Murder probe continues ‘non-stop’ Police keep digging, but no arrests made in LaDarrell Hart murder case By MITCH SNEED Editor
Alexander City Police Department investigators have interviewed nearly two dozen people, processed and reviewed hundreds of pieces evidence and have been working around the clock to devel-
op a suspect in the Wednesday morning murder of LaDarrell Lamar Hart. But as of 6:30 Thursday evening, Alexander City Interim Police Chief Jay Turner said no arrests have been made. “It has been a revolving door around here,” Turner said. “We have been work-
ing to talk to anyone that may have any information, anyone who may have had contact with the victim that day and people who may have seen something or heard something. “In a case like this you have to talk to everyone and as those people are elimi-

A local senior group with a focus on continuing education is scheduled to soon start its winter semester of lectures at the Alexander City Board of Education Building. Horizon’s Unlimited’s second series of six events are scheduled to begin next Monday with a speaker from the Maxwell Air Force Base Air College. Volunteer Susie Boyles said the series is designed to provide informational and academic subjects and they may also be “subjects that you’ve never thought about.” The talks are scheduled for Mondays from 1:30-3 p.m., in the Alexander City Schools BOE conference room. “It’s a lecture series to enrich academically seniors or anybody that would like to come,” said Boyle, who is in her fifth year volunteering with the Horizons Unlimited. Altogether, the group had been promoting continuing education in the Lake Martin area for 26 years, and the school board had been promoting their efforts. “They like to have continuing education going on in the community,” Boyles said. There will also be refreshments at the classes, by way of coffee and sweets The classes are are open to all ages See HORIZONS • Page 6

Leadership Lake Martin Group pens letter explaining reasons The Leadership Lake Martin group that had hoped to address a safety concern and help beautify a downtown alley has withdrew their proposal over the opposition that came from a small group of residents and downtown business owners. Meredith Collari, a member of the Blue team in this session’s Leadership Lake Martin class, withdrew the proposal in a letter to Mayor Jim Nabors, members of the Alexander City City Council and City Attorney Larkin Radney. “When we proposed this, we felt it was a positive step towards making downtown Alexander City safe, vibrant, and more pedestrian friendly,” Collari wrote in the letter “However, with the backlash we have received from a small number of people and the recent threat of a lawsuit from Mitch Gavin, we do not feel this is an initiative we want to be involved in any longer.” The idea was to close the alley between the buildings at 33 Main and 41 Main to vehicular traffic and make it a public walkway with planters and other enhancements that would have created a pedestrian friendly, beautified space. The concept was first introduced as part of the city’s master plan, but has seen similar use with events like Rally In The Alley in recent years. See ALLEY • Page 3

DEAR ABBY: Many of your published letters come from unhappy married women. Some of them seem unable to get objective advice that would make themselves and their marriages happier. I’m fortunate to be happily married (33 years) to a wonderful woman who has a clear perspective. Three pearls of wisdom she could share: 1. Don’t sulk because your husband can’t read your mind. Trust him; he’d like to help. And listen to your tone as you point out how he can. 2. The way you talk about him to your friends is an expression of your fidelity. Talk about him honestly, but with respect. If you do, he’ll admire and encourage your close friendships and take a sincere interest in your friends as people. If your MO is to grouse and complain about him, in his mind and heart he will feel you’re abandoning him. 3. Be clear that while your husband might say he’d like to

The Ronald E. Koon Sporting Clay Classic is set for Feb. 18 at the Lower Wetumpka Shotgun Club in Montgomery.

Koon served on the board of directors for the Boys and Girls Club for more than 10 years. He actually started this fundraising event specifically for the Boys and Girls Club. “Ron always said what made this shoot unique is the course has 15 to 20 challenging stations and what separates our event from others in the area,” Boys and Girls Club Executive Director Melissa Reynolds said. “This course is a professional course, which makes some stations harder than others, while shooters are attempting to hit clays and have a good time.” The shooters who participate in this event come from all

It isn’t the first time she and others have begged him to take care of himself. She’s pregnant and they have two other small kids. He has insurance, so it’s not about money. It’s just so stressful for those of us who love him.

