THE WAY THINGS WERE
ABOUT THE WEEK
OF JULY 17, 1964, completion of a new ““Adirondack
Map”” covering more than
15,000 square miles of private
and publicly owned land in
northern New York was announced by Conservation
Commissioner Harold G.
Wilm. Measuring 4.5 by 6 feet,
the multi-color, four-section
map was the first complete revision of the ““Adirondack
Map”” in more than 75 years.
About 4,000 copies were
available to the public at $6 a
set. Three years in the making, the map incorporated
many new features and was
““one of the finest map works
ever produced by the
Department,”” according to
William D. Mulholland, assistant commissioner for the
Bureau of Lands and Forests.
New features included
showing state lands other than
Forest Preserve holdings; St.
Lawrence River changes
caused by Seaway construction; county and town bound-
ary designations; up-to-date
road locations; route numbers
for U.S., state and county
highways; and the proposed
location for Interstate Route
87, The Northway.
The quiet upstate Village of
Tupper Lake, population 7,000,
would burst at the seams later
in July when more than 1,000
injured ““survivors”” of a simulated nuclear attack were taken
there for ““treatment.””
““Operation Sun Drum II,”” the
largest Civil Defense exercise
of its kind ever conducted in
New York state, would test the
state’’s facilities for caring for
injured and homeless victims of
nuclear war.
Five specialized organizations would combine skills and
resources to handle the injured
and homeless: state and local
Civil Defense units, the
Veterans Administration, II
Corps-U.S. Army, the
American Red Cross and the
Civil Air Patrol. More than
2,000 volunteers were slated to
participate, including 500 Boy
Scouts who would play the
roles of injured and homeless
survivors, and approximately
500 Civil Defense volunteers
from nearby communities.
The exercise would be
based on an assumed nuclear
attack on the United States
and Canada, with resulting
heavy casualties in New York
City, Utica, Rochester and
Buffalo. Tupper Lake, with its
433-bed Sunmount Veterans
Hospital, would be assumed to
have escaped physical damage
and would be designated as a
reception and treatment center.
Other activities planned
for the realistic three-day exercise included blood collection
by the Red Cross, the assignment of radiation detection
teams to inspect the village,
the setting up of checkpoints
and traffic control, the establishment of emergency communications and a simulated
plane crash at the waterfront.
Lt. Gov. Malcolm Wilson
had lifted the state-imposed restriction on burning and smok-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Encourage volunteers
Dear Editor,
When the tapestry of conservation
commences to be created, whether
countywide or within limited city,
town or village boundaries, the makeup or the fiber being used to complete
the task must include reliable volunteers.
Worthwhile conservation programs cannot achieve the status of
being successful by completely depending upon almost total governmental financial support. The more self-reliant conservation advocates become
in this respect the better the chances
are (with still some additional funding
from government sources) to secure
every goal they seek.
Conservation and environmental
groups that willingly work together
discover the union quickly attracts the
rank and file volunteers needed to create greater unified strength, enabling
them to meet the existing challenges.
When there is unity and honest
depiction to the needy cause that’’s
clearly evident, the average citizens
will no longer be discouraged to take
up the mantel of volunteer.

Keep boating safe
Dear Editor:
It’’s that time of the year when
many people get out and enjoy the
wonderful recreational opportunities
that exist in New York state. Our
many scenic lakes, rivers, roads and
trails are being used now more than
any other time of the year.
With the increase in traffic comes
the risk for accidents that can destroy
a vacation. Accidents are usually
caused by lack of education and training, carelessness, or operating equipment while impaired by drugs and/or
alcohol.
The United States Coast Guard reports that alcohol use was the leading
contributing factor in boating fatalities
last year. Remember the same laws for
drunk driving on land apply to driving
on the water.
Everyone who is going to operate
a boat should take a Safe Boating
Course. For NYS safe boating courses
and youth certification contact the
NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and
Historic Preservation. The NYS Safe
Boating Pledge follows.
I will assist those in need, and report any boating accident in which
I’’m involved.
I will have USCG approved life
jackets, (in correct sizes and good
condition) on board.
I will operate in a safe and careful
manner, never recklessly, and never
while impaired.
I will understand and follow the
Rules of the Road.
I will take a boating safety course.
I will carry the proper equipment
while underway.
I will understand and obey navigation aids.
I will understand and follow the
legal requirements for operating a personal watercraft.
I will remember to follow the
rules of safe boating, when pulling
skiers or tubers, skin diving, fishing or
hunting.
I will register my motorized boat

