toms and Border Protec-tion and State departments of agriculture including the Arizona Department of Agriculture to prevent the unlawful entry of prohib-ited seeds and protect U.S. agriculture from invasive

pests and noxious weeds.Please do not discard the

unsolicited package of seeds received in the mail. Any-one in Arizona who re-ceives an unsolicited pack-age of seeds from China should immediately send the package to: Arizona Department of Agriculture ATTN: PLANT SERVIC-

On Wednesday, August 12, the Tombstone School Board approved on site learning for Tombstone Schools starting Monday, August 17.

Students still have the op-tion for remote learning from home or a combination of both. Each student will be accountable and required to attend classes on the sched-

uled dates/times and to par-ticipate for the remote learn-ing. Grades will be based on established district policy. Students who attend class re-motely will be watching a live stream of their teacher at the same times as the students who are attending in person.

If you are attending re-motely, lunch for students can be picked up from campus.

“We are working with the Cochise County Health De-partment and have arrange-ments with them. If someone from our campus comes up

positive for COVID-19, we will most likely learn that through the Cochise County Health Department,” said TUSD Superintendent Rob-ert Devere. “The County Health Department has con-tact tracing teams set up and we have set up 24/7 commu-nication with them through our cell phones. We are not health professionals, if we have a COVID-19 situation we turn it over to the health professional and rely on them for their help.”

Devere also stated that as

of right now, the Arizona In-terscholastic Association has a staggered schedule for the sports season. Football prac-tice will start on Septem-ber 8th, Volleyball practice on August 31st and Cross Country on August 24th. These dates are still subject to change.

Superintendent Devere also said that masks will be required on all campuses at all times. Each student will need to have their own masks; the school will not be providing them. “We will

also be taking temperatures of each student and staff member daily as they come on campus. 100.4 is the threshold, if they have any-thing higher they will be put into a cool down room and have their temperature re-taken within 15 minutes, if it is still up they will be sent home with no exceptions.”

Devere continued, “We are setting up sanitizing sta-tions at each campus and have several hundred bottles of hand sanitizer available throughout each school.

Sanitizing wipes will be used daily to clean the classrooms in combination with a spray disinfectant.”

If you have additional questions, please call Tomb-stone High School at (520) 457-2215, Walter J Mey-er at (520) 457-3371 and Huachuca City School at (520) 456-9842.

Plan Includes Data-Driven Benchmarks, Phased Reopen-ing, And Requirements To Mitigate The Spread Of CO-VID-19

Office of Gov. Ducey

The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) announced Monday public health recommendations for the eventual safe reopening of paused businesses in the

state of Arizona. On June 27, Governor Ducey issued Executive Order 2020-43 “Pausing of Arizona’s Re-opening.” This paused the reopening of several specific industries with operations that are considered by public health to have a high-risk of spreading COVID-19, spe-cifically gyms and fitness centers, bars and nightclubs, waterparks and tubing, and movie theaters. It also lim-

ited indoor and outdoor gatherings to no more than 50 people. Since this pause, Arizona has seen a decline in its percent positivity, an increase in hospital capacity, and an improvement in other indicators. On July 23, that order was extended, with a review every two weeks.

ADHS has been work-ing with several of these industries on guidelines for an eventual reopening and

is recommending the fol-lowing plan based on the Centers for Disease Con-trol and Prevention (CDC) guidance, the White House Coronavirus Task Force metrics, and expert advice from the medical and pub-lic health community. The benchmarks are classified into minimal, moderate, and substantial transmission categories as defined by the CDC. Using public health data to inform these bench-marks, Arizona is currently in the substantial transmis-sion phase.

Upon this initial two-week

review, ADHS advises keep-ing these restrictions in place for the time being, but is providing metrics for industry leaders and businesses to understand when a general reopening could be considered. Busi-nesses have the opportu-nity through the attestation process for review of indi-vidual circumstances in the event that they are denied the ability to reopen for public health reasons.

To view the benchmarks, visit the Arizona Depart-ment of Health Services website at www.azdhs.gov.

Arizona Department Of Health Services Phased Reopening Plan For Paused Industries

Drug Enforcement Administration

The Drug Enforcement Administration urges its DEA-registered practitioners and members of the public to be cautious of telephone calls by scammers posing as DEA employees attempt-ing to defraud and extort victims. The schemers call the victims, spoofing DEA phone numbers in order to appear legitimate, and threaten arrest, prosecution, and imprisonment for sup-posed violations of federal drug laws or involvement in drug-trafficking activities unless victims pay a “fine” over the phone, via wire transfer, or through a gift card.

