The FBI and Department of Justice announced on April 17, criminal charges against 60 defendants—in-cluding 53 doctors, phar-macists, nurse practitioners, and other medical profes-sionals who allegedly gave

thousands of opioid pre-scriptions to addicted pa-tients, essentially acting as their patients’ drug dealers. The effort is the largest law enforcement action to date against illegal opioid prescribers, officials said.

The arrests and charges are among the first cas-

es brought against medi-cal providers as part of the Appalachian Regional Pre-scription Opioid (ARPO) Strike Force, a team of federal investigators and prosecutors who are work-ing to investigate illegal opioid prescription distribu-tion in the areas of the country hardest hit by opi-oid addiction.

A Jury Trial Date has been set following the arrest of three men, including one Tombstone man, for assault-ing a woman in her Palomi-nas home in January.

According to court re-cords, a pre-trial hearing will be held on May 13 and the Jury Trial is set to start on Tuesday, June 25, 2019 at the Cochise County Superior Court.

On January 28, 2019 at approximately 11:49 pm, an 81-year-old female called 911 to report three subjects broke into her home and robbed her. Deputies and Border Patrol responded and discovered her back patio glass slider door had been shattered.

The victim advised that three subjects took jewelry

from her body, contents from her purse, and other items from the home, one of the suspects repeatedly struck the woman with a length of pipe to get her to comply while taking her jewelry.

The victim also advised that the three suspects had latex gloves on, were using flashlights, and were wearing

dark hooded jackets and ban-dannas covering their faces. They all spoke English but tried to cover their voices in a fake accent.

Detectives conducted fol-low up at the victims’ resi-dence where additional items of evidence were located. The victim was also able to pro-vide additional significant

details regarding the suspects and their actions on the night of the incident, to include that the suspects turned off the power to her home before entering and may have at-tempted to cut her telephone line as well.

According to the Sheriffs Office, on Thursday January 31, 2019, after following leads

from the scene and informa-tion from the victim, persons of interest were identified and seven search warrants were served in locations in the Hereford/Sierra Vista area. The search warrants resulted in items identified in connec-tion with the home inva-sion, weapons and drugs were also seized.

As a result of the in-vestigation, Daniel E. Ramirez, 33, of Tomb-stone, and Ryan C. Melton, 24, of Huachuca City were booked into the Cochise County Jail on charges of Aggravated Assault, Kidnapping, Bur-glary, Theft, and Robbery. Both subjects remain in the jail with a $100,000 bond. A third subject, Ian J. MacPhail, 29, of Hereford was also arrested and charged with being a Prohibited Pos-

sessor and was released on his own recognizance, however, MacPhail was later arrested in February for selling meth and heroin in Sierra Vista, his girlfriend Rebekah Henry was also arrested for assisting with the drug sales.

According to the Tomb-stone Marshals Office, Ramirez has been arrested for criminal trespassing and burglary in the past by the Tombstone Marshals Of-fice and the Cochise County Sheriffs Office.

The investigation is being continued by the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office and anyone with additional in-formation is asked to call 520-432-9500. Information received may remain confi-dential.

The Tombstone News will update you when more infor-mation becomes available.

been recognized for its ef-forts to not only become a healthier workplace, but for expanding that philosophy into the community.

Healthy Arizona Work-sites awarded its top honor to the County – Platinum status – for the impact it has made both within and beyond its walls and for addressing a local health challenge.

Health Day in November 2018 by Cochise County Health & Social Services with the goal of encour-aging both employees and residents to give back to their communities.

“The impact of Volun-teer Cochise translates in the number of participants and the influence they are creating in their communi-ties,” said Health Policy Manager Daniella Reid-miller.

In a letter from Tombstone Unified School District Su-perintendent Robert Devere to Mayor Escapule, Devere gave notice that the Inter-governmental Agreement be-tween the City of Tombstone and the School will be termi-nated on July 21, 2019.

The City of Tombstone en-tered into the agreement on June 14, 2016 for the use of the parking lot by the ten-

nis courts on 6th and Allen Streets.

According to the letter, the Tombstone Unified School District has entered into a sales contract for the old high school with 2A Land LLC. The anticipated date for close of escrow is July 31, 2019.

