According to a run report from the Pomeroy Volunteer Fire Department, the department responded to a report of a one vehicle versus building crash on Mulberry Avenue at the intersection of Union Avenue. The building is Grace Gospel Church. “Upon arrival, a vehicle had went over a concrete parking divider, through an exterior wall, and into an unoccupied church. There was no entrapment and all occupants were out of the vehicle. Personnel conducted scene assessment and stabilization due to the damage at the structure. Personnel remained on-site until a wrecker removed the vehicle. Church members boarded up the church until permanent repairs can be made,” stated the report.

COLUMBUS — Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost joined federal, state and local law enforcement partners to announce the success of a statewide anti-human trafﬁcking operation. Operation Autumn Hope, coordinated through AG Yost’s Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission, encompassed more than 50 law enforcement agencies and non-government partners to break the cycle that fuels sex trafﬁcking across the state. The broad-based effort, carried out in various parts of the state simultaneously, identiﬁed four priorities: H[iYk_d]�l_Yj_ci�e\�^kcWd� trafﬁcking and referring them to social services H[Yel[h_d]�c_ii_d]�WdZ� exploited children 7ffh[^[dZ_d]�j^ei[�i[[a_d]� to have sex with a minor 7hh[ij_d]�cWb[�`e^di�i[[a_d]� to buy sex “The success of Operation Autumn Hope is measured not only in the number of arrests but in the lives that were rescued from this evil,” Yost said. “Every agency on this team looks for the day when no person is bought and sold in Ohio. Don’t buy sex in Ohio!” During the operation, the Central Ohio Human Trafﬁcking Trask Force, Columbus PACT Unit and the Cuyahoga County Human Trafﬁcking Task Force rescued 109 human trafﬁcking victims and referred them to social services. “These vulnerable members of our population usually slip through the cracks,” said Sgt. Dana Hess, director of the Central Ohio Human Trafﬁcking Task Force. “This operation highlighted the vast number of potential victims and allowed law enforcement the opportunity to make contact and link them to services.” See EF;H7J?ED�r�. �OBITUARIES/NEWS 2 Tuesday, October 27, 2020 Ohio Valley Publishing GEORGE OBITUARIES SHIRLEY LAWHORN ‘KITTY’ BOCOCK HUNTINGTON — Shirley Lawhorn “Kitty” Bocock, 86, of Huntington, W.Va., died Friday, Oct. 23, 2020, at her residence.

TODAY IN HISTORY The Associated Press Today is Tuesday, Oct. 27, the 301st day of 2020. There are 65 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History On Oct. 27, 1904, the ﬁrst rapid transit subway, the IRT, was inaugurated in New York City. On this date In 1787, the ﬁrst of the Federalist Papers, a series of essays calling for ratiﬁcation of the United States Constitution, was published. In 1858, the 26th president of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, was born in New York City. In 1941, the Chicago Daily Tribune dismissed the possibility of war with Japan, editorializing, “She cannot attack us. That is a military impossibility. Even our base at Hawaii is beyond the effective striking power of her ﬂeet.” In 1954, U.S. Air Force Col. Benjamin O. Davis Jr. was promoted to brigadier general, the ﬁrst Black ofﬁcer to achieve that rank in the USAF. Walt Disney’s ﬁrst television program, titled “Disneyland” after the yet-to-be completed theme park, premiered on ABC. In 1962, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, a U-2 reconnaissance aircraft was shot down while ﬂying over Cuba, killing the pilot, U.S. Air Force Maj. Rudolf Anderson Jr. In 1978, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin (men-AH’-kem BAY’-gihn) were named winners of the Nobel Peace Prize for their progress toward achieving a Middle East accord. In 1995, a sniper killed one soldier and wounded 18 others at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. (Paratrooper William J. Kreutzer was convicted in the shootings, and condemned to death; the sentence was later commuted to life in prison.) In 1998, Hurricane Mitch cut through the western Caribbean, pummeling coastal Honduras and Belize; the storm caused several thousand deaths in Central America in the days that followed. In 2001, in Washington, the search for deadly anthrax widened to thousands of businesses and 30 mail distribution centers. In 2004, the Boston Red Sox won their ﬁrst World Series since 1918, sweeping the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 4, 3-0. In 2005, White House counsel Harriet Miers withdrew her nomination to the Supreme Court after three weeks of brutal criticism from fellow conservatives. In 2018, a gunman shot and killed 11 congregants and wounded six others at Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue in the deadliest attack on Jews in U.S. history; authorities said the suspect, Robert Bowers, raged against Jews during and after the rampage. (Bowers, who is awaiting trial, has pleaded not guilty; prosecutors are