The reported scam tac-tics continually change but often share many of the same characteristics. Callers use fake names and badge numbers or names of well-known DEA officials and may:

•use an urgent and ag-gressive tone, refusing to speak to or leave a mes-

sage with anyone other than their targeted victim;

•threaten arrest, prosecu-tion, imprisonment, and, in the case of medical practi-tioners, revocation of their DEA numbers;

•demand thousands of dollars via wire transfer or, in some instances, in the form of untraceable gift cards taken over the phone;

•falsify the number on caller ID to appear as a le-gitimate DEA phone num-ber;

•will often ask for per-sonal information, such as social security number or date of birth;

•reference National Pro-vider Identifier numbers and/or state license num-bers when calling a medical practitioner. They also might claim that patients are mak-ing accusations against that practitioner.

It is critical to note that DEA personnel do not con-tact practitioners or mem-bers of the public by tele-phone to demand money or any other form of payment; will not request any per-

sonal or sensitive informa-tion over the phone; and will only notify people of a legitimate investigation or legal action via official letter or in-person.

Impersonating a federal agent is a violation of fed-eral law. The best deter-rence against these bad actors is awareness and cau-tion. Anyone receiving this type of call from a person purporting to be with DEA should report that contact using our online form or by calling 877-792-2873. DEA registrants can submit the information through “Ex-tortion Scam Online Re-porting” posted on the DEA Diversion Control Division’s website, www.DEADiversion.usdoj.gov.

Reporting these scam calls will help DEA stop, find, and arrest the crimi-nals engaged in this fraud. Anyone with urgent con-cerns can call their local DEA field division. For contact information for DEA field divisions, visit https://www.dea.gov/domestic-divi-sions.

DEA Warns of Scammers Impersonating DEA EmployeesBy Samantha NicholasThe Tombstone News

No citizens chose to speak at Call to the Public so the meeting moved on to VI. NEW BUSINESS.

Item A. DISCUSSION AND/OR ACTION: Ap-proval of Accounts Payable in the amount of $145,181.86 (July 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020). Item passed unan-imously.

Item B. was a DISCUS-SION AND/OR ACTION: Approval of request from Helldorado Incorporated for a special use permit for the use of City Park, City Park-ing lot behind Chamber of Commerce for food court and Allen Street, between 3rd Street and 6th Street, for street activities and 2nd Street to 12th Street for the annual parade on Friday, October 16, Saturday, Octo-ber 17, and Sunday, October 18, 2020. Item passed unan-imously contingent upon or-ders from the Governor.

Item C. was a DISCUS-SION AND/OR ACTION: Approval of request from

Robin Chelmis, for the re-newal of the special use per-mit for the Farmers Market located in the City Park, starting Saturday, August 1, 2020 through July, 2021. A second request for a spe-cial use permit for the use of the parking lot across from the City Park for the Farmers Market when the renovation of the City Park begins. According to Mayor Escapule, effec-tive immediately, there will be no vehicles allowed in the City Park because Pub-lic Works is starting work on the sprinkler system. “The Farmers Market may have to move sooner than we thought in the case we have to do any excavating in the park to expose water lines. The park has been neglected for to many years and I feel it’s a priority to make another one of our treasures of Tomb-stone as nice as it should be.” Item passed unanimously.

Attorney General Mark Brnovich announced that Sharon Ashcroft, of Mesa, was sentenced to six years in prison for stealing over a thousand insurance company checks issued to doctors she worked for in Tempe between 2011 and 2017.

Beginning in August of 2011, Ashcroft worked as a part-time medical biller for two ophthalmologists.

Ashcroft would deposit in-surance checks issued to the doctors for patient care into bank accounts she controlled. She then fraudulently wrote off the balances associated with those patients in the software system as “uncol-lectable bad debt from insur-ance companies,” “uncollect-able bad debt from patients,” or “insurance payment re-ductions/adjustments due to

contracted rate of reimburse-ment being lower than what the doctors charge.”

