The River Bank Stabilization project included four main areas, two of which are pictured here, in order to stabilize the area which was subject to erosion.

Stabilizing the river bank

POMEROY — A project
many months in the making hit
a major milestone on Tuesday
with the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the Pomeroy River
Bank Stabilization project.
Project Manager Captain
Nolan Love from the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers Huntington
District served as the Master of
Ceremonies for the event.
The construction of the initial parking lot wall/ﬂood wall
in the Village of Pomeroy was
completed in 1940, according
to Capt. Love. The wall was
rebuilt in 1951 on the downriver side by the Ohio Department of Transportation. Further
downriver, the most recent
mitigation of 600 feet was stabilized in 1974 through Section
14 funding (the same type funding used now) by the Corps of
Engineers.
“The current project which
was completed in recent
months consisted of a series of
river bank stabilization measures to include repair of the
wall and installation of stone
buttresses throughout four separate locations. Measures were
implemented to substantially
reduce erosion during high
water events and to ensure the
protection of critical infrastructure supporting the village,”
said Love.
The four main areas worked
on in the project included the

upstream portion of the parking
lot near Rite Aid, the riverbank
near Francis Florist, an area just
upstream from Village Hall and
an area near Plum Street.
In early January 2019 the
barges of equipment, including cranes arrived in Pomeroy
to begin the work. Work was
hindered at times by high water
levels in the area.
Col. Jason Evers, Commander
of the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Huntington District,
spoke of the project and the
work that was needed to stabilize the roadway (Main Street)
which is the main source of
transportation in the area.
Of the 8,000 linear feet of
river bank area examined,
approximately 2,200 linear feet
were in need of protection, said
Col. Evers. He explained that

POMEROY — The
Meigs County Community Prevention Coalition received training on
human trafﬁcking issues
during their monthly
meeting last week.
Heather Mitchell from
the Survivor Advocacy
Outreach Program, located in Athens, spoke to the
committee about signs of
human trafﬁcking in the
area as well as caring for
victims. Many counties
in Ohio have individual
human trafﬁcking prevention groups, however,
Mitchell said there are
not many in Southeastern
Ohio. She believes this
is because there is little
awareness of the issue.
Mitchell said Ohio
ranks among the most
prevalent state for human
trafﬁcking to occur. The
types of human trafﬁcking for our area are sex
and labor, according to
Mitchell.
The three things that
need to be present for a
case to be trafﬁcking are
force, fraud and coercion.

Body discovered in Mason
By Mindy Kearns
Special to the Register

MASON — The body of a
man was found early Tuesday
in Mason by a woman who was
walking her dog.
Police Chief Colton McKinney
said the woman came upon the

body between 7:30 and 8 a.m.
on Front Street.
McKinney said the department is not investigating the
incident as any kind of foul
play at this time, as it looked as
though the man experienced a
medical emergency. He said the
body was sent to the medical

examiner, where an autopsy will
be performed.
The name of the deceased is
not being released at this time,
pending notiﬁcation to relatives.

SAN DIEGO — A
military jury acquitted
a decorated Navy SEAL
of premeditated murder
Tuesday in the killing of
a wounded Islamic State
captive under his care in
Iraq in 2017.
Special Operations
Chief Edward Gallagher
was cleared of all charges except for posing for
photos with the dead
body of the captive in a
verdict that is a major
blow to military prosecutors.
Gallagher reacted with
“tears of joy, emotion,
freedom and absolute
euphoria,” defense lawyer Marc Mukasey said.
“Sufﬁce it to say
this is a huge victory,”
Mukasey said outside
court. “It’s as huge
weight off the Gallaghers.”
Defense lawyers said
Gallagher was framed
by disgruntled platoon
members who fabricated
the allegations to oust
their chief. They said
there was no physical
evidence to support the
allegations.
The prosecution said
Gallagher’s own text
messages and photos
incriminated him. They
included photos of Gallagher holding the dead
militant up by the hair
and clutching a knife in