Trophies will go to the first, second and third place teams and an individual winner. “This inaugural event is expected to raise more than $15,000 to support the Boys and Girls Club of the Lake Martin Area,” Reynolds said. “This year we expect more than shooters.” Sponsorships start at $600 for a four-man team, $300 for a two-man team and $100 for an individual shooter. Those not wanting to field a team may also sponsor portions of the event, including lunch, stations, recognitions, etc. This year the event will begin at 9 a.m. games start at 9:30 a.m. and will finish up with steak lunch at 11:4512:00 noon.

A conceptual drawing of the revitalization of the Main Street Alley was presented last year. The hope was to close the alley to vehicular traffic due to safety concerns for pedestrians, and renovate the space to make a usable communal area like below, when the United Way converts the space into a venue for Rally in the Alley.
Alley
continued from page 1
The group was going to handle the project with no cost to the city. The group said the main objective was to enhance pedestrian safety. They stated that it is difficult for pedestrians navigating between the buildings and those using the sidewalks face the hazard of cars that are often obstructed as they approach the alley, proponents of the project said in a request to the council. The council held a public hearing on the proposal on Dec. 19. At
that hearing residents who were in favor and opposed to the idea spoke out. Following that discussion, the council decided to table any vote on the plan until a later date. But in the days following, opposition became more vocal and as a result the letter was sent withdrawing the proposal. “My Leadership Lake Martin team and I really wanted to try to get ahead of the game and be proactive with closing a dangerous alley to vehicular traffic,
safely connecting pedestrians between Main and Alabama Street businesses and fully funding that transformation,” Meredith Collari wrote. “I pray that no one gets hurt in that alley, but I think we all know the odds of that happening will increase when these building renovations are completed in the coming months. I hope that the city will not lose sight of the dangers that alley poses and will do something about it before tragedy strikes.”
Tallassee city council names Higgins Chief of Police By CARMEN RODGERS Staff Writer
Mayor Johnny Hammock and the Tallassee City Council held a work session and special-called city council meeting to discuss the two possible candidates for the city’s new Chief of Police, finally settling on Tallassee native Matthew Higgins, whose experience includes 22 years with the Montgomery Police Department. Originally, there were close to 30 applicants to choose from. The mayor and the council spent about 45 minutes with each candidate to see who would be the most qualified to lead the City of Tallassee’s police force. Through the interview process, the search pool was narrowed to two of the most qualified to fill this important position. The city council chose Higgins over the othere finalist for the position, Leo McCall McCall has a bachelor’s degree in general counseling and a bachelor’s in
criminal justice, both from Alabama State University. He is currently a patrol sergeant for the Tallassee Police Department. McCall has been with TPD for over four years. He was a Montgomery Airport Authority Police Officer and he served on the Montgomery Police Department. Higgins lives in Tallassee with his wife and children. He was a bomb squad commander for Autauga County as well as a canine bureau commander and precinct commander, in addition to his time with MPD. He is also a retired Master Sergeant/E-7 in the Air Force Reserves and served four tours of duty. Higgins is a combat veteran who was deployed to Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Somalia and Kuwait. During the work session council members were allowed to ask questions of each candidate. Concerned about the current reputation of the Tallassee Police Department, Councilwoman Sarah
Hill asked Higgins what he would do strengthen that reputation. “It’s not something that you can do overnight,” Higgins said. “It is something that is built up to over time. I believe bringing in someone from outside shows that you are looking for a new path.” Hill asked McCall to describe what he believed the biggest obstacle would be for the person who fills the position of chief of police. McCall responded, “I don’t see this as a problem, but the biggest thing that will have to be done is taking the department first and restructure it, reorganization.” Each candidate was asked several questions during the 20 minutes allotted. Following the interview process, the mayor and the council went into executive session to privately discuss each candidate and the their responses. After the work session and an executive session to discuss the two finalists, Councilman Jeremy
Taunton made the motion to name Higgins as Tallassee’s new Director of Public Safety. The vote was a unanimous decision. Following the motion, Hammock addressed the candidates. “I would like to say both Leo McCall and Matthew Higgins, we had two great candidates and I would have been able to work with either one of them, depending on which way this decision went,” Hammock said. Following the meeting, Higgins expressed his gratitude to the mayor and the council and explained that Tallassee is more than his place of employment. “I’m excited and honored. This has been a long process so I’m a little relieved. I’m extremely excited. I’m looking forward to working here in Tallassee. I’m looking forward to working with this department. I’m looking forward to working with the mayor and the council, serving the citizens here in Tallassee. To me, this is home.”

