Calvert Man Charged In

Overdose Death
Shop local, shop
Leonardtown!
Small Business
Saturday
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
St. Marys County prosecutors have

charged a Prince Frederick man with providing the heroin that they say resulted in a
womans death back in August.
Mark Steven Garner, 27, faces charges
of second-degree murder, depraved heart,
in the death of Barbara Ann Sneden, 31
stemming from the victims overdose at a
California address.
The overdose occurred back in on Aug.
31 with St. Marys sheriffs responding to
the scene, the Chief Medical Examiners
Office ruled that Sneden was killed due to
heroin intoxication.
For a month St. Marys and Calvert detectives developed Garner as a suspect in the
death investigation and executed a search
and seizure warrant in Dowell where they
arrested Garner.
During the arrest police found packaged
heroin that was uniquely linked to Garner who was the dealer, and found that the
heroin seized matched that of Garner, police reports stated.
Police also gathered other evidence to
include witness statements, video surveillance and digital evidence, police said,
which led to murder charges against Garner
as well as a charge of conspiring to distribute heroin.
In Maryland, the depraved heart charge
means the killing of a person while acting
with an extreme disregard for human life.
The depraved heart murder charge carries a sentence of 30 years.
Heroin related deaths continue to plague
both St. Marys and Calvert counties.
In Calvert
there were
15 heroindeaths for
2015. From
2007 to 2015
there have
been a total
of 57 heroi n-related
deaths according to
the states
Department
of
Health
Garner
and Mental Hygiene.
There were six such deaths for all of 2015,
just one more than 2014 but there have already been two such deaths in the first three
months of 2016 alone in St. Marys.
Opioid-related, or synthetic heroin,
deaths also increased in 2015 compared
to 2014 with five deaths and three deaths
respectively.
Overdose deaths linked to fentanyl, a
highly potent pain killer that health officials
and law enforcement officers have warned
is many times more powerful than heroin,
remained steady from 2014 to 2015 with
three fatalities; there has already been one
recorded death from fentanyl in the first
quarter of this year for St. Marys County.

Taxpayers Advised to NotRespond

to Messages
Comptroller Peter Franchot warns taxpayers to stay vigilant and safeguard their
personal information by being alert to a
new phone scamaimed at scaring people
into paying money.
A taxpayer alerted the agencys Compliance Division Friday morning that he had
received two suspicious phone calls supposedly from the Comptrollers Office and
threatening arrest if he didnt pay his tax
bill. Field Enforcement agents are investigating the phone numbers provided by the
taxpayer.
If anyone calls you asking for personal
information or worse yet, threatening you
with arrest, dont respond and hang up
immediately, Comptroller Franchot said.
Thestaff of my agency would never treat
Maryland taxpayers that way.These crooks
are trying to scare you by taking your

money and stealing your identity. They are
shameless, unscrupulous predators trying
to destroy your financial sanctity.
Neither the Comptrollers Office nor the
Internal Revenue Service calls taxpayers
and ask for personal information or Social
Security numbers.
The Comptrollers Office warns taxpayers to also not reply to emails requesting
confidential information, especially your
Social Security number, birth date, salary information or home address. If you
receive an email asking for a copy of
your W-2 form, you should immediately
contact your employer. You also may call
1-800-MD-TAXES or emailmdcomptroller@comp.state.md.us.