A new offi ce manager discovered the fraud in February of 2017 when she contacted an insurance company and learned that the bills were paid. A re-view of Ashcroft’s financial records showed she spent the stolen money on elabo-rate vacations for her and her family to locations such as New York, Ireland, Mexico, Las Vegas, and Washington D.C. She also spent tens of

thousands of dollars on spa treatments, furniture, cars, and her daughter’s wedding.

In October 2019, Ashcroft pleaded guilty to attempted Fraudulent Schemes, a class 3 felony, and Th eft, a class 2 felony.

She was remanded into custody after her sentence was imposed on August 5, 2020. Following her release from prison, Ashcroft will be placed on four years of super-vised probation and will pay $651,330.65 in restitution to the doctors.

East Valley Woman Sentenced to 6 Years in Prison for Stealing Insurance Checks

U.S. Senator Martha Mc-Sally (R-AZ) on Monday celebrated the announce-ment by the Department of Veterans Aff airs (VA) to award more than $400 million in grants under the Supportive Services for Veteran Families Program (SSVF) to end veteran homelessness, including over $11 million to Arizo-

na-based groups. Th e VA will begin disbursing the funding on October 1.

SSVF funding provides thousands of low-income Veteran families around the nation with access to case management and other as-sistance to rapidly re-house Veterans who become home-less or prevent Veterans from becoming homeless.

“Far too many of our vet-erans lack adequate housing,” McSally said. “We owe it to these heroes to ensure they have a roof over their heads. As a fellow veteran, I am grateful to see these much-needed grants go to Arizona’s community partners who are committed to ending veter-ans’ homelessness.”

Arizona Recipients: Na-tional Community Health Partners: Pinal, La Paz, and Yuma Counties - $1,218,339.00. Catholic

Charities Community Ser-vices, Inc.: Coconino, Yavapai and Mohave Counties - $1,062,000. Primavera Foun-dation: Pima, Cochise, Santa Cruz, Graham and Greenlee Counties - $1,568,910.

Attorney General Mark Brnovich today announced that the Arizona Attorney General’s Offi ce (AGO) obtained a $22.5 million judgment and a permanent injunction against vaping peddler Eonsmoke, LLC.

“Eonsmoke is being held accountable for its unlaw-ful conduct in Arizona, in-cluding marketing fl avored vaping pods to children,” said Attorney General Mark Brnovich. “If you are an Arizona retailer and have Eonsmoke products on your shelves, they are illegal. Th is fi nal judgment includes com-prehensive injunctive relief, and our offi ce will continue to monitor Eonsmoke’s pres-ence in Arizona and ensure its compliance with all state and federal laws.”

Th e Consumer Protec-tion Section of the AGO fi led a consumer fraud law-suit in January 2020 to stop Eonsmoke from selling il-legal vaping products and targeting youth in Arizona. In October 2019, the FDA informed Eonsmoke that it was manufacturing and sell-ing 96 illegal products that did not receive proper FDA approval. Illegal Eonsmoke products, however, contin-ued to be available for sale in retail locations and online to Arizona consumers (includ-ing when the AGO fi led its lawsuit against the company in January 2020). Even more egregious, Eonsmoke en-gaged in marketing tactics that targeted underage con-sumers in Arizona.

In February 2020, the

Superior Court granted the State’s preliminary injunction request, ordering Eonsmoke to immediately cease the sales of illegal vaping products. In the wake of this ruling, the AGO’s Tobacco Enforcement Unit sent over 4,880 letters to retailers informing them that they were facilitating the sale of illegal vaping products.

On July 27, 2020, the Court issued a fi nal judgment against Eonsmoke. Th e judg-ment:

Permanently enjoins Eon-smoke from: (i) advertising, marketing, or selling any il-legal products in Arizona; (ii) marketing, appealing to, or targeting underage consum-ers in Arizona; and (iii) pro-viding any products to un-derage consumers in Arizona or distributing products to

retailers with three or more violations of the underage sales statutes.

Awards the State a total judgment of $22,535,136: $21,974,000 in civil penalties, $511,136 in disgorgement of revenues, and $50,000 in at-torneys’ fees. Also in January of 2020, the AGO filed a similar consumer fraud law-suit against JUUL Labs.

If you believe you have been the victim of consumer fraud, you can file a con-sumer complaint by visiting the Attorney General’s web-site. If you need a com-plaint form sent to you, you can contact the Attorney General’s Offi ce in Phoe-nix at (602) 542-5763, in Tucson at (520) 628-6648, or outside the Phoenix and Tucson metro areas at (800) 352-8431.