Living proof that America has talent
Wanted: A clear T picture of city finances
T
here is nothing that gets the resident of a town more up in arms than when they believe that their money is not being handled properly by their local government. We don’t have to look back too far to find an example. Issues with the finances during the previous administration in Alexander City illustrates that point well. It’s rare that a week goes by when someone doesn’t ask “What’s going on with that missing money?” In other locations like Jacksons Gap a shortfall in the budget has again raised questions about municipal finances there. Being about $70,000 in the red in a small town is enough to have residents seeing red as well. Regardless of the place, nothing will put the mind of a taxpayer at ease like openness, transparency and full disclosure. Alabama guidelines recommend that each month the mayor or top elected official of a municipality provide elected officials and residents with a statement of finances. Those are traditionally presented in an open meeting of the council. By having that statement aired in public, interested parties can have no doubt as to how their tax dollars are being spent. Like balancing your checkbook, it’s hard to argue with numbers. You need to have more coming in than going out. In a municipality, expenses have to be those that were in the budget. Enough for the finance lesson. This week at a council meeting in New Site, Mayor Phil Blasingame read to everyone in attendance an extended statement of finances for the town, based on numbers and records kept by Town Clerk Shelia Fuller. That statement included the balances of each account, the revenue that was taken in, a list of all the checks and expenditures that were made in the previous month, where each account was in relation to budget and the purpose of each account. Similar reports are given at school board meetings both in Tallapoosa County and Alexander City each month. Those kinds of reports are essential to open government and effective leadership. But we know that there are certain times when the conditions exist where such detailed information is not possible. In Alexander City, it’s taken two accounting firms, hundreds of thousands of dollars and countless hours of volunteer labor to try to unravel a financial situation that was messy at best. Mayor Jim Nabors reports that progress is being made and that they should have the last three years worth of books straight, so that they can start fresh. Interviews with six potential finance directors started Thursday and will continue today. We only hope that in time, the city’s finances will clear up and we again will get that open and transparent sense that our tax dollars are being used wisely. We applaud the hard work of the new administration and trust that they will be able to deliver some accurate financial news shortly.

oday is the Inauguration of the President of the United States of America. This, my friends, is a big deal. Representatives from across America and around the world will be there to witness this historic event, and I wasn’t invited. Oh, I could show up and stand in the crowd, but my name isn’t on the program and I won’t be recognized by any of the dignitaries. I would be just another ordinary citizen in the crowd. Even though I can’t sing I was sure they would invite me to do the national anthem. I’ve heard some pretty bad renditions of this sacred song of patriotism and I thought I couldn’t do any worse. Plus, all those politically correct performers are afraid to honor this great day of democracy in action. I may sing off key, but I’m willing to sing with my hand over my heart, standing at attention and never taking a knee! I would even be willing to bring my harmonica and give that a shot if asked. I didn’t even get the honor of praying over this grand event. When I was in seminary I made an A in head bowing, kneeling and offering taking. Instead they’re using some little known guy named Franklin Graham. I believe his daddy is a preacher up in the Carolinas some-

