On Monday, Christmas Ball Organizer CC Barron presented a $650 check to Joy Westin, American Legion

Post 24 Auxiliary President. The money came from ticket sales, and the Legion will put it to use immediately to help children.

“This is a really big gift,” said Westin. “This year, we are working closely with the local schools -- and this do-nation will go a long way to help alleviate hunger.” Which, along with having a really fun evening, was the Christmas Ball’s purpose. CC and Debbie and Jane and Tina at T. Miller’s Mercantile are already planning for next year -- stay tuned!

Saturday morning, parked amidst the hot rods at the baseball park car show, a very unique 1967 Scandia Camper 26’ RV. Owned by Pete and Cindy Fullerton, up from Bisbee, retired from teach-ing English and Spanish at THS. Unlike many RV res-torations, they are rebuild-ing their ‘Roadwhale’ from the inside out. So while it looks vaguely hippy-dippy on the exterior, inside you’ll find new cabinets and coun-tertops, all made as closely as possible to the original. New Lexan curved wrap-around windows above the front seats, and original

curved plexiglass front side windows.

It was made by Scandia Iron Works in Minneapolis -- a classic rolling snowbird here this month, along with our other treasured visitors from Minnesota. Unlike newer RVs, the inner cabin struc-ture is made of 1” steel hollow bars, not wood... with a thick aluminum outer skin. Scan-dia built it on a ‘67 Chevy 350 V-8 truck frame. Pete added disk brakes, power steering, a rear axle and ‘new’ wheels from a ‘73 Chevy pickup... and a huge 472 ci Cadillac V-8 engine. Flies up over Mule Pass!

How do they like it? So far, so good. New electrical and propane, and coming soon,

their first camping trip. Says Cindy, “After all this work, it actually owns us... we’ve be-come Scandia curators!”

MERRY CHRISTMAS!By Robert RandallTombstone Marshal

On Wednesday, Decem-ber 20, the Tombstone Mar-shal’s Office had a great day spreading Christmas cheer and providing presents to over ten different families in Tombstone, we were able to make all our de-liveries while the children were still in school, so the parents could surprise each of them on Christmas morning.

This has become an an-nual event for our Depart-ment, which was inspired by the generosity and car-ing of Deputy Lohse and Evidence Technician Kes-sler several years ago when they ‘adopted’ a single family for Christmas. Since then, we have been able to increase our ‘families’ with the assistance of our lo-cal merchants and citizens donations.

This year, we received an unexpected and very happy surprise from my sister, Stacy Randall who just happens to work at JAKKS Pacific toy manufacturer. The boxes just kept coming and com-ing!! We received toys, dolls, RC cars & helicopters and a

whole lot of “Star Wars” ac-tion figures which I’m sure will make so many kids hap-py this Christmas.

From all of us at the Tombstone Marshal’s Office, have a Very Merry Christ-mas and a Great New Year!!! Be safe!

On Tuesday, December 19, a prisoner transport bus com-ing into Tombstone was in-volved in a traffic accident.

According to Tombstone Marshal Randall, the pris-oner transport bus was com-ing into Tombstone when a woman in a car in front of the bus stopped in the middle Highway 80 near Camino San Rafael to check her GPS. The bus came sliding to a stop and a car behind the bus slammed into the back of the bus.

One of the occupants of the car behind the bus was transported to the hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.

According to Randall, all the prisoners on the bus claimed to be injured during the incident, however, only 4 of the prisoners were trans-ported to the hospital.

The bus was transporting prisoners from the Douglas

Prison to a prison in Tucson when the incident occurred.

The woman who caused the accident was cited for stop-ping in a roadway and the driver who rear-ended the bus was also cited for failure to control a vehicle.

In last week’s issue, The Tombstone News printed an article about a mineshaft that the city was making safe for the public.

Here is a recap: In 2003, a city employee was cleaning up an area behind the city shop buildings when he no-ticed a small opening in the ground. Public Works took their backhoe to the site and barely touched it when a mine shaft opened, creating a deep mine shaft.

In 2003, Mayor Dusty Escapule hired High Desert Masonry to build a concrete wall around the open shaft to create a wall to hold met-al grating that would keep someone from falling into the shaft, but at the same time they could actually look down into the shaft. In 2004, Mayor Escapule was defeated in the Mayor’s race and the project was put at a halt. All that was done was chain link fencing placed over the hole with some steel pipe.

Recently, it was brought to Mayor Escapule’s atten-tion that kids were sneaking through the perimeter fence and jumping on the chain link fence that was over the shaft, so the city acted.

Last week, public works employees cleaned up de-bris around the shaft and

the city hired a professional welder to place an engi-neered metal grate structure over the shaft to ensure that it will be safe for anyone who wants to walk on it and look down into the shaft.