Attorney General Brnovich Obtains $22.5 Million Judgment and Injunction Against Eonsmoke

Attorney General Mark Brnovich announced 65-year-old Michael Th omas DeAr-mond, a former caretaker who worked in the Kingman area, was sentenced to fi ve years in prison for Escape and Th eft.

In 2018, DeArmond was originally arrested for violat-ing the terms of his proba-tion stemming from a 2015 case (CR-2015-00159). DeArmond was released

from custody in May 2018, but ordered to return to the Mohave County Jail by a spe-cifi c date. When DeArmond failed to return, the charge of Escape in the Second Degree was fi led in August 2018.

In July 2016, DeArmond was convicted of Th eft, as a class 3 felony, in Mohave County Superior Court. DeArmond was placed on a term of supervised probation

for a period of four years. DeArmond had been em-ployed as a caretaker and provided respite and habili-tation services to qualifying patients in the Kingman area. The costs of these ser-vices were ultimately billed to the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS). Investigators determined that between October 2011 and August 2014 DeArmond had sub-mitted false time sheets and was overpaid approximately $22,000.

On July 13, 2020, DeAr-mond was sentenced to 1.5 years in the Arizona De-partment of Corrections Re-habilitation and Reentry in connection with his charge of Escape in the Second De-gree.

On July 13, 2020, DeAr-mond was also sentenced to a term of 3.5 years in prison after the Court found DeAr-mond violated the terms of his probation in connection with his conviction for Th eft.

Th e sentences will be served consecutively.

Former Caretaker in Mohave County Sentenced to 5 years for Escape and Theft

Victory over Japan Day is the day on which Imperial Japan surrendered in World War II, in effect bringing the war to an end. The term has been applied to both of the days on which the initial announcement of Japan’s sur-render was made – August 15, 1945, in Japan, and because of time zone differences, August 14, 1945 (when it was an-nounced in the United States and the rest of the Americas and Eastern Pacific Islands) – as well as to September 2, 1945, when the surrender document was signed, offi-cially ending World War II.

August 15 is the official V-J Day for the United Kingdom, while the official US com-memoration is September 2. The name, V-J Day, had been selected by the Allies after they named V-E Day for the victory in Europe.

On September 2, 1945, a formal surrender ceremony was performed in Tokyo Bay, Japan, aboard the battleship USS Missouri. In Japan, Au-gust 15 usually is known as the “memorial day for the end of the war”; the official name for the day, however, is “the day for mourning of war dead and praying for peace”. This official name was adopted in 1982 by an ordinance issued by the Japanese government.

By Ben T. TraywickWorld Renowned Author

Continued from last weekThe festivities were held

about two miles above Hot Springs, and lasted for four days. There were about four hundred Indians at this cel-ebration. I do not think we ever spent a more pleasant time than upon this occa-sion. No one ever treated our tribe more kindly than Victo-rio and his band. We are still proud to say that he and his people were our friends.

When I went to Apache Pass (Fort Bowie) I found General Howard in Com-mand, and made a treaty with him. This treaty lasted until long after General Howard had left our country. He al-ways kept his word with us and treated us as brothers. We never had so good a friend among the United States of-ficers as General Howard. We could have lived forever at peace with him. If there is any pure, honest white man in the United States army, that man is General How-ard. All the Indians respect-ed him, and even to this day frequently talk of the happy times when General Howard was in command of our Post. After he went away he placed an agent at Apache Pass who issued to us from the Gov-ernment clothing, rations, and supplies, as General Howard directed. When beef was issued to the Indians I got twelve steers for my tribe, and Cochise got twelve steers for his tribe. Rations were is-sued about once a month, but if we ran out we only had to ask and we were supplied. Now, as prisoners of war in this Reservation, we do not get such good rations.

Out on the prairie away from Apache Pass a man kept a store and saloon. Sometime after General Howard went away a band of outlawed Indi-ans killed this man, and took away many of the supplies from his store. On the very next day after this some In-dians at the Post were drunk on “tiswin,” which they had made from corn. They fought among themselves and four of them were killed. There had been quarrels and feuds among them for some time, and after this trouble we deemed it impossible to keep the different bands together in peace. Therefore we sepa-rated, each leader taking his own band. Some of them went to San Carlos and some to Old Mexico, but I took my tribe back to Hot Springs and rejoined Victorio’s band.