where, so go figure. It would have been a wonderful honor to pray for the President and then receive an offering from that big audience. Maybe that’s why I wasn’t invited. I’ll have to think about this one a little more. Do you know that they even have a guy who writes a poem for the occasion? He is called the National Poet, I believe. Now I could have handled this job just as well. I use to write love poems to my sweet wife all the time before we got married. I’ll admit I’m probably a little rusty, but the Muse still sits on my shoulder when it comes to poetry. For instance, “Roses are red, violets are blue, Trump got elected, Wahoo, Wahoo!” See what I mean about my gift? I may just give up my day job and take this up full time. Then there is this business about the Inaugural Balls. I was sure the Alabama delegation would want me to be there with them, but nope, no invitation. This is in spite of the fact I can’t dance, don’t drink, large crowds make me nervous and I like to be
home in bed by 10:30. With a resume like this I would have been the life of the party. Where my talents lie are in shaking hands, hugging necks and kissing babies. I guess I would have shown all those politicians up and they didn’t want the completion. The more I think about this I can see a parallel to the church. God gives certain people talents to do specific tasks. His gifts of talents are according to His will and purpose and the church is best served when the right people are in the right places. True contentment comes when we surrender those talents into God’s will and not our own. When this happens the church is blessed, the Kingdom is expanded and God is glorified. Don’t you think this is why Jesus prayed, “not my will, but Thy will be done…”? Washington finally called with an invitation. They wanted to know if I could run a leaf blower, use a rake or stack chairs. They’re going to need help cleaning up after all the festivities and thought with my talents I was just the man for the job. God Bless America!

Milennials need to own homes
et this: The share of millennials who own a home has fallen to a 30-year low. What’s worse, reports The Wall Street Journal, is that 32 percent of 18- to 34-year-olds are living at home with Mom. The percentage hasn’t been that high since 1940, at the tail end of the Great Depression. And that’s not good for America. I had my first taste of homeownership 20 years ago after buying a country house that made Herman Munster’s place look like a Trump estate. Renovating it was awful enough, but all hell really broke loose when my father and I began work on the bathroom. The bolts that secured the commode to the floor had broken. I raced to the hardware store to buy new bolts. We spent an hour installing them. We slowly lifted the commode into place and fished the bolts through the bolt holes. But the bolts were too short! “Son of a ... ,” said my father. “The idiots gave us the wrong bolts!” I said. I raced back to the hardware store. We toiled another hour and the new bolts worked. But a second problem occurred: The wax goop that seals the commode to the sewage pipe wasn’t thick enough. “Son of a ... ,” said my father. “The idiots gave us the wrong goop!” I said. After several hours of
TOM PURCELL Columnist
this misery, my father and I completed the bathroom. I thought then that the worst of homeownership was behind me, but it was just getting started. One day, while weeding a planter, I was attacked by ground bees. I poured two cups of gasoline into the bee hole. I wisely moved the 2.5-gallon gasoline canister 10 feet away, then lit a match. It was then that I learned an important lesson about gasoline. Gasoline doesn’t burn. Gasoline fumes burn. They burn because they are FLAMMABLE. And they are especially flammable when you create a massive carburetor in a dirt hole in your planter. As I neared the hole, I heard a giant “WOOOOF,” the sound gasoline fumes make when they explode. A 15-foot flame shot up the side of my freshly painted house. It took me an hour to douse all the flames and keep the neighborhood from burning down. The point is, owning a home changed me. It transformed me from a reckless, carefree renter into a concerned neighbor and a responsible citizen. Homeownership makes you aware of nutty government regulations that drive
up electric and gas bills — it makes you engage more fully in our country’s political process, which is a good thing. Homeownership makes you more likely to demand commonsense reforms — such as revisions to the Dodd-Frank banking law passed after the 2008 collapse, which has made it too difficult for many otherwise qualified millennials to buy homes. The Atlantic cites two other reasons why millennials are not purchasing homes. Some millennials rent because they desire the freedom to move from city to city and job to job as they climb the career ladder. They can afford to buy but choose not to. A second group of millennials, however, includes minorities and people who haven’t finished or attended college or trade school. Millennials in this group struggle to find the goodpaying work that can support a mortgage. In any event, the hope is that Republican reforms will unleash economic growth and allow more millennials to pursue homeownership. If more millennials own homes, they’ll become as miserable as I am. I can’t think of a better way to make America great again. Purcell is a syndicated columnist distributed by Cagle Cartoons.

