Falls police said yesterday the medical examiner
has determined a 25 year old woman who was
found dead in her Pine Avenue apartment Wednesday
was not the victim of foul play. Detective Captain William
Thomson said a combination of energy drinks, diet
pills, and nasal spray may have led to an accidental
death but it's still under investigation. He said the
woman might have been dead for as long as a day.
The cries of her two year old son caused neighbors
to summon police about 2pm Wednesday. They broke
down the door and found her body on the floor. The
toddler was running around the apartment and was in
good condition. He was turned over to a grandmother.
The woman's name has not been released.

SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER
The Barker School District will lose it's school
resource officer if the Governor's proposed
budget for the State Police is approved. Trooper

new recruits to replace the retiring officers. The
State Police started providing Troopers to districts
in 2003. About 90 are currently assigned to districts
around the State, but Barker is the only one using

FOUR POSSIBLE BUDGETS
The Business Administrator of the Falls School
District told the school board last night he's
come up with four possible budgets depending
on how much state aid they receive. Timothy
Hyland said they range from the best case
scenerio where the loss is $3.3-million to the
worst where it's cut by $5.4-million. Eighty-four
employees, including 48 teachers, could be let
go under his worst case budget. It's hoped,
if that's the case, that some of the lay-offs
could be taken care of through retirements.
There are no pay raises in any of the four
spending plans.

IT COULD BE TWO
Officals in Lockport said last night they may have
to close two elementary schools, one more than
they were talking about last week. School Board
President Marietta Schrader said they would
definitely close one this year but they are not
sure which one it will be. She said they're still
looking at all the data and there is a distinct
possibility that, if the nunbers don't look any
better coming from Albany, that they might
be looking at closing a second school, if not
this year, than possibly next year. A standing
room only crowd was at last night's meeting.
They were told the District is expecting to lose
$4-million in State aid and they're also facing a
$4-milliion increase in operational costs. Many of
those at last night's meeting wore DeWitt Clinton
shirts and School Chief Terry Ann Carbone said
it, and John Pound and Washington Hunt are
the oldest, they cost the most to maintain, and
are the obvious candidates for closure.
Schrader says no decision has been made yet.
Between $500,000 and $900,000 could be saved by
closing one school, but there will still have to be
a tax increase. Schrader emphasized they are
not even close to finalizing a budget, she called
it a work in progress.

MONSERRATE BOOTED OUT
The State Senate voted 53-8 last night to oust
Hiram Monserrate. The Queens Democrat was
previously found guilty of a misdemeanor for
dragging his girlfriend through his apartment
lobby. Monserrate said his expulsion will
deprive voters of their right to chose a
representative and he is appealing his conviction.
The decision will throw the Senate into a turmoil.
There are now 31 Democrats and 30 Republicans
and it takes 32 votes to pass anything. Senator
Antoine Thompson was one of the 8 to vote
against removing him. He said he voted no
because Monserrate is still appealing his
conviction. The New York Chapter of the
National Organization of Women hailed the
decision. They say any violence against women is
unacceptable.

CREGO
The Union Sun & Journal is reporting today that
39 year old Christopher Crego wants to be returned
to Lockport to face charges of second and third
degree assault stemming from an incident in November
2008. Crego fled to a small town outside of Terre
Haute Indiana last Fall. D.A. Michael Violante told
the paper Crego is not waiving his extradition rights
and he actually asked them to get a governor's warrant
to bring him back. He could not say when that might
be. Police reports say he was also arrested last August
for DWI and possession of marijuana. Lockport police
say he will also face an additional charge of bail jumping
when he returns. Crego formerly lived at 4617 Sunset
Drive. He was captured by US Marshalls last week at
his workplace in Indiana. He's currently free on
$25,000 bail out of Vigo County but is slated to have
a court appearance there on Monday.

on South Avenue on February 7th of last

never been determined if the shots that
smashed Hamilton's knee came from his
weapon. Hamilton is accused of shooting
his ex-girlfriend, Stephanie Turk, and

the call. The three officers fired 37 rounds
altogether. Hamilton is believed to have

PATERSON STILL ON THE JOB
A rumor that Governor David Paterson would
step down yesterday turned out to be just that,
a rumor. It was fueled by reports the New York
Times is set to publish a "bombshell" story
that'll include accusations of womanizing and
drug use. His office spent a good deal of time
Monday denying he would step down. His
spokesperson, Marissa Shorenstein, said the
rumors were completely false and irresponsible.
She said there are no scandals and everything
was completely fabricated out of thin air. Meantime,
Paterson proposed a new Ethics Bill after he
veotoed one passed last week because he said
it was too weak. His suggestion came after the
Assembly overrode the veto but the Senate was
unable to get enough votes to do the same. Senate
Majority Leader Pedro Espada also proposed
legislation to expel Senators convicted of
misdemeanor assault. It would not affect Senator
Hiram Monserrate who was convicted of dragging
his girlfriend through his apartment building lobby.
The Senate is expected to decide his fate today,
Espada said he would not vote to expel him.

FALLS POLICE RECEIVE AAA AWARD
The Triple A presented the Falls police
department with it's bronze award Monday
for their work done on traffic safety in 2009.
Vice President Wally Smith said the Traffic
Division had done a good job in dealing
with underage drinking and driving, DWI,
agressive driving, seatbelt use, and school
bus safety. The AAA only gives out ten
such awards statewide each year and the
Falls is the only community in Western New
York to earn one this year. Traffic Captain
Salvatore Pino accepted and introduced
the men in the Traffic Division, so he said,
the audience would know their names if
they should pull them over.

FALLS CITY COUNCIL
Lawmakers in the Falls pulled a resolution
Monday to spend $8,640 for a fancy cabinet
to display the city's mementos in the lobby
of City Hall. The action was taken after the
owner of Art's Woodshop on Portage Road
complained he was not given an opportunity
to bid on the job. Mayor Paul Dyster said
the city was not obligated to take bids for
projects under $10,000. The original
resolution called for the job to be done by
Viola's Cabinet Shop on Hyde Park Boulevard
in the Town of Niagara. Art Garabedian said
his business is in the city and pays local
taxes. Councilmember Steve Fournier said he
would prefer it be done by a city business....and
Dyster said they were unaware a local business
could do the job. Garabedian says he plans to
submit a bid after he gets the spec's. The Council
also pulled a resolution to spend about $2,000
to replace 25 year old carpeting in the new
office of the Equal Employment Commission after
Chairman Sam Fruscione questioned whether it
was really necessary. City Controller Maria Brown
warned the city needed to keep a close watch on
spending because there will be less money coming
from Albany in the future.

The Niagara Falls City Council is expected tonight to
vote on whether to spend more than $8,000 for a
cabinet to house mementos given to the City over the
years. City Administrator Donna Owens talked about it
at their meeting two weeks ago. The Administration wants
the job to go to the Viola Cabinet Company on Hyde Park
Boulevard. It would include framed doors with tempered
glass, shelving, lighting, and security locks for all the
doors. Owens said it would be placed in the atrium and match
the historical integrity of the building. Former Council
President Chris Robins suggested it be built late last year.
The money to pay for it would come from a portion of the
interest earned on the city's share of casino revenue.
