
Trump said. “In this
budget we took care
of the military like it’s

Also getting a boost
would be border security.
Trump’s budget includes
money to start building
65 miles of border wall
in south Texas as well as
money to bring immigration jails up to a capacity of 47,000 and add
2,000 Immigration and

employees and 750 Border Patrol agents.
The spending spree,
along with last year’s tax
cuts, has the deﬁcit moving sharply higher with
Republicans in control
of Washington. Trump’s
plan sees a 2019 deﬁcit
of $984 billion, though
$1.2 trillion is more plausible after last week’s
budget pact and $90 billion worth of disaster aid

is tacked on. That’s more

THEIR VIEW

Guess who the
government wants
to help? The airlines
Anyone who ﬂies these days knows the last
thing the airline industry needs is more favors.
You already can’t ﬁt in a seat, can’t get a meal,
and can’t take bags, change your ticket, sit where you want or even speak
Mitch
to a human being without incurring
Albom
Contributing a fee.
Yet incredibly, thanks to President
columnist
Trump’s push to get rid of regulations, the U.S. Department of Transportation asked the airline industry to suggest any
rules or regulations that it — the airline industry
— wanted to lose.
Why not ask a teenager if he wants the curfew
changed? Why not ask a bank robber if the safe
combination is too hard? Can our government
really be asking these shameless, proﬁt-soaked airlines how to make life easier?
Yep. It just did. And — what a shock! — the
airlines, according to the Wall Street Journal,
came back with hundreds of pages of suggestions.
Thank you for asking. Now that you mention it,
we’d love to get rid of those pesky passengers once
they pay for tickets … .
Unbelievable. And I’m not a person who says
“unbelievable.”
———
Remember that, since deregulation, the government is very limited in how much it can do with
airlines. The few rules in recent years stem from
the enormous complaints from customers. Yet
amongst regulations the airlines want to dump:
— Get rid of the “tarmac rule” which requires
airlines compensate passengers stranded an unreasonably long time — say, 10 hours on a runway?
— No longer have to publish on-time performance or cancellation rates.
— Get rid of the 24-hour grace period to refund
a ticket. If you typed a mistake, too bad, you pay a
penalty.
— At the same time, kill the rule that makes
airlines honor their mistakes if they publish the
wrong fares. You can’t make this stuff up.
— Lose the rule that makes airlines show the
full price for a ticket.
— Lighten the rules — and maybe allow a fee
— for wheelchair service. Wheelchair service?
Yeah. Because we all know it’s handicapped passengers who are keeping the airlines down.
It would be funny if it weren’t so outrageous.
You’d like to say, “There’s no way the government
does this — they know what ﬂying is like!”
And then you realize, the impetus comes from a
man who hasn’t ﬂown commercial in an awful long
time. It’s true, Trump once owned a small airline.
But last I looked, there’s a big difference in owning
one and ﬂying on one.
———
What a shame. This isn’t the donut business.
Flying is essential to the economy, medical care,
uniting families. There’s a reason many countries
nationalize their airlines.
But here, while trumpeting the free market,
airlines have become so insensitive and so frothat-the-mouth greedy with fees, fees and more
fees, that someone in the government has to say,
“Enough.”
This is an industry that thinks nothing of bumping you — sometimes forcibly — off a ﬂight, but
wants a $250 fee if you switch a reservation. An
industry that tells you to arrive 90 minutes before
a ﬂight, but won’t say your ﬂight is delayed until
you’re about to board. An industry that treats your
internet service like a bomb, but will charge you
20 bucks to use theirs.
Do I need to go on? Arbitrary ticket prices,
inhuman seating, devious overbooking, crew
delays and maintenance delays that not only
strand passengers, but dump them on waiting
lines that rival a new iPhone release.
It’s an industry that will shout about “historically low fares” while never broadcasting its historically high proﬁts. Last year it took in $57 billion
alone in ancillary fees. That’s $57 billion for things
they used to give you for free.
When courtesy is traded for proﬁt, that’s called
greed.
Yet the airlines have the audacity to turn in hundreds of pages of ways to make their lives easier.
And in that ﬁling, they claimed the “DOT has
strayed far from the limited scope of the statutory
mandate Congress gave it when deregulating the
airline industry nearly 40 years ago.”
Aww. Is the mean old government crimping
their freedom? It hasn’t stopped them from buying
each other up to the point that the consumer has
previous little choice of carriers. Meanwhile, for
the 35 years before they merged, American Airlines and US Air combined for $1 billion in proﬁts;
in the four years since they merged, it’s nearly $20
billion. Their CEO said he’s now banking on an
average of $5 billion in proﬁts each year and actually told the media, “I don’t think we’re ever going
to lose money again.”
Does this sound like a business that needs
relief?
So why is our government, while ignoring truly
needy factions, playing butler to an already rich,
opportunistic, overindulged industry?

