By Julie WhitemanChild abuse charges against Wade

Arnold and Christina Crowley are ex-pected to be dismissed in Woods County this week when two of the prosecution’s lead witnesses submitted reports that in-juries to Crowley’s son were accidental.

In January of 2008 Crowley and her live-in boyfriend, Arnold, rushed Crow-ley’s two-year-old son, Logan Stewart, to Share Medical Center with blunt force trauma to the head. Stewart was medi-flighted to OU Children’s Hospital in Oklahoma City where he slipped into a coma.

Although Stewart recovered from the coma, he has not recovered from his injuries and remains in a long-term care facility for children. He is unable to walk or talk.

At the time of the incident, Share Hospital officials notified law enforce-ment officials that the child had suffered

Child abuse charges to be dismissedsevere “non-accidental” head injuries while at his residence in Alva.

In his report Dr. James Colvert Jr. of Share Medical Center diagnosed the child’s injuries as “severe blunt force trauma to the head” and stated that he believed it was “non-accidental and caused as a result of a severe blow to the head.”

A report by Dr. Gormley of OU Medical Center who had examined Stewart, agreed with Colvert’s findings. Dr. Gormley told the OSBI that in his expert opinion, the injuries were the re-sult of child abuse within a three to four hour period prior to his being brought to the hospital in Alva. He also reported “chronic” injuries, indicating abuse over a period of time.

As a result of those reports, formal charges of child abuse were filed by the

Woods County District Attorney’s of-fice. At that time however, reports by two of the lead physicians in Stewart’s case, a neurosurgeon and a pediatric in-tensivist were unavailable.

When those reports were finally made available to the District Attorney’s office, they contradicted previous re-ports.

“We have the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt,” Assistant District Attorney Westline Ritter said. “We re-ceived exculpatory evidence in this case, which is evidence that shows the defen-dant may not have committed this crime. We received statements from two of our own witnesses stating the injury was ac-cidental blunt-force trauma. As we are required to disclose all findings with the defense, the charges are expected to be dismissed as the result of that.”

Upon arrival, Honeyman found Alva EMTs Julie Dennis and Gail Swallow as well, Alva Firefighters Cris Myer and Devon Cushenbery, OHP Trooper Randy McCullough all attempting to ad-

minister medical aid to Martin A. Kern, 39, of Enid. Kern was employed by D.B Drilling Co.

Honeyman said witnesses at the scene said Kern was on the catwalk or crow’s nest about 50 feet above the floor of the rig tripping pipe. The supervisor at the rig said Kern had unhooked his safety harness to lean out for a piece of

By Roger McKenzieThe agenda for Monday night’s

meeting of the Freedom School Board was brief. If not for an executive ses-sion to discuss continuing the contracts of certified personnel, it would have been brief in length as well. However, the final five minutes of the meeting made it far from routine.

In those five minutes, the board ac-cepted the resignations or retirements of four key personnel—two long-time teachers with 80 combined years of ex-perience in the Freedom School District and its only two administrators. The departures will drastically change the educational landscape in Freedom next year.

In a simple statement read to the board, Superintendent Richard Gleave read letters of resignation from first and second grade teacher Rita Melkus and high school math teacher Julia Russell. Then he announced the resignations of his wife, Freedom Principal Charla Gleave, and himself.

Melkus is retiring after 46 years in Freedom. Russell has been in Freedom 34 years.

Richard and Charla Gleave have been at Freedom for three years. The superintendent noted he would be retir-ing for personal and health reasons.

The departures were accepted by the board.

The executive session lasted over an hour and a half. When it ended and the board was back in open session, the

board approved rehiring all 12 certified personnel, including Melkus and Rus-sell. But the approval was made prior to the announcement of the retirements and resignations.

Terry Aiken, Debra Bixler, Gary Curtis, Courtney Hargis, Sharon Harp-er, Anthony Lovelace, Ryan Penner, Katie Strehl, Bryant Weber and Jeanne Weber will have their contracts extend-ed through the 2012-13 school year.

