Fourth suspect in child sex case caught

Eyes on the playoffs

By Jessica Goddard Staff Writer

he Del Norte County Sheriff ’s Office arrested Edward Bert Steele, 48, last Thursday morning, the fourth individual in a case regarding child sexual abuse allegations dating from 2011 to 2019. Although three other suspects already had been arrested, Steele’s whereabouts were unknown. Sheriff ’s deputies found him sleeping in a car at a residence on Kings Valley Road. Steele faces charges of suspicion of aggravated sexual assault of a minor and kidnapping to commit sexual assault. The victim was born in 2006, other media have reported. Two of the other three suspects - Kathleen Mary Fuson, 60, and Katlin Janice Marie Nole, 43 - are employees of the Del Norte Unified School District. Fuson worked for the school district since February 2011, and Nole since January 2018. Fuson worked as a second-grade teacher at Pine Grove Elementary School, while Nole worked as a special-education instructional assistant. “The Del Norte County District Attorney has assured me that the alleged conduct leading to the arrests did not occur on district property, did not involve students at school, and were not related to the course and scope of the employees’ employment with the district,” school Superintendent Jeff Harris said in a press release. “Nevertheless, the district takes the allegations very seriously and will work with law enforcement and the Del Norte County District Attorney’s office, as needed, to resolve the matter.” Both women were taken into custody Jan. 17. They have been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of legal action, according to Harris. He said the district is working on hiring More Steele on Page A2

Lopez led Del Norte in a couple of stints as head coach for more than a decade. Last year, he guided the squad into the second round of the North Coast sectional playoffs. “We’ve been in the North Coast sectional for a number of years in a row,” Slayton said. “I can’t remember the last time we weren’t in the playoffs.” He credits this year’s hot start - 16-1

pack, returning for his third year on varsity after back-to-back all-league seasons. Also back are seniors Damian Dowd, Anthony Slayton and Kobe Mitchell, and junior Kaleb Price. Slayton said the Warriors are not an overly big team, so they’ve had to develop a style of play that exploits their strengths on defense and rebounding … and a trust in each other. For example, on a Friday night when leading scorer Banuelos managed just three points against Eureka, Slayton stepped into the void to lead the Warriors with 23 points in a 54-47 victory over the Loggers.

tions, including a written offer and a board recall. The meeting marked 329 days of teacher negotiations, according to the Del Norte Teachers Association. For the past few months, scores of teachers in bright-red shirts have filled the room, taking the public comment section to demand a pay increase. This week, the union posted a notice on Face-

book requesting people to bring poster boards to decorate the meeting room both to save teachers’ time and to attempt a new avenue of protest. “We have all been to A LOT of board meetings this year, and this time we want to do something different.

idway through this season’s peak flu season, which lasts between December and February, health officials said Del Norte County is experiencing high flu levels along with the rest of Cali-fornia and U.S. Heather Snow, director of Del Norte County Department of Health and Social Services, said this year’s flu season kicked off earlier than usual, and that the peak season can continue well into May. “This flu season got an early start, beginning about a month earlier than usually expected, with high activity levels early in the season,” Snow said by email. “Also, California had a pediatric influenza death in September of 2019, which was startlingly early in the season and was a chilling reminder of just how deadly influenza can be.” Influenza deaths this season have continued an upward trend from the previous two years. Be-tween Sept. 29, 2019 and Jan. 11, 2020, 105 deaths were reported in California. None have been reported in Del Norte County, Snow said. “At this same time during last year’s flu season, there were about 75 deaths reported in Califor-nia. In the 2017-18 flu season, at this time there were only 32 reported deaths in California,” Snow said. But Snow said it’s too early to tell by the numbers alone how bad a season this year is historical-ly. “So far, the CDC has estimated that there have

The team defense and rebounding then require a maximum effort,” Slayton said. He added that Price, a 6-3 post player, has been a revelation this season, doing a yeoman’s job on the defensive end in blocking and changing shots, and rebounding. Slayton said that at the beginning of the season “some survey in Humboldt sports picked us to win the league,” and he’s pleased with how the Warriors have responded to the hype. “We definitely like to get back, play defense, rebound and push the ball,” Slayton said. “We’re small enough to run on offense and we’re willing to shoot

This week’s public comment was filled again with the passionate sentiments of teachers and parents, with an often-repeated comment, “2% is not enough.” A 2% increase in both teachers’ salaries and teacher flat-dollar stipends is part of the solution in a report made by a mediator for the state Public Employees Relations Board. The district has stated they agree with the report’s recommendations, but teachers insist the increase is not enough to counter rising health-care costs. Former teachers’ union representative Mike Mealue also spoke during the public comment period, regarding a school board recall. He announced that

