Legebokoff found GUILTYof

first degree murder

TERESA MALLAMVia Free Press

As a B.C. Supreme Court jury foreman read out each verdict Thursday, finding Cody Alan Lege-bokoff, 24, guilty of four counts of first degree murder, the families of his victims began hugging each other and crying.

Many people in the gallery had tears in their eyes.

The jury began their delibera-tions at noon Wednesday and they delivered their decision about 5:50 p.m. Thursday. Courtroom 104 was nearly filled to capacity with people interested in hearing the long await-ed verdicts.

Legebokoff, whose trial began

June 2 is convicted of first degree murder in the deaths of Jill Stuchen-ko, 35, Cynthia Maas, 35, Natasha Montgomery, 23 and Leslie Donn Loren, 15. The murders were com-mitted in 2009 and 2010.

Soon after the verdicts were heard and court was dismissed, Neil MacKenzie, communications counsel with the Criminal Justice

KILLER OF FOUR COUNTS: Legebokoff was found guilty and sentencing will shortly follow for this 24-year-old from Fort St. James.

Branch, headed up a media conference outside the courthouse with some victims’ family members taking the opportunity to address friends, relatives, reporters and members of the public who had been fol-lowing the case.

Judy Maas, Cindy Maas’ sister who has carried an eagle feather with her all throughout the trial as she sat in the gal-lery and listened, gave her thanks to the members of the jury. But, she said the ver-dict is “bittersweet.”

“My sister is gone and we will never get her back. It’s difficult to carry the heartbreak.”

At times during the long court process, she said, family members “weren’t sure where things would land.” She said ev-ery day they prayed for all involved, the RCMP, all the witnesses and the “coura-geous” people who faced derogatory re-marks because of their lifestyles.

Referring to Legebokoff’s four female victims, she said:

“They were not just a sex trade worker … or a drug addict … or a person with mental health issues, they were people who lost their way.”The Women’s Warrior song sung by First Nations people on the courthouse steps Thursday was “incred-ibly powerful,” she said. Drummers and singing was the first thing people encoun-tered as they came out of the courthouse and photographs on placards remembered many other murdered and missing women.

Judy Maas said she wished people re-ally knew who her sister Cindy – and the other women – really were.

“They were loved. They are missed,” she said, adding, “we have suffered so much in the past four years …”

She also had high praise for B.C. Su-preme Court Justice Glen Parrett.

“The judge is the best judge I’ve ever seen,” she said.

Louanne Montgomery, Natasha’s mother, said she was happy with the ver-dict. Then she struggled to keep her com-posure and was overcome with tears as she gave an emotional plea for people to “keep an eye out for Natasha’s remains.”

No trace of her 23-year-old daughter’s body or her remains have ever been found.

Donna Leslie who has attended court for most of the trial which began June 2, said a sense of calm came over her as Cody Alan Legebokoff was pronounced guilty of first degree murder in the death of her daughter Loren Donn Leslie, 15.

B.C. Supreme Court Justice Glen Par-rett is expected to sentence Legebokoff on Friday morning.

Driving against the law

An officer patrolling Stuart Drive on Sept 5 at 10 am ran the plates of a vehicle and found the driver was prohib-ited from driving. The person was given an appearance order for court, a fine and the vehicle was towed. A driving prohibi-tion stops once a new charge is put forth, so the initial enforcment’s time frame will be pushed back as long as it takes to get the new charge resolved.

Despite over 99 per-cent of teachers voting for binding arbitration in recent days, teachers and the province have not yet met a decision and students continue to be held from going back to school. A media blackout has the public in the dark about media-tions happening behind closed doors as bargain-ing teams duke it out.

“They need to put a deal on the table the same way we’ve put a deal on the table,” said Kelley Inden, Fort St. James resident and teacher. “We would all like to be back to work and students need to be back to school.”

Integris provides hospitable furnishingsVia Integris Credit Union

Foundation

The Integris Community Foundation is pleased to provide the Fort St. James Senior Citi-zens’ Home Society with new furnishings for their Hospital-ity Room.

