Zimmermans actions. Many of the pertinent questions remain unclear: What was in Zimmermans mind when he began to follow Martin in the gated community where he lived? How did the confrontation between the two begin? Whose screams for help were captured on 911 calls? And why did Zimmerman feel that deadly force was warranted? Another opportunity for answers isnt likely to come until a hearing later this year in which Zimmerman is expected to claim the shooting was justified under Floridas stand your ground law. Zimmermans attorney, Mark OMara, didnt return a phone call seeking comment Thursday. Martins autopsy indicated that medical examiners found THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, when they tested Martins blood and urine. The amount described in the autopsy report is such a low level that it would have played no See MARTIN, page 2

OBITUARY
Donna Summer to not only a musical revolution, but a cultural one a time when sex, race, fashion and drugs were being explored and exploited with freedom like never before in the United States. Her rise was inseparable from discos itself, even though she remained popular for years after the genre she helped invent had died. She won a Grammy for best rock vocal performance for Hot Stuff, a fiery guitar-based song that represented her shift from disco to more rock-based sounds, and created another kind of anthem with She Works Hard for the Money, this time for womens rights. Elton John said in a statement that Summer was more than the Queen of Disco. Her records sound as good today as they ever did. That she has never been inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is a total disgrace especially when I see the second-rate talent that has been inducted, he said. She is a great friend to me and to the Elton John AIDS Foundation and I will miss her greatly. Summer may not have liked

the title and later became a born-again Christian, but many remembered her best for her early years, starting with the sinful Love to Love You Baby. Released in 1975, a breakthrough hit for Summer and for disco, it was a legend of studio ecstasy and the genres ultimate sexual anthem. Summer came up with the idea of the song and first recorded it as a demo in 1975, on the condition that another singer perform it commercially. But Casablanca Records president Neil Bogart liked the track so much that he suggested to producer Giorgio Moroder they re-record it, and make it longer what would come to be known as a disco disc. What started as a scandal became a classic. The song was later sampled by LL Cool J, Timbaland and Beyonce, who interpolated the hit for her jam Naughty Girl. It was also Summers U.S. chart debut and the first of 19 No. 1 dance hits between 1975 and 2008 second only to Madonna. Summer, real name LaDonna Adrian Gaines, was born in 1948 in Boston. She was raised on gospel music and became the soloist in her church choir by age 10. Before disco, she had already reinvented herself several times. She sang Motown songs with local groups in Boston as a teenager, then dropped out of school in the late 1960s and switched to pyschedelic rock after hearing Janis Joplin. An attempt to get a part in the musical Hair led her to get the principal role in Munich. She stayed in Germany for five years, worked in other productions and modeled. Meanwhile, she was performing in operas, singing backup for Three Dog Night and other groups and releasing songs of her own. A marriage to Helmuth Sommer didnt last, but the singer did hold on to her exhusbands last name, changing it to Summer. By 1974, she had met producers Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte and released her first album, Lady of the Night, to success in Europe. Then came Love to Love You Baby, her memorable U.S. debut. Through the rest of the disco era she burned up the charts: She was the only artist to have three consecutive double-LPs hit No. 1, Live and More, Bad Girls and On the Radio. She was also the first female artist with four No. 1 singles in a 13-month period, according to the Rock Hall of Fame, where she was a nominee this year but was passed over.

behavior, said Larry Kobilinsky, a professor of forensic science at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York. This kind of level can be seen days after somebody smokes, Kobilinsky said. If it comes up in the case, I would be surprised. It wouldnt benefit the defense, it wouldnt benefit the prosecution, and if the defense tried to bring it up, the judge would keep it out. A police report shows the 17-year-old had been shot once in the chest and had been pronounced dead at the scene. The autopsy says the fatal shot was fired from no more than 18 inches away. The evidence supporting Zimmermans defense includes a photo showing the neighborhood watch volunteer with a bloody nose on the night of the fight. A paramedic report says Zimmerman had a 1-inch laceration on his head and forehead abrasion. Bleeding tenderness to his nose, and a small laceration to the back of his head. All injuries have minor bleeding, paramedic Michael Brandy wrote about Zimmermans injuries in the report. Whether Zimmerman was injured in the Feb. 26 altercation with Martin has been a key question. The 28-year-old has claimed self-defense and said he only fired because the unarmed teenager attacked him. Zimmerman was not arrested for weeks because he invoked Floridas stand your ground law, which does not require a person to retreat in the face of a serious threat. He was released on bail and is in hiding while he awaits trial on a second-degree murder charge. He has pleaded not guilty.

