Miss. couple dies in

A look at the wreck site Saturday
by Gary Lloyd
Editor
A Mississippi couple has been identified as the two people killed in a
plane crash near Clay and Trussville
on Friday.
The couple was identified as Cali
Campbell, 46, and Allan Campbell,
44, of Florence, Miss. The couple was
reportedly delivering blood samples
to UAB Hospital. The couple’s bodies
were recovered Sunday.
Officials from the National Transportation Safety Board were on the site
of Friday’s airplane crash Monday to
investigate and recover the wreckage.
Senior Air Safety Investigator Tim
Monville told FOX6 that recovery of
the wreckage could take several days
due to the hilly terrain. He said that
NTSB investigators were documenting the site as well as the wreckage and
would reconstruct the plane to make
sure it’s all accounted for. Monville
confirmed to FOX6 that vials of blood
were found at the wreck site and that
Campbell’s company, Southern Seaplanes, had been contracted to transport them.
Investigators said there was no black
box or data recorder on board the airplane. A possibly fragmented GPS receiver will be sent to Washington D.C.
for further evaluation.
The aircraft departed from JacksonEvers Airport in Jackson, Miss., and
was headed to Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport.
Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office
Chief Deputy Randy Christian said
there was a reported radio transmission
that the plane was going down but not
specific as to why. National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Peter
Knudson said Allan Campbell request-
The name of the road explains the possibility perfectly.
A fire station on Service Road in Trussville could
service a great area of the city, and quickly.
The Trussville City Council last week approved
Milam & Company clearing and grubbing the corner of Service Road and Trussville-Clay Road for
$5,475.
Mayor Gene Melton said the site, after a right-ofway is set to determine how much land is available
to build on, could be for a future fire station.
“I think we’re going to have more than enough
room for a fire station,” Melton said.
The city currently has three fire stations: Station 1
on Main Street behind Trussville City Hall, Station
2 on Roper Road and Station 3 on U.S. Highway 11

For The Tribune
A
Jefferson
County
19-year-old was convicted
Tuesday afternoon on two
sodomy charges involving
a child at a Clay daycare in
2012.
The jury, however, found

relating to three other children, including two counts

of sodomy and four counts
of sexual abuse at Momma’s
Place Christian Academy in
Clay.
Higdon, 17 at the time of
his arrest, was charged with
sexual abuse of a child less
than 12 years old and two
counts of first-degree sodomy with a victim less than
12 years old. Higdon has
been free on a $150,000
bond since his arrest in August 2012.
Sentencing for Higdon is

set for March 25. Jefferson
County Circuit Court Judge
Teresa Pulliam ordered Higdon be placed in jail to await
sentencing.
The jury had deliberated
beginning last Thursday, all
day Friday and for a couple
hours Tuesday before reaching its verdict.
Higdon is the son of a former employee at the Clay
daycare. On Aug. 18, 2012,

Pinson could change highway name tonight
by Gary Lloyd
Editor
The Pinson City Council tonight could approve a resolution
to change a stretch of Alabama
Highway 75 in city limits to
Pinson Boulevard.
The meeting is at 6:30 p.m. at
Pinson City Hall.
The city council earlier this
month proposed that the road,
from the city’s border at Saturn Lane to the intersection at
Tapawingo Road, be renamed
Pinson Boulevard. Property
owners on the highway would
be able to keep their numerical
address, though the street name
itself would be different.
This stretch of highway cur-
rently has three names in city
limits: Highway 75, Center
Point Road and Center Point
Parkway.
At the Jan. 2 city council
meeting, it was proposed that
all of that highway from Brumbeloe Drive to the Tapawingo
Road intersection be changed in
order to avoid confusion. This
inconsistency has caused con-

Greenways project could be let for bid in April
by Gary Lloyd
EN IN
Editor
D TRUSSVILLE!
The project to complete
place
yourin Trussthe greenways
ville could be let for bid in
ay orders!
April, according to Mayor
Gene Melton
In a Jan. 27 email from
Alabama Department of
Transportation pre-construction engineer Lance
Taylor to Third Division Engineer Brian Davis, Taylor said KBR had
completed a set of plans
to immediately address
the parking area of the
greenways.The Trussville
City Council in November approved of spending
$16,053 with engineering
company KBR to supervise the project.
If the project is let for
bid in April, an early
awarding of the bid will
likely occur to expedite
the contractor’s notice to
proceed.
The Civitan Park greenway project in Trussville was divided into two
jobs in November, Melton
said last year. The state is
paying 80 percent of the
project, which amounts
to more than $80,000,
Melton said.
Melton said the first job
will involve finishing the
parking at the park and
landscaping around the
Veterans Memorial monument. The second aspect
involves the rest of the
site, including linking
the greenway from Civitan Park to the Trussville
Sports Complex along the
Cahaba River.
The $1.7 million greenway project began in April