A calendar for that school year, based on continuing the current four-day school week, was also approved. It will be a day (seven hours) longer than the current school year. After profes-sional days for teachers on Aug. 8-9, the first day of class is set for Aug. 13. Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks are set for Nov. 21-23 and Dec. 24-31, re-spectively. The last day of school will be May 23 (2013).

The length of the 2012-13 school year as approved is 152 days of school plus five professional days, or 1099 hours. The state department of educa-tion requires 1080 hours.

Seven 55-minute classes will make for a class day that that starts at 8:15 a.m. and ends at 3:45 p.m.

A busy list of events winding down the school year marked the reports of both Principal Gleave and the super-intendent. Supt. Gleave noted that the accreditation officer visited the school and Freedom Public School is fully ac-credited. The only deficiency, regard-ing board member points, will be ad-

dressed, he noted.The superintendent said he would

meet with a representative of vocation-al rehabilitation on Friday.

“We will meet to discuss our part-nership to help provide summer jobs for some of our students,” he said.

He also noted that construction of the school’s new greenhouse, made possible through a donation by Cargill, will begin as soon as Mr. Weber returns from the senior trip.

In her report, Principal Gleave thanked the Junior Class, sponsors and parents for an “awesome Prom.” She also noted a drug search was conduct-ed at the school by the county and no drugs were found.

She noted the accomplishments of several students in athletic and academ-ic endeavors. She also announced that Freedom will initiate a Reading Suf-ficiency Act program this summer for four hours a day, four days a week, for four weeks. The voluntary program will provide reading help for first through third graders. She expressed hope that as many as 10 students would be able to take advantage of this opportunity.

The board approved some “house-keeping requests” by the superinten-dent to transfer a total of $131 in two accounts for a library magazine sub-scription and a panel to display senior pictures.

In other business, the board ap-proved minutes of the Mar. 26 meet-ing, activity fund expenditures, and the Consent Agenda. The latter includes encumbrances for the general fund, the building fund, and the child nutrition fund.

By Yvonne MillerLongtime teacher and Assistant Prin-

cipal Aaron Randall submitted his resig-nation at the Burlington Board of Educa-tion meeting Monday night.

The board accepted Randall’s res-ignation, but not without expressing thanks for his 12 years of commitment and service to the Burlington School District as math teacher, academic team coach, asst. principal, bus driver and technology expert.

Superintendent Glen Elliott said Randall is moving to Vici.

Board members attending the meet-ing were: Terry Graham, Beth Guffy, Allison Armbruster, Roger Allen and Aaron Smith. Elliott, Randall and min-utes clerk Jan Hill also attended.

Calendar for the 2012-13 school year received board approval. The first day of school is August 15; No School August 31. Fall Break is October 25-26. Thanks-giving Break is November 21-23. Christ-mas Break begins December 22. Classes resume January 2. No School Jan 18 or Feb 22. Spring Break March 18-22. Easter Break March 29 and April 1. Last Day of School May 17.

Buddy Carroll, of Chas. W. Carroll, PA in Enid, presented the fiscal year 2010-2011 audit report. It showed un-derpayment to some certified employees receiving the annual teacher salary step increase due to an error when posting on the computer. Following discussion of the issue later in executive session, in open session the board approved pay-

ment to those teachers. The audit report was accepted as presented.

Parents Dennis and Debbie Ross at-tended to discuss the possibility of their son Jon Reid concurrently attending classes at NWOSU while a BHS senior next year. Elliott said the board must first develop a policy before setting a precedent.

Encumbrances, change orders, and warrants for the General, Building and Child Nutrition Funds were approved. The March Activity Fund Report was approved.

After discussion, payment for unused personal days was approved at the rate of $40.00 per day for certified and full time non-certified personnel and $20.00 per day for part time non-certified per-sonnel.

Refinishing the gym floor over the summer was discussed and approved. The comprehensive local education plan was approved. Participation in the 2012-2013 E-rate program was approved.

The Board convened in executive session at 8:35 p.m. to discuss the em-ployment of Aliene Gosselin as parapro-fessional for the remainder of the school year, sharing a speech therapy teacher with Timberlake and Cherokee for 2012-2013, and the resignation of Randall.