This week, the project was completed, however, accord-ing to Mayor Escapule, the city will be keeping the fence up around the mineshaft un-

til after the holidays so Public Works can do some adequate landscaping around the metal grate.

According to Mayor Escapule, this shaft was mart of the “Way-Up Mine” which was one of the mines operat-ing during the silver boom of Tombstone.

The mineshaft is expected to be open to the public after the holidays.

TUCSON - Attorney General Mark Brnovich an-nounced a Tucson jury took a little over two hours to con-vict Supranom “Addy” Klos of stealing from a 94-year-old vulnerable adult with de-mentia. Klos gambled away $300,000 in 4 months which was most of the victim’s life savings.

Klos was the victim’s hair stylist and cultivated a friend-ship with the victim and her husband more than 20 years ago. Th e victim’s husband died in 2011 and eventually Klos was given power of at-torney.

In 2014, Klos began un-lawfully using the power of

attorney to rapidly deplete the victim’s account. In addi-tion to gambling, the victim’s savings were used to buy Klos a new car and dental implants. Th e bank notifi ed law enforcement after large amounts of money were being transferred out of the victim’s savings account.

Klos was found guilty of 1 count of Fraudulent Schemes, 3 counts of Th eft, 1 count of Fraudulent Use of a Credit Card, and 1 count of Unlaw-ful Use of Power of Attorney.

Klos will be sentenced at a later date and faces 4 years in prison at minimum. She was taken into custody after the verdict.

Fraud committed against vulnerable adults has a great impact on the victims. Stud-ies show 1 in 6 vulnerable adults will be victimized and lose 1/3 or more of their as-sets. Research also indicates that elderly victims of exploi-tation can lose 2 to 3 years off of their life expectancy due to the emotional impact. A court-appointed guardian is assisting the victim to ensure her safety and well-being.

Cochise County Gov.

Residents in an unincorpo-rated area of Huachuca City will keep their Internet and cell phone services following the approval of a replacement communications tower by the Cochise County Planning & Zoning Commission.

Home owners expressed concerns about losing what they described as their con-nection to the outside world after Fort Huachuca initial-ly opposed approval of the Special Use Permit due to air traffi c safety concerns.

However, after applicant Eric Bueschel said he was willing to place a Federal Aviation Administration approved light on the 70-foot tower, so that it can be more easily identifi ed by pilots, the Fort’s representa-

tives withdrew their objec-tion.

At its monthly meeting on Wednesday, the commission heard Bueschel inherited a tower after purchasing prop-erty on E. Adams Road, Huachuca City, earlier this year. It was erected by the former owner and provided Internet service for the sur-rounding neighborhood.

Th e tower collapsed dur-ing a storm in August and when Bueschel contacted the County’s Development Services Department to re-place it, it was discovered no permits had been obtained by the previous owner.

Following Bueschel’s sub-mission of the Special Use Permit, Development Ser-vices received several letters and emails of support from local residents, with some

stating they relied on the Internet service for their home-based businesses and had no viable alternative due to the rural nature of the area.

Th e application was also supported by Steve Clark, owner of Sierra Vista-based Clark Information Systems, who installed a smaller, temporary tower following the storm to return Inter-net service to the neighbor-hood. He will continue to meet that need through the new tower.

Carol Thompson, Fort Huachuca’s Airfi eld & Air-space Manager, said the mili-tary installation was unaware the previous tower had exist-ed and objected to its replace-ment because of concerns with airspace encroachment.

Bueschel’s property sits

outside of the post’s Hubbard Landing Zone, used for UAV and pilot training, but lies in the fl ight path of aircraft, she said.

“We’re talking about fl ight safety,” she said. “We under-stand the criticality of the In-ternet service, but it’s a con-cern for the people that fl y at Fort Huachuca.”

Deputy Garrison Com-mander Christopher Fer-ris said the Fort was willing to work out a solution with Bueschel and suggested a light could fi x the air safety problem.

“We want to see if we can come to a mitigating strategy that will allow them to have communications and for us to be able to see the tower,” he said.

After Th ompson confi rmed the light would be acceptable, the commission unanimously approved the application for a Special Use Permit, on con-dition an FAA compliant ob-struction light be installed.

Huachuca City Residents Keep Internet Service Following Planning & Zoning Commission Request

Richard Colvin Reid, com-monly known as the "Shoe Bomber", is a British terrorist arrested as the prime suspect who attempted to detonate an explosive device packed into his shoes he was wearing, while on American Airlines Flight 63 from Paris to Mi-ami on December 22, 2001. Born to a father who was a career criminal, Reid con-verted to Islam as a young man in prison after years as a petty criminal. Later he became radicalized and went to Pakistan and Afghanistan, where he trained and became a member of al-Qaeda.