EMT classes coming
Dear Cris,
As always, our ambulance squads
are in need of EMTs. The number of
EMTs in the county is dwindling. The
town supervisors have realized this
great need and have promised to help
cover the costs of an EMT course.
We plan on having two courses in
the county. One will be in Speculator
at the Adirondack - Appalachian
Regional Emergency Medical
Services Council training room at the
Adirondack Bible Fellowship building
on Elm Lake Road and the other at the
Blue Mountain Lake Firehouse.
We anticipate holding classes two
nights a week. The specific weekdays
will be determined by the people taking the class and the instructors’’ work
schedule, whatever is most convenient
for all.
New York state regulates the
length of the course, which is 150
hours including clinical time. The
clinical time can be done in a hospital
emergency room or with an ambulance squad.
There will also be a recertification
class held simultaneously with the
EMT class. This will fulfill the need
of those who need recertification
classes.
Posters and ads are forthcoming.
Anyone interested can call the
Hamilton County Emergency
Management Office at (518) 548-6223
or me at 548-4380 to get information
or sign up for the class. We hope to
have a great turnout but, no matter,
there will be a course.

Water, sewer use rates raised
By CRISTINE MEIXNER
Express Editor
SPECULATOR - The
water and sewer use rates here
will go up a bit with the
November billings.
It’’s all part of the Village
of Speculator’’s plan to make
the Water / Wastewater
Department financially selfsufficient. When revenues fall
short the money has to come
from the General Fund.
Village Clerk Bonnie
Page told the Board of
Trustees July 8 that billing
revenues for 2012/13 covered
94 percent of water expenses
and 98 percent of sewer expenses.
Trustee Karen McComb
said, ““I’’m very glad to see the
Lake monitors
discuss training
By BILL THEILKING
Special to the Express
PISECO - Lake Pleasant
Sacandaga Association lake
monitors met at the Oxbow
Inn here Friday morning,
June 15.
Fourteen monitors were
present representing the five
bodies of water LPSA monitors:
Lake
Pleasant,
Sacandaga Lake, Fawn Lake,
Whitaker Lake and Oxbow
Lake.
The purpose of the meeting was to refresh training for
identifying invasive plant
species and share experiences
and new ideas.
LPSA ecologist and board
member Peter Tobiessen presented a training session for
the monitors including a
““live”” collection of aquatic
plants he harvested from
nearby waters. A map indicating areas inspected on each
lake was handed out.
Techniques for survey
and likely habitat for each
species were given. Typically,
lake monitors inspect a segment of shoreline several
times each season, looking for
invasive plants such as
Eurasian watermilfoil, curley
leaf pondweed and water
chestnut.
Early detection is one of
the best means of preventing
the destruction of aquatic environments.
Anyone interested in becoming a lake monitor is
asked to contact LPSA at
[email protected]. J
94 and 98 percent. It shows
we are getting there.””
The board discussed raising the base rates, but decided
to raise the use rates instead,
so people who use more water
pay more and those who conserve can save on their bills.
Rates were raised substantially as of February 2012
in an attempt to balance the
WWD budget. The current increases are by pennies.
Effective Aug. 1 the water
use rate will go up by six
cents to $5.10 per 1,000 gallons and the sewer use rate
will go up by 10 cents, to $8
per 1,000 gallons. The change
will first show up on
November bills.
In
a
Wastewater
Treatment Plant matter, Chief
Operator Florence Braunius
told the board she is going
after hazard mitigation grant
money being offered by the
state. She wants to install a
stationary generator at each of
the sewer system’’s five pump
stations for $14,000 to
$15,000 each.
The grant would cover 75
percent of the cost, and the
village’’s portion could be in
in-kind services, she said. The
application is due Aug. 1.
VILLAGE BEACH
Responding to concerns
from members of the public
who have seen people in the
water at the public beach but
no lifeguard in the chair, lifeguard Jackie Lewis said,

AURORA
Brian Bledsoe
REFLECTIONS
The northern lights put on a fantastic display, bright enough to reflect shoreline foliage in the waters of Kunjamuk Bay just south of Speculator. The source of the auroras
was an interplanetary shockwave of unknown origins that caused an intense geomagnetic storm. This storm rated close to a 7 on the Kp-Index Scale. Comparatively, a
rating of 4 on this scale is usually barely visible in the southern Adirondacks. This 15-second exposure was taken around 1:40 a.m. June 1 at the canoe put-in.