Soon after we arrived in New Mexico two companies of scouts were sent from San Carlos. When they came to Hot Springs they sent word

for me and Victorio to come to town. The messenger did not say what they wanted with us, but as they seemed friendly we thought they wanted a council, and rode in to meet the officers. As soon as we arrived in town soldiers met us, disarmed us, and took us both to headquarters where we were tried by court-martial. They asked us only a few questions and then Vic-torio was released and I was sentenced to the guardhouse and put me in chains. When I asked then why they did this they said it was because I had left Apache Pass.

I do not think I ever be-longed to those soldiers at Apache Pass, or that I should have asked them where I might go. Our bands could no longer live in peace to-gether, (Author’s Note: The chief of Hot Springs Apach-es, Victorio, felt it impossible for separate Apache bands to live together in peace with one another on an alien res-ervation, having tried it and failed. He met his death in opposing the forcible removal of his band to a reservation.) And so we had quietly with-drawn, expecting to live with Victorio’s band, where we thought we would not be mo-lested. They also sentenced seven other Apaches to chains in the guardhouse.

I do not know why this was done, for these Indians has simply followed me from Apache Pass to Hot Springs. If it was wrong (and I do not think it was wrong) for us to go to Hot Springs, I alone was to blame. They asked the sol-diers in charge why they were imprisoned and chained, but received no answer.

I was kept a prisoner for four months, during which time I was transferred to San Carlos. Then I think I had another trial, although I was not present. In fact I do not know that I had another trial, but I was told that I had, and at any rate I was released.

After this we had no more trouble with the soldiers, but I never felt at ease any longer at the Post We were allowed to live above San Carlos at a place now called Geronimo. A man whom the Indians called “Nick Golee” was agent at this place. All went well here for a period of two years, but we were not satis-fied.

In the summer of 1883 a rumor was current that the officers were again plan-ning to imprison our lead-ers. This rumor served to revive the memory of all our past wrongs, the massacre in the tent at Apache Pass, the fate of Mangus-Colorado, and my own unjust impris-onment, which might easily have been death to me. Just

at this time we were told that the officers wanted us to come up the river above Geronimo to a fort (Fort Thomas) to hold a council with them. We did not believe that any good would come of this confer-ence, or that there was any need of it; so we held a council ourselves, and fearing treach-ery, decided to leave the res-ervation. We thought it more manly to die on the warpath than to killed in prison.

There were in all about 250 Indians, chiefly Bedonkohe and Nedni Apaches, led by myself and Whoa. We went through Apache Pass and just west of there had a fight with the United States troops. In the battle we killed three sol-diers and lost none.

We went on toward Old Mexico, but on the second day after this United States soldiers overtook us about three o’clock in the afternoon and we fought until dark. The ground where we were at-tacked was very rough, which was to our advantage, for the troops were compelled to dis-mount in order to fight us. I do not know how many sol-diers we killed, but we lost only one warrior and three children. We had plenty of guns and ammunition at this time. Many of the guns and much ammunition we had ac-cumulated while living in the reservation, and the remain-der we had obtained from the White Mountain Apaches when we left the reservation.

Troops did not follow us any longer, so we went south almost to Casa Grande and camped in the Sierra de Sa-huaripa Mountains. We ranged in the mountains of Old Mexico for about a year, then returned to San Carlos, taking with us a herd of cattle and horses.

Soon after we arrived at San Carlos the officer in charge, General Crook, took the horses and cattle away from us. I took him that these were not white men’s cattle, but belonged to us, for we had taken them from the Mexicans during our war. I also told him that we did not intend to kill these animals but that we wished to keep them and raise stock on our range. He would not listen to me, but took the stock, I went up near Fort Apache and General Crook ordered officers, soldiers, and scouts to see that I was arrested; if I offered resistance they were instructed to kill me.

This information was brought to me by the Indi-ans. When I learned of this proposed action I left for Old Mexico, and about four hundred Indians went with me. They were the Bedonko-he, Chokonen, and Nedni Apaches. At this time Whoa was dead, and Naiche was the only chief with me. We went south into Sonora and camped in the mountains. Troops followed us, but did

not attack us until we were camped in the mountains west of Casa Grande. Here we were attacked by Govern-ment Indian scouts. One boy was killed and nearly all of our women and children were captured.

