Tasers and the law

While TASERs have

come into common useage
in many law enforcement
agencies at last count,
over 11,000 concerns
about the potentially negative impacts of their use
have prompted protests and,
more recently, research. A
pilot test released in 2014
into the effect of TASERs
on cognition and an individuals ability to understand could have significant ramifications for law
enforcement and the prosecution and defense of suspects. At the heart of the
matter is the Miranda Act.
In 1966, the United
States Supreme Court heard

LIMA Mary J. (Buettner)
Ballard, 87, a former longtime resident of Lima passed
away at the Hospice of North
Central Ohios Hospice House
in Ashland on Monday. She
moved to Richland County
in 2005, where she was close
to her daughter, Carole. For
the last five and a half years

M. (Cochran) Buettner. Her
parents, and her older siblings, Carlyle Shine, Gene,
Marjorie, and Marilyn have

few measurements. She took

great pride in the smiles of
satisfaction her clients would
have when the garment fit
perfectly, often for the first
time in their lives. In the early
1960s she traded custom
sewing and hard earned savings for a broken down old
costume rental business that
she turned into Costumes
by Ballard which thrived to
her complete delight for over
40 years.
As her nest emptied, she
sought out additional employment working for the Lima
Police Department, Helping
Hands Federal Credit Union,
Hardy & Hardy, and the Lima
Technical College before
retiring in 1989.
Mary was always involved
in community service. She
was a district coordinator with the Upward Bound
Program and worked with
the Community Action
Commission for years. One
of her favorite causes was
teaching people how to sew
at the Mizpah Mission in
South Lima where she made
many of her early and lifelong friends.
Mary loved genealogy.
Days before her passing she
was still trying to figure out
where or how this or that person came to be in Her Clan.
Over her 87 years, she never
tired of visits to her roots on
the family farm on Defiance
Trail. Her beloved barn still
stands there today, and she
never missed an opportunity
with each new grand, or great
grandchild, or anyone for that
matter, to tell her stories of
the ancestors who built Allen
County during the exciting
years before and after the
Civil War or during the hard
years of the Depression.
Mary never knew any
strangers in her life. She
would talk to anyone, bending their ears for hours while
talking about her children,
grand children, her medical ailments or procedures,
her genealogy, or any one of
her many causes. Above all
Marys family was the most
important thing in her life.
Services will begin 10 a.m.
Saturday at Chiles-Laman
Funeral and Cremation
Services, Shawnee Chapel.
Hospice Chaplain David
Matos will officiate. Burial
will follow in Walnut Grove
Cemetery, Delphos.
Friends may call from 1-3

Vintage bands, DJ reunite

for St. Johns Alumni Bash
INFORMATION
SUBMITTED
DELPHOS It will be
the proverbial trip down
memory lane when St.
Johns Alumni and friends
celebrate the schools 100th
graduating class at a dinner/
dance on Saturday.
The evening will begin
with tours of the grade and
high school buildings, giving
attendees a chance to relive
their years in the halls of old
St. Johns. The evening will
end with a chance to relive
the party times. The bands
Heritage and Another Round
along with Soundwave DJ
will cap off the celebration
with vintage music and entertainment from an all-Blue
Jay cast.
Heritage was formed in
the summer of 1977 and performed nearly every weekend, sometimes two to three
times a weekend, until 2002.
The band, consisting of Jim
Knebel class of 1967, Tim
Byrne and John Bensman
1969; Denny Grothouse 1970
and Bob Ulm 1974, played
for weddings, anniversaries,
clubs and numerous other
events.
We always prided ourselves in playing all types
of music to fit the crowd
we were playing for. When
we heard about the 100th
anniversary celebration we
thought it would be a good
way for five Blue Jay alumni to give something back.
Weve actually been practicing since mid-April, resur-