Over the years that the old high school building and field has been for sale, sev-eral offers have been put into escrow and unfortu-nately, prior to closing, they would fall through.

The old Tombstone High School building, built in 1922 has been on and off the real estate market since 2007. The school became vacant in 2006 when students and faculty moved to the newly built school on Yellowjacket Way.

At this time, it is unclear as to what the buyers will be doing with the property. The Tombstone News will update our readers when more information becomes available.

Attorney General Mark Brnovich announced a State Grand Jury indicted Wil-liam Grewell with fraudulent schemes and artifi ces, failure to pay taxes, and fi ve counts of fi ling a false tax return for allegedly failing to pay transaction privilege tax, also known as sales tax, on his dealership’s used car sales be-tween 2014 and 2018.

Th is investigation was performed by the Arizona Curbstoning Enforcement Task Force (ACE-TF) made

up of Arizona Department of Transportation Offi ce of In-spector General, and the Arizona Department of Revenue’s Criminal In-vestigations Unit in co-operation with the Ari-zona Attorney General’s Offi ce. Following a tip, ACE-TF Detectives dis-covered multiple used cars for sale which appeared to be private sales. Each car displayed a for sale sign with a phone num-ber. Through a Craigslist

database search, detectives discovered the phone number was associated with approxi-mately 432 other used car ads within the past year. Dur-ing an undercover operation, detectives discovered the cars were not individual sales but marketing by a used car deal-er, Desert Palms Wholesale.

Grewell, the owner-opera-tor of Desert Palms Whole-sale, is accused of selling the used cars to customers with-out remitting the tax due on those transactions. For tax

years 2014 through 2018, Grewell allegedly fi led false tax returns understating his gross receipts and claim-ing he had no taxable sales. According to investigators, between 2014 and 2018, Grewell had approximately $4,500,000 in gross sales and would have owed approxi-mately $282,000 in taxes to the State of Arizona and Maricopa County. Grewell was arrested at his home on March 27th.

Assistant Attorney Gener-al Mary Harriss is prosecut-ing the case.

All defendants are pre-sumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Sun City Auto Dealer Indicted for Fraudulent Schemes and Tax Evasion

Federal tax reform to deliver more than $100 a year

in total savings for average electricity user

APS is seeking Arizona Corporation Commission approval to once again lower customer rates as a result of federal tax reform. Th is re-quest will be the fi nal of three adjustments related to federal corporate tax cuts. Once ap-proved, this latest reduction will bring the overall savings from the tax expense adjus-tor to nearly $9 per month, or $108 a year, for a customer using the average amount of electricity.

Customers started receiv-ing these tax savings in March 2018, and a second wave took eff ect beginning with their bills in April 2019. Th e sav-

ings will vary based on actual usage and appear on monthly bills as a line item called “Tax Expense Adjustor.” Ad-ditional savings from lower APS operating costs and an innovative energy trading program, combined with the tax reform reductions, are lowering bills $14 per month, or $168 a year, for the average electricity user compared to one year ago.

“APS was one of the fi rst companies to act on federal tax reform last year by passing the resulting tax savings back to customers, and it’s great to see those savings grow,” said Stacy Derstine, APS Vice President of Customer Service. “With triple-digit temperatures right around the corner, we encourage our customers to explore all the

APS resources available to help them manage their bills. During our special 100 Days of Helping outreach eff ort we are striving to connect more customers to everything from ongoing bill discounts to bal-anced billing and energy sav-ings tips before summer.”

For APS customers who qualify financially, resourc-es include the APS Energy Support Program, which provides a 25 percent dis-count on monthly energy bills, and Crisis Bill As-sistance during a financial hardship like losing a job or facing an unexpected medi-cal expense. All customers, however, can benefi t from being on the best service plan for how they use en-ergy, and most are eligible for Budget Billing, a con-

sistent monthly charge that evens out the highs and lows of monthly bills for easier budgeting. More information about these programs and other helpful tips to manage monthly electricity bills can be found at aps.com/helping.