Inauguration
Friday, January 20, 2017
The Outlook
continued from page 1
Bates said in a telephone interview. “We have tickets there on the front lawn, so we should be in a very good spot to witness it all.” Bates said that she has a pretty busy schedule. She has been invited to receptions by Rep. Mike Rogers as well as Rep. Gary Palmer. There are also plans to take part in a prayer breakfast with Alabama Lt. Gov. Kay Ivey. While the buildup and events have been exciting, she said that being able to see the 45th president of the Unite States sworn into office is the main attraction. “I just feel like that will be an awesome experience to witness that in person,” Bates said. “But of all the things that are scheduled, I think the one thing that I am most looking forward to is seeing Vice-President Mike Pence sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. To me, that may be the most historic moment of the entire day. I’m sure that will be something that will stick with me. Following today’s ceremonies and the parade, Bates said there are plans to attend some of the balls that are planned across the city. She said that she isn’t the only Tallapoosa County resident that is in Washington for the big events. Cay and Harry Weaver of Dadeville are also there and she said they plan to meet up and capture a picture to commemorate their presence to witness history. “It’s all been very exciting, but I’m sure it will really hit me once we sit down and the ceremony begins,” Bates said. That’s what I’m really ready to experience.”

Murder home from work. Investigators responded to the home at 1522 Third Street in Alexander City and found Hart dead, having suffered what police called “two apparent gunshot wounds.” Turner said they have established a timeline and have a pretty good idea of when Hart was last seen alive. He confirmed that he had put a message out inviting people over to play cards and that some people did come to the house. “We know that he was alive around 3 a.m. and was found at 5 a.m.” Turner said. “Now we are working backwards to connect people who may have been with him during that two hour window. “In addition to working that, investigators are going through the evidence that was collected. It has been non-stop and they are working every piece of information we have found or received. We are making progress, but there is no arrest to report right now.”
Horizon and a desk will be set up in the conference room to collect the membership fees, which are $20 per person and $30 per couple. The program is scheduled to run through Feb. 27, and the lineup of speakers include: • Dr. Mark Conversino,

Turner confirmed that property was taken from the home. A cellphone, a television and the victim’s car were among the items that were missing. Hart’s vehicle was later found on the Northside in Alexander City. Turner said the vehicle has been a source of some of the leads they have received. “We appreciate the cooperation and the concern that the public has shown,” Turner said. “You never know what piece of evidence or information may lead to a resolution of a case.” Information can be reported by calling investigators at 256-234-3421. Meanwhile no funeral or memorial service arrangements have been announced, but Armour’s Funeral Home is serving the family.

The Wetumpka Herald
PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) Deal with others directly for the best results. Others prefer the personal contact, even at work. A friend appreciates that you don’t just buy someone else’s version of a story without Ärst asking him or her what happened. Your loyalty is evident. Tonight: Have a meaningful talk. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Others seek you out. You enjoy this position, where you can say “yes” or “no,” even in professional circles. Be clear about your limits, though you still might want to detach. You could realize the path to reaching an important goal. Tonight: Join a fun yet Åaky friend for dinner. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Pace yourself, and know how much you need to accomplish. You might want to reschedule an important meeting, especially if it has Änancial implications. A boss or higher-up is likely to be impressed by your approach, thinking and style. Tonight: OɈ to join friends. CANCER (June 21-July 22) If you feel somewhat exhausted by recent arguing, just let the feeling go. Approach others with an open mind; the results will be better. Don’t lose your sense of direction, which could be hard with all the ideas running through your head. Tonight: Out for TGIF! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be going over several issues in your head. You might want to seek out others who have been in similar situations. Don’t be surprised if you learn something new because of these conversations. You will know the right way to proceed. Tonight: Make it an early night. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can be annoying when you are on a quest to get information. Try a more subtle, less controversial route. When the topic opens up, ask a casual question or two. Ultimately, you will avoid putting someone on the defensive, and you will get the real facts. Tonight: Hang with pals.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Be sensitive to the costs of proceeding in a certain direction. Remember, there are always factors that you can’t predict. Achieving a goal might be dependent on you brainstorming with trusted, diɈerent-minded individuals. Don’t shy away from an odd idea. Tonight: Treat a friend. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Encourage others to be more open. Your feedback might not be needed, as others seem willing to say what really is on their mind. Even if you make a judgment, try not to let anyone know. As a result, you’ll get more information. Tonight: Zero in on what you want. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You are all smiles, and are ready to move forward. Sometimes you don’t realize how signiÄcant your presence can be. You don’t have to say much; in fact, saying little could be more eɈective in allowing others to share more of themselves. Tonight: Opt for more privacy. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Activity surrounds friends and a possible goal. You might be in weekend mode already. As a result, you probably will want to cut the workday short or schedule a long lunch with your peers. Others seem to be up for more gregarious interactions. Tonight: With your favorite people. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Take charge of an important project. Your associates might decide to leave you alone to tend the shop. You’ll discover that a lot could fall on your shoulders because you are present and accounted for. Tonight: A must appearance, but then go oɈ and follow your whims. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Reach out to a loved one you care a lot about. If you have been considering getting together in the near future, set up a visit. Your intuition might not always have a clear explanation, but that’s OK. You don’t need to explain yourself. Tonight: Try something new.