TOLEDO (AP) An Ohio animal shelter has received 132 applications from people who want to adopt six bulldog-mix puppies found in a suitcase next to a trash bin last month. The executive director of Toledo Area Humane Society told The Blade he had expected the number to be higher based on the amount of phone calls from people across the country inquiring about the pups and their mother, Maddie. The humane society will randomly draw from the applicants and screen them to make sure they meet certain standards. The puppies will be available for adoption beginning Tuesday on a first-come-first serve basis to applicants. The adoption fee for the puppies and their mother is $200 each.

COLUMBUS A former treasurer for more than a dozen Ohio charter schools was charged Thursday with embezzling more than $470,000 in federal education funds over six years. U.S. Attorney Carter Stewart filed an embezzlement count against 57-yearold Carl W. Shye Jr. in U.S. District Court. Shye faces up to 10 years in prison, up to $250,000 in fines and three years of supervised release, and would have to return the money. Shye, of New Albany, handled the finances of former charter, or community, schools in Columbus, Youngstown and Dayton.

The five have been locked up without bond since their arrest last month. Attorneys for Baxter and Stevens have asked the judge to order a probation department investigation of their homes to determine if the locations would be acceptable in the event they are released with electronic monitors. The five had been associated with Occupy Cleveland, but organizers of the movement have tried to distance the group from the men. They say the five didnt represent it or its nonviolent philosophy.

Part of the reason for the drop is that employers have added a million jobs over the past five months. But it has also declined because some people gave up looking for work. The government only counts people as unemployed if they are actively looking for a job. The pace of hiring slowed sharply in March and April, to an average of 135,000 jobs per month. That raised fears that the job market is weakening. But economists have cautioned that a warm winter led companies to move up some hiring and accelerate other activity that normally wouldnt occur until spring. That gave the appearance that the economy had strengthened in January and February and weakened in early spring. And temporary layoffs stemming from spring holidays likely pushed unemployment benefit applications higher in April, economists noted.
U.S. combat role was winding down. In a series of votes late Thursday, the Republicancontrolled House narrowly passed an amendment preventing federal agencies from requiring contractors to sign project labor agreements to secure federal contracts. The agreements require contractors to negotiate with union officials, recognize union wages and generally abide by collective-bargaining agreements. The vote was 211-209. Clamoring for fiscal austerity, House Republicans backed deficit-cutting legislation last summer that calls for a $487 billion cut in projected defense spending over 10 years. They abandoned that plan in March, embracing a budget that adds billions of dollars for the military while slashing funds for some safety-net programs for the poor. The $642 billion spending blueprint $8 billion more than last years agreement provides funds for aircraft, ships, weapons, the war in Afghanistan and a 1.7 percent pay raise for military personnel. The House Armed Services Committee, in crafting its version of the budget, snubbed the Pentagon and military leaders on a range of issues, rejecting calls for another round of domestic base closings and increases in monthly health care premiums for working-age military retirees.

Super PACs have played a major role in this years campaign already, spending many millions of dollars on ads assailing candidates in the Republican primaries though with no legal connection to the rival contenders they aimed to help. Huge additional sums are expected to be spent before November by groups partial to Obama and Romney but barred from coordinating efforts with the candidates campaigns. Reaction from the Obama team was swift to the Ending Spending proposal. To launch a multimillion dollar divisive attack campaign is not what the American people want, White House Spokesman Jay Carney said. There are moments when you have to stand up and say thats not the right way to go. Obama campaign manager Jim Messina, commenting before Romney denounced the plan in an interview with Townhall.com, accused the Republican of reacting tepidly in a moment that required moral leadership in standing up to the very extreme wing of his own party.

The immigrants staying put in the U.S. for now include Narcisa Marcelino, 34, a single mother who lives with her two daughters, ages 10 and 5, in Martinsburg, W.Va. After crossing into the U.S. from Mexico in 2000, she followed her brother to the eastern part of the state just outside the Baltimore-Washington region. The Martinsburg area is known for hiring hundreds of migrants annually to work in fruit orchards. Its Hispanic growth climbed from 14 percent to 18 percent between 2000 and 2005 before shrinking last year to 3.3 percent, still above the national average. Marcelino says she sells food from her home to make ends meet for her family and continues to hope that one day she will get a hearing with immigration officials to stay legally in the U.S. She aspires to open a restaurant and is learning English at a community college so she can help other Spanish-language speakers.

