Suspect in Home Invasion Fatally Shot
By Linda Cicoira
One suspect is dead, another is injured and
two others are believed to have fled from Sanford
Wednesday after allegedly invading a residence, according to police. No names were released at press
time Thursday but it was disclosed that the suspects
were armed.
“The man who died was found in a car at the Corner Mart in Temperanceville,” said Accomack Sher-
iff Todd Godwin. The injured suspect, a woman, was
also in the vehicle.
At about 9:50 p.m. Wednesday, a report came in
to the 911 Center of a home invasion and robbery on
Marsh Market Road, according to Lt. Gerald Gogo of
the sheriff’s office. “During the incident, two of the
suspects were shot. One is deceased, the other was
transported to a local hospital.”
“Someone (who lives) at the residence fired the
shot that caused the injuries to the suspects,” Goga
added. He said Oak Hall Rescue responded, no warrants were issued “as of yet” and the State Police are
assisting.
Goga confirmed that no one from the house was
injured.
There were five or six people in the home
when the invasion occurred, a relative said
Thursday.
Crash Kills New Church Bicyclist
By Linda Cicoira
An Accomack County man was the
second person to die in a traffic accident on the Eastern Shore this year,
according to State Police 1st Sgt. Jean
Paul N. Koushel.
The victim was Donald Allan McCall,
54, of New Church. He was riding a bicycle north on Route 679 (Fleming Road)
about three-tenths of a mile north of
Route 175, when he was hit by a vehicle
and killed around 8:20 p.m. Sunday.
Herbert Chase Haugh, 52, of New
Church was driving a northbound
2012 Dodge Ram pick-up truck,
Koushel said. “A car was approaching south and the north driver did
not see the bicyclist and struck him,”
the sergeant added. There were “no
lights on the bicycle.”
Trooper John Carmody investigated
the accident. Koushel said no charges
were made.
A spokesperson from 911 said Atlantic Fire Company and Oak Hall
Rescue responded.

Devonte Leshawn Davis, the star witness and “only source of evidence that
the commonwealth had to convict the
triggerman” of the shooting death of a
Guatemalan native in 2011 near Parksley, was released from jail Thursday.
Judge W. Revel Lewis of Accomack
Circuit Court sentenced Davis, 20, of
Airport Road in Melfa to 10 years in
prison for attempted robbery in connection with the incident, with all but time
served suspended. Davis had been in
custody for two years and two weeks.
Lewis ordered 10 years of good behavior
and 10 years of supervised probation.
The judge also wished Davis luck on his
endeavor to attend culinary school.
Although no promises were made in
exchange for his testimony, Commonwealth’s Attorney Gary R. Agar will
not be prosecuting charges of firstdegree murder, use of a firearm and
possession of a firearm by a felon that
were initially made against Davis.
“His cousin (Kevonte J. Bell, 20,
of Gaskins Road in Onancock) got 25
years based on this man’s willingness
to come before the court,” said Agar.
“We do not believe he (Davis) actually
planned on ever considering the outcome would occur … the person who
he followed is certainly out of the picture … what he does have is a very
supportive family … who told him to