With just four regular-season games to go beginning Tuesday night at St. Bernard, Slayton he is moving forward on the recall, including publishing his notice in the local newspaper and acquiring 75 volunteers to get signatures on the recall petitions. A separate recall petition must be submitted for each individual school board member and would require approximately 3,000 signatures, 20% of all Del Norte County registered voters. Mealue is seeking to remove district Superintendent Jeff Harris and recall all of the board members save Frank Magarino, whose term ends in 2020. Mealue also stressed that a successful recall would cost the district $60,000 in special-election expenses. He also stated he had entered his name into consideration for Roger Daley’s seat on the school board. Daley submitted a letter of resignation Jan. 9, having served served on the board for three years. After the public comment, Harris said the district was ready to release a written agreement for negotiation this week. This will be the first written proposal since Oct. 22.

he “Point-inTime Count” for Del Norte County is scheduled for Tuesday from 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. at the Veterans Memorial Hall, 810 H St. in Crescent City. The Department of Health and Human Services, in addition to volunteers and other community members, is coordinating anonymous surveys of the county’s sheltered and unsheltered homeless population. By collecting basic information, agencies said they’re able to

identify and understand the county’s homeless needs, as well as the strengths and gaps in the existing homeless assistance system. The “Point-in-Time Count” is an annual, nationwide event held usually each January. A small meal will be provided to survey participants, along with a “share table” of free clothing items and other essentials, on a first-come, firstserved basis. County officials are seeking donations,

throughout the day of the count, of non-perishable and non-monetary items for the share table. They said last year ’s participants received gently-used clothing such as socks, camping gear, backpacks, blankets, dry pet food and tarps. Any donations are accepted at the Veterans Hall.

Mimi Stephens heads list of chamber award winners honored Saturday night Staff Report

he major presentation during the annual Crescent City/Del Norte County Chamber of Commerce Award Banquet - the Cholwell, Benz and Hartwick Lifetime Achievement Award – usually is a well-kept surprise. But the cat was of the bag Saturday evening as the friends and coworkers sharing a table with Mimi Stephens joined presenter Kevin Hartwick on stage for the announcement. By the time Hartwick said, “You know you have a lot of friends when someone says your first name and you know who it is,” everyone else in the audience knew to whom he was referring. Regardless, Stephens held her hands to her mouth in surprise throughout Hartwick’s reading of her accomplishments in presenting the final award of the evening at the Lucky 7 Casino. “This year’s winner is an exceptional winner, just like prior winners,” Hartwick read. “Our winner is truly a model of hard work, dedication and service to the community on so many levels.” Originally from the Bay Area, Mimi and husband Bob Stephens moved to Hiouchi in 1980 after falling in love with the Smith River, Hartwick continued. She formed her own company, Bayside Realty, quickly becoming a presence in the community. Mimi Stephens was an early board member of Court Appointed Special Advocates of Del Norte County and the Crescent City/Del Norte County Chamber of Commerce. And, Hartwick said, she was always a strong supporter of the Del Norte County Fair and Rodeo. “She keeps on buying auction animals,” he added to laughter from those who know Stephens’ proclivities, “and contributing to everything about the fair.” Harrwick mentioned the many causes and events she’s helped, including the annual Sea Cruise Car Show. “She’s been quoted as saying, ‘Crescent City and Del Norte County have been so good to me, I just want to give back,’” he said. Hartwick said that as owner of Bayside Realty, “Stephens fostered success for

Now, she joins a list of other distinguished winners of the Lifetime Achievement Award, including Bill Stamps, Dwayne Richlin, Jerry Cochran, Hector and Eileen Brown, and Steve and Deborah Wakefield. “I do need to write a book,” Stephens joked when she took the mike after ac-

cepting her award. “I’m just so blessed, I’ve been blessed all my life,” said added, clearly humbled. “I thank God for everything I’ve gotten. I thank Him every day for all the blessings He’s given me. My girls and my life. All I can say is, thank God for everything. “I just don’t know what else to say.” Other Chamber award winners Saturday evening included: — Business Leader of the Year: Deb Stover of Del Note Office Supply

— New Business of the Year: Fog Bank Clothing — Nonprofit of the Year: Del Norte Child Care Council — Chamber Ambassador of the Year: Gloria Goodman — Chamber Volunteer of the Year: Kathy Benoit — Del Norte Pride Award: Del Norte County Veterans Memorial “Point of Honor” Monument Committee.