Paws to Consider
BY DR. JOHN JONES
COMMUNITY
frightened mouse crawled underneath Fred, who never moved. Within seconds, Watson somehow ricocheted off some boards, scaled a wire panel, hoisted himself over the lipped edge of the mow, pushed Fred aside and did what we could not. It wasnt a proud moment for either of us. Watson didnt care, though. He accepted both Fred and me for our rodent foibles. In turn, Fred never judged him for his murderous passion. I guess thats what friends do. Watson passed away several years ago beside a rose bush behind our garage and was buried on the spot. Five months ago, we diagnosed Fred with kidney failure, a common condition of older cats. For the last few weeks of his life, Fred spent a great deal of time around the grave. It became his new, favorite hangout. Four weeks ago, Fred joined Watson on the other side of the bush. Best friends in life, they are together again beneath the rose and, I hope, wherever kitty heaven is.

INDIANAPOLIS LeBron James grabbed a seat on Miamis bench, lowered his head and stared down at the floor. Way down. The Heat are in a hole. Roy Hibbert had 19 points and 18 rebounds, George Hill scored 20 and Danny Granger 17 as the Pacers, showing more balance, toughness and togetherness than favored Miami, throttled the malfunctioning Heat 94-75 Thursday night in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. Overlooked during the regular season and given little chance to upset the reigning East champions, the Pacers took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-7 series. Game 4 is Sunday at raucous Bankers Life Fieldhouse. James scored 22 16 in the first half before wearing down and Mario Chalmers added 25 for Miami. However, Dwyane Wade, banged up and possibly slowed by a more serious injury, scored only five on 2-of-13 shooting for the Heat, already missing forward Chris Bosh because of a strained abdominal muscle and not expected to return for this series. Its obvious he wasnt himself. James said of Wade. Does he want to play better? Of course. Hes one of the best players in the world. Wade didnt play like one and he also had an angry exchange during a timeout in
goal attempts, made two turnovers and ran around like a first-time rookie and not a superstar playing in his 95th career postseason game. Wade finally made his first field goal with 10:22 left in the third to put Miami up 47-45 but the Pacers went on a 10-1 run with Granger dropping a 3-pointer in front of the Heat bench to make it 55-48 and then playfully skipping down the sideline as Miami called a timeout. Spoelstra made a dramatic change to his starting lineup, putting Shane Battier at power forward and using bench-riding center Dexter Pittman in place of Udonis Haslem and Ronny Turiaf in the first five along with James, Wade and Chalmers a group he played together for just nine minutes during the regular season. The moves smelled of desperation and maybe Spoelstra sensed his team was in more trouble than he wanted to admit.
SPURS 105, CLIPPERS 88 SAN ANTONIO Tony Parker scored 22 points on his 30th birthday, Tim Duncan had 18 and San Antonio beat fading Los Angeles, pushing its winning streak to 16 and taking a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference semifinal. Chris Paul responded to his awful Game 1 with only a slightly better encore, scoring 10 points as the Clippers now head home desperate to steer out of whats starting to get the feel of a sweep. Blake Griffin led the Clippers with 20 points. His plan to manage his ailing knee so the All-Star would have enough steam for the fourth quarter proved moot, as both teams emptied their benches with another Spurs blowout assured. Game 3 is Saturday in Los Angeles. Boris Diaw added 16 points and Danny Green had 13 for the Spurs. Manu Ginobili scored 10 and was held scoreless in the second half.

DELPHOS St. Johns senior wrestler Logan Heiing wants to major in pharmacy for his college program. Perhaps that made his college choice an easy one. He made it official Thursday as he announced his intention to head to Ohio Northern University in Ada and wrestle for Polar Bear head man Ron Beaschler. I want to go through their pharmacy school and they have one of the best programs around. I was also interested in the University of Findlay because they also have a very good program, Heiing began. When I went for my visit and was interviewed for pharmacy school, I knew then I was going there. It just seemed right, from the coaches to the program leaders to everything. Its pretty close to home and the small size and atmosphere was what I also liked. It also helped that both of my parents, Larry and Deann, both went to ONU. Heiing was a 3-time district qualifier and 3-time Lima Coaches Association AllStar. He became the first district champion since 1990 (at Kettering); was voted MVP by his teammates in 2011-12 in leading the team in pins his junior and senior years and led the team in wins and takedowns. He doesnt pretend that things will be easy, either, though he earned All-Ohio Academic honors this year from the Ohio High School Wrestling Coaches Association and is a member of the National Honor Society. When I talked to them, they told me that a wrestling/ pharmacy double was very difficult but not impossible. They made it clear that though school comes first, they will work with me to get through it, he added. At this point, I will be wrestling at the 197pound weight class. They have a Division III national champion at 184 and the next up is heavyweight, so Im locked in at 197. They e-mailed me their summer workout program and weights are a big part