Northampton Circuit Court
Accused killer Gary Aaron Coble was
granted a second mental evaluation in
Northampton Circuit Court Monday to
determine if he is fit to stand trial or
eligible to plead temporary insanity.
Judge W. Revel Lewis III agreed to
the request due to the “severity of the
charges.” Coble, 47, who’s last address
was Madison Street in Cape Charles,
was indicted on counts of first-degree
murder, use of a firearm and possession of a firearm by a felon in connection with the March 31 death of Bryan
Keith Elliott. He is being held in Eastern Shore Regional Jail without bond.
A local doctor believes “there is a
void in part of his brain,” defense lawyer Garrett Dunham said. He wondered if Coble has the ability to control
his actions. The attorney said if problems are found, second-degree murder
might be a better charge for his client.
Psychologist David H. Keenan performed the first evaluation. Dunham
argued a medical doctor would be more
equipped to explore all the possibilities.
It is “necessary for a proper defense
of this case,” he added. “He’s got several different injuries … and quite a
story to tell.” Dunham said Central
State Hospital can provide a “secure
environment” while Coble is evaluated.
“He’s had his bite of the apple,” argued Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Beverly Leatherbury. She said Coble should not be allowed “to shop for an
expert at the expense of the taxpayer …
we know Coble has a brain injury” from
a traffic accident. “Perhaps better to be
safe than sorry … but Dr. Keenan didn’t
say another expert is needed.”
At a preliminary hearing, Northampton Sheriff David Doughty testified Coble confessed when he turned himself
in. “Bryan was picking and poking at me
all that day and he basically got what he
deserved,” Doughty said Coble told him.
The 35-year-old victim had recently
moved with his uncle to a doublewide
trailer where the younger man was
shot once “between the eyebrows,”
according to Lt. Michelle Hallett, a
sheriff’s investigator. Coble, who was
homeless, was staying with them.
…………………………
Antwine Jermine Reid, 32, of
Machipongo pleaded guilty Monday in
Northampton Circuit Court to three
counts of possession with intent to distribute cocaine.
According to a summary given by
Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney
Beverly Leatherbury, Reid was involved in the $225 sale of an eight ball
of cocaine at Morley’s Wharf on Jan.
23. She said he also sold crack cocaine
to a police informant on Jan. 24.
The case was continued pending
completion of a presentence report.
Reid was remanded to jail. Before
he left the courtroom, he turned and
waved to his family and a little girl
shouted, “Bye, Dad.”
Antonio Ellis, 51, of Nassawadox was
sentenced for a third offense of DUI to
five years in prison, with all but a year
suspended. He got five years for DUI/unlawful wounding, with all but five months
suspended, and 12 months for driving on
a suspended license, with 11 months suspended. He also was fined $1,000. Robert L. Holley, 28, of Plymouth, N.C.,
got five years for possession of a firearm
by a felon and 12 months for possession
of a concealed weapon. All but two years
of the terms was suspended.
Joseph Lamont Hines, 32, of Birds­
nest was sentenced to three years for possession of cocaine. All but 30 days of the
sentence was suspended and his driver’s
license was taken away for six months.
…………………………
Accomack Grand Jury
Two quiet indictments handed down
by an Accomack Grand Jury were
made public Tuesday.
Upshur Thomas Ayres Jr., no age
available, of Accomac was indicted in
June of two counts of selling cocaine on
Dec. 1, 2012, and May 1, 2013. Vincent
Lee of the Eastern Shore Drug Task
Force (ESDTF) gave information about
the case to the jury.
Keon Lamar Townsend, 31, of Raymond Townsend Lane in Horntown
was indicted on counts of distributing
heroin on Nov. 27, 2012, and Jan. 7 and
8, 2013. Lee also testified in this case.
Ayres and Townsend are being held
in Accomack Jail without bail.
…………………………
Accomack District Court
Larrie Linwood Taylor, the 65-yearold Painter man who drove drunk and
caused the death of a local off-duty
state trooper and his 9-year-old son
in Onley 10 years ago is facing more
charges in connection with a crash
that occurred earlier this month.
A felony charge of driving on a revoked license after being convicted of
alcohol-related manslaughters was
filed Tuesday in Accomack General District Court against Taylor. In addition,
on Aug. 20 he was charged with driving
without a seatbelt. Both accusations
involve a collision in which Taylor allegedly drove a car into a utility pole at
about 10 p.m. Aug. 11 on Boggs Road
near his home. A police report states
he “ran off the left side of the road and
struck a pole” near Route 620.
Taylor was treated at Riverside
Shore Memorial Hospital in Nassawadox. He was released several hours later and charged with a second offense
of DUI and driving after having his
license revoked or suspended. There
were no passengers in the vehicle. Taylor was taken to Accomack Jail where
he is being held without bond.
Senior Trooper B.E. Lewis Sr. filed
both the initial and additional charges.
A blood alcohol test was taken but results are not expected to be back for
several more weeks.
The court documents warn: “THIS
SUBJECT IS A DANGER TO OTHER
CITIZENS AS HE CONTINUES TO
DRINK AND DRIVE.”
Taylor is still on probation for the
2003 crash, which resulted in the
deaths of Trooper Anthony Daryl
Campbell, 35, of Exmore and his son,
Andrew Tyler Campbell. Taylor was
sentenced in 2005 to 10 years in prison
for two counts of manslaughter and 12
months for DUI. State records show
Taylor was released to Accomack Adult
Probation and Parole on Sept. 12, 2012.
A hearing for the recent charges is
set for Sept. 25.
…………………………
A Bloxom man was charged with
three felonies last week, according to
Accomack General District Court files.
Clifton Gene Isdell, 30, of Bethel
Church Road was charged with possession or transportation of a firearm by a
felon, burglary of John Maddox’s house
and grand theft of Maddox’s gun. The
offenses allegedly occurred between
Aug. 13 and 23. Isdell was arrested on
Aug. 23. He is being held in Accomack
Jail without bond.
Desmond Corbin, 34, of Pocomoke,
Md., will not be prosecuted for a count
of grand larceny in connection with a
July 15 incident.
Joseph C. Demarco, 56, of Atlantic
was convicted of misdemeanor shoplifting in connection with a July 17 incident. He was initially charged with
felony theft. Demarco was sentenced to
30 days in jail, with 15 suspended.
John William Ward Jr., 43, of Main
Street in Hallwood will not be prosecuted for felony hit and run occurring June 6. He was convicted of DWI,
a misdemeanor, and given a 365-day
suspended sentence. His driver’s license was restricted for a year.
…………………………
Northampton District Court
Two men were arrested in North­
ampton County last weekend and charged
with maiming in separate incidents.
Ronnie Bernard Wilson Jr., 22, of
Coal Kiln Road in Painter was charged
with maliciously wounding Howard
Thomas on Saturday, Aug. 24.
Northampton District Court records
state Wilson “allegedly attacked the
victim as he came out of food mart.”
The “victim sustained (a) broken nose
and various fractures to the face. … (it
is) not clear if any sort of device was
used to strike victim.” Exmore Police
Officer A.T. Zieger investigated.
In the other case, Wilbert Lamont
Sample Jr., 37, of Holland Lane in Cheriton is accused of malicious maiming Ricardo C. Finley, also on Aug. 24. Deputy
Carlos Moyano of Northampton County
Sheriff’s Office (NCSO) is investigating.
Sample’s brother-in-law, who was
not identified, is an officer and told
“Sample about the warrant. Mr. Sample then turned himself in and has
been cooperative,” the file said.
Both men are being held in Eastern
Shore Regional Jail without bond. Preliminary hearings are set for October.
Andrew Whaley Jr., 42, of TB Road
in Exmore was charged with driving a
vehicle after having been found to be a
habitual offender. Trooper J.K. Feryus
investigated.
Detravius Breon Upshur, 19, of
Machipongo was charged with breaking
into an occupied house owned by H. Cypress on Aug. 18, and buying or receiving stolen property. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for September. NCSO
Deputy Keith Brady investigated.