Flooding over the Civitan Bridge on May 17-18, 2013 did
not help the greenways project’s progress.
2012 and was supposed to
have been completed in
the fall of 2012. The proj-
ect has been in the works
since 1998.
The project is funded
with a federal grant and
administered by ALDOT.
The city of Trussville has
no supervisory authority
over the contractor.
Melton spent much of
last year’s Memorial Day
weekend at Civitan Park
as crews from the Alabama
Department of Transportation worked to address
the problems the Alabama
Department of Environmental Management listed
in a project status report.
Trussville could have
faced a $50,000 fine had
the problems not been corrected, which they were.
The city council in May
2013 approved of paying
Cahaba Disaster Recovery
up to $25,000 for work it
did to clear debris from the
Cahaba River on Memorial Day weekend. Melton
said at the time that about
768 bales of hay were purchased and spread around
the river at Civitan Park.
Prior to that, several
Trussville residents at a
May 2013 Trussville City
Council meeting asked
about the project’s status.
One called the area surrounding the memorial a
“disgrace.”

Trussville amnesty court Knight unopposed for
rescheduled for Feb. 26 JeffCo Commission
by Gary Lloyd
Editor
The amnesty day offered
by the Trussville Municipal Court and Trussville
Police Department has
been rescheduled for Feb.
26 beginning at 8 a.m.
The amnesty day was
originally scheduled for
last Wednesday, but wintry
weather forced the city to
postpone the event.
The amnesty day, granted by Judge Carl Cham-
blee, is for people to clear
outstanding warrants on
failure to appear, failure to
comply and bail jumping
for any of the following
offenses: Not appearing in
court on original charge;
not completing a courtordered program; or have
outstanding fines, court
costs and/or restitution or
warrants for writing a bad
check.
Defendants must pay all
outstanding fines, court
costs and/or restitution on
the amnesty day. If a court-
ordered program was not
completed, the court will
re-enroll the defendant in
the program.
Last year’s amnesty
day cleared more than 25
outstanding warrants and
closed more than 65 cases.
The one-day event collected more than $18,000
in fines and costs.
For more information,

lane from Main Street to
Parkway Drive. He said
the state already has plans
to widen the road, so all
the city has to acquire
necessary property for the
widening. Melton said the
city will need to move the
Trussville Cemetery wall
away from the road some.
Melton said the widening could happen in the
next two years.
He said some trees that
were in front of Trussville
City Hall have already
been taken down to make
room for the road’s widening.
A stretch of North
Chalkville Road from
Vann Circle to the intersection with Main Street will
eventually have a dedicated right turn lane to alleviate traffic problems.
Melton has guessed that
construction would cost
between $1 million and
$1.5 million. The right turn
lane is expected to be in
place by 2016. Part of the
project will include aligning Linden Street with the
road to the Trussville City
Board of Education Central Office.

CRASH continued from page 1
ed an Instrument Flight
Rules clearance prior to
losing contact with air
traffic controllers at about
10:18 p.m. Friday. An IFR
is usually requested when
pilots are prevented from
using their field of vision
during the flight and must
rely on instruments instead, Knudson said.
Debris from the plane
was found near Lake in the
Woods on Saturday. The
county’s helicopter spotted the debris field. The
wreckage of the plane was
discovered after an extensive air and ground search.
The area consists of very
rugged terrain. Knudson said the aircraft was
“heavily fragmented.”
The Trussville Police
Department participated
in the ground search. The
wreckage was found just
after 12:30 p.m. Saturday.
Others who assisted in the
search and recovery included Center Point Fire
& Rescue, the sheriff’s office, the sheriff’s office’s
Air Support Unit, the St.
Clair County Sheriff’s Office and the Civil Air Pa-
trol. Authorities searched
overnight on foot and with
four-wheel drive vehicles.
“The scene was on the
side of a steep mountain
side and extremely difficult to reach,” Christian
said.
Acquaintances of the
Campbells told Mississippi’s www.clarionledger.
com that Allan Campbell
was living his dream of
being a professional pilot. The report said Cali
Campbell loved to fly with
her husband.
This is the second
plane crash in the last
three months in the area.
On Thanksgiving Day, a
single-engine plane went
down near the Cahaba
Cove subdivision in Truss-
ville. Three people from
Virginia were on the plane.
There were no serious injuries.