Criminal Justice Issues
Miranda McClain
Contributing Writer
On Oct. 6, St. Marys College of Maryland hosted a forum to discuss injustice
within the criminal justice system. The
forum, Issues of Criminal Justice: Raceor Poverty- based?, was led by five distinguished guests, including moderator Judge
James A. Kenney, III, St. Marys Circuit
Court Judge Karen H. Abrams, public
defender Paul B. DeWolfe, attorney Paul
Kiyonaga, and Judge Melanie Shaw Geter.
The Honorable Peter J. Messitte delivered the keynote speech as the forum began. He encouraged attendees to keep in
mind that there is a larger perspective that
everyone needs to consider, and to remember that there will always be considerable
room for improvement within our justice
system. If attendees of the forum were only
able to have one take-away from the event,
he hoped that they would remember to
think seriously about the topics the guests
were to discuss. I hope the situation [is
more] textured than what was previously
assumed, he said.
As the round table discussion began,
the Honorable Melanie Shaw Geter said
that she thinks justice has become entertainment. However, a judges job is to
be respectful of everyone who enters the
courtroom. [] The job is to be fair. What
people see on television is not reality. It
causes us to have a distorted view of what
is going on.
She also discussed how implicit bias
is born out of previous experiences, and
hopes attendees will try to think about how
childhood experiences have affected their
decisions.
Public Defender Paul B. DeWolfe gave
statistics to support his claims of injustice
within the system. One of his claims was
that black children are twice as likely to
be arrested than white children in school.
Following Geter, he also encouraged everyone to consider that there is bias in the
justice system and encouraged all to think
about how this can affect decisions today.
Paul Kiyonaga, who handles criminal
defense and employment discrimination
and civil rights matters in the District,
shared a story of when he was on the case
of an 18-year-old from El Salvador.
It began as an armed robbery case but
then turned into a potential gang-related
case because of the mans heritage and appearance. He claimed that people from El
Salvador do not typically understand the
American judicial system, which made it
difficult for him to work with the accused.
However, throughout the case, the man
was faced with many racially-based assumptions, Kiyonga claimed. Despite the
various challenges he faced throughout the
case, Kiyonaga said that the man was acquitted through evidence.
Kiyonaga said this case proves that there
needs to be a dialogue [and] and open discussion so that hopefully, racial biases are
no longer present within the judicial system
and that cases such as the one he presented
become less frequent.
The event came to a close with questions
from the programs student ambassadors
and from audience members. Each guest
offered advice and suggestions, including
DeWolfe, who claimed: America has a
problem with bias [] and we need to face
it.
Despite all of the claims of injustice, the
Honorable Karen H. Abrams believes that
we can make a difference. [] It wont be
easy or quick, but we can do it.
The event was sponsored by the colleges
The Center for the Study of Democracy
(CSD). This year, the centers theme has
been economic inequality.
The Tackle Box Fishing Report

By Ken and Linda Lamb
Special To The County Times
We were looking for good weather last
week based on forecasts showing Matthew,
the hurricane, looping back into the Atlantic and leaving us alone. So much for faith
in weathermen as the storm crashed on up
the coast and gave us all a good thrash from
Norfolk to Long Island with us right in the
middle of it all. Forty mile an hour winds
and heavy rain Saturday and into Sunday
morning dashed our hopes of fishing, but it
is all over now and the sun is out.
The fish will react to the cooler temperatures this week. Rockfish love cool and
will continue to school up and feed. before
the storm closed us outthere were plenty
of undersized rockfish in both the Patuxent
and Potomac last week, with skilled fishermen finding 20 inch fish and bigger up to
30 inches on the edges of the small breakers. Trollers using umbrella rigs with small
bucktails as the target baits did well. Shallow water lure casters are finding good
sized fish at dusk and dawn.
We will find breaking rockfish in the bay
most everywhere this week. There may be
some fall migrants showing up as the over-

night temperatures in the 40s may start the

action early this year. The past few seasons
found sunny days and 80 degree temperatures well into November. The fall migration was limited to post Thanksgiving and
into December. Water temperatures have
been falling steadily since Labor Day this
year and the Atlantic is much cooler in New
England where our migrants (40 to 50 inch
fish) spend the summer.
The perch in the creeks were very active eager to hit Beetle Spins and other
tiny lures in just about every hole and
submerged structure. The trick is to find
bigger perch when the five and six inchers
are jumping on all all lures offered. There
were still spot in the creeks eating bits of
bloodworm , and hefty puppy drum up to
16 inches (18 inches is legal minimum)
were taking perch lures.
Bluefish, spot and croaker may start
leaving us soon for the ocean and southern
waters, but we still may have enough to get
another mess for dinner.