Got $3,000?
By Linda Cicoira
Accused arsonist Tonya Susan
Bundick has been unable to come up
with the cash she needs to get out of
Accomack Jail.
About two weeks ago, Judge Glen
Tyler of Accomack Circuit Court, set
bond at $30,000 for the 40-year-old
Hopeton woman. Bonding companies
require 10 percent of the post. But
Bundick, who is accused of arson and
conspiracy to commit the crime in connection with an April 1 fire in a house
on Airport Drive near Melfa, is still behind bars.
Nearly 80 arsons were reported in
Accomack from November 2012 to April
2013. Bundick’s fiancé, Charles Robert
Smith III, also known as Charlie Applegate, 38, of Hopeton, confessed to a majority of the fires. He told police Bundick
set 15 unoccupied buildings on fire.
Bond was denied for Smith in Accomack
General District Court. His lawyer filed
papers to appeal the decision, but a date
was never set for a hearing.
Both defendants have been in the
county jail for about five months. In
May, Tyler denied Bundick’s request
for freedom after Commonwealth’s Attorney Gary Agar said he intended to
seek up to 70 indictments against her.
That didn’t happen when a Grand Jury
met in early August. The panel did indict Smith on 67 counts of arson and a
count of conspiracy.
Tyler ordered bond arrangements
for Bundick be made through a professional bond company. He did not favor
a house being put up as collateral and
ordered she be prohibited from leaving
Accomack or Northampton County unless there is a medical necessity.
Agar argued against bond. He said
while “two charges are more appropriate” at this time, “we don’t know how
this case may proceed. There is a likelihood of her running … she is very
aware of the circumstances of her codefendant … a major threat of additional
charges is over her like a dark cloud.”
Defense lawyer Shannon Dunham,
said Bundick is not a flight risk since
she is a lifelong resident of the Shore.

Del Monte Is Big Buyer in
Shorewide Property Auction
By Linda Cicoira
Del Monte Fresh Produce NA, Inc.
bought the majority of property sold at
a bankruptcy sale for Batista and Evelyn Madonia and East Coast Brokers
and Packers, Inc. earlier this month,
according to a sale report filed with the
court this week.
The company paid a total of $34.8 million for 5,851 acres, packing houses and
labor camps in Virginia and Florida.
Del Monte spent nearly $12 million on the Eastern Shore. Housing for
more than 1,100 workers and packing
houses in Mappsville, Tasley and New
Church were part of the buys.
According to the company’s website,
Del Monte “is one of the world’s leading
… producers, marketers and distributors of high-quality fresh and fresh-cut
fruit and vegetables, as well as leading
producer and distributor of prepared
food in Europe, Africa, the Middle East
and the countries formerly part of the
Soviet Union.”
In Accomack, among the properties the business bought were: 152
acres known as the Wessells Farm on
Route 658; 509 acres on Drummondtown Road known as the Bull Farm;
nearly 450 acres at the intersection of
Logan and Stonehouse roads known as
Virginia Farm; the 130-acre Killmon
Farm in Exmore; and the 72-acre Duer
Home Farm, the nearly 200-acre Drewer Farm and the 50-acre Jacobs Farm,
all on Indian Trail Road.
The 111,000-square-foot Mappsville
Packing House on Finney Mason Road
in Bloxom, which can process more
than 9,000 boxes an hour and house
up to 328 workers, also got De Monte’s
winning bid.
Also purchased by Del Monte were
the Tasley Packing House and Camp

Northampton School
Administrators Named
By Ron West
Northampton Schools Superintendent Dr. Walter Clemons introduced
the system’s newest school administrators at last week’s School Board
meeting in Machipongo.
Ray Sullivan, most recently of the
Roanoke Rapids, N.C. region, was
named assistant principal at Kiptopeke Elementary School. Sullivan will
fill the spot created earlier in the summer when Sabrina Parker was promoted from that position to principal.
Named to a newly created position
was Alice Graham, who will serve as
principal for Northampton Middle
School. The middle school has been created by blocking off the southern portion of Northampton High School to
house the students in Grades 7 and 8.
A principal for the high school has
yet to be named. The most recent principal, Alvin Coleman, left that position
at the end of the school term in June.
According to Clemons, Coleman has
been named as a mathematics coach
to serve all of the schools. Explaining
the $87,000 salary that will go with
the position, Clemons noted that Coleman has over 35 years of experience
in education, 12 in administration.
According to the administrative salary scale for 2013-14, principals and
department directors with 36 years
of experience could earn in excess of
$94,000 annually.
Board Chairman Dr. Richard Drury,
said the system is advertising for applicants for high-school principal and
expects to have the post filled in October.
In a related area, Clemons said
there are only four or five teaching positions left open and he expects to have
them filled by the time schools open in
September.
Clemons reported that a new partnership with NASA Wallops will allow students in Grade 7 to work with
experiments dealing with underwater
robotic research. Robotic kits will be
provided for the students during the
2013-14 school term.
It was announced that there would
be a joint session of the School Board
and Board of Supervisors to discuss
the school capital improvement plan.
At issue is whether to spend up to $20
million over the next few years for repairs and improvements at the county’s
three schools or to spend $30 million for
a new facility in Eastville to serve both
middle- and high-school students.
Technology Director Dan Harris
reported that members of his department deserve a lot of credit for updating and installing computer systems
in all of the schools for the upcoming
term. He said there currently are approximately 2,100 computers in the
buildings. While the system expects
to have approximately 1,700 students
in September, Harris said that several
hundred of the machines will be set
aside for testing purposes.
Prior to concluding the session, the
board agreed to add the color maroon to
those accepted for standardized dress.