On December 22, 2001, he boarded American Air-lines Flight 63 between Paris and Miami, wearing shoes packed with explo-sives, which he unsuccess-fully tried to detonate. A passenger on the f light com-plained of a smoke smell in the cabin shortly after a meal service. One flight at-tendant, Hermis Moutardier, thinking she smelled a burnt match, walked along the

aisles of the plane, trying to assess the source. A pas-senger pointed to Reid, who was sitting alone near a win-dow and attempting to light a match. Moutardier warned him that smoking was not allowed on the airplane. Reid promised to stop.

A few minutes later, Moutardier found Reid leaned over in his seat. Her attempts to get his atten-tion failed. After asking “What are you doing?” Reid grabbed at her, revealing one shoe in his lap, a fuse which led into the shoe, and a lit match. She tried grabbing Reid twice, but he pushed her to the f loor each time, and she yelled for help, and ran to get water. When an-other f light attendant, Cris-tina Jones, arrived to try to subdue him, he fought her, biting her thumb, and Moutardier threw water in his face. Several passengers worked together to sub-due Reid. They restrained him using plastic handcuff s, seatbelt extensions, leather waist belts and headphone cords. A doctor on board administered a tranquilizer to him which he found in the emergency medical kit of the airliner. The flight was immediately diverted to Lo-gan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts, the closest US airport.

Th e explosive apparently did not detonate due to the

delay in the take-off of Reid’s fl ight. The rainy weather, perhaps along with Reid’s foot perspiration, caused the fuse to be too damp to ig-nite. After landing, Reid was subsequently arrested and indicted. In 2002, Reid pleaded guilty in U.S. fed-eral court to eight federal criminal counts of terrorism, based on his attempt to de-stroy a commercial aircraft in fl ight. He was sentenced to 3 life terms plus 110 years in prison without parole and is currently being held at a su-per maximum security prison in the Colorado.

The Devil and Ben AbbotBy Ben T. TraywickWorld Renowned Author

Continued from last weekAfter examining her from

all angles for some time and snorting a little and pawing the ground, he turned to the devil and said, “Satan, I’m kind of confused and some-what overcome, but I think this situation calls for a sky pi-lot” Happily the devil turned himself into a preacher and promptly married the beauti-ful she-devil and Ben Abbot

Once the ceremony had been completed, he gathered his bride into his arms, leaped upon his horse and hit for his cabin in the hills. Once there he handed his she-devil a fry-ing pan, picked up his rifl e and started out the door.

“Whoa there, Buster,” the female said, “this is not like it was told to me. I want a honeymoon and all that goes with it”

Ben Abbot thought it over and replied, “Suits me. What’ll we do fi rst?”

Th e she-devil came close against him, her green eyes shinning and her full lips damp and red. ‘I’ll mix us some drinks to put us in the mood and we’ll let nature take its course from there,” she murmured softly.

She moved to the table and fi lled a couple of quart glasses with a concoction that Old Nick had given her especially for the occasion. Calmly eye-ing one another, Ben and the she-devil drank the devil’s potion.

“Just what I needed,” Ben Abbot said, whipping his mouth with the back of his hand. “How’s about anoth-er?”

Th at she-devil fi lled up the glasses as fast as they could empty them; she staying so-ber because she was a devil and Ben Abbot because he was as thirsty as a bug caught in a glass bottle.

As the fi ery liquor seemed to have no aff ect whatever on Ben, the she-devil summoned a line of sub-devils to bring her more potent drinks from the fi ery pits of hell whenever she caught Ben not looking.

She gave her husband sing-ing liquor, crying liquor, fi ghting liquor, loving liquor, paralytic liquor, brimstone and sulfur liquor, bad liquor, and mean liquor. Ben just downed them all and never turned a hair. By now the she-devil was growing des-perate.

Ben Abbot allowed as how

they’d been drinking her li-quor the whole wedding par-ty, and now it was about time they tried a slug of his brand. She agreed and Ben broke out a crock jug of white lightning imported from Polk County, Tennessee, deep in the Smoky Mountains.

Now the devil, confi dent in the success of the beauti-ful she-devil, had gone back to hell for the night However, he was at Ben’s cabin early the next morning.

“How’s things?” he asked Ben Abbot when he got over the shock and surprise of see-ing him standing on his own two legs.

“Terrible, just terrible,” Ben replied.

“What’s the trouble here,” asked the devil.

“Th at woman... my wife...” Ben starts then to break into great sobs while hot tears of pure alcohol streamed down his face.

“What about her?” the dev-il demanded shakily, a feeling of disaster creepin’ over him.

