Sheri Lee, Director of the Housing Authority of Glasgow, spoke to the Glasgow City Council to review the agency’s work.

not have adequate food available to them. An average of 560 families per month are serviced through commodities dis-tributions. Recognized for excellence on the state level by the Department for Housing and Urban Development, the agency received more than $3.28 million for programs in 2011.

The Council passed resolutions declaring va-cant lots on Lee Street as surplus property along with a non-funtioning vehicle and office equip-ment.

Sara Smila and Betty Herbert were both reap-pointed to 3-year terms on the Historic Preserva-tion Board; the terms will expire March 31, 2015.

Leech, son of Dr. Leech and father of Joseph C. Leech, was also mayor of Glasgow. During his term as mayor, the city purchased a Seagrave pumper truck for the Glasgow Fire Department in 1925; the fire engine is now known as “Granny” and is on exhibit at the de-partment and is frequent-ly seen in local parades.

Joseph C. Leech was a veteran of World War II, having served in the Unit-ed States Army Air Corps. His older brother, Jack

Reynolds Leech, was an Army veteran of World War II and was the propri-etor of one of Glasgow’s early Dairy Queen shops. Another brother, Brice Terry (“Petie”) Leech, was a Navy veteran of World War II, and one-time Director of Admis-sions for Centre College. The three sons were the children of Brice Reyn-olds Leech and Ruth Em-erson Terry. Joseph C. Leech was preceded in death by his wife, Jean Jolly.

to inform citizens accept-ed into the program about the work of local law en-forcement agencies.

The Neighborhood Watch program has seen renewed interest in Glasgow’s residential ar-eas, according to Turcotte and Community Service Officer Kasey Clay. The Police Explorer Program coordinated by Officer Howard Garrison, who is also serves as the school resource officer for Glasgow High School, has seen increased inter-est from students. The program provides leader-ship training for students in the local high schools. According to Garrison, 10 Glasgow High School students and 14-15 Bar-ren County High School students are involved currently.

Alma Glover, a com-munity volunteer who

oversees the Liberty Dis-trict Ralph Bunche Cen-ter, commented that she was frustrated by the fact that many children are afraid of police officers. Turcotte admitted he was aware of the percep-tion and countered that he and the department’s officers were striving to build relationships with children at a young age. The Chief cited examples of frequent visits to lo-cal schools, having lunch with children, and a com-munity Egg Hunt being sponsored by the Citi-zens Police Academy as ways the department is reaching out to befriend children.

In the past year the de-partment’s dispatch cen-ter has been consolidated with the 911 call center. Turcotte has also added the positions of a Com-munity Service Officer

and a Public Affairs Offi-cer to the agency’s roster.

Turcotte noted the acquisition of surplus military equipment as a boon for Glasgow. The department has received several vehicles such as Hummers, transport trucks and vans, along with items for use in di-saster and emergency sit-uations. “We’re looking to use the program even more next year,” Turcotte stated. Local resident Bernard Williams com-mented that he was aware of apprehension within the community about the military equipment being used in Glasgow. Wil-liams stated “…it appears as though the police de-partment is going from ‘protect and serve’ to a more military style,” and further elaborated that he had heard comments that “this [Glasgow] is becoming a scary place.”

The Chief responded that “we got the Hum-mers because of their four-wheel drive…..we don’t use them on a daily basis and we get a lot of compliments on them. Anyone who has that per-ception should come and talk to me.”

Tim Sparks of Police Watch, a subsidiary of Advanced Surveillance, Inc., made a presentation about his company’s pro-gram which uses cameras connected to security systems to allow law en-forcement first respond-ers to have instant images of crimes in progress or emergency situations to allow informed respons-es. Sparks was assisted by Don Wyatt of Star-Tel Systems of Glasgow. Turcotte has encouraged local businesses to invest in the system since first learning of it last year.

indicted on one count each of deprivation of rights under color of law and one count each of providing a false state-ment to federal investiga-tors. Guffey was indicted on two counts of depriva-tion of rights under color of law and two counts of providing a false state-ment to federal investi-gators. All of the men were originally charged in February. They were all charged in a super-seding indictment last month. The supersed-ing indictment removed Deputy Danny “Bobby” McCown from the list of defendants. McCown was originally indicted in February with the other officers on similar charg-

es of civil rights viola-tions.

The indictment identi-fies the victim as having the initials B.R.S. The officials are accused of assault, aiding and abet-ting one another in as-saulting the victim while his hands were cuffed be-hind his back on or about February 24, 2010.

Barren County Deten-tion Center records re-veal that one person with the initials of B.R.S., Billy Randall Stinnett, age 30, was processed on February 24, 2010. According to previous news accounts and arrest records, Stinnett led offi-cers from numerous law

enforcement agencies on a lengthy chase through two counties. The pur-suit ended on East Cherry Street in Glasgow at Cal-vary Baptist Church.

Stinnett, the person arrested on the date re-ferred to in the indict-ment, was charged with driving under the influ-ence, second-degree flee-ing or evading on foot, speeding in a restricted zone, reckless driving, manufacturing metham-phetamine, knowingly possessing anhydrous ammonia with the intent to manufacture metham-phetamine, first-degree possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia (sec-

ond offense), two counts of criminal mischief, two counts of first-degree fleeing or evading, 13 counts of first-degree wanton endangerment, unlawful possession of a meth precursor, two counts of second-degree assault against a po-lice officer, one count of third-degree assault against a police officer, two counts of leaving the scene of an accident, five counts of disregarding a stop sign and one count of resisting arrest.

Stinnett pleaded guilty to the charges last year and is serving a 20-year sentence at Green River Correctional Complex in Central City.