APS serves about 2.7 mil-lion people in 11 of Arizo-na’s 15 counties, and is the Southwest’s foremost pro-ducer of clean, safe and reli-able electricity. Using a bal-anced energy mix that is 50 percent carbon-free, APS has one of the country’s cleanest energy portfolios, including both Palo Verde Generating Station and renewable en-ergy. Th e company is also a proven leader in introducing technology and services that off er customers choice and control over their energy con-sumption. With headquarters in Phoenix, APS is the prin-cipal subsidiary of Pinnacle West Capital Corp. (NYSE: PNW).

APS Asking Corporation Commission to Approve More Savings for Customers

Offi ce of Field Operations offi cers at the Raul Hec-tor Castro Port of Entry in Douglas prevented a Doug-las woman from smug-gling nearly 110 pounds of marijuana into the United States Friday.

CBP offi cers referred a 34-year-old local wom-an for further inspection of her Chevy sedan after she attempted to enter the U.S. through the Port of Douglas. When offi cers searched the vehicle, they found nearly 100 packages of marijuana throughout the vehicle. The drugs, weigh-ing nearly 110 pounds, are estimated to be worth nearly $55,000.

Offi cers seized the drugs and vehicle. The subject was arrested for narcotics smug-gling and turned over to U.S. Immigration and Cus-toms Enforcement’s Home-land Security Investigations.

Federal law allows offi cers to charge individuals by com-plaint, a method that allows for the fi ling of charges for

criminal activity without in-ferring guilt. An individual is presumed innocent unless and until competent evidence is presented to a jury that establishes guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

CBP’s offi cers at ports of entry screen all people, ve-hicles and goods entering the U.S. while facilitating the f low of legitimate trade and travel. Their mission involves narcotics interdic-tion, enforcing immigration and trade laws, and protect-ing the nation’s food sup-ply and agriculture industry from pests and diseases.

U.S. Customs and Bor-der Protection is the unifi ed border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation’s borders at and between of-fi cial ports of entry. CBP is charged with securing the borders of the United States while enforcing hundreds of laws and facilitating lawful trade and travel.

“Since the fall of 2018, Volunteer Cochise partici-pants have collaborated with more than 20 organizations and given approximately 910 hours of their time to good causes.”

Th ose organizations include VFW Post 836 in Bisbee, Boy Scouts of America, Doug-las Youth Football, Willcox Against Substance Abuse, Sierra Vista Football League, and Northern Cochise Com-munity Hospital.

Th e program has a dedi-cated webpage on the County website (https://www.cochise.az.gov/health-and-social-services/volunteer-cochise-helping-community-health), which provides resources and helps people fi nd volunteer opportunities.

Th e County chose to pur-sue a volunteer program be-cause it believes volunteering has multiple benefi ts.

“It can help you connect to others, it improves your mind and body, it can help you gain

new skills, and it can be a lot of fun,” said County Health Director Carrie Langley.

Th e County was previously recognized as a healthy work-site when it was given the Healthy Arizona Worksite Gold Award in 2018.

Th e 2019 awardees will be honored at a ceremony on May 1 at Phoenix College.

“Th is is an exciting time that demonstrates the hard work of our County team but also engages the community around wonderful service,” Langley added. “Th e com-mitment to achieve the Plati-num award and the work that continues to sustain it, will improve the well-being of all involved.”

Sherry Haskins, Worksite Initiatives Manager, Mari-copa County Department of Health, said, “Cochise County has demonstrated data driven programming and is leveraging cross-sector collaborations or partnerships improving the health, well-being, and equity of their community.”

Continued from last week

At last the saloon-keep-er gave up and returned to Nogales alone. Th e old pros-pector had refused to aban-don his quest.

As time passed, the old man was believed to have per-ished in the desert, but such was not the case for one day, months later, he appeared in Nogales, leading four burros, heavily loaded with ore that was almost pure silver. After his partner left him he had continued prospecting along the banks of Carrizo Creek south of the Tascosa Moun-tains. Down near the border he had found an eroded out-cropping of kaolin liberally embedded with the silver nuggets.

Assays proved the silver ore to be as rich as it looked. Dividing the four burro loads equally between them, the

prospector and his elated partner made preparations to return to the silver lode. However, the old prospec-tor asked for a few days to wash the dust from his throat and spend a part of the money from his silver.