How many heartbeats?
You get 144,000 heartbeats a day. What will
your next one pump into
your world?
With each beat we get
another few seconds to
create the life we want.
The pounding of our
hearts can be positive

consciously or not, to
create a goal, a dream,
an agenda or to amass a
plethora of reasons why
we can’t do what we

heart is crying out to do.
With each thump inside
our chests, we are fueled

Today’s Highlight in History
On Feb. 13, 1633, Italian astronomer Galileo
Galilei arrived in Rome
for trial before the Inquisition, accused of defending Copernican theory
that the Earth revolved
around the sun instead
of the other way around.

PROCTORVILLE, Ohio
— It wasn’t as dominant as
the repeat effort a year ago,
but eight was still more than
enough for the Blue Devils.
The Gallia Academy wrestling team landed eight individual champions and secured
its third consecutive league
title on Saturday at the 2018
Ohio Valley Conference championships held at Fairland High
School.
The Blue Devils — who
won 12 of the 14 divisions last
winter — ﬁnished the day with
ﬁve repeat champions and a

trio of ﬁrst-time honorees while
earning decisive wins over the
ﬁeld in Lawrence County.
The Blue and White secured
a 60-24 win over Fairland and
also beat Chesapeake before
knocking off Ironton by a 71-5
count.
Seniors Caleb Greenlee (113)
and Kyle Greenlee (126) both
repeated as league champions,
with Kyle also clinching his
150th career victory with the
divisional title. Juniors Jason
Stroud (106), Justin Day (132)
and Boo Pullins (182) also
repeated as OVC champions.
Junior Kenton Ramsey (120),
as well as sophomores Bronson Carter (138) and Logan

Grifﬁth (195), also came away
with their ﬁrst league crowns.
Austin Perovi (152), Kenny
Siders (160) and Hunter Terry
(285) were also runners-up in
their respective weight classes.
Todd May, in his second
season in charge at GAHS, was
also named the OVC Coach of
the Year.
“The kids fought hard and
it is cool to win three league
titles in a row,” May said following the event. “The kids
wanted to win it again and it
showed on the mat.”

BIDWELL, Ohio — If
nothing else, the Lady
Raiders saved their best
for last.
The River Valley girls
basketball team never
trailed, scored a seasonhigh in points and had
four players reach double ﬁgures while picking up its ﬁrst win of
the 2017-18 campaign
on Saturday during a
68-29 decision over visiting Point Pleasant in
Gallia County.
The Lady Raiders
(1-20) made the absolute most of their regular season ﬁnale, which
also served as Senior
Night for both Jaden
Neal and Carly Gilmore. The hosts shot 43
percent from the ﬁeld,
had eight players reach
the scoring column and
also forced 31 turnovers
while rolling to the
39-point triumph.
The Silver and Black
also snapped a pair of
longer skids with the
victory. River Valley
ended a 37-game overall
skid, with its last win
coming at Athens (4235) back on Dec. 12,
2016. The Lady Raiders last won at home
on Dec. 8, 2016, after
posting a 42-40 decision
over Wellston.
In a basketball season
ﬁlled with frustration,
RVHS coach Stephen
Roderick was pleased to
ﬁnally have the weight
of a King Kong-sized
gorilla off of his program’s back — especially headed into the
postseason.
More importantly,
the second-year mentor
was simply thrilled that
his troops were able to
have an experience like
this in their ﬁnal home
game — particularly his
two upperclassmen.
“We’ve been on the
other end of these so
many times, so it does
feel great to ﬁnally be
on the winning side,”

Point outlasts Wildcats, 55-54
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