Upon return to open session at 9:55 p.m., board approved employment of Gosselin and sharing a speech therapy teacher.

Specification sheets for new school buses were discussed at length.

In his report to the board Superinten-dent Elliott said current student enroll-ment is 154. He reported on the District 2 OSSBA meeting at Woodward from early April.

The Superintendent said final legisla-tion regarding school finance is still on-going. He anticipates education will not be fully funded. Elliott said Governor Fallin signed House Bill 2970 which al-lows for an appeals process for students not receiving a diploma under current testing standards. He said the legislation can adversely affect a school’s finances.

The Principal’s report included FFA Speech and Interscholastics, Track, State Instrumental and Vocal, Academic Teams and other end of the school year activities.

Upcoming dates for Burlington in-clude: State FFA Convention May 1-2; Tri-State for grades 4-6 May 1; Tri-State for 7-12 May 2,; FFA Banquet May 8; Spring Music Program May 10; 8th grade promotion May 15; HS Graduation May 17; Elementary Honors Program at 9:00 a.m. on May 18; JH and HS Honors Pro-gram at 10:30 a.m. May 18, and last day of school May 18.

By Lynn L. MartinIt sounds like Microsoft is making an

aggressive attempt to ease migrating to their next operating system.

Windows up-grades have always been a pain, even when they went smoothly. I would say I spend about four-hours each time I de-cide to bring another computer to the latest

and greatest.Probably the most interesting feature

of Windows 8 will be its move to imple-ment touch screen commands. Millions of people around the world are accustomed to flicking their finger across the screen of a smart phone to command their device. If you purchase a touch screen enabled monitor, then you’ll be able to choose that command method if you wish. Oth-erwise, your mouse will continue to work as always.

Microsoft said they are intent on mak-ing life easier by delivering Windows 8 Upgrades Online. The most welcome news is they want to eliminate entry of the 25 digit product key necessary to ac-tivate your copy. It will be embedded in the download! Also, the Microsoft blog promises 82 percent fewer screen clicks.

“Our aim in improving setup is to re-duce the time from start to finish,” Micro-soft’s Windows chief, Steven Sinofsky, said in a recent post on the Building Win-


Lynn Says

Windows 8 upgrades on the horizondows 8 blog.

Microsoft hopes to improve its up-grade process to convince the more than 450 million Windows 7 PCs capable of running Windows 8 to upgrade. Not to mention the large number of users with modern PCs running Vista and XP that may be finally willing to try a new Mi-crosoft operating system.

Upgrade all the way back to XP?Willingness to accept upgrades all

the way back from XP, if true, is quite a turnaround from the meanness exhibited by Microsoft earlier when if you skipped the Vista upgrade, you couldn’t do it eco-nomically from XP.

The online digital delivery is similar to what Apple did with the release of OS X Lion. If online downloads aren’t your thing, you can still purchase a Windows 8 DVD, but Microsoft is hoping more people will opt for the download option. Microsoft did not mention whether there would be a pricing difference between online downloads and physical DVD pur-chases of Windows 8.

If you opt for online delivery, you will still be able to create a bootable thumb drive or DVD to install your new version of Windows. This might be your prefer-ence if you plan on backing up your files on another hard drive and then wiping your system to do a clean install of Win-dows 8.

No annoying product keysIf you want to take the easier way

out, you can start the upgrade wizard online and then complete the move to Windows 8 on your desktop. Microsoft claims this process will be “one continu-ous integrated experience from beginning to end.” Even better, the easy install op-tion doesn’t involve entering an annoying 25-digit product key to activate your copy

of Windows. Microsoft says it will embed the product key into the disk image you download during the setup process.

Before you get to that point, however, the first thing Microsoft does if you start your installation online is to scan your PC to determine its compatibility with Windows 8. You can then read a simpli-fied or detailed report on whether there are any upgrade problems with the apps and peripheral devices on your system. The compatibility scan also allows Mi-crosoft to automatically determine which language to deliver the new OS in and whether you can support a 32- or 64-bit version.