The Fort St. James Senior Citizens’ Home Society was formed in 1979 for the pur-pose of providing affordable low-income housing that is safe, warm, and comfortable giving seniors the chance to continue living independently,” says Marilyn Hiebert, Director of the Senior Citizens’ Home Society. “Over the years the furnishings had become old, mismatched and uncomfortable. The tenants themselves chose the furnishings, with special at-tention to mobility needs and safety,” continues Hiebert. “The tenants have such great pride in their new furnishings and look forward to holding many more

functions in the hospitality room. The Society is grateful to the

Integris Community Founda-tion for providing the funding to make the Hospitality Room com-fortable, coordinated and wel-coming to tenants, board mem-

bers and visitors.” “We were pleased to assist the

Fort St. James Senior Citizens’ Society with the purchase of new furnishings for their Hospitality Room,” says Ken Young, Chair of the Integris Community Foun-dation.

“This furniture enhances the space while contributing to richer, more comfortable social interactions.

Knowing that this grant is improving the quality of life for seniors in Fort St. James is pre-cisely what the Integris Commu-nity Foundation seeks when con-sidering funding applications,” concludes Young.

Since 2002, the Integris Com-munity Foundation has invested more than $650,000 in the com-munities of Vanderhoof, Fort St. James and Fraser Lake (and the surrounding region).

The Integris Foundation can broadly be de� ned as a grow-ing capital fund which serves the community. The earnings are used to meet a wide range of local charitable needs and inter-ests. The Integris Foundation is accepting applications for chari-table assistance until September 30th, 2014 at 4:00 at the Fort St. James and Vanderhoof branches of Integris Credit Union.

“The tenants them-selves chose the fur-nishings, with special attention to mobility needs and safety.” --Marilyn Hiebert

Bears roaming Fort St. JamesREBECCA WATSONCaledonia Courier

More than eight bear calls have been made to the RCMP over the past week coming from all over FSJ.

“This is the time of year they are trying to fatten up and [in regards to food] it’s been a bad summer for them,” said Sergeant Hanson. “ They’re around and not really showing aggression but it will be this way for the next 4-5 weeks.”

Snow on the top of moun-tains is another factor pushing bears away from their natural habitat. Police are encourag-ing residents to clean up their yards of any food debris, espe-cially fallen apples. If there are too many to eat residents can take them to the dump. Kim Henderson, a Fort St. James resident says she has seen multiple bears by her home at the highway end of Heathmont Street.

“We ran out and harvested our apples and got 100 cups of sliced apples. We beat the bears to it but it was a close call,” said Ms. Henderson.

On Sept. 10 a bear was trapped on Heath-mont Street and removed by conservation-ists.

A bear has also been seen in the area of Nak’albun school, not in close proximity but if residents see a bear they are encouraged to call the RCMP at 250-996-8269.

Dear Editor

I read the article entitled Enbridge pipeline approved on conditions in the September 3rd edition of the Caledonia Courier. In my opinion it was missing key elements of the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipelines project, so I would like to provide some of them for the benefit of those that may not be entirely familiar with it.

The proposed dual pipelines project is 1,177 km long. A 36 inch pipe will transport condensate-diluted tar sands bitumen from Bruderheim Alberta to a marine terminal at Kitimat British Columbia (B.C.), while a 20 inch pipe will carry imported condensate from the marine terminal to Bruderheim. Oil tankers are part of the project, taking the tar sands bitumen down the Douglas Channel south of Kitimat and through the often treacherous waters off Haida Gwaii on route to China. For this part of the project, Enbridge Northern Gate-way takes no responsibility in the event of an oil spill in the marine environ-ment.

In addition to the 209 federal Na-tional Energy Board conditions men-tioned in the article, the B.C. govern-

ment has laid out five conditions of their own. The only one met to date is recommendation by the Joint Review Panel and approval of the project by the federal government. The other four conditions are proving to be difficult if not impossible for Enbridge Northern Gateway to meet; particularly when it comes to B.C. First Nations aboriginal and treaty rights. A majority of B.C. First Nations are adamantly opposed to these pipelines and will not allow them to cross their territories. Along the pipelines’ route those territories take in, for the most part, a swath of land from just west of Prince George through Hai-da Gwaii. The Yinka Dene territories alone account for almost 25 percent.