Cape Charles Business Development
Is Focus of Session with County
By Ron West
The planning commissions of Cape
Charles and Northampton County met
last week to seek consensus on what,
if any, development should be recommended for the Lankford Highway and
Route 184 corridor overlay district.
The area extends approximately
a mile north and south of the Cape
Charles traffic signal and is zoned primarily as either commercial or industrial, with only a few businesses. The
key question is how best to use the area
without creating an adverse effect.
A related issue is the current effort by the Public Service Authority
(PSA) to provide a wastewater solution for property owners in that area.
The county already has developed a
tax scale for the properties that would
benefit from the service.
“While economic growth and development for the county is needed, we
need to ensure that it won’t become
detrimental to the business owners and
citizens of Cape Charles,” Cape Charles
Planning Director Rob Testerman said.
The consensus of the Cape Charles
planners was to limit commercial development near the traffic signal in
order to direct it into the town. Specific concerns included businesses that
might directly compete with the one
existing pharmacy in the lower end
of the county or a hardware business
that has existed in town for decades.
Northampton Planning Commissioner Roberta Kellam noted that final decisions have not been made with regards
to the PSA project and that the Planning Commission had not been in the
loop regarding much of the planning
for it. She added that it would be difficult legally to restrict certain types of
businesses based on a desire to protect
similar business interests in the area.
Cape Charles Councilwoman Joan
Natali, who also serves on the town
Planning commission, noted that the
wastewater facility was designed to
handle growth should the town reach
full buildout. “There are 2,700 building
sites in Bay Creek, with approximately 1/3 built on,” she said. It also was
pointed out that of the 958 residential
units in the town, about half are occupied year ’round, with another 400
available as rentals.
As noted at the session, providing
the infrastructure will take time and
then it will likely be even longer before
new commercial interests are attracted to the area.
A final issue that needs to be overcome, according to Natali, is providing
a viable school system to attract new
businesses, as well as a way to provide 24/7 emergency health care in
the county once the hospital moves to
Onley. “People need to see good health
care and good schools in an area to
want to move here,” Natali said.

70th Anniversary
Andrew and Dorothy Russell (pictured below) celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary on Aug. 8. They were
married that day in 1943 in Mississippi
on the military base where Mr. Russell
was stationed during World War II. His
wife-to-be traveled by train from Washington, D.C., for the occasion. The Russells currently live at Atria Assisted Living in Salisbury, Md., and prior to that
they lived in Salisbury and Modest Town.
They have three children, six grandchildren, and six great-granddaughters.
Honored at the ESSWCD Awards Banquet were (from left): Jessica Flory,
Kelsey Bisker, Marianne Simko and Ralph Dodd. Also honored were Jeffrey
Logan Holland, Sue and John Sanns, Richard F. Hall III and Larry Rantz.
SWCD Awards Announced
Last month, the Eastern Shore Soil
and Water Conservation District honored local community members for
their conservation efforts.
The Conservation Teacher Award
was presented to Marianne Simko,
who works full time as an environmental manager from URS Corporation
at NASA Wallops Flight Facility and
volunteers as coach of Arcadia High
School’s Envirothon Team.
The district recognized Jessica Flory
with the Conservation Student Award.
She has been a volunteer at Eastern
Shore of Virginia National Wildlife Refuge for the past four years. This summer
she is a Sea STAR (Students Teaching
And Researching Coastal Education) intern at the Marine Science Consortium.
Homeschooled by her mother, Jessica is
also the president of her 4-H Club, leader of her AWANA club, and involved in
Girl Scouts and Youth Club.
In 2011 Jessica created a dress from
87 balloons collected on Paramore Island in one day. She wears the dress
during her presentations to local
schools and events to educate people
about the dangers of balloon pollution.
The 2013 Conservation Farmer Award
was presented to Richard F. Hall III, who
owns Loblolly Farms in Accomac and
farms 3,200 acres in a corn/wheat/beans
crop rotation with cover crops. Through
the district’s Best Management Program,
Hall participated in all available covercrop programs since 1996 and kept current nutrient management plans since
1995. He has installed riparian buffers
around his fields to filter sediment and
nutrients from coastal waters and has
improved irrigation efficiency.
Robbie Lewis, area forester, nominated Larry Rantz for the 2013 Forestry
Conservationist Award. The Virginia Department of Forestry has worked with
Rantz for years, conducting traditional
forest management practices for timber
production, wildlife habitat enhancement, and soil and water conservation.
Nominated by Tina Jerome, district conservationist for the Natural
Resources Conservation Service, this
year’s 2013 Wildlife Conservationist
Award was presented to Ralph Dodd,
who farms in Eastville, near Cherrystone Creek. Through the Conservation Stewardship Program, Dodd has
planted over six acres of wildflower
meadows at the edges of his fields, extending his existing riparian herbaceous/forested buffers by over 100 feet.
He plants a corn/soybean/ wheat rotation using continuous no-till planting
methods over 75 percent of his land.
DCR’s 2013 Clean Water Farm Award,
given to farmers who are exemplary in
their protection of soil and water resources, went to Sue and John Sanns. After a
2012 energy audit, the Sanns’ state-of-
the-art chicken houses were equipped
with upgraded insulation, topnotch fanning mechanics and replacement dimmable LED lightbulbs. The structures are
outlined by waterproof covering to slow
soil erosion at the base of the houses. The
Sanns have taken several steps to protect
groundwater quality, capture ammonia
and particulate matter, and reduce odors.
This year, the district’s Endowment
Committee awarded $500 W. Foster
Fletcher Scholarships to Kelsey Bisker
of Northampton High School, who will
attend Clemson University in the fall,
majoring in wildlife and fisheries biology; and Logan Holland of Broadwater Academy, who will attend Virginia
Tech in the fall, majoring in crop and
soil environmental science.
The district recognized Victoria Spence of Shore Christian Academy and Brittany Scott of Northampton High School,
whose posters placed first in the Virginia
Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts State Poster Competition.