In his latest address to American bishops visiting Rome, Pope Benedict XVI stressed that Catholic educators should remain true to the faith -- a reminder issued just in time for another tense season of commencement addresses. No, the pope did not mention Georgetown University by name when discussing the Catholic campus culture wars. Yes, he did mention the law requiring professors who teach Catholic theology to obtain a Canon 812 mandatum (mandate) document from their bishops to certify that they are truly Catholic theologians. Many American bishops have cited a growing recognition on the part of Catholic colleges and universities of the need to reafrm their distinctive identity in delity to their founding ideals and the Churchs mission. ... Much remains to be done, especially in such basic areas as compliance with the mandate laid down in Canon 812 for those who teach theological disciplines, said Benedict, who taught theology at the university level in Germany. The importance of this canonical norm as a tangible expression of ecclesial communion and solidarity in the Churchs educational apostolate becomes all the more evident when we consider the confusion created by instances of apparent dissidence between some representatives of Catholic institutions and the Churchs pastoral leadership: such discord harms the Churchs witness and, as experience has shown, can easily be exploited to compromise her authority and her freedom. Benedicts remarks to the bishops of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming came during the fourth of ve
tution on education issued by Pope John Paul II entitled Ex Corde Ecclesiae (From the Heart of the Church). That document contains numerous statements that trouble American academics, including this one: Catholic teaching and discipline are to inuence all university activities, while the freedom of conscience of each person is to be fully respected. Any ofcial action or commitment of the University is to be in accord with its Catholic identity. That captures pretty much everything, noted Patrick J. Reilly, president of the conservative Cardinal Newman Society. Thus, in his address to the visiting American bishops, the pope stressed that Catholic universities are supposed to be helping the church defend its teachings, in an age in which they are constantly under attack. The goal, said Benedict, is for Catholic schools to provide a bulwark against the alienation and fragmentation which occurs when the use of reason is detached from the pursuit of truth and virtue. ... Catholic institutions have a specic role to play in helping to overcome the crisis of universities today. Firmly grounded in this vision of the intrinsic interplay of faith, reason and the pursuit of human excellence, every Christian intellectual and all the Churchs educational institutions must be convinced, and desirous of convincing others, that no aspect of reality remains alien to, or untouched by, the mystery of the redemption and the Risen Lords dominion over all creation.

Wild-food foraging: Look for books or websites on wild-food foraging and edible plants. Contact farmers, grocery stores, u-pick farms or your neighbors and ask if you can glean their excess. Fallen fruit and unharvested vegetables rot and can be a chore to clean up, so they might be more than happy to give it away. Offer to volunteer some time if necessary to help them in exchange for food. You can place an ad in your local newspaper or on Craigslist.org or Freecycle.org, too.

Tomorrows Horoscope
SATURDAY, MAY 19, 2012 Although your role in a new endeavor may start out as minor, before the year is out you could be elevated to a more prominent position. Once there, youll do much. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Its your nature to be extremely enterprising and resourceful, especially in situations where you have a chance to advance your interests. Youll see a lot of such chances. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -The only thing that can stop you from achieving an important objective is your own impatience. Slow down and size up situations before making any moves. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -Although purely social arrangements with friends will work out quite well, this might not be true when it comes to commercial activities. Choose your projects wisely. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Its OK to be feisty and more responsive than usual to challenges, as long as youre able to distinguish between competitiveness and sheer combativeness. Hold your own, but without harming anyone in the process. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Youll have the wherewithal to effectively implement certain plans that require bold measures. That courage you have now, however, might not be as strong tomorrow. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -There is a strong likelihood that youll become involved in an endeavor that someone else has masterminded. Even if you have a last-minute contribution to make, itll be meaningful. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Even if you are being put under pressure to do something that has not been well thought out, stand your ground and dont yield until conditions improve. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Unless you keep pace with your responsibilities, your workload tomorrow might be more than you can handle, knocking you totally off track. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You could be harboring some rather extravagant inclinations that would be detrimental to your financial wherewithal. Do your thing as inexpensively as possible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -Its possible for you to be as strong a finisher as you are a starter, provided you schedule your assignments sensibly. Dont attempt to do too much simultaneously. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you have a public speaking engagement, dont structure your remarks too tightly. What you have to say will come off far better if you work from an outline instead of a script. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Your financial conditions are likely to be a bit mixed, hovering between some gains and some losses. However, if you dont go wild, you could still do OK.