Tuesday the jury acquitted the decorated Navy SEAL in the stabbing death of a wounded teenage
Islamic State prisoner and the wounding of two civilians in Iraq in 2017.

his other hand.
A text message Gallagher sent while deployed
said “got him with my
hunting knife.”
The prosecution
asserted the proof of
Gallagher’s guilt was in
his own words, his own
photos and the testimony of his fellow troops,
while defense lawyers
called the case a “mutiny” by entitled, junior
SEALs trying to oust
a demanding chief and
repeatedly told the jury
that there was no body,
no forensic evidence and
no blood found on the
knife.
The case gave a rare
public view of a deep
division in the insular
and highly revered SEAL

community. Both sides
told jurors that witnesses
had lied on the stand
and it was their duty to
push through the evidence to ﬁnd the truth.
Gallagher, 40, did not
take the stand.
The panel of ﬁve
Marines and two sailors,
including a SEAL, had to
weigh whether Gallagher, a 19-year veteran on
his eighth deployment,
went off the rails and
fatally stabbed the war
prisoner on May 3, 2017,
as a kind of trophy kill,
or was the victim of allegations fabricated after
the platoon returned to
San Diego to stop him
from getting a Silver
Star and being promoted. Under the military

system, two-thirds of
the jury need to agree
to convict, or in this
case ﬁve of seven jurors,
or they must acquit.
Military juries also have
the option to convict on
lesser charges, such as
attempted murder.
Gallagher was also
charged with attempted
murder in the shootings
of two Iraqi civilians,
and four other charges
that include the unlawful
discharge of his ﬁrearm
by shooting at noncombatants, wrongfully posing with a human casualty, impeding an investigation by discouraging
platoon members from
reporting his criminal
actions and retaliating
against those who did.

THEIR VIEW

Unfortunately,
we are a nation
of noise addicts
There are scenes in movies that dwell on
the peaceful and serene. A meadow is in the
background, with tall grass wafting gently in
the breeze. The sun is shining
(Remember the sun?). Fluffy clouds
are in the sky. The only sound is
birds singing happy little tweety
songs. Sometimes, not often, this
is what is shown right before something awful happens, like an axe
murderer comes on and does his
(it’s never a her) thing or FrankenMarla
stein’s monster rampages through
Boone
Contributing the village. But we’re not going to
talk about something awful happencolumnist
ing next. We’re going to talk about
how nearly impossible this scene
is to duplicate. Oh, you can ﬁnd meadows and
wafting grass and sun (okay, maybe not lately),
and ﬂuffy clouds. You can even ﬁnd a song bird
if you listen hard enough. What you can’t ﬁnd
is the otherwise quiet place. We have become a
nation of the noise-addicted.
Noise is everywhere and it’s becoming more
and more difﬁcult to get away from it. I like to
hike the ﬁelds out in the country. I’m sure there
are places in the world you can go and get away
from trafﬁc noise but Miami County isn’t one of
them. Somewhere in the background, wherever
you go, is the sound of large trucks and small
cars and motorcycles and none of them seem to
have mufﬂers. Or the ability to downshift without replicating the Indy 500.
It’s a given that food shopping has become a
noise-intensive activity. If the overhead speaker
isn’t repeatedly reminding Produce that they
have a call waiting on line two, then someone’s
idea of music is playing. I have a friend who
majored in marketing at Miami. This guy could
sell sand to Iran. I’ve never asked him, but I feel
sure some handsomely remunerated marketing
guru did an enormous amount of research to
determine just what sort of music induces people to buy more celery than they will ever use.
This is the music that plays in grocery stores.
When Christmas carols aren’t playing, that is.
And they start playing in about June. Department stores are guilty of the same sin, of course.
They just play music that induces people to buy
more shoes than they can ever wear. I am living proof this ploy actually works. Again, this is
when Christmas carols aren’t playing. In department stores, I believe the start date for this is
January ﬁrst.
There used to be isolated islands of calm
where you could find quiet. The doctor’s waiting room was one. The only sound there was
the soft swishy sound of 3-year-old magazine
pages being turned and the occasional thump
when patient died and fell off his chair while he
was waiting to be cured. Now waiting rooms
are equipped with giant televisions that are
tuned to the most annoying channel available.
It’s usually Dr. Phil. There is simply nothing
that will make a person pray for sensory deprivation like Dr. Phil. Dr. Phil was invented by
the same person who invented the music in
department stores.
Gas stations used to be another place a person could get a little peace and quiet while
slowly going broke. You just know it was too
good to last. As though the price of gas isn’t
traumatic enough, ﬁlling stations have now
installed something resembling a television
on each pump. I say something resembling a
television because, as awful as TV is, even it
doesn’t remotely approach being as annoying as
these blaring, mindless, inescapable, inane …
things on gas pumps. And once again, the poor
customer is a captive audience. Most of us are
unwilling to commute by bicycle even when it’s
not subfreezing. Therefore, most of us drive
cars and if there is one immutable truth about
the internal combustion engine, it is that is it
always hungry. So off we go to the gas station
where almost all of our senses are assaulted
along with our wallets. And these TV things are
loud. Really loud. Painfully loud. Unfortunately,
there is no getting away from them because
the minute you put your trust in the automatic
shut-off and walk away, the ground is going to
saturated in a petroleum product that is doing
its best to return to the earth. Except there’s a
slab of concrete in the way.
Because it is a relatively silent place to get
information (even libraries aren’t quiet any
more), Google was my source for ﬁnding the
scientiﬁc word for too much noise. You know
there has to be one. Instead, I found a great
phrase by Ron Chepesiuk: Decibel hell. Decibel
hell is the car with the booming bass next to
you at the stop light. Decibel hell is music in
elevators. Decibel hell is that device on the gas
pump. Please try not to rustle the paper too
loudly as you turn the page.