Indian Lake school buses all receive passing grades
By PETE KLEIN
Express News Staff
INDIAN LAKE - For the
second year in a row all the
buses at Indian Lake Central
School have received a 100
percent passing grade from
state bus inspectors.
The good news was delivered to the Board of Education
Tuesday, July 11, by
Transportation Supervisor
George Virgil, who said, ““We
haven’’t had any failures.””
Virgil gave much of the
credit to mechanic Andrew
Smith and the computerized
diagnostic equipment that can
pinpoint problems.
In a related item, the BOE
approved renewing the bus
storage and snow removal
agreement with the Town of
Indian Lake at the same rate
of $825 a month.
The BOE approved a policy for admitting foreign students that sets minimum language and academic standards.
Superintendent Mark
Brand believes there is a good
chance the 2013/14 school
year will be the first for which
foreign students arrive for a
year of study at Indian Lake.
Brand said one host family is confirmed and four foreign students from Europe and
Asia have expressed interest
in attending this fall.
The board is taking a
wait-and-see approach to the
possession and use of cell
phones in school by students.
Brand said, ““So far I’’m not
hearing any complaints about
cell phones being used in
classes.””
Brand and the board agree
that as long as students limit
their use of cell phones to the
cafeteria and hallways there is
no problem with them.
But Brand did make it
clear he considers study hall a
class and cell phones should
not be used there.

•• The New York State
Public High School Athletic
Association has waived a
$500 fine. The fine was imposed because the varsity softball team did not complete the
post-season schedule.
The fine was waived because the school successfully
argued the team was unable to
complete the season due to
games postponed due to
weather, which caused a con-
flict with testing.
•• Brand reported the school
would reapply for a North
Country Regional Economic
Development Council grant for
purchasing and installing a
wood pellet boiler to heat the
school.
The ILCS BOE will next
meet Tuesday, Aug. 20, starting at 7 p.m. in the cafeteria.

INDIAN LAKE - As the
Adirondack Challenge nears it
appears Gov. Andrew Cuomo
will take part in not one, but
two, white water rafting races
on the Indian River here.
Cuomo and his team will
compete in his Invitational
Whitewater Race on the
Indian River at 1 p.m. Sunday,
as previously scheduled, but
will also race the river
Monday afternoon against
New York City Mayor
Michael Bloomberg and other
New Yorkers, according to
The Times Union.
Twenty-five rafts are expected
for
Sunday’’s
Invitational Whitewater Race,
each with teams of six. The
public will not be able to
watch the actual race, but a
video of it will be played during the awards ceremony
starting at 3 p.m.
The Indian Lake Town
Board decided Monday, July
8, it to close a portion of the
Chain Lakes Road from
Saturday through Monday, to
meet ““special security measures.”” The specific section to
be closed will be determined
by law enforcement.
Supervisor Brian Wells
said, ““This will not be a total
road closure”” and would not
prevent people from going to
the transfer station or the town
beach.
Wells also reported that,
according to the latest information he had, Cuomo would
be rafting in his Invitational
Whitewater Race and New

Bloomberg would raft
Monday.
The New York Daily
News reported July 8 that
Cuomo and Bloomberg would
compete Monday, each with a
six-member team.
The town is still looking
for a place to drill water wells
to serve the hamlet of Blue
Mountain Lake.
Wells
reported
an
arrangement with Bing Faxon
to purchase land for wells in
The Woodlands development
was unsuccessful due to needing three-quarters approval of
the homeowners association
there.
But, Wells said, ““The
town is pursuing another lead
on purchasing some property
in Blue Mt. Lake for the purpose of exploratory drilled
wells.””
Wells said he has informed Susan Kennedy at the
New York State Department
of Health of the failed land
deal and has asked for an extension to June 30, 2014 for
when plans and specifications
have to be submitted to DOH.
DOH has been pushing
the town to replace the lake as
the municipal water supply
with drilled wells.
Wells reminded everyone
the deadline for expressing an
opinion on classification of
the former Finch, Pruyn lands
is July 19.