True to the manner of his kind, he spent freely at the bar and gaming tables and lavished gifts upon the saloon girls.

His bearded, weather-beaten face was a joy to behold as he included one and all in his generosity.

One morning he did not appear in his usual haunts. By noon, all his new-found friends were quite concerned and formed a search party.

Th ey found the old man’s body in an old barn at the edge of town. Th ere were no indications of violence so it was assumed that the old fel-low’s heart had just stopped as he lay asleep.

Th e saloon-keeper, confi -dent that he could fi nd the

lode of silver, went into the desert and up Carrizo Creek. Try as he might he was never able to locate the kaolin out-crop. After several attempts he gave up in disgust.

Long, long ago, the Span-ish mined silver across the border in Sonora. This mine is just a short distance from where the old prospector and the ancient Opata found the silver nuggets. History has recorded that those early Spanish miners found many large silver nuggets in their mines.

Many of these weighed twenty to two hundred pounds and one was record-ed as weighing more than two thousand five hundred pounds, (Planchas de Pla-ta).

Still, the mystery remains: Where did the old prospec-tor gather his four burro loads of silver? No one has ever found the location.

Perhaps one of the numer-ous present-day prospectors, who are answering the mag-netic call to the Tombstone silver strike, will stumble across the huge nuggets of silver. Who knows?...

Th e Oklahoma City bomb-ing was a domestic terrorist truck bombing on the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Build-ing in downtown Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on April 19, 1995. Perpetrated by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols, the bombing hap-pened at 9:02am and killed at least 168 people, injured more than 680 others, and destroyed one-third of the building. Th e blast destroyed or damaged 324 other build-ings within a 16-block radius, shattered glass in 258 nearby buildings, and destroyed or burned 86 cars, causing an estimated $652 million worth of damage. Extensive rescue eff orts were undertaken by lo-cal, state, federal, and world-wide agencies in the wake of the bombing, and substantial donations were received from across the country. Until the September 11, 2001 attacks, the Oklahoma City bomb-ing was the deadliest terror-ist attack in the history of the United States, and remains the deadliest incident of do-mestic terrorism in the coun-try’s history.

Within 90 minutes of the explosion, McVeigh was stopped by Oklahoma Highway Patrolman Charlie Hanger for driving without a license plate and arrested for illegal weapons possession. Forensic evidence quickly linked McVeigh and Nichols to the attack; Nichols was ar-rested, and within days, both were charged. Michael and Lori Fortier were later identi-

fi ed as accomplices. McVeigh, a veteran of the Gulf War and a U.S. militia movement sympathizer, had detonated a Ryder rental truck full of ex-plosives parked in front of the building. His co-conspirator, Nichols, had assisted with the bomb’s preparation. Mo-tivated by his dislike for the U.S. federal government and unhappy about its handling of the Ruby Ridge incident in 1992 and the Waco siege in 1993, McVeigh timed his attack to coincide with the second anniversary of the deadly fire that ended the siege at the Branch David-ian compound in Waco, Texas.

Th e offi cial investigation, known as “OKBOMB”, saw FBI agents conduct 28,000 interviews, amass 3.5 short tons of evidence, and collect-ed nearly one billion pieces of information. The bombers were tried and convicted in 1997. McVeigh was executed by lethal injection on June 11, 2001, and Nichols was sentenced to life in prison in 2004. Michael and Lori For-tier testifi ed against McVeigh and Nichols; Michael was sentenced to 12 years in prison for failing to warn the United States government, and Lori received immunity from prosecution in exchange for her testimony.

As a result of the bombing, the U.S. Congress passed the Antiterrorism and Eff ective Death Penalty Act of 1996, which tightened the stan-dards for habeas corpus in the

United States, as well as leg-islation designed to increase the protection around federal buildings to deter future ter-rorist attacks. On April 19, 2000, the Oklahoma City National Memorial was dedi-cated on the site of the Mur-rah Federal Building, com-memorating the victims of the bombing. Remembrance services are held every year on April 19, at the time of the explosion.