After this battle we went south of Casa Grande and made a camp, but within a few days this camp was at-tacked by Mexican soldiers. We skirmished with them all day, killing a few Mexicans, but sustaining no loss our-selves.

That night we went east into the foothills of the Si-erra Madre Mountains and made another camp. Mexican troops trailed us, and after a few days attacked our camp again. This time the Mexi-cans had a very large army, and we avoided a general en-gagement. It is senseless to fight when you cannot hope to win.

That night we held a coun-cil of war; our scouts had re-ported bands of United States and Mexican troops at many points in the mountains. We estimated that about two thousand soldiers were rang-ing these mountains seeking to capture us.

General Crook had come down into Mexico with the United States troops. They were camped in the Sierra de Antunez Mountains. Scouts told me that General Crook wished to see me and I went to his camp. When I arrived General Crook said to me. “Why did you leave the reservation?” I said: “You told me that I might live in the reservation the same as white people lived, One year I raised a crop of corn, and gathered and stored it, and the next year I put in a crop of oats, and when the crop was almost ready to harvest, you told your soldiers to put me in prison, and if I resisted to kill me. If I had been left alone I would now have been in good circumstances, but instead of that you and the Mexicans are hunting me with sol-diers.” He said: “I never gave any such order; the troops at Fort Apache, who spread this report, knew that it was untrue.” Then I agreed to go back with him to San Carlos.

It was hard for me to be-lieve him at that time. Now I know that what he said was untrue, and I firmly believe that he issued the order for me to be put in prison, or to be killed in case I offered re-sistance.

We started with all our tribe to go with General Crook back to the United States, but I feared treach-ery and decided to remain in Mexico. We were not under any guard at this time. The United States troops marched in front and the Indians fol-lowed, and when we became suspicious, we turned back.

To The Editor,Th e Green New Deal, cli-

mate and economic justice legislation popularized by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, should include funding for cultured-meat research. Th is new form of protein is grown from cells, without slaughter-ing animals. It has the poten-tial to end our reliance on one of the most signifi cant con-tributors to global warming. I’m talking about traditional animal agriculture.

Cultured meat isn’t science

fi ction. Many companies are developing such products for market. For instance, Mis-sion Barns will hold a public taste-testing for its cultivated bacon this month. However cost is still an issue. Further development is needed to make this technology eco-nomically competitive with slaughtered meat. Progres-sives should include funding for this purpose in the Green New Deal.

“Red sky in the morning, sailor take warning.” Th e dawn sky was a bright scarlet red on Wednesday, but we are 500 miles from the vast Pa-cifi c, there are no sailors here, and so far very little rain. Which might be a good thing, because of all the mysterious seeds from China that are showing up in our our post of-fi ce boxes. Folks around here are probably planting them, but without heavy monsoon rains who knows what will blossom soon?

Well, the Internet knows. You can fi nd answers to any-thing on the Internet. Which is a truly new thing, since your counterpart in Zimba-bwe has absolutely the same access to knowledge as you do, which may be an issue for the next generation coming up. Problem -- it is very hard to tell whether information is accurate and truthful. Th e internet lets them all bounce off each other and ampli-fi es their shared insanities. Same with the hundreds of thousands of diff erent expla-nations about the mysterious Chinese seeds. Which turns out to be an online e-com-merce practice called ‘brush-ing’, using fake transactions to enhance the reputations of online merchants. Send-ing out thousands of orders of low-value merchandise to random recipients apparently increases the sender’s reputa-tion as an online fulfi llment company, allowing it to at-tract more customers. If this is confusing, don’t worry. Th e Wall Street Journal thinks it is ridiculous, and so do I. But reality is not half as much

fun as imagining those seeds growing into huge two-sto-ry-high tumbleweeds, alien Chinese spores from space choking the streets of The Town Too Tough To Die.

Over the last 200 years, it may be that disruptive new communication tech-nologies lead to widespread misinformation, chaos, and war. Steam-engine print-ing, before the Napoleonic Wars. The telegraph, before the Civil War. Newspapers that could print photo-graphs, before the Spanish-American War and World War I. Film and radio, be-fore World War II. Tele-vision, before the Korean and Vietnam Wars. And now the Internet, before the Gulf and Afghan Wars and before what may be yet to come. Which luckily is an-other day’s story, and not one you’ll read about here.