The band members included
Elaine Wehri class of 1977,
Jeff Rode 1984, Jeff Davis
1994, and Chad Rode 1997.
In 1990, Jeff Rode and Elaine

of their family bands, began
a band called Just Us, soon
joined by Jeff Davis. In
2002 Chad Rode joined the
group which then sported a

For eleven years the group
played music from the 50s
to 80s along with polkas,
square dances and many
other types of music at wed-
dings, anniversaries, festivals

and the St. Johns Benefit. As
DSJ Alumni they feel privileged to perform with fellow Alumni in Heritage and
Soundwave to celebrate the
100th graduating class at St.
Johns.
Soundwave DJ was the
creation of Ted Verhoff, class
of 1979 and Russ Belt. They
started out playing school
dances in gyms in the early
80s and eventually played
for the weddings of couples whose parents they had
played for years earlier. Now,
after 36 years, Soundwave
limits itself to only a few
select shows a year.

America prohibits an actor or producer from axing a
films director and taking over the job himself or giving
it to anyone else associated with the production. The rule
was passed after actor Clint Eastwood booted Phillip
Kaufman as director of The Outlaw Jose Wales (1976)
and assumed the job himself.
Todays questions:
What artist inspired Yves Saint Laurents 1960s dress
designs that featured bold, abstract geometric patterns?
In what part of the world did the tomato originate?
Answers in Saturdays Herald.
Todays joke:
A little girl was in church with her mother when she
started feeling ill. Mommy, she said, can we leave
now?
No, her mother replied.
Well, I think I have to throw up!
Then go out the front door and around to the back
of the church and throw up behind a bush. After
about 60 seconds the little girl returned to her seat.
Did you throw up? Mom asked.
Yes.
How could you have gone all the way to the back of
the church and returned so quickly?
I didnt have to go out of the church, Mommy.
They have a box next to the front door that says, For
the Sick.

CLC holds Mothers Day Mass

INFORMATION SUBMITTED
DELPHOS The Delphos Council,
Catholic Ladies of Columbia held its annual
Mothers Day Mass at the Nuns Chapel on May
5 with the Rev. Dennis Walsh officiating. They
then moved to the K of C Hall for the busines
meeting. President Catherine Hammons opened
the meeting with prayer. Roll call of officers was
taken and the minutes of last months meeting
were read by the Secretary Barbara Bockey.
The treasurers report was read by Mary Lou
Beckman. A report on the Card Party was given.
The council enjoyed a good turn out and all had
a good time.
Bockey made a motion to donate $50 to the
DARE Program. Raylene Fischer seconded the
motion. It was passed.
Cheer Lady Lois Blankemeyer sent Get
Well cards to ill members. The perfect atten-
dance awards for 2014 went to Mary Lou

Beckman, Hammons, Ruth Calvelage and
Leona Berelsman. The 50-50 awards went to
Bockey, Hammons and Irma Hilvers. The attendance award for tonight went to Fischer.
Members voted to donate matching funds
from the home office to a young couple from
Delphos. They are in need of financial help to
get through difficult times.
A discussion on members serving on committees twice or three times a year was brought
to the floor. This is due to low membership.
Ladies are getting older and unable to attend.
The council would like to invite all women
18 and older to join them at the K of C
Hall the first Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m.
The next meeting will begin at 6 p.m. June 2 and

The Next Generation

Students explore careers
INFORMATION
SUBMITTED
DELPHOS Jefferson
High School students in
Heather Brickner and Missy
Mcclurgs Transitions class
recently spent the day job
shadowing in the community.
Students
begin
the
Transitions class exploring possible career choices.
Then they research the job
outlook and education and
requirements. Students create a realistic budget based
on their chosen career path
and calculate their expected
wages. The budget includes
calculating the cost of the
education and if applicable
their student loan. Students
select the house and cars they
would like to buy and calculate closing fees, down payments, and monthly insurance
costs. The budget is meant

to be as realistic as possible.
Monthly necessities such as
utilities and groceries are calculated.
Students are taught the
principles of saving and
investing for retirement, setting aside income in their
monthly budget as well.
After all monthly expenses
like cell phone plans, wifi,
etc. are calculated, students
analyze the budget in Google
Sheets to see if their vision
for the future is accurate and
realistic. If not, they realize
they may need to reevaluate
their plans.
After completing job
applications, resumes, and
cover letters, students finally
explore their chosen career
path through the job-shadowing experience.