which time an additional $9 million in
interest will have resulted in a payout
in excess of $36 million.
Davenport spokesperson Courtney
Rogers reminded both boards that the
county must maintain firm guidelines
regarding how much to borrow versus
the county’s ability to handle such debt
without overtaxing citizens. Key characteristics of a highly regarded, creditworthy locality, according to Rogers,
include conservative budgeting, strong
cash reserves, prudent debt levels, and
multi-year capital planning.
The School Board has repeatedly
stressed the need to replace the existing
high school in Eastville. Built in 1954,
the building has seen a number of renovations and additions, most recently
the conversion of one wing to serve as a
middle school.
Repairs of the county’s three schools
over the next few years have been estimated at $20 million. A new high
school-middle school complex would
cost approximately $30 million. Davenport provided estimates of annual
(Continued From Front Page)
loan payments for the county for the
next 20 years if it borrowed $30 million. That would run the total debt service to $92 million that would need to
be repaid by 2036.
The Board of Supervisors made no
recommendation with regards to borrowing any additional funds for the
schools.
The supervisors used the opportunity to discuss the status of the schools
with Superintendent Dr. Walter Clemons. Supervisor Rick Hubbard raised
the issue of the most recent Standards
of Learning (SOL) testing scores. Noting that 16 of 23 areas tested showed
lower scores than the previous year,
Hubbard questioned how this could be
when the school system had hired the
Edison Learning Company two years
ago to help turn around testing scores.
School Board Chairman Dr. Richard
Drury said the School Board is equally
unhappy with the scores.
Clemons said students had shown
improvement in science and social
studies, but were still having difficulty
passing the reading and math tests.
Clemons added that recent changes in
the math and reading tests have posed
challenges to a number of schools
throughout the state.
Board of Supervisors Chairman
Willie Randall noted that low test
scores did not just happen, but had
been an ongoing problem for five or
six years and would probably take
that long to clear up. “We all need to
work together to make things better,”
Randall said.
Following the joint session, County
Development Director Charles McSwain gave a brief summary of proposed changes to the county’s zoning
policies, including more flexibility for
assisted living facilities, family day
homes, and the county’s sign ordinance. The supervisors were united in
their support of loosening restrictions
that tend to make it more difficult for
businesses to operate in the county.
The board is seeking to have the proposed zoning modifications completed
by late fall, with a public hearing on
them in December.
Prior to concluding the session,

there was a brief discussion regarding
the possibility of removing the seaside
from inclusion in the Chesapeake Bay
Preservation Act. While no decision
was made, the consensus of the board
was that the seaside does not need to

turn state’s evidence … they did see
promise in Devonte Davis.”
“It’s an appropriate disposition,”
said defense attorney Randall J. Leeman Jr. He contended Davis attempted
to get Bell and Tyvon Lyncurtis Smith,
20, of Diamond Spring Lane in Parksley “to abandon the robbery scheme”
that night. “He lives with that guilt every day,” said Leeman. “He knows he
can’t make this up.”
“His mother’s house was shot up
(and) a bullet went through his younger
brother’s bed,” but he still did the right
thing and testified, said Leeman. “There
was no physical evidence or DNA. It was
his testimony and his testimony alone
… he’s a different person … dedicated to
turn his life to the positive. He’s taken
everything to heart … is committed to
raising his own daughter … and attending culinary school,” the attorney added.
Davis said he and the two others followed a man to the former Godwin’s
Plant World on Lankford Highway near
Parksley, where they planned to rob him.
They did not realize that other poultry
workers would be coming to the site as
they all got a ride to work from there.
As more vehicles arrived, Davis said, the
three men decided to leave the area. Bell
was pulling the car away when Davis
heard the shot and then saw Bell with
the gun, Davis testified at the trial.
The murder victim, Belarmino Escalante, 25, lived in Greenbush with
his wife and four children. He was
walking up to the car when he was
shot in the chest. Escalante died a
short time later.
Smith testified he wasn’t there that
night. His mother and father said he
was at home when the murder occurred. Smith’s first trial ended with
a hung jury. The second time he was
acquitted. Bell was sentenced to 45
years in prison for second-degree murder with 20 years suspended.