FIRE STATION continued from page 1
near Mary Munger Road.
The Trussville Fire & Rescue administrative offices
are located in the former
Hewitt Elementary School
on Cherokee Drive.
“We have nothing on the
other side of the interstate,”
Melton said.
He said that if the fire department gets a call from
the Pilgrims Rest subdivision, near the Clay city
limits, either Station 1 or
Station 3 responds. The city
has a mutual aid agreement
with Center Point Fire &
Rescue, but its closest station is on Clay-Palmerdale
Road.
“It would be a big plus,”
Melton said of constructing a fire station on Service
Road.
Melton said the city acquired the property at the
corner of Service Road and
Trussville-Clay Road 10
to 15 years ago. With the
completion of the Husky
Parkway bridge looming,

“We’re desperate for
one,” Trussville Fire Chief
Russell Ledbetter said.
Melton said the repairing
of the Trussville-Clay Road
bridge over Interstate 59,
part of the Alabama Transportation
Rehabilitation
and Improvement Program,
must be completed before a
station could be built. The
site in the meantime could
be “prepped,” he said.
“We couldn’t have picked
a better spot for a fire station,” Melton said.
Melton said that once the

in Trussville will likely
change. Congestion will
move away from Chalkville
Mountain Road and the
downtown Trussville area.
And, as the housing market
improves, that area could
be good for development.
“That connection is huge
to the city, public services
and everybody,” he said.
“There’s no telling what
will develop in that area.
People just can’t imagine
when we make those connections how much impact
it’s going to have on the
downtown area.”

The Basement security director’s leaving scene
of accident trial rescheduled for March 14
by Gary Lloyd
Editor
The trial date for youth
ministry The Basement
security director Vince
Lovell, originally scheduled for last Friday in
Trussville, has been moved
to March 14.
Lovell is charged with
two misdemeanors stemming from an October incident in which Lovell,
according to a witness
statement, allegedly was
driving southbound and
was over the center line on
Chalkville Road in front of
The Mall when the white
Chevrolet Tahoe he was
driving, emblazoned with
“#FreePitt” logos, sideswiped a Ryder moving
truck.
Trussville police Lt. Jeff
Bridges said at the time of
the accident that the moving truck pulled over, according to the witness’
statement. According to
Lovell’s statement, Bridges
said, Lovell drove down
The Mall area, onto Parkway Drive and waited at
the Trussville Public Li-
photo via www.freepitt.com
A white Chevrolet Tahoe emblazoned with the Free Pitt hashtag in Montgomery
brary. No one showed up
at the library, according to
Lovell’s statement. Lovell
did not call police, Bridges
said. Lovell drove home
and called his insurance
company, according to his
statement, Bridges said.
“Out of nowhere, I heard
a big bang,” Lovell said
at the time. “My mirror
whipped around and hit my
driver’s window and shattered my window. When it
did, I looked up in my rear-
view mirror and I saw the
vehicle was continuing in
the opposite direction and
it didn’t stop.”
There were no injuries in
the accident.
Lovell said he took the
next left next to The Mall
and still didn’t see the vehicle. He then proceeded to
the library, where he saw a
police officer leaving and
tried to get his attention,
but to no avail.
“When I didn’t see the
vehicle any longer and I
didn’t see any other options, I drove home, which
is like a mile away,” Lovell
said. “I didn’t have my cell
phone with me. So, I came
home to get my cell phone.
I was literally there five
seconds, and my wife said,
‘I think there’s somebody
outside.’ I go outside and
the Trussville police are in
my driveway.”
Bridges said the driver of
the moving truck filed two
complaints against Lovell.
Lovell is charged under the
Section 32-10-2 and Section 32-10-1. Section 3210-2 says that the “driver of
any motor vehicle involved
in an accident resulting in
injury to or the death of
any person or damage to
any vehicle which is driven
or attended by any person
shall give his name, address and the registration
number of the vehicle he is
driving, shall upon request
exhibit his driver’s license
to the person struck or the
driver or occupant of or
person attending any motor
or other vehicle collided
with or damaged and shall
render to any person injured in such accident reasonable assistance, including the transportation of,
or the making of arrangements for the transportation
of such person to a physician or hospital for medical
or surgical treatment, if it
is apparent that such treatment is necessary or if such
transportation is requested
by the injured person.”
Section 32-10-1 states
that the “driver of any motor vehicle involved in an
accident resulting in injury
to or the death of any person, or in damage to a motor vehicle or other vehicle
which is driven or attended
by any person, shall immediately stop such vehicle at
the scene of such accident
or as close thereto as possible and shall then forthwith
return to and in every event
shall remain at the scene of
the accident until he or she
has fulfilled the requirements of Section 32-10-3.
Every such stop shall be
made without obstructing
traffic more than is necessary.”
Under Section 32-101, the state’s public safety
director “shall revoke the
driver’s license of a person
convicted under this section.”
The Basement founder
and youth evangelist Matt
Pitt remains jailed in Shelby County on a probation
revocation after his second
charge of impersonating a
peace officer.