Maybe this, maybe that Local

Could it be?
Could we see it sooner rather than later?
What am I referring to, my many faithful and sundry no,
it is not a bad word or a curse! dear readers?
The fact that one Pete Rose is in discussions with Major
League Baseball and new Commissioner Rob Manfred about
what role he will be playing when the All-Star Classic comes
to the Queen City and Great American Ballpark July 14.
Perhaps this is another step in the process that began when
Manfred, shortly after taking over for the retired Bud Selig,
gave indications that
he may
be open to
Jim Metcalfe
allowing
Pete back
into the
game
in
g o o d
graces.
A
t
least
he
shows
a willingness to
re-open the
case and
see if that
was the
intention of
then-Commissioner
A. Bartlett
Giamatti when he imposed the lifetime ban in 1989.
Was it ever Giamattis intention to literally keep Rose
out of his rightful place yes, he does belong there in
Cooperstown or was there an idea for him to serve a sort of
purgatory, to go through a baseball penance, and work his way
back into the game he gave so much to?
Maybe I am reading too much into this move it could be
just simple courtesy to have him involved in some way since
he basically made his mark in Cincinnati and to NOT have
him involved in the All-Star Game would be a slap in the face.
Yet again, there may be a move behind the scenes by
ex-players, owners, etc. to at least give him the right to be
on the ballot for the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown,
New York.
After all, I know I cannot be the only one to see the hypocrisy of MLB forced though then-Commissioner Bowie Kuhn
was in the matter allowing the multiple-time cocaine abuser
(which violated the law!) Steve Howe to be on the ballot.
He will never get in but that is beside the point.
I wont get into the argument I have been making for years
about the hypocrisy of steroids users being on the ballot
there was no testing (only because they knew what would
happen if there was, the lie would be exposed and they could
not allow that to happen!), etc., etc., etc.
I wonder what would happen if MLB took a private survey
of all living former players heck, even current ones to
gauge their opinion about whether Rose should at least be
allowed on the ballot.
My guess is it would be overwhelmingly positive.
After all, players know what goes on in the clubhouse (and
outside) and they can commiserate with Mr. Rose.

in me and that means a lot.

retired
the
Bulldogs in order in the seventh as he struck out the final
two batters to end the game.
The Wildcat defense

Saturday evening.
Centerfielder
Corbin
Niese made a diving catch
in right-center to take extra
bases away from Grove designated hitter Grant Schroeder
leading off the third inning.
Wildcat shortstop Jackson
Lammers made several fine
plays in the game to take hits
away from Columbus Grove
batters.
Lammers made two fine
defensive plays in the fifth
inning as the Bulldogs had
runners at second and third
with one out. With Schroeder
at the plate, he hit a
short fly ball down
the left-field line.
Lammers raced out
into left field to make
a fine running catch
to keep the runners
at second and third
before
charging
a slow roller off the bat of
Marcos Olivo and throwing
him out at first base to end
the inning.
Lammers had a really
nice day at shortstop, Pester
said. Hes the best defensive shortstop Ive had in my
seven years. The ground balls
a couple he went in the
hole to get were outstanding plays but the biggest one
was when he went out in left
field to get that popup with a
runner on third.
I didnt know if anyone
could get there. He made it
look fairly routine.
Miller City scored the
games lone run in the first
inning as Lammers started the
game reaching on an error and
Hunter Berner lined a single
to right. After a pop-up to the
pitcher, Adam Drummelsmith
reached on a fielders choice
as Berner was retired at second base. A bloop single to
left off the bat of Adam Niese
gave the Wildcats the lead.
After the first inning,
Bulldog starter Ryan Verhoff
allowed only three more base
runners.
None of them reached
second base as the Bulldogs
turned a double play to erase
one runner.
Verhoff allowed a run on
three hits with three strikeouts and he walked just one.
Our pitcher pitched a great
ball game, Columbus Grove
coach Tony Castronova said.
Fifty-some pitches. He kept
the ball down and we played
some great defense. But their
defense was phenomenal. I
thought we hit the ball hard
but they took three or four
hits away from us.
Give credit to them and
Lehman for being a senior
leader and their defense.
Overall, I was proud of our
kids as no one expected us to
be here after making the district finals last year, so we are
very proud to be here.