ASHTON, W.Va. —
The big boys went to
their big boys … and it
ultimately proved to be
big.
Visiting Point Pleasant
built a 10-point lead in
the ﬁrst half, but needed
a 13-12 fourth quarter
run to hang on Friday
night for a thrilling 55-54
victory over the Hannan
boys basketball team
in a matchup of Mason
County programs.
The Big Blacks (2-15)
snapped a 13-game losing skid by utilizing their
interior size advantage,
which helped the guests
build 29-19 advantage
with 1:18 remaining in
the ﬁrst half.
The Wildcats (6-9),
however, trimmed their
halftime deﬁcit down to
eight points, then made
a furious 22-9 surge over
the next eight minutes to
secure their largest lead
of the night at 42-38 with
1:21 left in the third.
The Red and Black
rallied with four straight
points to end the third
period knotted at 42-all,
then traded 10 points
apiece en route to a
52-all contest with 1:27
left in regulation.
Point freshman Malik
Butler drilled a trifecta
with 1:07 remaining,
allowing the guests to
take a permanent lead
at 55-52. Devrick Burris
answered with two free
throws to close back to
within a point (55-54)
with 8.9 seconds left.
The Blue and White
had to commit multiple
fouls over the remainder of the game due to
Point Pleasant not being
in the bonus, but the
hosts caught a bad break
when a Point free throw
attempt rimmed out and
ended up out of bounds.
Hannan ended up
with possession of the
ball 94-feet away from
its own rim and only
two-tenths of a second

Cleveland Cavaliers’ LeBron James (23) drives past Boston
Celtics’ Jayson Tatum during the second quarter Sunday in
Boston.

Truth hurts: Cavs
beat Boston, 121-99
BOSTON (AP) — LeBron James led the
new-look Cavaliers to a blowout in Boston with
an individual performance reminiscent of the
rivalry’s heyday.
And this time, Paul Pierce was sitting courtside in street clothes, unable to do anything
about it.
With the former Celtics great waiting to see
his No. 34 raised to the Boston Garden rafters, James shook off a ﬁrst-quarter leg injury
to score 24 points with 10 assists and eight
rebounds to give Cleveland a 121-99 victory on
Sunday.
In their ﬁrst appearances since being acquired
at the trade deadline, Jordan Clarkson scored 17
points, Rodney Hood had 15, George Hill had
12 and Larry Nance Jr. scored ﬁve. The foursome practiced with the Cavs for the ﬁrst time
on Saturday.
“I know the guys that are here are very excited about this opportunity,” James said. “It’s my
job to as the leader of this team to make sure
that I acclimate the new four guys to be around
a culture that’s built around winning.”
James scored 13 in the second quarter —
eight of them during a 13-2 run that turned a
one-point deﬁcit into a double-digit lead. The
Celtics made it 64-55 on the ﬁrst basket of the
third quarter but never got within 10 again.
As the Cavaliers opened a 27-point lead midway through the fourth, the crowd began chanting “We want Paul Pierce!” But he remained
in his baseline seat, awaiting the postgame
ceremony that would raise his No. 34 to the TD
Garden rafters — the 23rd person in the history
of the NBA’s most-decorated franchise to be so
honored.
“It deﬁnitely gave me chills, especially with
LeBron out there,” Pierce told reporters afterward. “I wanted to be out there.”
The current Celtics, who have spent much of
the season in ﬁrst place in the East, could have
used him.
“Yeah, we stunk,” coach Brad Stevens said.
“But they were really good. They had a lot to do
with that.”
The Cavaliers are at Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

remained on the clock,
meaning that the Wildcats could score on a tipin with the limited time
left.
Hannan ended up getting the inbounds pass
about three-quarters of
the way down the ﬂoor,
but a legal shot attempt
was generated in time —
allowing the Big Blacks
to pick up their ﬁrst
victory of the 2018 campaign.
There were seven ties
and 18 lead changes
throughout the course
of the night, with both
teams holding leads on
nine separate occasions.
Each squad also led in
each of the four quarter
of regulation.
The Big Blacks made
twice as many ﬁeld goals
in the ﬁrst half (12-6)
as Hannan did, which
aided the guests in building a 29-21 cushion at
the break. The Wildcats,
however, made half of
their ﬁeld goals and
trifectas in the third
quarter — which led to
the 21-13 run that ended
up resulting in a 42-all tie
headed into the fourth.
Given the team’s losing
skid, youth and playing
in a spirited road environment, PPHS coach
Josh Williams noted
afterwards that it would
have been real easy for
his troops to get rattled
at some point over the
course of 32 minutes.
They didn’t … and that
was the thing that Williams was most proud of
afterwards.
“This isn’t an environment that our young
guys are used to being in,
given the county matchup and being on the road.
The biggest thing we
told them coming in was
to remain calm and keep
their heads,” Williams
said. “We knew that Hannan had some capable
pieces and that it was
going to be a game of
runs, but I’m proud of my
kids because they never
folded, they continued to
battle and they executed
the game plan over the
course of the game.