After that, Windows 8 starts down-loading to your PC to complete the in-stallation process. Once it’s ready to go, you can choose to retain your complete Windows profile including your account settings, personal files and apps, or you can choose to keep just your personal files. You could also choose to keep noth-ing at all and start with an empty version of Windows 8.

In general, Windows 7 users will be able to retain their apps, Windows set-tings, user accounts and files when up-grading to Windows 8 using the simplest upgrade wizard. Vista users will be able to keep their settings, user accounts and files, while XP users will only be able to retain their user accounts and files.

Microsoft has not yet admitted what their pricing will be. There is some spec-ulation that since Apple announced their down-loadable system upgrade at $30, Microsoft might come down from their lofty $150-$200 past schedule. Don’t hold your breath.

By Yvonne MillerThe campaign to raise funds toward

Kiowa’s new hospital got another boost – this time in the form of a proportional donation of oil and gas income.

The gift is from Mick and Robbie Gillig, both lifelong Kiowans. They own a fifth generation crop and live-stock farming operation in the Kiowa area.

Of the couple’s first donation, Mick said, “This is approximately one per-cent of an oil lease, and Robbie and I pledge to give one percent of any future oil money to the foundation to meet the KDH needs in this phase of its develop-ment for continued operation.”

Friends of Kiowa District Hospital and Manor Foundation, Inc. President Judy Schrock explained the “Where Community and Care Come Together” capital campaign.

The campaign is designed to help implement plans to construct a new hos-

pital facility at the south end of Kiowa in southern Barber County Kansas. The Barber County Commissioners already approved $4 million in the form of tax bonds for the project. The Foundation’s campaign is to help fund the additional $2.5 and beyond needed to finance the hospital and help equip the inside.

Schrock said of the Foundation’s campaign, “This is an opportunity for interested supporters to make charitable gifts that will benefit our community.

The president said, “Thank you, Mick and Robbie, for taking a leader-ship step with your gift and pledge and for encouraging everyone to make a positive difference in the quality of life we enjoy in rural areas.”

Friends of Kiowa District Hospital and Manor Foundation, Inc. is located at 810 Drumm St., Kiowa, Ks 67070. Al-den Vandeveer, CEO, may be contacted at 620-825-4121 or [email protected].

pipe which, he said, was a common oc-currence when pipe falls too far out to be easily reached with the safety harness in place.

One rig hand who witnessed Kern falling and landing on the rig floor told Honeyman that a piece of pipe had fallen from where it was supposed to be and Kern was attempting to grab the pipe to put it back into place when he slipped and fell from the catwalk.

A driller on the floor saw Kern hit the ground and immediately began CPR which he continued until Kern was pronounced deceased by Trooper Mc-Cullough.

Jennifer Staggs, from the State Medi-cal Examiner’s Office, determined that Kern died from injuries including a bro-ken skull, neck, back, shoulder, ribs and blood in his lungs.

Deputy Honeyman said the investi-gation is ongoing.

NWOSU Foundation and Alumni Association

Attending Northwestern Oklahoma State University basketball games has kept Herb Niles, a 1954 graduate and sea-son ticket holder, connected to the univer-sity for decades.

“I don’t know how long we’ve had season tickets over there,” he said while recalling witnessing more than 25 years of Ranger basketball in Percefull Field-house with his family.

This year, he elevated his support of the program and tie to the university from consistent fan to scholarship donor. Niles endowed the Herb Niles Athletic Schol-arship benefitting men’s and women’s basketball team members, supplementing his encouragement from the stands with backing in the classroom.

Niles always envisioned giving to benefit Northwestern students through his will, but the opportunity arose for him to make a difference during his lifetime.

“It was something I’d planned on do-ing,” he said. “I’d already talked about it as far as a will was concerned. I thought this would at least get it started.”

Niles said he looks forward to seeing the results of his investment—to seeing his gift in action on campus and on the court—and hopes the endowed basketball scholarship will assist a student-athlete in real need.