The viability of the pipelines proj-ect is undermined by numerous legal challenges filed against it, the recent Tsilhqot’in First Nations court win, a declaration by Enbridge that they have no committed oil shippers to date and the fact that Enbridge has yet to state their financial commitment to the proj-ect. All of those, I believe, have led to Enbridge Northern Gateway’s recent announcement that their 2018 in-ser-vice date is quickly evaporating.

In the article Ms. Holder says com-

munities will probably be seeing more of them in the next year. If and when that happens in our community, I will take the opportunity once again to tell Enbridge Northern Gateway what we told them and the Joint Review Panel in our written final argument in May 2013:

“We do not believe that the project is in the public interest. We have no confi-dence in the applicant to operate a proj-ect like this safely and without incident. We believe that the consultation process has been inadequate and inconsistently conducted. We believe that landowner consultation was insufficient and re-stricted opportunity for landowner en-gagement in the Joint Review Process. We believe this project does not have social licence to operate in the Province of British Columbia.”

Fort St. James Sustainability Group

While Enbridge Northern Gateway’s shovels sit idle over the next 15 to 18 months, and likely longer, mine will be at work helping bury any chance of the pipelines being built.

Dear Editor

The Mount Polley mine situation is proof positive that our environmental protection and mitigation systems work. Although it would have been better if the mining company had been granted a permit to lower the water level in its tail-ings pond, as they had requested five years ago, the prompt response by the company and the environment ministry in the face of the current situation shows that they are on top of things and on track to make things right.

As a timely example: The level of scrutiny the environ-ment ministry has focused on the situation extends to a new requirement for the company to put measures in place to handle a 24 hour rainfall event that typically only occurs once every ten years. The company is complying and dili-gently working toward a full recovery plan. And that’s ex-actly how the system is supposed to work and how it should work when a problem arises. This event is proof positive that the system works and that it works quite well.

Deer season in the Nechako Region

REBECCA WATSONCaledonia Courier

Leaves are turning, the air is crisp and the number of wildlife vehicle collisions will start to increase across the province.

According to the BC Minis-try of Transportation, October and November are peak times of the year for deer and vehicle collisions meaning soon, deer will be seen in higher numbers on roadways as we approach the high-risk time of year for many areas of the province including Fort St. James, Van-derhoof and Prince George.

Gayle Hesse, a conserva-tionist for the BC Conserva-tion Foundation in the Wildlife Collision Prevention Program, says deer � nd the road attrac-tive for many reasons.

“Surprise, animals are not people. We tell our kids not to play on the road but animals don’t see the danger,” said Ms. Hesse. “The roadside is really good for animals to browse along. It’s full of wil-low and shrubs that get mowed and then regrows with tender

young [tasty] growth. They may also see a vehicle

and not recognize it as danger because they perceive their surroundings differ-ently. They don’t think the same way people do and they don’t react the same way people do.”

In the Nechako Re-gion there are about 25 to 30 wildlife vehicle colli-sions/month during peak months - almost one per day. There are about 200 wildlife collisions con-� rmed annually for the region however, MoT estimates that for every one carcass they recover another three animals are hit and killed by ve-hicles. The animal may not have died right away and moved away from the road, another animal may have come and recov-ered the carcass, a driver may have removed it from the road or vegetation may have taken over. Factoring in the 1:3 ratio would mean an additional 600/year for a total of 800 animals killed/year in the Nechako Re-

gion. Common factors that asso-

ciate roads with high numbers

of wildlife vehicle collisions include good habitat and for-age, water sources nearby, and long, wide, straight stretches of road. Although the � rst two are obvious, the last one may not be but collisions occur more than expected on long

stretches because people feel safe and tend to speed up, said Ms. Hesse.

“Any collision occurs more frequently and with more se-verity when the vehicle is mov-ing faster,” said Ms. Hesse.