THEIR VIEW

Our legacy of liberty
We charge you, King
George, with “a long train
of abuses” designed to
“establish an absolute tyranny over these states.”
Our 1776 Declaration of
Independence was also a
Declaration of Deﬁance,
detailing the high crimes
and misdemeanors of
a tyrannical despot.
The king was accused
of “obstructing justice,
imposing taxes, and cutting off our trade.”
This spirit of deﬁance
can be traced back to a
colonial newspaper editor
who shut down his paper
rather than comply with
the Stamp Act of 1765.
A ﬁnal front-page editorial stated his case for
freedom.
“Liberty is one of the
greatest blessings which
human beings can possibly enjoy. When we are
deprived of this earthly
blessing, we are fettered
with the Chains of inimical servitude…A day, an
hour, of virtuous liberty
is worth a whole eternity
of bondage…May (our)
future posterity reap the
beneﬁts (of liberty),..and
may we bless the hands
which were the instruments of procuring it.”
Those hands included
the 56 signers of the
Declaration of Independence who “mutually

Fences were often

Holter said many small
distilleries were distributed throughout the township. Farmers used the
crops they grew to make
whiskey, and since there
were no internal revenue
laws or taxes it was very
cheap.
“They also made peach

sold for 25 cents a gallon,

fruit was dried for winter

“If you didn’t have
enough put aside for
winter you would starve.