DEAR ABBY Couple is target of ridicule for their healthy lifestyle DEAR ABBY: We need advice about how to respond to friends and family who poke fun or show disdain because of our healthy lifestyle. We are in our 60s. We rarely eat out, and when we do, we avoid fast food. We cook most of our meals with an emphasis on vegetables, fruits, fish and chicken. We exercise regularly and have occasional treats. We have no chronic illnesses and aren’t on any medications. For some reason, our food choices rub people the wrong way. If we are asked why we are in good health, we answer, “Over the years, we’ve learned not to consume foods or beverages that make us feel bad.” If we’re invited out to eat and order the baked salmon with broccoli instead of the burger and fries, we hear, “Your diet is so BORING.” We usually laugh and shrug it off, but we don’t think our diet is boring. We simply enjoy being healthy and know that food is “medicine.” Should we continue to keep our mouths shut? -HEALTHY LIVING

By Abigail Van Buren DEAR HEALTHY: YEP! Your friends and family react the way they do because seeing you eat the way you do makes them feel self-conscious about their own food choices. Continue laughing and shrugging to age 100. The others may not be as fortunate as you. DEAR ABBY: My girlfriend recently discovered that I am still talking to another girl I used to date. I’ll call her Kyra. Kyra and I had agreed we would remain strictly friends, and the breakup was before I started dating my current girlfriend, “Jan.” Jan is devastated by this, and I can somewhat understand why. She got cheated on multiple times in her last relationship. Do you think I was crossing a boundary by wanting to maintain the friendship with Kyra? Or should I have dropped it when I started dating Jan? I’m asking you because everyone I talk to agrees with me, and everyone Jan talks to agrees with her. I assume it’s because people agree with whoever is telling the story. You are unbiased, and your opinion would be

greatly appreciated. -- DOING THERIGHT THING IN UTAH DEAR DOING: There’s nothing wrong with remaining friends after a breakup. Jan is insecure because her last boyfriend cheated on her, and who can blame her? However, that is her problem, and you shouldn’t make it yours. Your mistake was not telling Jan when you first started dating that you are still in touch with Kyra -- and that she’s a platonic friend, nothing more. Jan does not have the right to control your friendships, and you shouldn’t let it happen. DEAR ABBY: How do you cut off a person who talks constantly without a break? By the time there’s a lull in her speech, I have forgotten what I wanted to add to the conversation. -- WORD IN EDGEWISE IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR WORD: I have encountered compulsive talkers like her. They are exhausting. Remember, she has to breathe SOMETIME. The minute she starts to inhale, start talkin’!

They are partners to the end ... Gene Votruba and Django retire By David Hayes Staff Writer

hen Gene Votruba and his wife Teresa moved to Crescent City more than 13 years ago, two of his childhood passions merged — law enforcement and dogs. Now that he and his canine partner Django are retiring, Votruba shared his journey as a K9 officer for the Crescent City Police Department and what next lies ahead. Asking Votruba about which came first — his passion for law enforcement or dogs — is similar to asking about the chicken and the egg. “I remember when in fifth grade, we’d have big show-and-tell days with emergency responders at the fire hall, with fire trucks, police cars,” Votruba recalled. “Yeah, fire trucks are great, but I can still picture the officer, don’t remember his name, but I remember his demeanor, how he conducted himself. “But when he allowed me to sit in the front seat of his patrol car, that sealed it. Then, whenever I saw a cop after that growing up, yeah, that’s what I want to do.” Votruba has also always enjoyed animals and dogs, almost never being without a pet dog in tow since he was little. But that infatuation reached a whole new plateau when he saw Crescent City’s K9 force. “When I’ve seen these dogs in action and what they’re able to do, I knew that’s what I wanted to do. “When I first came on the department here, I had the fortune to work alongside K9 Zeus. He was with Officer Mellow at the time. I got to see some of the amazing things he has done and I was like, ‘Yeah, that’s exactly what I wanted to do.’” While waiting for an opening on the K9 crew, Votruba got a puppy, and started training and raising it up as a security canine. “Some friends of mine here in town have him now and he’s been a great protection dog at their house,” Votruba said. His journey to K9 officer, however, was not

a direct path. After high school, he joined the Air Force and worked as a “cable splicer” in telephone cable communications. The Air Force career took him to the Sacramento area, where he met Teresa. The two have three children and at age 49, Votruba is looking forward to transitioning into his next role as grandfather of three grandchildren. After 17 years in Sacramento, Gene and Teresa followed her brotherin-law when he took a position as a correctional officer at Pelican Bay State Prison. “We came out to visit and that’s how we found Crescent City. We came to love it,” he said. While Gene tried to continue on in telecommunications, Teresa got job at the sheriff ’s department as dispatcher. “I got to meet the deputies and it rekindled what I’ve always wanted to do,” he said. So, he applied to the Crescent City Police Department, but was told by Chief Plaque he needed more experience. “How do I get experience in law enforcement?” Votruba said he remembered asking himself. He saw that opportunity as a correctional officer at Juvenile Hall with the Del Norte County Probation Department. “It gave me some training in the law enforcement aspect of the world. “I was dealing with the same kids as the officers out there, learning law structure. But I also had to be a mentor, a counselor, and to develop skills on how to talk to people,” Votruba said. Then one day, 911 was called by accident by a control pod tech. “Sergeant Garret Scott checked up on us. He was like, ‘Hey, are you going to put your application in again? We have another opening.” The second time proved to be the charm for Votruba. Later, when K9 Zeus retired, it opened up a spot, so Votruba applied, went through interview process and was hired by Chief Plaque. “I’ve been in the K9 business ever since,” he said. His first dog was Aeries. But after a few