Another contributing fac-tor is that deer tend to travel in herds. If you see one deer there is almost always another deer


HERD OF DEER: The winter season is approaching so animals are foraging and will be seen more often by roadways.

somewhere else around. In the winter especially, it can be common to see 10-20 deer together since they are a social creature and spend time in the same area.

“If you see a deer on the road try to shift your vi-sion from the deer you see to the one that is almost certainly following behind it,” said Ms. Hesse.

It is also not uncommon to see a deer bolt out at the last second or to run toward the vehicle in a dodging or twisting motion. This is how they are ‘programmed’ to respond to a threat in an attempt to throw off the predator. A � rst reaction may be to swerve but that could mean the car is forced off the road or into another vehicle. With deer it may be safer to use the breaks instead of the wheel. A collision with a moose, which can weigh up to 500 kgs (1,200 lbs), carries a much higher risk of injury or death, so it will almost always be safer to swerve out of its way.

“Moose are very dangerous because they are very big animals. They have big legs so the car tends to hit their legs and the moose will crash right down on the car. Deer are low, same with bears. They are heavy but have short legs so if you crash into them they don’t generally � y up over the car,” said Ms. Hesse.

If hitting a moose is inevitable, duck down as low as you can in the car. To avoid collisions altogeth-er, one can practise safe driving standards such as wearing a seatbelt, reducing speed in signed areas, having a clean windshield and honking the horn or � ashing lights to scare animals off the road (which may work for deer but not usually for moose).

1)The Deer Whistle is supposed to be an animal alerting device that aids in accident prevention. When attached to a car, air is forced through the device when the car is moving and a high pitch tone is created. Unfortunately the tone can not be herd by deer and does nothing to scare them off.

2)Wildlife re� ectors hold the same principle as clothing re� ectors or the type found on the back of bicycles. They simulate the shining of car lights in red and orange colours. Cluttering the sides of roadways they are meant to scare animals away when there is oncoming traf� c but studies have shown they don’t work. The MoT has done analysis on sections of roads throughout the province with these re� ectors and reports show collision numbers have not reduced.

3)While honking your horn may be a viable way to scaring off any animal, shining a bright light in a deers eyes may in fact stun them motionless. In either case, honking and shining your lights will probably not work at all for moose since they stand taller then a typical vehicles headlights.

Terry Fox run brings the community togetherREBECCA WATSONCaledonia Courier

The parking lot at Cottonwood Park was nearly full as an out-standing number of participants hustled around the loop at this year’s Terry Fox Run on Sunday September 14.

Over 100 people participated and $3,288 was donated to can-cer research, the most money raised in more than seven years by the event in Fort St. James.

People came from all over town and sur-rounding areas to take part including Prince George, Calgary, Smithers and Telkwa. The Post Of� ce Girls team was given a extra big applause for their outstanding contribu-tion of $1,200.

Anna Waddell, a teacher at Sowchea School, ran with her two daughters Amy and Leah.

“It’s a great cause that brings the com-munity together. We’ve done it every year, even as a kid I remember running in the Terry Fox run,” said Ms. Waddell. “It’s been a little more personal the last couple years since loosing the girls grand-mother but it’s just one of those things you do every fall.”

A big effort was noticed by volunteers and participants alike for this years organizer Heide Heiman who was seen at various events prior to run day creat-ing awareness and sell-ing merchandise. Lauri Deveau, a previous or-ganizer, came out from Smithers to participate and congratulated Ms. Heiman on a job well done.

“No one has ever gone out prior to the event selling stuff,” said Ms. Deveau, who ran the Terry Fox run in Fort St. James for over 25 years.

A shout out by Ms. Heiman was given to all the volunteers in-cluding Kim Hender-son, Binder Sanghera, Sheridan Tamayo-Henderson and Maria

Riske. Also to the spon-sors including Over-waitea foods who do-nated juice and granola bars and Ouellette Bros who donated water.

“I’m very grateful for all the people from the community who came out to help us raise money and aware-ness for the Terry Fox Foundation. We had a beautiful day and I appreciate all the sup-port,” said Ms. Heiman whose grandfather beat cancer three times so for her, it’s a practical cause that helps to save people’s lives. “It’s just a wonderful thing.”