The roadway was closed as a result of the crash
and is still under investigation.
According to a press release from the Post, Richard Elliot, 60, of Gallipolis was reportedly struck
by a 2015 Ford Transit driven by Karagyoz Shefka,

when a person is trafﬁcked, the acts are forced
by the family — especially in low-income areas.
Mitchell said anyone is vulnerable to become a
victim of human trafﬁcking, but those that are
most vulnerable include impoverished people,
child runaways, children in foster care and immigrants.
Some red ﬂags that may indicate a human trafﬁcking situation include restricted communication, basic actions being controlled by someone
else, signs of physical abuse, confusion of where
they are, multiple sexually transmitted infections,
malnourished, etc. A victim may also show fear,
positive attitude toward trafﬁcker, anxiety, depression, etc.
Mitchell said if someone is being trafﬁcked, it is
important to validate the realness and seriousness
of the situation. Always call the national human
trafﬁcking hotline at 1-888-373-7888 if you witness or suspect trafﬁcking.
In other business, the committee was reminded
of the following upcoming events,
-July 20 at the fairgrounds from 10 a.m. to 2
p.m. is “Safe Kids, Healthy Kids.” This event is
organized through the health department and is

Jackets look to
reassemble pieces
after free agent losses
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Columbus Blue
Jackets watched three of their best players leave
for other teams on the opening day of free agency
and did relatively little to ﬁll the holes.
When the dust settled after Monday’s comings and goings, many questions remained about
whether general manager Jarmo Kekalainen will
be able reassemble enough pieces for Columbus
to make a run at the playoffs for a fourth straight
season.
The success of the team in 2019-20 will depend
on a player or combination of players ﬁlling the
offensive void left by departed forward Artemi
Panarin. And it will require last year’s backup
goalie Joonas Korpisalo — or someone else — to
be nearly as good as two-time Vezina Trophy winner Sergei Bobrovsky.
Panarin, who was considered a long shot to
re-sign with Columbus after two seasons, inked a
seven-year deal with the New York Rangers worth
$81.5 million. Bobrovsky went to the Florida Panthers after seven years in Columbus, and center
Matt Duchene, picked up at the February trade
deadline, moved on to Nashville.
Forward Ryan Dzingel, defenseman Adam
McQuaid and goalie Keith Kinkaid — all acquired
at the deadline and now unrestricted free agents
— are not likely to stay with Columbus, which
also lost its top executive, John Davidson, to the
Rangers’ front ofﬁce.
The Blue Jackets did pick up free-agent forward Gustav Nyquist from the San Jose Sharks.
The Swedish winger was dealt by the Detroit
Red Wings at the deadline and helped the Sharks
advance to the Western Conference ﬁnals. He
totaled 22 goals and 38 assists last season.
Kekalainen has said he wants only players who
are happy to play in Columbus. Nyquist said that
includes him.
“I think it’s a team that has some really good
pieces, some young pieces and also some great
veteran leaders, and a team that’s really heading in
the right direction,” Nyquist said. “You saw that in
last year’s playoffs. Those were things that really
excited me.”
Nyquist said the departure of some of the
stars doesn’t concern him.
“I’m sure the media will talk about that,” he
said. “But I think we want to prove that there is
going to be opportunity for other guys who are
going to try to come in and ﬁll some of those
holes, and I’m sure everyone will be excited to
keep building on what they’ve done here for the
last few years. I have no doubt in my mind that
we’re going to be a really good team.”
Kekalainen had declined to deal Panarin
and Bobrovsky at the February trade deadline,
even though he knew there was scant chance of
re-signing either. Instead, he added Duchene,
Dzingel and others for an “all in” playoff run.
That paid off when Columbus won its ﬁrst
postseason series in franchise history, stunning
the mighty Tampa Bay Lightning with a fourgame sweep. The Blue Jackets then lost to Boston in six games in the second round.
Kekalainen said he knew some of those players might leave, but “then we just move forward
with what we have and start building other
ways.”
That increases the reliance on scoring forwards Cam Atkinson, Pierre Luc-Dubois and

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Tyler Skaggs throws to the Oakland Athletics on Saturday in Anaheim, Calif.