ELIDA Columbus
Grove pitcher Ryan Verhoff
threw a great game for the
Bulldogs in the Division IV
district finals against Miller
City.
The junior right-hander
allowed only one run on three
hits with three strikeouts and
just one walk in his masterpiece.
Most days, that would
be good enough pitching to
advance your team to the next
level.
This past Saturday, that
performance wasnt good
enough as he faced someone
that was even more on his
game.
Verhoff had to settle for
a loss as Miller Citys Ross
Lehman was just a touch better as he threw a no-hitter
at the Bulldogs in pitching the Wildcats to a 1-0
win at Elidas Ed Sandy
Memorial Field.
Miller City (24-2), the
fourth-ranked team in the
coaches poll, advances to
the Division IV regional
semifinals Thursday against
Toledo Christian at Patrick
Henry High School at 5 p.m.
The Bulldogs season
came to a close at 15-11.
Lehman returned to the
mound Saturday to face the
Bulldogs after having pitched
4 2/3 innings Wednesday in
the Wildcats district semifinal win over Leipsic.
Going on three days rest,
the Wildcat right-hander
struck out six Bulldog batters,
walked two, hit one and he
had an error in throwing his
second career no-hitter.
Lehman didnt nearly get
to finish his no-hitter after
walking Zach Shafer with
one out in the sixth inning.
Coach Dusty Pester went to
the mound with thoughts of
removing his senior hurler
but Lehman asked to face
at least one more batter to
see if he could get out of the
inning. He did just that as he
got Ryan Verhoff to groundout to short and the Wildcats
turned a double play to end
the inning.
He was good on the
mound, Pester said. I went
out there in the sixth with
thoughts of taking him out
even with the no-no. We have
another guy that is very capable.
He (Lehman) looked at
me and said let me get a
ground ball and sure enough,
thats what he did. Then he
came out and finished the
game off. As good as he was,
so was our defense. And we
needed it as Grove put the
ball in play.
But you cant say enough
about the way Ross Lehman
threw. He threw strikes, put
himself in good positions and
good situations. He was a
senior leader today and that
was what we wanted from
him.
Lehman was thankful his
coach had the belief in him
to allow him to remain in the
game.
I think it was the fifth
(actually third) batter and he
hadnt touched my curveball
all day, Lehman said. I figured if I could get one low in
the zone, get him swinging
and get it on the ground.