Ben pointed to a burned spot on the fl oor. “Th at’s all that’s left of her,” he said choking up “She was really some woman. Never seen another like her. Why, she matched me drink for drink all evening till we got to that Polk County moonshine. It tasted fi ne to me, but I guess she was just too delicate. Probably just couldn’t stand strong drink,.... poor soul.”

Ben Abbot’s eyes fi lled with tears and he choked up with emotion. In turning, his arm hit a glass half full of moon-shine and knocked it from the table. Th e clear liquid hit on the devil’s left foot Blue smoke curled up, followed by a smell of burned leather then that of hoof.

Old Nick squalled like a wounded panther and leaped high into the air holding his burned hoof. He hopped around for a few minutes, screeching and hollering un-til he lit out across the moun-tains on a bee line for hell.

Now the old timers still around this part of the coun-try remember it all like it was yesterday, and will tell you the devil has always give Ben Abbot a wide birth and never come around him again. And that is the reason you never see or hear of the devil in the vicinity of Tombstone. He took a terrible beating from Ben Abbot and he went on off to Bisbee and Benson where the pickings are easier and the folks ain’t so tough.

WASHINGTON, DC—U.S. Representative Mar-tha McSally today released the following statement in response to the President’s speech outlining his national security strategy:

“Today we heard what our country has longed to hear from a Commander-in-Chief for the past eight years: a bold, proactive strategy to keep America safe and strong in an increasingly dangerous world. I commend President Trump for taking his duty seriously and delivering a plan to Con-gress in his fi rst year—unlike the previous Administration, which ignored this legal re-quirement and only presented a national security strategy twice during two full terms in offi ce.

President Trump has al-ready been leading with the pillars of this strategy by de-stroying ISIS safe havens in Iraq and Syria, protecting our

nation’s border, and standing up to North Korea—as well as revisionist powers like China and Russia. As Chairwoman of the Border Security Sub-committee, I applaud him for rightly prioritizing regaining control of our own borders and revamping our fl awed immi-gration system. As a retired Colonel and combat pilot, I appreciate his commitment to rebuild our neglected military so we remain the best in the world. And as a member of Congress, I look forward to continuing to work with the Administration to implement the vision and strategy he outlined today.

Th is President is focus-ing with resolve on the grave threats this nation face and the importance of protecting America and our clearly-de-fi ned interests Not only is his approach refreshing for the American people, it is abso-lutely necessary.”

U.S. Rep. McSally Statement on President Trump’s National Security Strategy

TUCSON, Ariz. – Cus-toms and Border Protection offi cers at Arizona’s Port of Nogales apprehended three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national during separate in-cidents Saturday involving attempts to smuggle more than $2 million worth of heroin, cocaine and meth-amphetamine.

Offi cers working at the Dennis DeConcini crossing referred a 49-year-old Ama-do, Arizona man for further inspection of his Nissan se-dan as he attempted to cross into the U.S. A CBP narcot-ics-detection canine subse-quently alerted the vehicle’s rear seats where offi cers found more than 28 pounds of heroin, worth in excess of $490,000; more than 34 pounds of meth, worth al-most $103,000; and nearly 4 pounds of cocaine, worth close to $45,000.

Th at evening, DeConcini offi cers referred a 25-year-old Phoenix man and a 25-year-old Mexican woman for a secondary inspection of his Nissan sedan. Once again, a CBP canine’s alert led to the discovery of drugs. Of-fi cers removed more than 47 pounds of meth, valued at close to $142,000, from the vehicle’s front and rear fl oors.

A few hours later, offi cers at the DeConcini crossing discovered almost $150,000 worth of cocaine and nearly $1.3 million in heroin con-cealed in a Chevrolet truck

driven by a 19-year-old Tuc-son man.

Offi cers arrested all four subjects for narcotics smug-gling and seized their ve-hicles, along with the drugs. Th e subjects were then turned over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investi-gations.

Federal law allows offi cers to charge individuals by com-plaint, a method that allows for fi ling of charges for crimi-nal activity without inferring guilt. An individual is pre-sumed innocent unless and until competent evidence is presented to a jury that estab-lishes guilt beyond a reason-able doubt.

CBP’s Offi ce of Field Op-erations is the primary orga-nization within Homeland Security tasked with an anti-terrorism mission at our nation’s ports. CBP offi cers screen all people, vehicles and goods enter-ing the United States while facilitating the f low of le-gitimate trade and travel. Th eir mission also includes carrying out border-related duties, including narcotics interdiction, enforcing im-migration and trade laws, and protecting the nation’s food supply and agricul-ture industry from pests and diseases.U.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unifi ed border agency within the Department of Homeland Security.

BP Offi cers Seize more than $2 Million in Hard Drugs