Angels, MLB mourn Skaggs
ARLINGTON, Texas
(AP) — Tyler Skaggs
grew up rooting for the
Los Angeles Angels, and
got to pitch for his favorite team.
The left-hander’s next
start for the Angels was
supposed to be on the
Fourth of July holiday,
during a weeklong trip
to Texas that began with
Skaggs and his teammates proudly posing in
cowboy hats and Western
attire by their plane.
Skaggs died Monday,
when the 27-year-old
pitcher was found unresponsive in his Texas
hotel room. The scheduled series opener against
the Rangers was postponed.
“Words cannot express
the deep sadness we feel
right now. Our thoughts
and prayers are with
(wife) Carli and their
families. Remembering
him as a great teammate,
friend, and person who
will forever remain in our
hearts… we love you, 45,”
All-Star center ﬁelder
Mike Trout wrote on
Twitter.
Angels general manager
Billy Eppler described
himself as being “in utter
shock and disbelief.”
The team, in a statement, called Skaggs “an
important part of the
Angels Family” and said
its thoughts and prayers
were with his wife and
entire family “during this
devastating time.”
Police in Southlake,
Texas, said they were
investigating but no
foul play was suspected.
Skaggs was pronounced

dead at the scene after
police responded to a
call at the hotel Monday
afternoon.
Eppler, manager
Brad Ausmus and team
president John Carpino
planned to address the
media Tuesday afternoon,
before the Angels and
Rangers were scheduled
to play. Texas said there
will be a moment of
silence for Skaggs prior
to the ﬁrst pitch.
Baseball Commissioner
Rob Manfred said he was
“deeply saddened” by
Skaggs’ death.
“We will support the
Angels’ organization
through this most difﬁcult period, and we will
make a variety of resources available to Tyler’s
teammates and other
members of the baseball
family,” Manfred said in a
statement.
With the team out of
town, dozens of fans went
to Angel Stadium and
gathered out front in the
hours after Skaggs’ death
was announced. They left
ﬂowers, hats, baseballs,
signs, photos and other
memorabilia in a makeshift memorial mound.
Sadly, the poignant display strongly resembled
the fan-created memorial for Nick Adenhart
in 2009 after the rookie
pitcher was killed by a
drunk driver. That tribute
stayed out front of the
Big A through the summer.
Near the entrance of
the team’s hotel in Texas,
a fan with an Angels
jersey sat on a rock wall
with a bouquet of ﬂowers

attached to a balloon that
read “thank you.”
Skaggs, who got married last December and
would have turned 28 on
July 13, had been a regular in the Angels’ starting
rotation since late 2016,
when he returned from
Tommy John surgery. He
struggled with injuries
repeatedly in that time
but was 7-7 with a 4.29
ERA in 15 starts this
season to help an injuryplagued rotation.
In his cowboy-themed
Instagram post on Sunday, Skaggs captioned the
team photo with “Howdy
y’all.” The Angels go to
Houston this weekend
after their series against
the Rangers.
“Some guys that didn’t
even know him were
visibly shaken,” Texas
manager Chris Woodward
said, describing the team
meeting when his players
were told about Skaggs
as “one of those moments
where you’re just kind of
numb.”
Skaggs was in the
same draft class with
Trout in 2009, the year
the 22-year-old Adenhart
was killed. Adenhart was
coming off his ﬁrst start
that season, his fourth big
league game.
Jose Fernandez, a twotime All-Star pitcher for
the Miami Marlins, was
killed in a boating crash
near Miami Beach, Florida, in September 2016.
He was 24.
Darryl Kile, who
pitched in the majors for
12 seasons, was on the
road with the St. Louis
Cardinals when he died

in his Chicago hotel room
at age 33 in June 2002.
Albert Pujols, now a
member of the Angels,
was Kile’s teammate then.
The Rangers said Monday’s game wouldn’t be
made up this week. The
Angels return to Texas
for another series in midAugust.
Skaggs grew up in
Santa Monica, on the
west side of the sprawling
Los Angeles metroplex,
as a fan of the Angels
instead of the closer
Dodgers. He was drafted
40th overall after he graduated from Santa Monica
High School, where his
mother, Debbie, was the
longtime softball coach.
The Angels traded
Skaggs in 2010 to Arizona, where he started his
big league career with 13
appearances over two seasons before Los Angeles
reacquired him in December 2013. He made a
career-high 24 starts last
year, but missed time in
April this season because
of a sprained ankle before
coming back strong.
Before he was traded
to Arizona, Skaggs
roomed in the low
minors with Trout when
they were on the same
team in Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, in 2010.
Cleveland Indians
pitcher Trevor Bauer,
who played with Skaggs
in the Diamondbacks
organization, tweeted:
“We came up together.
We won together. We
laughed and celebrated
together. Today, we all
lose and mourn together.”