“We showed signs of
growth and maturity
tonight, and it certainly
feels good to get back
into the win column —
especially in a competitive game like this one
was. We’ll enjoy this one
for what it is now, but we
need to stay hungry and
be ready to go back to
work.”
For HHS coach Becky
Ferrell, it was a night of
heartbreak and pride all
at the same time. The
ﬁrst-year mentor noted
that her team couldn’t
have performed much
better against a sizably
larger program … but not
getting a win was a bit
of a letdown after such a
solid effort.
“For a small singleA going against a big
double-A, I thought
we played really well,”
Ferrell said. “It was a
great home atmosphere
that I think both teams
enjoyed. It was a good
game, we just came up
a little short. That’s the
tough part.”
Neither squad led by
more than a possession
in the opening frame,
which featured one tie
and seven lead changes.
Point Pleasant made a
small 3-0 run over the
ﬁnal 1:10 of the ﬁrst
to secure an 11-9 edge
through eight minutes of
play.
The Wildcats answered
with three straight points
to start the second
frame, taking their ﬁnal
ﬁrst half lead at 12-11
after a Dalton Coleman
free throw with 7:50
remaining.
Kade Oliver converted
eight points inside as
part of an 18-9 run over
the rest of the period,
allowing the Red and
Black to take a threepossession cushion into
the intermission.
Hannan went 8-of-17
from the ﬁeld in the third
quarter, with Malachi
Cade erupting for 16
points as part of a 21-13
charge that evened things
up at 42 headed into the
ﬁnale.
PPHS rallied back
from a 47-44 deﬁcit to tie
things up at 48 with 3:39
remaining, then ultimately never trailed again
after breaking away and
taking its largest fourth
quarter lead at 52-48.
Coleman managed to
cap a 4-0 run that tied
things at 52-all with 1:27
left, setting up the lategame dramatics.
Point Pleasant outrebounded the hosts by
a 36-33 overall margin,
but the Wildcats claimed
a 15-12 edge on the
offensive glass. The Big
Blacks also committed 15
of the 25 turnovers in the
contest, and HHS was
error-free during its pivotal third quarter run.
The guests made 24-of57 ﬁeld goal attempts
for 42 percent, includ-

defenders during the second
half of Friday night’s boys
basketball contest in Ashton,
W.Va.

ing a 5-of-18 effort from
three-point range for 28
percent. The Red and
Black were also 2-of-9 at
the free throw line for 22
percent.
Oliver led PPHS with
a double-double effort
of 19 points and 20
rebounds, followed by
Casey Lowery with 14
points — which included
four trifectas. Butler was
next with nine points,
seven of which came in
the fourth quarter.
Trace Derenberger
contributed eight points,
while Kyle Martin and
Hunter Bush chipped in
two points apiece. Evan
Cobb completed the winning tally with one point.
Derenberger followed
Oliver with six rebounds,
while Butler and Bush
each hauled in three caroms.
The Wildcats netted
16-of-56 shot attempts
for 29 percent, including a 6-of-22 effort from
behind the arc for 27 percent. The hosts were also
16-of-23 at the charity
stripe for 70 percent.
Cade paced HHS with
a game-high 31 points,
followed by Coleman
with a double-double
performance of 15 points
and 10 rebounds. Logan
Nibert, Matthew Qualls,
Devrick Burris and Justis
Powers-Cupp completed
the scoring with two
markers apiece.
Cade followed Coleman with seven rebounds
and Andrew Gillispie
grabbed six caroms. Nibert also hauled in four
boards in the setback.
Hannan has now lost
six consecutive decisions
to Point Pleasant in the
head-to-head series. The
Wildcats last defeated
PPHS over a decade ago
after posting a 63-56 win
at HHS back on Jan. 15,
2008.
Point Pleasant hosted
River Valley on Saturday
and returns to action
Tuesday when it hosts
Nitro at 7 p.m.
Hannan returns to the
court on Tuesday when it
travels to Gallipolis for a
non-conference matchup
with Ohio Valley Christian at 7:30 p.m.