8 The Herald
Elida focusing on rate increases, library

BY STEVEN COBURN-GRIFFIS
DHI Media Staff Writer
sgriffis@delphosherald.com
ELIDA Although meeting only
briefly Tuesday evening, and with two
council members absent, members of
the Elida Village Council set the stage
for major improvements to the villages
infrastructure. Of particular import were
the first readings of two ordinances
affecting water and sewer rates in the
village.
While the increases mandated in the
ordinances in and of themselves arent
especially significant financially, they
have the potential to dramatically affect
the future prosperity of the village and
its residents.
Under the provisions of the ordinances, potable water rates will increase
three percent per year for the next three
years, effective Oct. 13 of this year.
Following the same cycle, sewage rates
within the village will increase by five
percent for each of the next three years.
While citing increases charged by
the City of Lima as the cause for the
villages increase in its water rates,
Councilor Claude Paxton questioned the
need for a similar increase in wastewater
rates.
Mayor Kim Hardy explained that the
village is currently in the midst of a $2.2
renovation of its system. The increases,
he said will pay for those improvements.
In addition, he pointed out that the
current work to the system is part of a
bigger project and that investments in
improvements must continue, culminating in a completion of the project in
2023 at a cost to residents of an estimated additional $4.5 million.
Were trying to get some money
put aside so that we dont have a 20 or
25 percent increase at that time, Hardy
said. I doubt that people are going to
notice much three or five percent, but if
they see a 25 percent increase? Thats a
different story.
Council also heard and approved the
second reading of a resolution ceding
the Ohio Department of Transportation
the right to use easements within the village for the completion of state-funded
improvements to State Route 309.
Finally, council revisited a discussion
held at its last meeting concerning the
future of the Elida branch of the Lima
Public Library. At that time, council
discussed and virtually refuted any possibility of the library relocating to Town

THE
Hall. Citing significant concerns about

the structural integrity of the building,
Hardy, without completely ruling out the
possibility, expressed a disinclination to
allow such a transfer. While acknowledging the important role the library
plays within the village, he advised
council that assuming financial responsibility for the upkeep of the building
could prove fiscally irresponsible.
During this most recent meeting,
Paxton informed council that he attended the library boards May meeting as a
private citizen. After reiterating his concern and his hope that the library would
relocate or build somewhere within the
bounds of the village proper, he reported
that the board is giving serious consideration to that prospect. He stated
that board members reviewed several
properties that offer either a relatively immediate relocation opportunity or
have solid building potential.
Its surprising to see the number of
people walking to the library, Hardy
replied. Its nice to know that (the
library board) wants to find something
in the village. I think we all want that.
The next meeting of the Elida Village
Council will take place on June 11 in the
villages Town Hall.

Movie Review
"Little Ones"
The Pitch in Back - Tuneful reprise picks up a cappella tale, reunites cast. Starring Anna
Kendrick, Rebel Wilson and Hailee Steinfield.
Pitch Perfect 2
Directed by Elizabeth Banks

PG-13
Dont worry that the plot is a

shoestring of jokes and songs
stretched 10 to 15 minutes longer
than it really needed to be. Let
slide the fact that Wilsons rolypoly character, Fat Amy, would
never be called that name by any
group of good friendsunless
its in a movie like this one.
Pooh to all that, because Pitch
Perfect 2 just wants to make
you laughwhich it certainly
doesin between silly cooing
about the bonds of sisterhood
and the awkwardness of young
love. The jokes fly fast and
flip, and the humor gets spread
throughout the big cast, which
includes Hailee Steinfield,
who plays a fresh-faced Bella
newcomer; Keegan-Michael
Key, of the Comedy Central
sketch show Key and Peele, as
a cocky music producer; and
rapper Snoop Dogg, who gets
laughs just as himself, singing
Christmas carols. (Also watch
for Katey Segal; Comedy Bang
Bangs Reggie Watts, bandleader
for The Late Late Show with
James Cordon; and members of
the Green Bay Packers, riffing
on Beyoncs Bootylicious.)
Of the returning cast, Wilson,
in particular, steals every scene
in which she appears, and the
A musical comedy that costs

under $20 million to make and
racks up more than three times
that much at the box office will
likely get another chance to sing.
Thats exactly the case with
Pitch Perfect 2, a tune-filled
reprise of the its 2012 predecessor
that picks up the tale of a fictional
all-female collegiate a cappella
group, the Bellas, and reunites
almost of all of the original cast
(Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson,
Brittany Snow, Skylar Austin,
Adam Devine, Anna Camp, Ben
Platt and Ester Dean).
This time, the Bellas are
headed to a world championship
sing-off against new rivals, an
ber-haughy German group
called Das Sound Machine.
But a major wardrobe oopsy
during a performance attended
by President Obama and First
Lady caused a serious kerfluffle,
throwing off the Bellas musical
mojo. Their senior member, Beca
(Kendrick), is ready to move on
to life beyond the group.
Forgetand forgivethat
most of the actors and actresses