Browns speak with
suspended RB Hunt
after argument near bar

OVP SPORTS BRIEFS

CLEVELAND (AP) — The Browns spoke to
suspended running back Kareem Hunt after he was
involved in an incident outside a downtown bar.
The 23-year-old Hunt, who will serve an eight-game
NFL ban this season for off-ﬁeld physical altercations,
got into an argument with a friend late Saturday
night. TMZ.com obtained a video taken near the
Barley House, a popular night spot, of Hunt talking
to ofﬁcers. During the brief clip, one of them says to
Hunt: “I saw him push you.”
Hunt was not arrested and Sgt. Jennifer Ciaccia, a
Cleveland police spokeswoman, said no reports were
ﬁled.
Browns spokesman Peter Jean-Baptiste said the
club was aware of the incident, talked to Hunt and
will have no further comment.
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy declined to comment.
While the incident appears inconsequential, Hunt
could be criticized for poor judgment given his precarious state. Browns general manager John Dorsey, who
drafted Hunt with Kansas City in 2017, has vowed a
“zero-tolerance” policy with the star back.
Hunt received his eight-game penalty from the
league for his violent behavior, which included him
shoving and kicking a woman in the hallway of a
Cleveland hotel in February 2018.
The Chiefs said Hunt lied to them about the incident and the team released him in December during
a playoff push. Hunt led the league in rushing as a
rookie.
Dorsey, though, felt Hunt deserved another chance
and signed him February, saying he knew the player
well and wanted to help him.
At the team’s minicamp in May, Hunt spoke to
reporters for the ﬁrst time since joining the Browns
and said he told Dorsey he could trust him. That
same week, Dorsey and new Browns coach Freddie
Kitchens surprised Hunt when the player was being
baptized.
Dorsey has insisted Hunt has followed a program
set up for him by the team. He’s received counseling and spoken to youth groups about staying out of
trouble.

MLB batters set HR record
NEW YORK (AP) —
A month after setting a
record for most home
runs in a month, big
league batters did it again
and are on pace to shatter
the season mark.
The Elias Sports
Bureau said Monday that
batters hit 1,142 home
runs in June, seven more
than in May.
Five of the top six home
run months have been
in the last three years.
August 2017 is third at
1,119, followed by June
2017 (1,101), May 2000
(1,069) and May 2017
(1,060).
A total of 3,421 home
runs were hit in 1,255

games through Sunday, an
average of 2.73 per game.
That is up 19% from the
2.28 average through
June last year, when 2,822
home runs were hit in
1,236 games. Batters are
on pace to hit 6,624 home
runs — well above the
record 6,105 set in 2017
and up from 5,585 last
year.
Milwaukee’s Christian
Yelich leads the major
leagues with 29 home
runs, followed by New
York Mets rookie Peter
Alonso (28) and the Los
Angeles Dodgers’ Cody
Bellinger (27).

first time, whiffs remain
ahead: 21,871 to 21,554.
While there were more
strikeouts than hits in
March (949 to 848) and
April (6,799 to 6,371),
hitting has picked up
in the warmer months.
There were 7,170 hits to
7,137 strikeouts in May
and 7,165 hits to 6,986
strikeouts in June.
The major league batting average was .251
through June. That is up
three percentage points
from last year’s average,
the lowest since 1972
— the year before the
American League started using the designated
hitter.