G et O g re It
Shrek the Ogre begins stomping his way through the Adirondack
Park on July 17th! He will begin his adventure at View in Old Forge,
and will then travel through the villages of Long Lake, Newcomb,
Blue Mountain, Tannery Pond, Indian Lake, Cifton-Fine, and
Tupper Lake. And kids 12 and under can see it for just $5! Specific
dates and times can be found on the show poster HERE >>>>>>>>
We were able to catch up with both Shrek and his trusty side
kick, Donkey; played by Kody Bringman and Antonio Tillman
respectively to ask them about their.
How is our version of the show different from the movie that we
grew up with?
Shrek: The movie and stage show are very similar in its
comedic styling and story arch. There are subtle differences to make
the show work better on stage but for the most part it stays true
to the basic concepts of the movie. One difference would be that
we aren’t doing the same makeup and costuming as the original
productions on broadway which closely emulated the movie.
Instead we will use slight makeup and a good imagination from the
audience to allow Shrek to be a metaphorically nasty ogre.
Donkey: I think audiences are going to love our production.
Its impossible to bring the cartoon characters from the movie
straight to the stage. So we have had to find our own way of
breathing life into this story. For me, the hardest part of doing an
adapted version of the movie has been taking a character that was
literally an animal and just the voice of an actor and finding his
body and his mannerisms and bringing that to my performance.
How would a donkey move if he did the majority of his walking on
his hind legs? What would he do with his hands? Eddie Murphy
did such an amazing job in the role and he has such an iconic voice,
so it’s hard to escape people’s expectations to see him on stage. But
being able to create a body and physical life for the character is all
mine and holds no expectations from the movie, so it’s nice.
Is your relationship anything like Shrek and Donkey’s?
Donkey: Yes, yes, yes. Kody and I have developed a really great
relationship during our employment here. And our personalities
are very different but like Shrek and Donkey they compliment each
other and somehow meet in the middle in a very beautiful way.
Kody, like Shrek, is a thinker and doesn’t mind keeping to himself,
but I ‘m the complete opposite, I’m a huge chatterbox and often cant
sit still. But even though we are different there is a respect of each
other’s differences and we have grown, like Shrek and Donkey, to
embrace that about each other. My favorite relationships in life and
onstage aren’t the ones that happen on day one, but you gradually
just fall into it and you have a friend before you even realize it.
Shrek: Shrek and Donkey have a
great relationship in the show that is
very similar to the movie. Shrek isn’t
comfortable being friends with
anyone and doesn’t ever feel like he
could ever like anyone and initially
he really is annoyed by the Donkey.
He then grows to really appreciate
and love the type of friendship that
Donkey is willing to bring to their relationship which is really
inspiring. Tony (Donkey) and I have now been roommates for a
few months and I believe we great chemistry that reads on stage.
Over the last few months we have really become close friends and
always have a great time both in and out for rehearsal. I would say
that our relationship is very similar to Shrek and Donkey in real life
because he is very high energy and fun 24/7 and I tend to be “funny
when you’re not expecting it” and more serious and calm. One
of my favorite things about our friendship is both of our work ethics
are very similar so when we have free time during the day we spend a
bunch of time running lines and discussing scenes to help with character
development.

Inlet
Sewer project is almost done;
money won to extend district
By PETE KLEIN
Express News Staff
INLET - The sewer plant
is up and running, the lateral
lines are being connected and
the restrooms at Arrowhead
Park and Inlet Town Hall went
online in time for Fourth of
July.
Bernier Carr & Associate
Engineer Matt Cooper told the
Inlet Town Board July 9, ““I
expect substantial completion
of the project by July 19.””
Because this is several
weeks later than the completion date agreed to in contracts, the board agreed to
amend the administrative
budget line and amend the
contract with Bernier Carr.
These amendments are
not expected to cause an increase in planned project
costs, but if they do, Cooper
said, they could be recouped
through penalty charges to the
contractor for taking longer
than agreed.
With the project nearing
final completion, Cooper recommended the board set a
tentative date for a ribbon cutting ceremony. The board
picked Tuesday, Sept. 17, at 3
p.m.
Although the Clean
Waters sewer project is not
quite finished, the sewer district is already slated for expansion.
The town has been notified it will receive a $70,800
grant from North Country
Regional Economic Development Council for an extension
of the wastewater district. It
will
include
Brandon
DiMartino’’s property and The
Birches and a connection in
case The Woods Inn wants to
connect to the line in the future.
The board thanked Nick