et the games begin in earnest!
Tonight the remainder of the
Eastern Shore teams get underway after Broadwater opened its season with
a 40-7 win over Hatteras on the Outer
Banks on Saturday.
The Vikings will be off this week before they travel to Chincoteague next
week. That will seem like a short trip
after a nearly five-hour bus ride to and
from Hatteras on Saturday.
Last week I previewed the Broadwater and Northampton seasons. Today, previews for Arcadia, Nandua and
Chincoteague are featured.
Tonight’s action includes Arcadia
visiting King William, a playoff team
a year ago, and Chincoteague opening on the road against Hampton
Roads. The only local contest will be

Broadwater Opens Season with
40-7 Win Over Hatteras at OBX
Broadwater opened its gridiron season on the road Saturday with a 40-7
win over Hatteras, cruising to the win
after a 34-0 halftime lead.
“They had good size, but our speed
led to some big plays,” said Viking coach
Noble Palmer. “We were able to get a lot
of players in the game. Overall, I was
pleased with the way we performed.”
Broadwater scored in two plays after receiving the opening kickoff, with
Brendon Burrows throwing to Wesley Shrieves for a 32-yard gain before
Adam Bowen scampered for a 32-yard
touchdown.
On the second Viking series, Ben
Holland tossed a 36-yard scoring pass
to Michael Riopel.
In the second quarter, Burrows had
touchdown runs of 5 and 39 yards be-
fore Malik McCaskill gave the Vikings
a 34-0 halftime lead with a 25-yard run.
Shrieves added to the lead with a
4-yard run in the third quarter.
The Viking defense shut down Hatteras. Frank Long led the unit with
14 tackles, Malik McCaskill added 12,
and Preston Richardson and Shrieves batted down passes. Palmer said
Coach Rick Barnes did an outstanding
job of preparing the Viking defense.
With a running clock, Broadwater
did not score in the fourth quarter,
but gave up a late touchdown with the
starters on the sideline.
Broadwater passed only five times,
completing three, including one each by
Burrows, Holland and Austin Murphy.
Broadwater is off this week and
travels to Chincoteague on Sept. 6.
Iberra Leads Nandua to Golf Win
Leslie Iberra of Nandua chips in a Shore District golf match held at Captain’s
Cove in Greenbackville last Thursday. Arcadia’s Sarah Jones, looking on,
had the low score of the day with an 86. Iberra was second with a 96, and
Northampton’s Will Carstens placed third with a 98. Nandua won the
match, 432-434, over Northampton, using the best four scores. On Wednesday
at Bay Creek, Nandua won a 9-hole match with 201 strokes. Arcadia had 220,
Northampton 246 and Chincoteague 270. Arcadia’s Jones and Mason Grove
had a 40 and 43, respectively; Nandua’s Zach Underwood and Iberra had a 48
and 49, with a 50 and 54 for teammates Matthew Tyler and Jack Schreiber.

Jackets Field Hockey Opener
The Northampton field hockey team lost to New Kent Tuesday 3-2 in a
shootout after being tied 1-1 at the end of regulation and overtime. Madisen
Lewis scored to tie the game with 1:11 remaining in the first half; then Erica
Head scored the lone goal in the shootout. Katie Spady, Rima Horé, Nicole
Reyes and Brittnay Glennon played strong defense. Coach John Gorman
was pleased with his team, which lost seven starters from last season.
Webb Throws Three Perfect Innings for Win
Tyler Webb, a 2009 graduate of
Northampton High School, had his best
game as a pro Saturday with three perfect innings and six strikeouts to get the
win for the Charleston RiverDogs.
Webb, a 6’-6” southpaw signed by
the New York Yankees after an outstanding career at the University of
South Carolina, struck out the side in
the ninth with all batters going down
swinging to raise his record to 3-1.
He lowered his ERA to 3.41.

Arcadia Has Talent To Make Run at Playoffs
Story and photos by Bill Sterling
Arcadia will need to cope with the loss of some key players from last year’s team, but still has quality players who
can be difference makers with the right support.
Quarterback Josh Sanns is back with a year’s
experience under center and should be much
improved. Tyler and Taylor Major, both about
190 pounds and fleet afoot, will touch the
ball often, running and receiving.
Treyvon Copes and John Wright also will
carry the ball for the Firebirds.
Dylan Thomas, Eric Grinnage and Jamaz
Clark will see action as wideouts.
All-District returnee Todd Mackavene will spearhead a
line, with center Zach Sepelak and linemen Cody Anderson,
Damien Kirkpatrick, Leander Dickerson and Clay Fournouy filling other positions.
“We’ve got some playmakers and adequate size on the
line,” said Coach Tony Nock, now in his 19th year of coaching, and head coach at Arcadia since 2009. “But we need to
be in the right positions and replace some key players from
last year. I am happy with what I have seen in pre-season.”
Nock is assisted by coaches Wayne Burton, Chase Godfrey, Norman Pitts and Rodney Snyder,
The Firebirds list a roster of 28 players, with all but two
either juniors or seniors, so youth will not be an issue.
Caleb Lucy will see action in the defensive backfield.
Clark will anchor one defensive end with Copes on
the other. The Major twins and Mackavene also
will be important players for the Firebirds defensively. Marcellus Kellam and Raquan Hope
figure to help as well.
Arcadia hopes to improve on its three-win
season from a year ago when it lost some tough
games after being close at halftime.
The Firebirds don’t see powerhouse Essex this
season, but the two opening games with King William
and Central Sussex will be tough. Both teams went to the
state playoffs last year.
A Sept. 27 game with Nandua will be the home opener
for Arcadia, which gets only four tilts at the Firebird field
this season.
Arcadia has four Maryland schools on its schedule, with home games against Colonel Richardson and
Washington and away contests against Snow Hill and
Kent County.
Eventually, however, despite the Maryland competition,
Arcadia hopes to land in the Virginia football playoffs.