seeking a death sentence.) Jacquelyn Martin | AP People pray to Jesus at the door of the Supreme Court in support of Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett on Monday outside the Supreme Court on Capitol Hill in Washington. GOP senators power Barrett toward high court confirmation By Lisa Mascaro AP Congressional Correspondent WASHINGTON — Overpowering Democratic opposition, Senate Republicans are set to conﬁrm Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, securing President Donald Trump’s nominee a week before Election Day and a likely conservative court majority for years to come. Trump’s choice to ﬁll the vacancy of the late liberal icon Ruth Bader Ginsburg potentially opens a new era of rulings on abortion, the Affordable Care Act and even a potential dispute over his own election. Democrats are unable to stop Monday’s outcome, Trump’s third justice to the court, as Republicans race to reshape the judiciary. Barrett is 48, and her conﬁrmation will solidify the court’s rightward tilt. Monday’s vote is the closest high court conﬁrmation ever to a presidential election, and the ﬁrst in modern times with no support from the minority party. The spiking COVID-19 crisis has hung over the proceedings. Vice President Mike Pence’s ofﬁce said Monday he would not preside at the Senate session unless his tie-breaking vote is needed after Democrats asked him to stay away when his aides tested positive for COVID-19. With Barrett’s conﬁrmation all but assured, Trump was expected to celebrate with a swearing-in event at the White House after the late-evening vote. “This is something to be really proud of and feel good about,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said during a rare weekend session Sunday ahead of voting. He scoffed at the “apocalyptic” warnings from critics that the judicial branch was becoming mired in partisan politics and declared that “they won’t be able to do much about this for a long time to come.” Pence’s presence presiding for the vote would have been expected, showcasing the Republican priority. But Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer and his leadership team said that it would not only violate virus guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, “it would also be a violation of common decency and courtesy.” Some GOP senators tested positive for the coronavirus following a Rose Garden event with Trump to announce Barrett’s nomination, but they have since said they have been cleared by their doctors from quarantine. Pence’s ofﬁce said the vice pres- ident tested negative for the virus on Monday. Democrats argued for weeks that the vote was being improperly rushed and insisted during an all-night session it should be up to the winner of the Nov. 3 election to name the nominee. However, Barrett, a federal appeals court judge from Indiana, is expected to be seated swiftly, and begin hearing cases. Speaking near midnight Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., called the vote “illegitimate” and “the last gasp of a desperate party.” Several pre-election matters are awaiting decision just a week before Election Day, and she could be a decisive vote in Republican appeals of court orders extending the deadline for absentee ballots in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. The justices also are weighing Trump’s emergency plea for the court to prevent the Manhattan District Attorney from acquiring his tax returns. And on Nov. 10, the court is expected to hear the Trumpbacked challenge to the Obama-era Affordable Care Act. Trump has said he wanted to swiftly install a ninth justice to resolve election disputes and is hopeful the justices will end the health law known as “Obamacare.” During several days of public testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Barrett was careful not to disclose how she would rule on any such cases. She presented herself as a neutral arbiter and suggested, “It’s not the law of Amy.” But her writings against abortion and a ruling on “Obamacare” show a deeply conservative thinker. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, praised the mother of seven as a role model — “a conservative woman who embraces her faith.” Republicans focused on her Catholic religion, reviving earlier Democratic questions about her beliefs. Graham said Barrett is “unabashedly pro-life, but she’s not going to apply ‘the law of Amy’ to all of us.” At the start of Trump’s presidency, McConnell engineered a Senate rules change to allow conﬁrmation by a majority of the 100 senators, rather than the 60-vote threshold traditionally needed to advance high court nominees over objections. That was an escalation of a rules change Democrats put in place to advance other court and administrative nominees under President Barack Obama. �NEWS Ohio Valley Publishing GCHD The Gallia County Health Department has reported a total of 13 deaths. “Due to the time of reporting From page 1 some initial cases have already moved to recovered/no longer is reporting 178 cases, with 12 active.