with the RED-C for the grant
funding, and CAP-21, which

VIRGINIA HOSLEY FREE LIBRARY
What’’s new at the library
By ALICE MEGARGLE
For the Express
Come check out the Virginia Hosley Free Library and see
what’’s new. We have recently added books to the mystery section.
Seven books by Henning Mankell have been added by request, joining the seven of his books already on the shelf.
Also added to the mystery section are the newest publications by J.A. Jance: ““Left For Dead,”” ““Queen of the Night,””
““Judgment Call,”” ““Deadly Stakes”” and ““Fire and Ice.””
Two recently published books by Bill O’’Reilly have been
added: ““Killing Lincoln”” and ““Killing Kennedy.”” These have
been very popular and are often checked out.
The Inspirational Fiction section has been growing with
three additional books by Karen Kinsbury: ““A Time to Dance,””
““A Time to Embrace”” and her newest, ““The Chance.””
Following the visit of author Sandra Weber to our library
we purchased six of her books to boost the Adirondack section,
including her well-liked youth book ““Two in the Wilderness.””
Our DVD section has increased due to new purchases and
donations. The latest arrivals are: ““The Impossible,”” ““Brave,””
““Rango,”” ““Up”” and ““The Best Erotic Marigold Hotel.””
The library usually shows a movie the last Monday of the
month at 6:30 p.m. on our large screen TV with free popcorn
and soda.
Donated books are always welcome. They will be added to
the shelves or used in our book sales during the Town Wide
Garage Sale the third weekend in July, Old Home Days the
first full weekend in August and the Tree Lighting and Craft
Fair the weekend after Thanksgiving.

DEC proposes fishing regulation changes
The New York State
Department of
Environmental
Conservation has proposed a number of interesting changes to freshwater fishing regulations
and is seeking angler
feedback. Here are some
By
of those proposed
RON
changes, specifically
KOLODZIEJ
those that apply
statewide or to waters in area counties.
Statewide: Increase the minimum
size for muskellunge from 30 to 40
inches and change the statewide opening date for that species from the third
Saturday in June to the last Saturday
in May.
Essex County: Increase the minimum length for lake trout in the Essex
Chain of Lakes from 18 inches to the
statewide size limit of 21 inches.
Hamilton County: Delete the special walleye and trout regulations for
Algonquin Lake.
The above represent merely a
sampling of the proposed regulation
changes, and some also refer to other
species, seasons, baitfish and other
topics. For complete information you
should go to
Deadline
http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/91959.html on the web. At that
site you’’ll find a more complete listing of all the proposed changes as
well as the rationale for each and how
to comment on them.
NUMBER 56 IS AGING
What is alleged to be the oldest
living wild black bear in the United
States is rapidly aging and is becoming frail, according to researchers.
Known simply as Number 56 because
that’’s the number on the sow’’s collar,
the Minnesota bruin is now 39 years
old and showing every bit of her age.
She was first collared in 1981 at the
age of 7.
The average age of a bear killed
by a hunter in Minnesota is less than
four, but hunters are well aware of
Number 56 and have given her a pass
many times over the years. In her lifetime she’’s had an estimated 26 cubs
but at least 80 percent of them have
not lived beyond six years of age. She
last gave birth at age 26. The average
age of a wild black bear is considered
to be about 18 years.
It’’s well known that bruins in captivity have made it to 40, but Number
56’’s age makes her a rarity among
wild bears and Minnesota Department
of Natural Resouces officials are monitoring her carefully but discretely.
She apparently has lost much of her
sight and hearing, allowing researchers to come downwind of within 10 feet of her before she becomes
aware of their presence.
They credit her longevity to a
stronger than normal wariness of humans and she’’s never been inclined to
raid garbage cans or bird feeders,
though she has been known to come
into bait piles. Baiting bears is legal in
Minnesota.
According to our DEC, the oldest
bear ever taken here in New York state
was a 42-year-old specimen taken by
a hunter in the Adirondacks. It was an
old bear, but I suspect there’’s an
equally old, or even older, bruin wandering somewhere in our mountains.
BREAKING NEWS
In last week’’s column I told you
about Horton Crossbows closing its
doors rather suddenly. Well, it’’s official —— Ten Point Crossbow
Technologies now owns Horton. What
that means for the Horton brand and
the design thereof I have no idea, but
Ten Point representatives have said
that since they in reality bought only
selected assets of the Horton
Company, and not the company itself,
Ten Point ““will not continue to service
or make any of Horton’’s products.””
However, Ten Point hopes it can create a new Horton brand some day.
Still on the subject of crossbows,
I’’m certain you’’re aware of the crossbow bill passing in the NYS Senate
but dying in the Assembly. I fear the
result may be the same next year
when it’’s reintroduced.
Regardless of whether or not you
use a crossbow for hunting, would
even consider doing so or just don’’t
care, the consequence of this failure to
pass is what concerns me. At a time
when all sportsmen need to stick together to attract the attention of a
largely unfriendly Senate, Assembly
and governor, this bill polarized
hunters into disparate factions and has
had counter-productive results.
For all intents and purposes it’’s off
the books for this year and it’’s unlikely
you’’ll see any crossbow big game
hunting this coming season. Add that
to the apparent demise of Horton, arguably one of the country’’s top crossbow manufacturers, and you can see
we’’re taking a step backward. J