pushing 30, or just beyond it.
writers know it, giving her

optimum setups, plum punch
lines and plenty of room to
improvise.
Some of the funniest bits,
however, belong to John Michael
Higgins and Elizabeth Banks,
who play the commentators
covering the various singing
competitions at which the Bellas
appear. Higgins characters
snarky, sexist, racist observations
may be politically incorrect, but
they strike comedy gold.
The real star of the show,
however, is its director. Making
her feature debut behind the
camera, Elizabeth Banks joins a
very exclusive clubalongside
Angelina Jolie and Jodie
Fosterof actresses whove
moved successfully into an
almost wholly male-dominated
domain, taken control of a major
motion picture and made all the
pieces fitand worktogether.
Bravo, Ms. Banks!
Its not quite as fresh as the
original, but Pitch Perfect 2 is
still a bright, light, fem-centric
frolic of music and goofy fun for
anyone who likes their laughter
with a peppy soundtrack of
razzle-dazzle a ca-showmanship.

As a consequence of the justices upholding Ernesto Arturo Mirandas assertion that his
Constitutional rights were violated during his
arrest, the Miranda Act was empowered and
the manner in which evidence could effectively
and legally be presented in a court of law was
changed forever.
Anyone who has ever watched an Americanbased cop show on television is familiar with
Miranda. You have the right to remain silent,
is a ubiquitous staple of each and every one,
from The Streets of San Francisco to the most
recent incarnation of CSI. The list of rights rolls
on to include the right to legal representation and
the advisement that anything said is admissable
in a court of law. Finally, suspects are asked if
they understand these rights as they were read to
them. And here is where researchers are potentially throwing a wrench into the gears, at least
insofar as the use of TASERs is concerned.
In 2014, researchers at Arizona State
Universitys School of Criminology and Criminal
Justice released findings from a pilot study of the
effects of TASERs on an individuals ability to
think and understand. Published in the Journal
of Experimental Criminology, the introduction
to the studys abstract states, First, research
has consistently documented cognitive deficits
following exposure to electricity (the TASER
is an electrical device). Second, questions have
emerged regarding whether TASER exposure
impairs suspects ability to understand and waive
their Miranda rights.
To address these concerns, 21 police cadets

were recruited as test subjects for the study.

The recruits were given a battery of cognitive
tests three to four hours before tasing, five minutes after tasing and then again 24 hours later.
Researchers discovered statistically significant
declines in scores on tests given shortly after
tasing. In summary, while recognizing the deficits of the testing protocols the small number
of participants and the lack of a comparison
group being high on the list researchers concluded that the pilot test proved relevant in its
discussion of questions surrounding Miranda
rights and waivers and warranted a full study
under optimal testing protocols.
Locally, reactions to the pilot study on both
sides of the legal aisle reflected the shortcomings
acknowledged by the studys facilitators.
William Kluge, arguably the face of criminal
defense in the area, commented, Its interesting,
but thats a really small sample. As it sits, its not
pertinent.
Allen Countys prosecuting attorney, Juergen
Waldick, reacted similarly. He further added that
the studys value to his jurisdiction is limited by
how infrequently tasers are deployed.
We dont tase too many people and, as a
practical matter, I dont know of anyone who is
interrogated five minutes after their arrest, he
said. But this is good to know. It gives me an
idea of whats coming down the road.
For Allen County Sheriff Sam Crish, resolving any controversy surrounding the use of
TASERs is simple.
Do what any officer in the course of their
duty asks you to do, he said. We wouldnt need
any of these tools if people would just comply.