HANNIBAL, Ohio — No answer for the Pilots’ passing. The 11th-seeded Eastern football team had its postseason come to an end on Friday night at Martin Flannery Field, falling to third-seeded River 49-13 in the Region 27 quarterﬁnals, with the hosts completing 16-of-24 pass attempts for 278 yards and four touchdowns. Eastern (5-3) — which had won ﬁve straight decisions headed into play — came up with a takeaway on the ﬁrst drive of the game, as Steve Fitzgerald intercepted a pass inside the 10-yard line, and returning it to the Eagle 11. River (6-2) — which will host Shadyside in the regional semiﬁnal next Friday — got the ball back after a threeand-out and needed six plays to put points on the board.

OH-70209660 �NEWS/WEATHER 8 Tuesday, October 27, 2020 Area coordinator visits TOPS Operation From page 1 Sondra Miller, president and CEO of the Cleveland Rape Center, whose agency was part of the social services network prepared to aid the rescued victims, said: “Survivors of rape and sex trafﬁcking deserve to be believed and have access to justice. By holding offenders accountable and reducing demand for human trafﬁcking, this operation prevented many others from being harmed.” Across southern Ohio, 76 missing and exploited children cases were cleared, including 45 by physical recovery by the U.S. Marshal’s Service. Among those missing included a 15-year-old girl missing from Cleveland whose recovery linked her and other possible victims to an individual in Columbus suspected of human trafﬁcking; a 15-year-old male with two warrants who is a suspect in multiple shootings and a homicide; and a 14-year-old girl who was reported missing by the Lancaster Police Department who was recovered in Columbus within six hours of being reported missing. “My thanks to all personnel who have stepped up for this operation,” said Peter C. Tobin, U.S. Marshal for the Southern District of Ohio. “These are the same personnel who hunt down violent fugitives every day. I’m incredibly proud of them and pleased that they were able to apply those same skills to ﬁnding missing children. I know Operation Autumn Hope has made a difference in a lot of young lives.” The Mahoning Valley Human Trafﬁcking Task Force and Franklin Count Sheriff’s Ofﬁce Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force apprehended 22 individuals seeking to have sex with a minor. Those arrested and charged with felony counts of importuning, attempted unlawful sexual conduct with a minor, possession of criminal tools and other felony charges include a pastor, students, and a rehabilitation resident advisor. “These predators shamelessly target the most innocent and defenseless members of our community,” said Franklin County Sheriff Dallas Baldwin. “Operation Autumn Hope is sending a loud and clear message: We are watching, we will catch you, and we will protect our children.” In Cuyahoga, Franklin and Lucas counties, 157 men were arrested on charges of soliciting and other crimes – a component of Operation Autumn Hope focused on reducing the demand for sex. Those arrested were charged with soliciting and other charges included a ﬁreman, an attorney and a motivational speaker. “The Dublin Police Department recognizes the importance of collaborating with local, state and federal agencies in order to rid our communities of this painful exploitation of our fellow citizens,” Dublin Chief of Police Justin Páez said. “Through operations and efforts like this, we can hold people accountable as well as bring justice and support to victims of human trafﬁcking.” Courtesy of Kathy McDaniel TOPS OH#2013 recently had a visit from Southern Ohio TOPS Area Coordinator, Diane Herbert.