Everett Joseph Wilson, Wells, passed away Thursday, July 4, following a
short illness.
Everett was born in Mayfield, NY, the son of George and Florence
(Reynolds) Wilson, and attended schools in Cranberry Creek and Mayfield. In
1943 he enlisted in the United States Navy and served with a Seabee unit in
the Pacific through World War II.
Everett married Elizabeth Stuart of Wells December 16, 1945, where they
raised their family and were life-long residents. He worked as a logger and
equipment operator before his retirement in 1988 after 14 years as Town of
Wells Highway Superintendent.
Always busy, Everett spent his retirement years mowing lawns, plowing
driveways and –– his greatest passion –– syrup-making. Much time was spent in
his sugar bush and the woods he loved.
Everett was pre-deceased by his wife Betty in 1996, his sister Evelyn and his
brother Elro. He is survived by two sons, Everett ““Joe”” Wilson (Mari) and
Patrick Wilson, both of Wells; two daughters, Barbara Wilson, Fredericksburg,
Va. and Evelyn Bonds, Culpepper, Va.; nine grandchildren; and 11
great-grandchildren.
His knowledge and friendship will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
Burial arrangements were by Northville Funeral Service Inc.
Donations in his memory may be made to Mountain Valley Hospice, 108
Steele Ave., Gloversville NY 12078.
Tillson
from page 1
Endangering the welfare
of a child is a Class A misdemeanor. A misdemeanor conviction is punishable by up to
one year in county jail.
According to District
Attorney Marsha King
Purdue, who prosecuted the
case, Tillson attempted to remove the shirt of a 15-yearold girl ““to get her in the nude
and sleep with him in his bed
at his camp, which caused the
victim to become frightened.””
The victim went to the
camp with Tillson to help him
install a new cook stove.
She testified she felt comfortable traveling to and staying alone with Tillson at his
camp because he had been her
coach, her employer and a
trusted friend of the family and
was like a father figure to her.
Her parents also testified
that they trusted Tillson.
The victim testified that
after installing the stove
Tillson took her by the hand
and led her to his bedroom.
He then pulled down the covers on his bed, took off his
shirt, turned off the lights and
pulled her shirt up.
The victim immediately
stopped the defendant and 15
minutes later demanded he
take her home to her parents.
““The victim’’s testimony was
heart-wrenching. Some of the
jurors were visibly disturbed
by what they heard,”” Purdue
said in a press release.
After an interview with a
State Police trooper Tillson
signed a written statement,
which the court ruled was admissible as evidence.
In it Tillson indicated, ““I
turned off the lights and we
were holding hands, and I
admit that there may have
been a improperly made statement, I brought her to her
room and I took off my shirt,
it was hot and sweaty, I was
still wearing my shorts, I
tugged on her shirt, were just
fooling around....””
Thereafter the defendant
spoke to an investigator and
told him, ““I did say she can
sleep with me. We were holding hands prior to getting to
the room with one bed in it...””
When asked what his intentions were Tillson responded, ““My intentions were to get
her to take her shirt off and cuddle with her through the night.””
When the investigator
asked what happened Tillson
responded, ““I raised her shirt
up, hoping to see her breast
and get her as far nude without a shirt like me.””
When the investigator
asked who made the sleeping
arrangements Tillson said,
““When I asked her if she
wanted to sleep with me, and
she said I don’’t care, I took
that as it’’s okay. I reached
over and pulled her shirt up.””
When asked why he would
pull the victim’’s shirt up,
Tillson said, ““I felt comfortable
with pulling [her] shirt up to
see where it would lead to.””
Tillson told the investigator, ““I am certainly glad looking
back, that nothing happened. I
think the biggest loss at the moment was, is, her trust.””
When Tillson testified at
his trial he refuted much of
what the statement he signed
says.
However, Purdue said, ““He
admitted that he did pull the
victim’’s shirt up. He also admitted he was joking with the victim when he asked her if she
wanted to go to bed with him.””
Tillson was remanded to