A public forum was held
Tuesday to discuss the
potential increase. About
40 people attended last
month’s public forum.
The plan, should the vote
pass, is to renovate the
city’s original high school
in the Cahaba Project and
to build a new school near
the Magnolia Place subdivision. The schools will
likely house 400 students
each and could house as
many as 500. Both schools

students at the Paine campus currently have classes

In March 2010, Trussville residents voted overwhelmingly against a
property tax increase. That
tax proposal was to be
split between the city and
the schools and included
projects such as renovating
or rebuilding the football
stadium and renovating
the Parkway Drive school
property to relieve overcrowding at Paine Primary
and Intermediate schools.
The Radio Shack on
Chalkville Mountain Road
in Trussville was robbed at
gunpoint last Thursday.
Trussville police Lt. Jeff
Bridges said two black
males entered the store at
about 8:30 p.m. last Thursday. One brandished a
handgun, Bridges said.
Bridges said the suspects
made away with approxi-
mately $340 in cash and
four iPhones.
No other information
was immediately available.
At press time, the police
department was still investigating.

About 800 trees left to
Council to produce
‘best skilled workforce’ be given away in Clay
in Alabama
Clay City Manager Ronnie Dixon said at Tuesday’s Clay City Council
meeting that about 800
trees were still available
from the Alabama Tree
Recovery
Campaign,
sponsored by the Alabama
Forestry Commission and
the Arbor Day Foundation.
About 100 trees were
given away last week at
the City of Clay Public
Works building on ClayPalmerdale Road. Dixon
said last week’s wintry
weather was a factor in
the limited number of tree
seedlings distributed.
Clay resident Charles
Agnew got some of the
trees last week.
“I got them and they’re
standing up like the Statue
of Liberty,” he said.
The event is part of a
statewide effort to provide
seedlings to communities
affected by tornadoes in
2011 and 2012. The seedlings available included
flowering dogwood, shumard oak, eastern redbud,
blackgum and bald cypress.
Dixon said those wanting tree seedlings can call
Clay City Hall at 205-6801223.
tified that she called police
after witnessing inappropriate touching between
her son and his sister.
“I saw him touch his sister and just thought it was
curiosity,” she said. “Then
it happened again.”
The mother said that
when the second incident
occurred she asked her
son where he had learned
the behavior. The son said
Eric from the daycare had
taught him, she said.
Under cross examination, the mother said she
owed the daycare some
money, but not what she
would call a “large sum.”
Mary Beth Thomas,
clinical director of the
Prescott House Child Advocacy Center, testified
that she interviewed the
children in August 2012.
She told Gonzalez that the
interviews led to the rec-
ommendation for criminal
prosecution. Prosecutors
presented two videos on
the first day of the trial of
Thomas’ interviews with
two of the alleged victims.
In the video, the children
gave a graphic description
of the events they said took
place.

Alabama Gov. Robert
Bentley earlier this week
issued a statement on the
final passage of SB217, a
bill that creates the Alabama Workforce Council.
Bentley said one of the
recommendations of the
College and Career Ready
Task Force, created last
year, was the development
of a statewide workforce
council of business and
industry leaders who will
advise educators and colleges on the workforce
needs and the types of jobs
needed in Alabama.
“There is nothing more
important than job creation, and having a skilled
workforce is one of the
biggest components to
economic development,”
Bentley said in a statement. “This council will
ensure a continued partnership between education
and industry to produce the
best skilled workforce for
the jobs of the future.”
State Sen. Paul Bussman and Rep. Terri Collins
sponsored the bill, which
the Alabama Legislature
passed recently.
deputies received a report
that Higdon had inappropriate contact with a child
at the daycare. In the next
week, a total of three families reported similar incidents. There were originally four alleged victims,
ages 5, 5, 4 and 3.
The mother of one of the
victims called deputies after her 5-year-old son was
touching a family member
in an inappropriate manner.
When the mother asked
why, the child told her the
suspect at the daycare had
touched him that way.
Authorities said Higdon
never worked at the daycare, but had been coming there on a regular basis
and, while he was there,
was abusing the children.
Higdon’s mother was dismissed from her employment there.
Jefferson County Deputy
District Attorney Carlos
Gonzalez told jurors the
trial was about three children and their loss of in-
nocence while defense attorney Charles Salvagio
said the case was all about
“big money.” Salvagio said
the accusations came from
children of parents who
owed the daycare money
and only came after an attorney was hired to collect
the money. The mother
of one of the victims disagreed when she testified, saying she only owed
$400.
The mother of one of the
victims, a first-grader, tes-