PATUXENT RIVER APPRECIATION DAYS 2016
39TH ANNUAL CELEBRATION OF ONE OF SOUTHERN MARYLANDS OLDEST FESTIVALS

By David Spigler
Contributing Writer
On October 8th and 9th, the Calvert Marine Museum sponsored the 39th annual
edition of the Patuxent River Appreciation
Days, better known as PRAD. This weekend of fun filled activities began in 1978
on Columbus Day weekend as a means of
bringing recognition and awareness for the
importance this second longest river and
its tributaries in the state has on our lives
here in Southern Maryland. This festival
is held each year to highlight economic,
social, recreational, and cultural impacts
this river has on the basin through which it
flows. Additionally, it provides a reminder
of the rivers historical significance. Beginning with the Native Americans who originally inhabited its riverbanks and coastal
areas prior to the colonists arrival in 1634
and continuing through today, it provides
a means for many a watermens livelihood
and an exceptional recreational asset for
our citizens and visitors.
This celebration is also made possible by
the support of the Calvert County Board of
County Commissioners along with many
non profit organizations who actively participate in the planning, staffing, advertising, and hosting for these busy two days.

Among the groups that come together each

year include the Shriners of the Boumi
Temple in Baltimore who often bring 300
or more members to help, the local Volunteer Fire Departments, high school
NJROTC Marching units, local Cub, Boys,
and Girls Scout Troops, the Knights of Columbus members from throughout the Tri
County area, the Elks, the Masons, Calvert
County Watermans Association, and many
dignitaries and government representatives
of the County and the State. All of these
groups share an interest in the preservation
of our Patuxent River and the importance
it has on our continuing our great quality
of life.
This years event opening, just as last
weeks Calvert County Fair, was dealt a serious blow by Mother Nature with a cold,
rainy start that held back the number of attendees and participants. The weather had
a real negative impact on the many vendors who look forward to displaying and
selling their artistic wares. More than 30
tents were set up to showcase their amazing handiwork that reflects the wonderful scenery and the life style we routinely
enjoy here in the land of pleasant living.
This collection of talent is far and away one
of the best in all of Maryland.
Additionally, many local non profit organizations planned to set up their food trucks
and dining tents to provide a delicious array of tasty meals from cheese steaks, BBQ
chicken and pork, hoagies, burgers, fries,
fritters, funnel cakes, cotton candy, ice
cream and more. The aroma generated by
these various goodies being prepared,
combine to give PRAD a carnival like
atmosphere and always make for difficulty
in deciding what to eat! These volunteer
groups generate a good portion of their
annual income from this two day event.
Unfortunately, most decided not to open
on Saturday given the harsh weather and
the small number of hardy visitors willing
to brave the elements. Even the mainstay
Knights of Columbus with their bright red
and yellow aprons full of Tootsie Rolls who
routinely greet the crowds upon entering
the grounds of the Calvert Marine Museum
and helping the police as crossing guards
were disappointedly absent this year! In
a word, the most often heard comment by
those who were present was Bummer!
Kathy Weakley, one of the workers, stated
We should call this Patuxent Rainy Appreciation Days!!!
Happily, the rains ended by Sunday

morning and the sun returned before noon
giving a promise of better things to come!
Slowly the grounds of the museum became
a hub bub of activity. Folks with big smiles
could be seen scurrying about with a new
sense of purpose in hopes the day would
bring out a crowd of visitors. Strains of
Patsy Cliness Sweet Dreams drifted over
the area from one of the scheduled musical groups rehearsing on the large outdoor
stage at the Museum. The sounds of rat a
tat rat a tat rat a tat were being produced
by many children at the Museums Ship
Building site where, for a $2 donation,
they were given the material to fashion neat
small toy wooden ships replete with sails!
Under the direction of George Surgent,
the Museums Boatwright and volunteers
Ray Brule and Butch Garren, the kids are
given instructions and help in preparing
their seagoing craft. Probably, if not the
most popular activity, it definitely was the
noisiest of the afternoon! Upwards of 200+
children are attracted to this fun filled activity each year. Many of the old timer
volunteers state many of these youngsters
parents actually built their boats at these
same tables when they were kids!
Looking about, lines were beginning to
form to see the historic Drum Point Lighthouse or take a ride on the museums iconic
skipjack the Wm. B. Tennison. The Museum itself became crowded with visitors
old and young. The normal admission
charges were waived for the weekend and
it was obvious many took advantage of seeing the wonderful displays and artifacts in
this extraordinary place. Calvert Marine
Museum has been called the jewel of
the Chesapeake Bay and is known as one
of the finest in Delaware, Maryland and
Virginia. One of the more interesting displays showed the importance of the oyster
in filtering the waters of the Bay and its
tributaries. Two aquarium tanks were set
up side by side early in the morning. Each
tank is filled with cloudy water direct from
the nearby river. In one, several oysters are
placed to demonstrate their incredible ability to filter the water. Within hours as if by
magic, the water in the oyster tank is dramatically clearer than the tank next to it!
There are other great exhibits that are just
as astonishing! If you have not visited this
trove of Southern Maryland history, plan
on bringing the entire family for a day outing to see and learn of the awesome great
treasures that make our region beautiful!
Finally, the blustery winds died down