Originally from Cherokee, Niles chose nearby Northwestern for college. He packed up his things and moved into

the dorm, but he was close enough to home to return to work on the weekends. He graduated from Northwestern Okla-homa State University in 1954 with a de-gree in industrial education and a minor in math and earned his master’s degree from Western State College of Colorado in Gunnison, Colo., in 1961. He worked as an industrial arts teacher, then as a math teacher, in Wichita, Kan., and later taught math in Cherokee before fully de-voting his time to farming in 1974.

“We are thankful that Herb has made the decision to create a scholarship now as well as planning for something in his estate,” said Skeeter Bird, Northwestern Foundation CEO. “We have too many individuals in our community that don’t make such wise decisions and leave it up

to the courts and federal government to decide the fate of their assets after they are gone. The decision to give now al-lows us a chance to honor him, and it also places money in a student’s hands right when there is a tremendous need.”

Full-time continuing students with a minimum 2.5 cumulative grade point average are eligible for the Herb Niles Athletic Scholarship. Applicants must be active members of the men’s or women’s basketball team and other campus organi-zations. The scholarship may be applied toward university-related expenses, such as tuition, fees, room, board or books.

For more information about invest-ing in Northwestern students, call Bird at 580-327-8599 or email him at [email protected].

By Roger McKenzieAlfalfa County’s hazard mitigation

plan—its blueprint for what to do in emergencies—is old. It dates back to 2008. At Monday’s county commis-sioners meeting, a contract was ap-proved to get the county a new, updated plan. The Northern Oklahoma Devel-opment Authority (NODA) will put the new plan together.

The plan will cost $57,901.25 and take up to two years to fully imple-ment. Cost to the county will only be $11,580.25, however, because the Fed-eral Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is picking up $46,321 of the cost.

Vicki Eggers, a planner for NODA, presented the contract to the council. Because the county cannot sign con-tracts for more than a year in advance, the contract will be for one year and

will be renewed if it is not completed within a year. Billing for the contract will be in three phases—50 percent when it is completed for public review and 25 percent when it is sent to FEMA for a review. Those steps should be complete within six months to a year. However, FEMA final sign-off could extend the final implementation into a second year. The final 25 percent pay-ment for the hazard mitigation plan will be due when FEMA gives its final okay.

As the county continues to work to keep its road equipment up-to-date, the commissioners approved a transfer of $250,000 in interest earned on high-way and bridge funds to a cash outlay account to pay for an excavator. They also approved letting the county clerk advertise for bids for a backhoe for District 3 and to sell a 1996 Trailblazer Belly Dump.

Eighteen road crossing permits re-quests were approved. The fees for the permits totaled $12,000. Fourteen of

the permits, totaling $8,750, were for District 1. District 3 had the other four permits, totaling $3,250.

The commissioners revealed they had received an opinion from the state auditor’s office that a rule mandating a five-day wait before paying invoices has been removed. They used the ruling to again ask Court Clerk Bruce Martin to expedite payments to county ven-dors.

Martin said that to ensure invoices are paid quickly, the bulk of purchase orders need to be received by Wednes-day for payment the following week.

“We need to pay our vendors on time,” said Commissioner Chad Roach. But he added, “We realize everything can’t be paid (quickly) if they come in at the last second.”

In other business, the commission-ers approved minutes of their previous meeting, maintenance and operations warrants, blanket purchase orders, and miscellaneous officers’ reports.

County approves contract for new hazard mitigation plan


By Yvonne MillerYou’ll get a glimpse of cattle herded

down Main Street (that’s the plan any-way), see lots of cowboys riding horses and of course bull doggin’ and steer wrestlin’ in Kiowa, Kan., this weekend during Pioneer Days (April 27-29).

If you’ve never entered the 11 a.m. Saturday morning parade to honor the Pioneers who settled this area, you’ll want to this year. The top prize is $75 then $50 and $25 for winning parade entries.

Jerry McNamar will announce the parade led by Parade Marshal Raymond Randall, fondly referred to as “Chief” by everyone in these parts.