Nandua Favored To Repeat as Shore Champs
Story and photos by Bill Sterling
Nandua will look to defend its Shore District title with
several All-District and even All-Region returnees on both
sides of the ball.
Using the single-wing offense for the second consecutive
year, the Warriors will spread the carries among Tyreim
Blake, Montrae Armstrong, Anthony Smith
and Jakorah Parker.
“We are not having to teach the offense this
year and can expand the number of plays we
run from the single wing,” said Coach Chris
Miles, now in his second year.
The offensive line will be anchored by
center Tyler Bell, with 300 pounder Malachi Wise holding down one tackle and David
Strautz manning another. Sophomores Craig
Kelly and Robert Bailey will fill out the line,
with Alex Pruitt playing one end and Darryl
Fisher playing another. David Wright and Mahagee Wise
also should see action in the receiving slots.
On defense, the Warriors are led by linebacker Pruitt,
who stands tough at 6’-2” and 200 pounds. Strautz, Bell,
Malachi Wise, Bailey and Jake Smith will lead a stalwart
defensive line. Armstrong and Blake will fill linebacker
slots, while Anthony Smith, Parker, Wise and Jamar Jones
will be in the defensive backfield. Smith has the capability
to return an interception the length of the field and is also a
big-play threat as a punt and kickoff returner.
Wright, an All-Region kicker, gives the Warriors a scoring chance any time they get inside the 25-yard line and is
almost automatic on extra-point attempts.
Trevor Wessells is an up and coming player
as a sophomore.
Nandua opens the season with four consecutive home games, including a Sept. 20
matchup with Essex, a perennial powerhouse
in Group A football.
Coach Miles hopes to improve on Nandua’s
impressive 8-3 record from last year and make
a strong showing in the playoffs. He gives
credit to one of the largest coaching staffs ever
assembled on the Eastern Shore. The staff includes Gwame Mizzelle - JV coach, Tommy Splawn - defensive line & linebackers, Tom Rotkowski - safties & spurs,
Deitrick Downing - linebackers, Larry Giddens - corner
backs, Don Strautz - offensive line, Jack Sutton - offensive
line, Corey Tingle - running backs, Todd Travis - tight ends,
receivers and quarterbacks and C. Ray Pruitt - equipment.

Chincoteague Gaining in Numbers, Experience
Story and photos by Bill Sterling
The Chincoteague Ponies are still young, but not as
young as last year when the team only had one senior and
four juniors among its 26 players. This year there are four
returning seniors among the 33 players,
and many of the juniors are returning
starters.
Coach Nick Howard believes his Pony
squad can increase on the three wins of
2012. “We gained some experience last
year, and if we can stay healthy, I think
our players have quicker reactions and
understand game speed better.”
The workhorse of the backfield will again be Randy Bowen, who had several 200-yard plus games last season. Also
seeing action in the backfield will be sophomores Noah McGee and Cody Britton, in addition to freshman Issac Haymond.
Junior Larry Harper returns as quarterback and can help
the running game with effective passing. His targets will include Hunter Leonard, Jakeil Handy and Kyle Gentry.
Sophomore Luke Betts will handle the snapping, while
Ryan Moltedo, Alex McJilton, Jake Rickman, and Joseph
Thornton will see action on the offensive line.
On the defensive side, Zach Fisher, Justin Lappin, Miles
Libertino, and Corey Riefler will be joined by Leonard,
Bowden, Rickman, Moltedo and Handy as key members.
Howard, now in his ninth year as head coach, has his
largest squad in recent years and is optimistic he can have a .500 season, a rarity
at Chincoteague, where the small enrollment makes it tough to be competitive in
football.
“We have a good youth program that
is developing players at a young age, and
we are seeing the benefits,” said Howard,
who counts nine freshmen on his squad.
Howard counts among his assistants, Joe Leigh, who
retired to Chincoteague with 47 years of coaching experience, including 16 on the staff at Mount Union, a Division
III powerhouse that won seven national titles during his
time there.
Jerry Tarr, Johnny Tarr and Rick Betts round out the
coaching staff.
Scheduling also can be a problem for the Ponies, who
often must travel far to find opponents. This year, Chinco­
teague only has three home games and only one before an
Oct. 18 meeting with the Hampton Generals.