and the sky turned blue and crowds began to make their way to Solomons Island
Road in anticipation of the annual PRAD
Parade that was to get underway at 2:00.
The number of onlookers was down this
year as compared to previous years when
it was standing room only. Its too bad as
the Parade itself was as great as ever! It
truly was small town America at its best,
featuring the Shriners Boumi Temple
Color Guard leading the Calvert County
Sheriffs Office Command Vehicle, and
the Parades Grand Marshal, King Oyster. They were followed by Cub Pack 427
riding in an large Army deuce truck,
more Cub Scouts from Pack 451, and Girl
Scouts from Troop 5147. Next came two
units from the Calvert County Bookmobile
Program. Stepping out smartly were our
own Patuxent High School Marching Band
followed by the Patuxent High Cheerleaders in their splendid Panther Green and
Black uniforms followed by a group from
Baby Wearing International of Southern
Maryland. Following them were individual Grand Poohbahs from the Shriners
wearing their distinctive burgundy Fezzes.
One of these gents, Ron Carlson, a retired
Navy pilot from Lexington Park, expertly
negotiated the entire parade route using a
two wheeled Segway despite having just
one leg!
The nosiest group came next; known as
the Blue Knights of Southern Maryland,
they were impressive on their Harley Davidsons. A group pulling their racing boats
followed. Next a sharp and shiny 1958
Corvette passed by to some oose and
ahhhs followed by a huge army truck.
Then came the impressive Celtic Society

of Calvert and a marching group from the
Masons of Southern Maryland. The Solomons Yacht Club always makes an appearance! They were followed by the sharp
marching unit from the Huntingtown High
School NJROTC Program. More Shriners
appeared operating go carts disguised as
magic carpets accompanied by good
clowns, not the freaky kind! And even
more Shriners followed on motorcycles.
Next, a group of Shriners arrived on Tri
wheel vehicles called Camel Wheels
and demonstrated how NOT to drive
an ATV as they nearly rolled one doing
their two wheel act as well as one specially
equipped for doing wheelies that was a
little frightening.
The crowd favorites, the Solomons Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad
appeared near the end of the parade with
eight bright, gleaming red and chrome apparatus and Calvert Commissioner Mike
Hart along with Sparky the Fire Dog. Towards the finish, they sounded their sirens
and flashed their lights to the glee of all
the youngsters in attendance! An independently owned antique fire truck named
Big Mack came next! And taking up the
end of the parade was the comical, if not
outright funny Republican old Checker
limousine owned and operated by Calverts
own Cal Steuart! Adorned with many political cartoons and phrases, this long vehicle featured a dozen masked riders that
vaguely looked like folks you might recognize in the news of today!!!
This large two day event was months
in the planning and required hundreds of
man hours by many groups and workers
who labors and energies were put to the
test. Museum Director Sherrod Sturrock
and her staff of employees and volunteers
put on a good show despite the challenge
Mother Nature created with the less than
optimum weather conditions. Those folks
Feature Story

who were in attendance appeared to have

a great time. And while the actual money
raised this weekend for all the good causes
being promoted may not reach the levels of
past PRAD celebrations, we are all fortunate that we did not suffer the anxiety and
the anguish brought on by Hurricane Matthew that was inflicted upon our friends
and neighbors in the southeastern portion
of the Country. We are so lucky to live in a
wonderful region that is made all the more
beautiful by our Patuxent River. As Southern Marylanders, we are fortunate to have
many reasons to celebrate and so much
more to be thankful for.