April morning, 2042. Mary and I shopping for a new air-car in Tucson, with my Link® streaming how great I’d look in the new six-rotor Dodge Coronado™. She’ll love it too, says Link®, and Mary’s Link® also streaming how great it would be to buy that emerald-green one, goes with her eyes, take it down to Tombstone for the day, mega fun. So off we go through the Kolb port in the Bubble™, past the cracks in the aging sky-blue plastic, jetting up and over and out to the east along Sky 10. All the food factories just outside the city belching brown and black smoke into the tangerine sky, and then mile after mile of yellow-green farms growing soy for our favorite Bigger Burgers™, and Link® say-ing “Whoa, Two! Take a dip down to Pilot® and try the new Cosmo Bigger Burger™ with extra Synth-Bacon.” Pass on that one, with Benson coming up at 200 mph.

Benson. Only 138,000 people, and a small Bubble™. Link®: “Th e Amaretto! Way great starter home, you and Mary looking so good, fi t in so good, in the exciting Vil-lages At Vignetto™, now from the low $5 millions!” Banking hard right over that old development on the air-path north to Tombstone, at 500 feet over the classic Nil-son Amtrak Station, unused now cuz the trains all left when the maglevs came. Air outside clearer as we rocket up over the hills, away from the cities. Tombstone as al-ways too small and poor to have any electrostructure at all, save one old Link® tower. “Jon! Mary would look so cute in that new RoadWrangler™ outfi t from Boss Spur®, and

Jon you’ll be so proud walking next to her down the Board-walk® with your new Stetson LinkPort 5X Hat™, both of you so cool, like, so Western, true that!”

Love Link®. Can’t imagine how people used to live with those clunky computers that were outside their bodies. Yo implant. Anything you want to know – anything at all – zap. And InterChat™ for personal conversations, with the Companies® monitor-ing and passing along timely helpful hints about things to buy and do that make your life so much richer and more fulfi lling. Link® way best bro, ultra rad, as the Coro-nado™ executes a perfect three-point landing atop the old town high school, which is what they did back before MySchool®, back when kids actually had to learn things themselves. Beyond old, bad boring.

Walking through town. Link®: “Delicious Street Ta-cos at Tina’s SuperStore™ across from the Bird Cage™,” got that, ate four, way raving good, only $147 new dol-lars. And then two glasses of Maison Escapule Cabernet Franc™, Tombstone AVA label rated 94 by WineLink Advocate®. But outside Doc Hollidays, the achingly deep blue sky suddenly turned jet black as an 80 mph microburst roared in. “I’ve lost my Link!” cried Mary, as thick clouds of red dust swirled all around us. “Call the Coronado™ to pick us up, Jon!” But my Link® was dead too: “Error 404! System malfunction.” Mega scary, no Links®, cut off from everything, stranded out in the middle of nowhere. Fade to black.

Owned and Operated by a fourth generation Tombstone

Native Family. Their Great Grandfather arrived in the

Tombstone area in 1877, before the town was founded in 1879!

OPIOID from Pg. 1

“Using the strike force model, we have now focused our resources on a region of the country which arguably has suff ered the most from egregious prescription opi-oid diversion schemes,” FBI Executive Assistant Direc-tor Amy Hess said at news conference in Cincinnati, where the charges were an-nounced.

Formed last October, the ARPO Strike Force oper-ates in Cincinnati, Louis-ville, Pittsburgh, Knoxville, Memphis, and Birmingham to investigate illegal opioid prescriptions in the sur-rounding areas. ARPO is an extension of the Depart-ment of Justice’s Health Care Fraud Strike Force, which investigates and prosecutes Medicare fraud nationwide in partnership with the FBI, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and the Drug Enforcement Administration.

“Th e ARPO strike force is going after doctors who act like drug dealers,” said FBI Criminal Investigative Divi-sion Health Care Fraud Unit Chief Steven Blaum. “Our fo-cus is on the doctors because the sheer volume of pills they can prescribe can have a sig-nifi cant impact on their com-munities in terms of access to illicit opioids. By removing just one bad doctor, we can stop the addiction cycle be-fore it starts.”