retiree health benefits. Already $13 billion in debt, the health payment obligation will force the agency to run up against its $15 billion debt ceiling, causing it to default on the payments. In many sprawling rural areas like Hope, Alaska, residents say they would have to drive nearly 100 miles for mail services in Anchorage if their local post office couldnt stay open long enough. Timely delivery from mail processing centers is also particularly valued in the winter months, when hazardous road conditions can make travel to a store or pharmacy difficult if not impossible. My wifes medical plan is basically that prescription drugs are mailed to her, said Doug Pope, a semi-retired lawyer who lives near Hope, an old gold rush town where the post office faces reduced hours. Theres a lot of people who will be here for months without going to Anchorage. Pope says hes willing to accept moderate postal cuts, explaining that hes not sure what else can be done and whether politicians in Washington will do anything about it. I do think its a sign of a larger, more worrisome trend to me that instead of trying to focus on our larger issues in our society, what were trying to do is nickel and dime people on sort of the downstream end of everything, he said. But thats a political issue.
Young could say anything to help the governments case, dont you think he could have done a better job? Jurors appeared to be nodding frequently in response to Lowell, who stared squarely at the jurors for two hours as he made his case; Lowell appeared choked up at the end of his argument and put his face in his hands. Higdon, in contrast, often read from a binder and delivered his argument in a monotone. Edwards is charged with six criminal counts including conspiracy to violate the Federal Election Campaign Act, accepting contributions that exceeded campaign finance limits, and causing his campaign to file a false financial disclosure report. At the trial, prosecutors have shown two members of Edwards inner circle, Baron and Young, engaged in a yearlong cover-up to hide the married presidential candidates mistress from the media. Prosecutors described how Edwards became increasingly desperate to hide the affair after Hunter was photographed by the National Enquirer in December 2007, saying it was Edwards idea to have Young say he fathered Hunters baby. Baron provided Young and Hunter with more than $400,000 in cash, luxury hotels, private jets and a $20,000-a-month rental mansion in Santa Barbara, Calif.
large offering. Facebook Inc.s valuation is the third-highest in an IPO, according to Dealogic, a provider of financial data. Only two Chinese banks, Agricultural Bank of China in 2010 and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China in 2006, have been worth more. They were worth $133 billion and $132 billion, respectively. By another measure the amount raised Facebook ranks third among U.S. IPOs. The largest was Visa, which raised $17.9 billion in 2008. No. 2 was Enel, a power company, and No. 4 was General Motors, according to Renaissance Capital. The $38 share price is the price at which the investment banks arranging the offering will sell the stock to their clients. In an IPO, the banks buy the stock first from the company and the early investors and then sell to the public. If extra shares reserved to cover additional demand are sold as part of the transaction, Facebook and its early investors stand to reap as much as $18.4 billion.
FLINT, Mich. A man accused of a deadly series of stabbings in Michigan was mentally ill and couldnt resist the spell of evil forces that compelled him to attack people, a psychiatrist testified Thursday as attorneys tried to overcome strong evidence with an insanity defense. Elias Abuelazam is paranoid schizophrenic and was overwhelmed by delusions that led him to attack random victims along dark, Flint-area streets during the summer of 2010, Dr. Norman Miller told the Genesee County jury. Abuelazam, 35, is on trial for the death of Arnold Minor, who was 49 when he was stabbed that August near downtown Flint. Abuezalam is also charged with fatally stabbing two more victims, and he faces attempted murder charges for six other Flint-area
no witnesses after midnight. Isnt it just possible he knew exactly what he was doing? Isnt it possible he derived some pleasure from these acts? Leyton asked. No, Miller replied. The testimony was the defense teams first public explanation for the attacks, which terrified the workingclass city of Flint. Fourteen people were stabbed in the area, and five of them died, including Minor. Survivors said their assailant claimed to have car trouble or asked for directions before attacking. Minors DNA was found in blood stains in Abuelazams Chevy Blazer and on his jeans and shoes, according to testimony by police. Miller said Abuelazam acknowledged stabbing at least eight victims during interviews at the Genesee County jail. He described Abuelazam as a marionette whose strings were pulled by delusions.