Continued from last week...
Mary came to the Temple
for purification 40 days
after the birth of Jesus.
Count 40 days back on our
calendar, Jesus was born
on September 11... any
doubt that it was Yom
Kippur. Luke tells of a
woman named Anna who
was in the Temple for a
“night and day.” There was
ONLY ONE DAY A YEAR
when a person could pray
overnight in the Temple:
Yom Kippur. Few realized
that the true 2,000th lunar
anniversary of the birth of
Jesus was August 22, 1998,
or on September 11, 1998
by the solar calendar dating we now use. This is not
one of those “sky is falling”
warnings. This is the word
of God. I take no credit for
these Post Ads, for even a
fool can tell the truth.

Whether you are a student or long
past the days of formal education,
there’s something about the start of
the school year that wipes the chalkboard clean. Everybody’s schedule
seems to transform, new shows air on
television and cooler weather (hopefully) blows in. Some people even start
their Christmas shopping.
The official end of summer is here
despite that the calendar notes the first
day of autumn isn’t until Sept. 22 for
countries in the Northern Hemisphere.
It is also time to plow up the garden and
put in fall crops like peas and cabbage.
Yellow, orange and red leaves soon will
appear. And local high-school football
stars will make plays that could gain
them college scholarships.
But I’ve got something to announce
that is even more wonderful than any
of that annual stuff. Well, at least to
the families involved and me. It is the
birth of my friend Ginny’s twin granddaughters! Yippee for the Guys, Parks
and McDonalds! Congratulations to
parents Jessica Parks and Andrew McDonald! And of course, Ginny!
Scarlett Elaine and Charlotte Sue
arrived at nearly 10 p.m. July 29 at
a Virginia Beach hospital. They were
born two minutes apart, with Scarlett,
whose hair is red just like her Daddy’s,
being first. She weighed 8 pounds, 1
ounce and was 20 inches long. Charlotte weighed exactly one pound less
and measured 19.7 inches long. What

Good Teachers Easy To Find
Dear Editor:
In an article about changes to Accomack County
Public Schools’ tenure requirements, last Friday’s
Post quoted Superintendent Bruce Benson as saying,
“Administrators have a hard time naming a really
good teacher who has stayed for five years or more.”
As a former Accomack County teacher (who stayed
for 18 years), I found his comment insulting — not to
me personally, because I left before Dr. Benson came
to the county, but to the dedicated, exceptional teachers with whom I had the privilege of working, many
of whom are still employed by Accomack County
Schools. Administrators may have a hard time naming good teachers who have stayed, but I can, off the
top of my head, name at least a dozen who have dedicated themselves to the children of Accomack County for 20 years or more.
Perhaps one way to retain good teachers, Dr. Benson, would be to start treating them with the respect
and appreciation they deserve. Perhaps one way to
make teachers stay more than five years would be to
stop publicly denigrating those who do.

BVFC Thanks Supporters
Dear Editor:
Bloxom Volunteer Fire Company and the Pageant
Committee would like to thank the following local
sponsors for their generosity and support of the
recent annual Fire Prevention pageant: Michael’s
Jewelry, Floral Express & Gifts, Baskets and Bows,
a beautiful sight!
There was a little déjà vu going on
as this was the second set of twins
born to Jessica. Her first ones, Joanna
Melody and Dylan Stewart Parks will
be 16 in December and were a wonderful birthday present for Nanny (Ginny)
that year. Those two have now been
promoted to “Number One Babysitters.” And they are doing a great job.
Ginny, of course, is beaming. “When
I first saw them I thought they looked
like their older brother and sister,” she
said. “Scarlett favors Dylan and Charlotte favors Joanna.”
Yeah, it was love at first sight. “They
started to recognize all of our voices,”
Ginny said. “Bonds are already being
formed. It is amazing to me. There is
such an extended family, but they can
pick us out. The minute Charlotte
hears my voice in the room, she wants
me to pick her up.” Andy, “the father
is just beside himself with them. They

Fish Fry Owes Success to Many
Dear Editor:
The 40th annual Fish Fry at Edwards’ Seafood
was a huge success! On Aug. 10, more than 400
meals were served on a sunny, lightly breezy day. Its
success wouldn’t have been possible without the gracious support of our community.
We extend a special thank you to Edwards’ Seafood and its generosity of space, labor and cooking
duties, to Onancock Rotary Club and its many sponsors for preparing, cooking & serving the meals, and
for everyone who provided financial support.
The Arc also sends heartfelt thanks to the Broadwater Academy football team for volunteering to help
with setup, parking, clean-up and serving, to name a
few of their duties, to Onancock General Store for the

to do is speak; they don’t necessarily

The first names of the babies are favorites that were picked by the parents
and siblings. Sue is after Great-Grandmother Sue Savage of Atlantic and
Elaine is after the great-grandmother
on the father’s side. I’m sorry I don’t
know more about her.
The girls are coming up on their
one-month birthday. OK, somebody
(hint for Great-Aunt Linda Guy) please
make one of your famous cakes.
ice cream, to our cake bakers for the delicious desserts
and to the many volunteers who participated that day.
We really appreciate the selfless time and energy given to our organization’s annual fund-raising event.
We are so very grateful for our faithful attendees
who purchased dinner tickets and our supporters
who offered additional donations. What a blessing
this community is to The Arc!
The success of the day belongs to all of you and for
that we send our sincerest thanks! The money raised
will help The Arc continue to be a voice, resource and
friend to the intellectually and developmentally disabled here on the Shore, and provide ongoing support
for programs and services for “A Life Like Yours.”