The American Red Cross urges eligible

donors to give blood to support cancer patients and other patients during Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October.
More than 1.6 million new cases of cancer are expected to be diagnosed in the U.S.
this year and 246,600 of them will be invasive breast cancer, according to the American Cancer Society. Cancer patients may
need blood products during chemotherapy,
surgery or treatment for complications.
Mary Kay Huppert was diagnosed with
breast cancer last year. I was a nurse for
40 years. I saw blood transfusions save a
lot of lives.
She received two transfusions herself
while being treated for breast cancer.
The Red Cross must collect about 14,000
blood donations every day to help patients,
and volunteer donors are the only source of
blood products for those needing transfusions. Donors of all blood types are needed.
To make an appointment to give blood,
download theRed Cross Blood Donor

Pet of the Week
Meet Gracie and Destiny

They were both born in May of
2016. They were rescued by Feral Cat
Rescue. Destiny is incredibly friendly. She is her foster moms favorite
foster in fact. She just wants love, love
and more love. Gracie enjoys being
petted when you walk over to see her.
She is a bit more shy than Destiny. If
you have food, they both want to be
right there. They are both fully vetted
and cost $125 each. They have been
spayed, combo tested for aids and fe-
line leukemia, 3 distemper vaccines,

rabies vaccine, dewormed and the
girls even have a microchip. You can
meet them at the Petco in California,
Maryland on Saturdays and Sundays
between 11 to 3. We hope they will
find their own home very soon. If
you are feeding a cat outside that is
not spayed or neutered, please email
us at info@feralcatrescuemd.org so
you can borrow a trap and possibly
get a free spay/neuter grant.

Educate Yourself Before Voting!
In the upcoming 2016 general election,
it is perhaps more important than ever that
citizens educate themselves before placing
their votes. Watch the debates, do some research, learn each candidates position on
the important issues. Do not vote for a candidate only because they are aligned with
your respective political party. Perhaps
even more importantly, do not vote for a
candidate simply because you dislike their
opponent. An uneducated vote is dangerous and disrespectful to this county. Know

the facts, learn as much as possible and
then place your vote for the candidate who
is most qualified at the extremely difficult
job of running a nation. Please do yourself
and your county a favor and educate yourself before voting!
SAVE THE REPUBLIC

Americas many troubles must be turned
around. Over $19 trillion debt. Bad trade
deals. Loss of jobs. Stagnant economy. Median incomes down. High taxes. Complicated
tax code. Failed foreign policies. Radical Islamic Terrorism. Thousands of Muslim Immigrants not adequately screened. Bad deals
with Iran and nuclear weapons. Cash ransom
for hostages. A shrinking Military. Lack
of support for Veterans. Insecure Southern
Border. Illegal Immigration. Bloated welfare
roles. More people on food stamps. Obamacare. Rising healthcare premiums. Spiral
toward Socialism. Lack of respect for Police. Deterioration of race relations. Attack
on the Second Amendment. Lack of respect
for human life. Attack on Judeo- Christan
values. Extreme Political Correctness! Lies,
corruption, and cover-ups ; Benghazi and 4
dead Americans blamed on a video,reckless
handling of classified information, Email
deletions, and the Clinton Foundation Pay
for Play Schemes. Obama, Hilliary Clinton,
and Liberal Democrats get the most credit
for Americas troubles, but Republicans now
hold both Houses of Congress and do noth-
ing but talk. Donald Trump is a smart, very

successful Businessman who will be beholding to no one but the American people. He
is certainly not Politically Correct. Trump
may be the last hope to save the Republic put
in place by our Founding Fathers. The Capitalistic Free Enterprise System built this Nation. Socialism does not work. Hilliary would
complete the Transformation of America
that Obama promised. She will appoint Liberal Supreme Court Justices.
We need bold new Leadership. Donald
Trump will put America first, bring back jobs
for all skin colors,secure the border, control
immigration,lower taxes, rebuild our Military, support Veterans and Police, defeat ISIS,
and keep us safe.However, with the biased
liberal media in the tank for Hilliary, will
Trump be given the opportunity to Make
America Great Again ? Trump has certainly
said inappropriate things, but Hilliary Clinton
has said and actually done things more serious for our Country with lies and cover-ups;
which is worse? SAVE THE REPUBLIC,
Vote for Trump!