He still has issues with dysplasia. He’s managing, but doesn’t have the stress of work every day. “But he has gone blind. Old age got the better of him,” Votruba said. When Officer Kaine decided to retire, his K9 partner, Django, was young at the time and had years of working life left in him. Votruba volunteered to be Django’s second partner. “Django is an amazing dog who’s done some amazing things. I’m very, very proud of him,” Votruba said. Django was 4 when they partnered up. He’ll be 6 at the end of January. “He still has a lot of life left in him, although he can act like a puppy at times.” Votruba said K9s are trained for suspect apprehension, handler protection, tracking and trailing. In addition, police utilize the dogs for narcotics detection, so they’re trained to find methamphetamine, heroin, cocaine and marijuana. But first and foremost, Votruba said, they train their dogs to be a part of the community. “We try to make sure our dogs are very social. We take them to a lot of community-oriented events, like Boating Safety Day. I let the kids visit and, of course, he always steals the show.” Django also visits schools and other meetand-greet programs such as Shop With a Hero. “We try to do a lot of things that allows the community do things with the K9s, to help people understand that, yeah, they might seem ferocious at times, but they’re big babies. They love to be loved like any other dog,” Votruba said. “We go through a lot of training continually. Every two weeks, Officer Anthony Lopez and I would go to Weaverville to work with the Meyer Police K9 Academy. We do scenarios - have a guy run around in the puffy bite suit and try to make it as real-world as possible.

“It is totally different when you face the real world and your dog has to actually apply what he has been learning, to take a suspect by his mouth and hold him there while I get him in handcuffs and render the scene safe. “It definitely gets the blood pumping. Because you see your dog and get used to him all the time as that big, lovey fluff ball that wants to so much love, then all of a sudden, he has to turn on his Mr. Not-So-Nice Puppy.” Now, after some soul searching, Votruba has decided to retire and move to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, where he has family that just retired and are moving there. Plus, his wife’s best friend from high school lives there, which sealed the deal. Votruba said that although Django has several more good years of service in him, the department decided it would be best if they retired together. “They didn’t want to put him through the stress of another handler. It’s time consuming, the recertifying of being put with another handler. “So, with my retirement, they decided for him to retire to me, so that he could be a happy dog, allowed to play. “We’ve built such a bond. He’s with me 24/7. He’s with me at home. He sees me every day. Where I go, he goes. “Except maybe when I go run errands and he stays at home in the crate, he’s by my side, he’s my hip attachment. I’m glad the city allowed him to retire along with me,” Votruba said. Votruba said Crescent City has no replacement yet for Django, although K9 Kai remains on the force with Officer Lopez. “Kai is youngest of our dogs and is becoming quite the rock star,” Votruba said. “I am very grateful to the City of Crescent City for giving me the opportunity to shine and do something I’ve always wanted to do. And give me the tools to succeed at it. “Like I told the City Council, take good care of my crew.”

been anywhere from 13 million to 18 million in-fluenza cases in the U.S. and an estimated 6,600 deaths from the influenza virus,” she said. “While the percentage of provider visits for influenza-like illness surpassed the peak of the 2014-2015 season, there has been a decrease in activity over the last week. “It’s too soon to tell if the season has already peaked or not, and if it’s the ‘worst ever.’” Snow said experts often look at the flu season in the Southern Hemisphere (which occurs from April to September) as an indicator for how the season will be in the Northern Hemisphere. She said Southern Hemisphere countries, such as Australia, reported record numbers of influenza cases. She added that the geography of Del Norte County can favor its residents during flu season. “Being a geographically isolated community does sometimes have benefits, but influenza is a highly contagious virus. “We strongly encourage everyone 6 months and older in Del Norte County to be involved in preventing influenza from spreading here by getting your flu vaccines,” she said.

Nationally, 172.2 million doses have been distributed, which has exceeded the initial prediction of 169 million needed doses, Snow said. Flu vaccines are still readily available in Del Norte County in private provider offices, clinics, pharmacies and at Del Norte County Public Health. Snow said the flu vaccine won’t treat any of its symptoms. Rather, the vaccine helps prevent ill-ness and decreases the severity.