Among the defendants charged are two Kentucky doctors—one who is accused of giving his staff blank pre-signed prescriptions to pro-vide to patients, and another whose friends paid for opioid prescriptions. A Tennessee doctor is accused of prescrib-ing opioids in exchange for sex. And a group of Ohio pharmacists are charged with operating a “pill mill” that dispensed 1.75 million opioid pills in two years.

According to drugabuse.gov, In the late 1990s, phar-maceutical companies reas-sured the medical commu-nity that patients would not become addicted to prescrip-tion opioid pain relievers, and healthcare providers began to prescribe them at greater rates. Th is subsequently led to widespread diversion and misuse of these medications before it became clear that these medications could indeed be highly addic-tive. Every day, more than 130 people in the United States die after overdos-ing on opioids. The mis-use of opioids—including pain relievers, heroin, and synthetic opioids such as fentanyl—is a serious na-tional crisis that aff ects public health as well as social and economic welfare. Th e Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that the total “economic burden” of prescription opioid misuse alone in the United States is $78.5 billion a year.

Attorney General Mark Brnovich announced Wednes-day that the Arizona Attorney General’s Office Civil Rights Division (“Civil Rights Divi-sion”) has settled a case against TBM Equities, LLC d/b/a Sahara Apartments (“Sahara Apartments”). Sahara Apart-ments operates an apartment complex exclusively for stu-dents near the University of Arizona in Tucson.

The Tucson Civil Rights Division brought a charge of housing discrimination againstSahara Apartments after viewing an example lease agreement on the apartment complex’s web-site. A portion of the lease agreement read:

“If you are female and become pregnant while you are a resident of Sahara Apartments, you must va-cate the apartment upon or prior to the birth of your child and pay any unpaid balance of your Contract Price.”

The Civil Rights Division alleged that Sahara Apart-ments discriminated based on familial status and sex in violation of the Arizona Fair Housing Act.

“The conduct in the case was unacceptable and quite frankly outrageous,” said At-torney General Mark Brnov-ich. “Our Civil Rights Di-vision works tirelessly to enforce the law and fight for individuals who have been discriminated against. If you have been discriminated against, or know someone who has been discriminated against, my office is dedicated to investigating, exposing, and remedying unlawful acts of discrimination.”

As a result of the Con-

ciliation Agreement, Sahara Apartments:

-was assessed a $2,000 civil penalty,

-agreed to create a policy that prohibits discrimination and retaliation per the Ari-zona Fair Housing Act,

-shall provide written no-tice to all current tenants that the offending paragraph is void and no longer in effect,

-shall ensure that the of-fending language will not be included in new leases, and

-is required to have all managers attend fair housing discrimination training.

The Attorney General can make public the Conciliation Agreement if he determines disclosure would further the purposes of the Arizona Fair Housing Act.

Arizona law protects your right to have a place to live and makes it unlawful for any person to discriminate in con-nection with housing because of an individual’s race, color, religion, sex, national origin, familial status or physical or mental disability. Addition-ally, Arizona’s Fair Hous-ing statutes make it illegal to discriminate against someone because they are pregnant.

The mission of the Ari-zona Attorney General’s Of-fice Civil Rights Division is to enforce civil rights laws, increase public awareness of civil rights, provide dispute resolution services, and offer community services through-out the State. If you feel you’ve been discriminated against in housing, employment, pub-lic accommodations, or vot-ing, please contact our office at (602) 542-5263 or submit an intake questionnaire ath-ttps://www.azag.gov/com-plaints/civil-rights.

HISTORIC TOURS & MUSEUMS

Birdcage Theatre: In 1881 the Bird Cage was the most famous honky-tonk in America. The New York Times referred to it as the wildest, wickedest night spot between Basin Street and the Barbary Coast operating 24 hours a day through the 1880’s offering gambling, drinking, ris-qué entertainment and the best well known ladies of the night. This created an unspeakable reputation for this opera house saloon. 140 bullet holes from 16 shoot-ings adorn its walls, ceilings and floors, giving mute evi-dence that represents much of Tombstone’s notorious past. Preserved today in its original state, this unique site remains a time tunnel of a bygone era. Be prepared to step back into time. An unforgettable memory of the Old Wild West.