WASHINGTON And the heat goes on. Forecasters predict toasty temperatures will stretch through the summer in the U.S. And thats a bad sign for wildfires in the West. The forecast for June through August calls for warmer-than-normal weather for about three-quarters of the nation, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration said Thursday. The warmth is expected south of a line stretching from middle New Jersey to southern Idaho. Only tiny portions of northwestern U.S. and Alaska are predicted to be cooler than average and thats only for June, not the rest of the summer. Last May until April was the hottest 12-month period on record for the nation with records going back to 1895. This year so far has seen the hottest March, the third warmest April and the fourth warmest January and February in U.S. weather history. And it was one of the least snowy years on record in the Lower 48. Some people called it the year without winter. And the outlook for summer is more of the same, said Jon Gottschalck, head of forecast operations at NOAAs Climate Prediction Center in Camp Springs, Md. Theres definitely a tilt toward being above normal through the summer. For some areas of the Southwest that could mean temperatures 1 or even 2 degrees warmer than normal on average, and maybe close to half a degree warmer than normal in the East, he said. One of the reasons is that much of the countrys soil is already unusually dry. So the sun doesnt use as much energy evaporating water in the soil and instead heats up the air near the ground even more, Gottschalck said.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. A condemned killers fight to receive surgery for agonizing hip pain pushed Kentucky officials into an uncomfortable debate over security, politics and even the possibility of inviting scorn from Fox News pundits. Emails and memos obtained by The Associated Press show corrections officials struggling for a year to reconcile their duty to provide medical care with the political ramifications of spending tens of thousands of dollars for surgery on a man they plan to execute. A key problem would turn out to be security issues that led several hospitals to balk at treating inmate Robert Foley, who still hasnt had the surgery. Hip replacement for an inmate who has exhausted all appeals and will soon be executed? Kentucky State Penitentiary warden Phil Parker wrote in an email on Nov. 22, 2010. I can see this making Fox News on a slow news day, maybe even on a busy news day. In fact, I bet Bill OReilly would love to put this in his Pinheads commentary. Just a thought to consider before it goes too much further. Prison officials also made contingency plans to call off the surgery if Gov. Steve Beshear set an execution date, and they considered whether to consult with him about the procedure. I think it is that important and all this may have political consequences, Parker wrote a year before Beshears reelection. Ultimately, Beshears spokeswoman said he wasnt contacted about it. Foley, 55, was convicted of killing six people in eastern Kentucky in 1989 and 1991, making him the most prolific killer on the states death row. His status as an extremely dangerous prisoner was a key factor in the states difficulty finding a surgeon and hospital, according to the documents obtained through a public records request and a lawsuit filed by Foley. Foley still hasnt had the surgery, with Parker lamenting in an email they had no options after an exhaustive search. State officials deny that politics played a role, and theres no evidence in the documents that political considerations prevented the surgery. A spokeswoman for the Kentucky Justice Cabinet which oversees corrections and law enforcement declined to comment because of the pending lawsuit. Foleys attorney, Jamesa Drake, said the state needs a way to care for condemned inmates, even those with complex needs. Foley, who has been on death row since 1993, is unable to get around without help because hes at risk of a dangerous fall, Drake said. If youre on death row, its just like anybody else, Drake said. If you need a new hip, you need a new hip. It hurts. The Department of Corrections acknowledged his degenerative hip in a response to the lawsuit, but also said he has been receiving adequate care. The federal lawsuit filed in March is pending. Corrections Department attorney Brenn Combs wrote to Drake that the Department of Corrections couldnt enter into a legal agreement about the hip surgery because it would impose requirements exceeding our legal duty regarding inmate health care. The Department is not interested in doing that and, like me, nobody else here can see a way that it would help inmate Foley, Combs said in a Nov. 14 email. Its not unusual for inmates to receive treatment outside of prison, and Foley has twice left death row for other surgical procedures. Foley first complained to prison officials about the persistent pain in his right hip in September 2010, saying his leg sometimes gives out on him, according to the lawsuit. Foley initially didnt want the surgery and tried to fashion his own hip brace out of flip flops and other everyday items. Foley said the brace helped with the pain in an affidavit signed in February, but prison officials confiscated it. After Foley agreed to the surgery, officials searched for a doctor to perform the $56,000 operation. At the time, Foley was under a death warrant signed by Beshear.