The old-fashioned fun begins Fri-day evening at 5:30 in Progress Park. The United Methodist Men serve their traditional grilled hamburgers. While eating and visiting, enjoy listening to live music provided by John Miller and the Pioneer Band. When John performs there will undoubtedly be some enter-taining surprises.

The celebration began 28 years ago thanks to John Miller’s love of the cowboy way. His wife Bev surprised him on his 40th birthday by having a bunch of his friends come to Kiowa for a ropin’ and bull doggin’. The rest is history.

Saturday morning activities start early at 5:30 with a hearty Pioneer Breakfast served at the Masonic Lodge Hall. Don’t miss the goodies at the Historical Society Bake Sale starting at 8:30 at the Chief Theater. Mosey further east on Main St., to the Senior Citizen Center where you’ll find a Flea

28th Pioneer Days in Kiowa this weekend, parade, bull doggin’, steer wrestlin’ New Addition – Sunday Cowboy Church in Park with KREJ Radio’s ‘Uncle Gary’

Market beginning at 9 a.m.Line up for the 11 a.m. parade in the

Plum Thickett parking lot (east end of Main St.) at 10:15.

Immediately following the parade, Miller said cowboys should head to his arena on the southeast edge of town to start entering the bull doggin’. He said the contest should get going around 1 p.m. Spectators are encouraged. Re-freshments are served.

The steer wrestlin’ is a Texas Cow-boy Rodeo Association (TCRA) sanc-tioned event, Miller said.

He expects at least 40 cowboys for the rodeo events. One of those is Stan Williamson, a two-time world champi-on, who is bringing steers for the event. Miller said Stan is now just over age 60 and has aspirations to make it to the National Finals Rodeo competition one more time.

Miller said the best part of the weekend is getting to see lots of his old friends. “And we’re getting old. We’ve got almost a new set of players,” he said with a chuckle.

Another tradition that evolved from Pioneer Days is the Reading Rodeo. His wife Bev, now retired, was a longtime elementary teacher. She said for nearly

15 years now, first graders participate in a reading program that culminates with a visit to Miller’s arena where he and his cowboy friends entertain the youngsters with rope tricks and much more.Cowboy Church Service and Team

Ropin’ SundayAll are invited to a Cowboy Church

service in Progress Park at 8 a.m., Sun-day. Gary Moore who is known as “Un-cle Gary” on KREJ, the Christian radio station in Medicine Lodge, will deliver the message.

“Uncle Gary” is in the 9th year of his radio show that airs on KREJ Saturdays from noon to one. He offers Christian devotions, cowboy poetry and more on his show. He is known for his slo-gan, “Cowboy by choice. Christian by Grace.”

The team ropin’ begins Sunday about 1 p.m., at Miller’s Arena.

Miller thanks Chieftain Oil for sponsoring the parade and team ropin’ – and Val Energy, Inc. for sponsoring the steer wrestlin’. He credits Mark Johnson for helping him a lot with preparations to get the arena and more prepared for the weekend.

“People are really nice,” Miller said.

The Waynoka FCCLA chapter re-ceived the Oklahoma Membership Award at the 66th Annual FCCLA State Convention held at the Cox Convention Center on April 5, 2012. The Oklahoma Membership Award is a prestigious award as there were only three given out to comprehensive high schools in the state of Oklahoma this year. This award goes to chapters who have 100% of their Family and Consumer Sciences classes affiliated as members of FCCLA. Mrs.

Poe has 50 students in class and all of them are affiliated members of FCCLA. The Waynoka FCCLA chapter has 62 members making it the largest organi-zation at Waynoka Schools. The chapter was honored at the Oklahoma Alumni and Associates reception where they re-ceived their award.

Also at State Convention the Way-noka FCCLA chapter was recognized as a Gold Star Chapter. The most excit-ing part about this award was that the chapter was seated on the floor of the Cox Convention Center five rows from the stage. This award is to honor chap-ters for their hard work each year as they provide opportunities to members in many different areas. Oklahoma FC-

CLA recognizes chapters who exceed minimum expectations and go the ex-tra mile for their members. Chapters are awarded points throughout the year for this award. Waynoka was one of six other chapters to be named a Gold Chapter.