When the Tigers varsity wrestling team hosted Benjamin Russell earlier in the season, Dadeville junior Kenneth “Ab” Abernathy struggles to maintain control over BRHS freshman Curtis Norris. Abernathy won the 220-pound division match with a pin in the second period. This week’s individual wins bring his personal record to 18-3 for the season.
Dadeville wrestlers struggle with fewer members By CATHY HIGGINS Sports Editor
The Dadeville varsity boys wrestling team has struggled in its second season and now has almost a third of its original team remaining. In November the Tigers started with 14 on the team. Now they are down to five grapplers. “Wrestling is a sport of dedication,” said Dadeville varsity wrestling head coach George Richardson. “Our team was mostly comprised of seniors. But several had other priorities or they just felt that wrestling wasn’t for them.” Five Tigers believe wrestling is for them and remain committed to the team. They include Dadeville junior Kenneth “Ab” Abernathy, eighth grader Dillan

2-1. Strickland came away from the Quad Match 1-2 while Muniz had 1-3. The Tigers also had a disappointing Monday at Prattville Christian Academy Dual Sectionals. Dadeville lost to Leeds 54-12, to Shelby County 60-12, to Moody 66-12 and to Montevallo 42-18. The day ended with Abernathy and Muniz having 3-1 matches. Strickland was close behind at 2-2 while Holley had 1-3. Despite the duals’ outcomes, Richardson is pleased with his team. “I am extremely proud of the determination and competitive nature of these young men,” he said. “They don’t even understand what the word ‘quit’ means, and that’s a reflection on the type of athletes we have here in
Dadeville.” The coach pointed out the individual accomplishments of his grapplers this week. “Kenneth Abernathy finished the two days of wrestling with an overall record of 6-1, making his season record 18-3,” Richardson said. “Austin Holley picked up his first three wins of the season.” According to the coach, Holley’s wins were borne out of determination. “When I say Austin has a lot of grit to him, kids across America ought to take a page out of his book on how not to quit and how to persevere,” Richardson said. “Austin has the characteristics that you want in a senior. We are blessed to have him on our team.” The Tigers next host Beulah Tuesday at 2 p.m. at the Dadeville High gym.
Youth softball camp coming up next weekend By CATHY HIGGINS Sports Editor
Area softball players have an opportunity to hone their skills next weekend as a youth softball camp is coming up. Hosted by Dadeville High softball coach Magan Ford, the camp for girls ages 5-12 years old is set for 8 a.m.noon Saturday, Jan. 28, at the Dadeville High softball field.

Strickland, seventh grader Royce Berry, sophomore R.J. Ford and seniors Tyler Muniz, Austin Holley and Caleb Jones, who is currently sidelined with an injury. Despite the commitment of those five wrestlers, Dadeville’s reduced team makes it more difficult to get a collective win. “There are 14 weight classes and we only have five wrestlers,” Richardson said. “So we will always lose because of our numbers.” That’s reflected in the Tigers’ last couple of contests.