In the closing session all State STAR Event Winners were recognized for their accomplishments. Six students from the Waynoka chapter were honored for their events. They were Colton Budy-Jr. En-trepreneurship, Layne Meriwether-Sr. Job Interview, Stephanie Nutter-Sr. Nu-trition and Wellness, Maria Wilcox-Sr. Promote and Publicize, Andrew Miller-Jr. Teach and Train, and Taylor Wag-goner-Work Readiness Job Interview.

Waynoka FCCLA receives membership award


By Helen BarrettWoods County Deputy Keith Dale

received a call to investigate an accidental death at an oil field site at approximately 8:49 p.m. on April 17. The deceased male was listed as Gaylon Reese Taylor, 25, Grandbury, Texas. The well site was located near the intersection of County Road 490 and Kay Road.

Dale’s report states that the site appeared to be a water storage facility with a large water pit and green Pioneer water pump sitting on its bank. Two Ford pickups with “Caprock Energy Services, LLC” on the doors were also at the scene along with an ambulance and rescue truck.

Firefighters Chris Morris and Derek Nusser along with EMT’s Brooke Meyer and Phoebee Bell told Dale there was a man lying beside the water pit who was dead. The EMTs had checked the body

for signs of life but had not moved the body which had a large cut on the side of the deceased’s head.

Deputy Dale interviewed the workers at the scene who were employees of Caprock Energy LLC. The employees said they were preparing the “Jackson Site” for fracking, located approximately 1 mile east of the Lancaster No. 1-26H where the fatality occurred.

The employees said Taylor had been sent to the Lancaster to prime the water pump. When they did not receive any water after five minutes, the employees went to check on Taylor. One employee, Walnut “Luis” Salmeron, said when they arrived at the site, they could see water spraying from a black hose flailing in the air.

The report states Luis shut the pump off when he noticed the control valve was fully open. He then radioed for

others to come help look for Taylor, then left the Lancaster to pick them up and return.

At about 10:18 p.m., one of the employees called Kenneth Park to say they could not find Taylor. A short time later, one of the employees saw a white shirt in the water and called for others to help. Two of the employees entered the water pit and found Taylor floating face down about one foot below the surface of the water.

Dale’s report states that evidence at the scene indicated the water pressure became too great in the hose which was not secured to anything stable causing it to wave in the air. Taylor, who was not wearing a hard hat, was struck in the head by the metal end of the hose, causing him to be knocked unconscious and fall into the water pit where he apparently drowned.

Freak accident results in death at oil rig

By Helen BarrettDaniel Katsumi Yonashiro Jr., 38,

of Cushing, Okla., died after being electrocuted while Bloom Electric Company was taking down a line near the Salt Water Disposal Dutch Harbor in Alfalfa County.

The Alfalfa County Sheriff’s Office received a call at 6:47 p.m. from the electric company saying an employee working for them had been electrocuted and they needed help. The caller told dispatch that they were not from around the area and were not sure where they were.

The caller said he thought they were

2 miles west and 2 miles south of Cozy Curve, and they were south of where two blacktop roads met. Under sheriff Dennis Frisk decided to drive to the Lambert Road to see if he could find the company vehicle. At approximately 7 p.m. Frisk met the vehicle at CR 550 and Craig. The employees gave Frisk directions to the accident location.

When Frisk arrived, OHP Trooper Rick Wallace was at the scene helping other employees do CPR on the victim. The Cherokee Ambulance transported Yonashiro to Share Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.

Frisk talked with Michael Neese,

foreman with the crew, who said the crew was taking the line down and they had checked to make sure the line was dead. Neese said Yonashiro was standing on the ground while he was lowering the line. When he reached out to grab the line, it shocked him.

Neese told Frisk that the line “must of had some feedback in it.”

At the Share ER, Frisk was informed by the nurse that the victim died of electrocution which came through his right hand and out both of his feet. His body was taken to the Medical Examiner’s office for examination and official cause of death.