Because I looked at my cal-endar the other day, and real-ized I’ve written this column for two years now. Time to move on, to get back to my artwork. With this, sincere thanks to all of you for read-ing it and for the advice and comments you’ve made. And also thanks to Dusty and Cheri, the owner/editor, and Samantha the reporter/desk-top publisher, for their sup-port and encouragement. Th e Tombstone News is one of the few independent small-town papers left. Subscribe to it. Support it. Or all you’ll have left is the internet and those Chinese seed stories. Am signing off now, with a col-umn archive at http://jon404.com. Enjoy!

By Bob Garver

“Th e Rental” is a thriller set at, what else, a rental house. Rental houses like the one in this movie are essen-tially hotels, and horror has a long proud history with ho-tels. Th ere was “Psycho” back in 1960, “Th e Shining” in 1980, and a season of “Amer-ican Horror Story” that won Lady Gaga a Golden Globe in 2015. Th en again, a rental house was also the setting for “You Should Have Left,” which as of this writing is unlikely to be unseated as the Worst Movie of 2020, so the setup isn’t infallible. Th e point is that these movies love to exploit the creepiness that comes with sleeping, shower-ing, and living in places that are not yours.

Th e group of renters in-cludes Charlie (Dan Ste-vens), a hotshot profession-al; Michelle (Alison Brie), Charlie’s somewhat-margin-alized wife; Josh (Jeremy Al-

len White), Charlie’s screw-up brother; and Mina (Sheila Vand), Charlie’s business partner and Josh’s girlfriend. Nobody is willing to say it, but both romantic relation-ships are on shaky ground because Charlie clearly has feelings for Mina. The characters’ relationships go through some twists and turns throughout the movie, and we wonder if any of it will matter once the “be afraid of unknown domi-ciles” element kicks in.

Th e quartet rent the ex-travagant house, which sits on the edge of a cliff over-looking an ocean that is prac-tically begging to swallow victims, from a creep named Taylor (Toby Huss). Taylor doesn’t like dogs (Josh se-cretly has one in tow), barely conceals his racism, and per-haps worst of all, has a key to the house. Th e characters are varied in how threatened they feel by Taylor, but they are unanimous in disliking him. Th ere is a sixth player in the game known only as Th e Man, which is fi tting because the character has no person-ality, so he deserves nothing more than a vague descriptor for a name.

Drama between the four main characters takes up a lot of screen time, but it’s compelling drama. If other elements didn’t have to come into play eventually, this could have been a movie or stage drama unto itself. But there is a scene coming where a camera is discovered in a shower head, fatal de-cisions are made, and we’re forced to consider the bigger picture.

At first, this isn’t a bad thing. Even as tension es-calates and emotions f lare, there is still a tautness and understandability that I ap-preciated. Then the film switches subgenres and be-comes a mess. A villain emerges and this person’s motives and goals are non-sensical. Director Dave Fran-co would have you believe they are “ambiguous,” as if the true terror comes from the holes you fill in with your imagination, but I say it’s just sloppy writing. This point is tough to articulate without getting into spoilers, but I highly doubt that any villain that cares about Is-sue A is going to care much about Issue B and vice versa. Yet this villain cares about

both issues and there’s a re-dundancy to the final act that I can’t overlook.

“Th e Rental” comes frus-tratingly close to getting a recommendation from me. It’s defi nitely in the upper echelon of films I’ve seen this year, considering I’ve been on a steady diet of On Demand for the past four months. But this cast, these characters, and defi nitely the audience deserve a better ending than what the movie gives them. Supposedly it all plays into a moral about how travelers are too trusting of unfamiliar living spaces, but that point has been made before in better movies. Let’s say you have the choice be-tween watching this movie in theaters or watching it at home for half the cost. I’d say it’s not quite worthy of fi rst-run prices, but it might be worth a “Rental.”

“Th e Rental” is available through online streaming services and likely through your local cable provider. Th e fi lm is rated R for vio-lence, language throughout, drug use and some sexuality. Its running time is 88 min-utes. Contact Bob Garver at [email protected].

Weekly Movie Review:

“The Rental” GRADE: C

Tombstone Marshals Offi ce Report 08/05/20-08/12/20

U.S. Border Patrol agents responded to dozens of 911 calls, rescuing nearly 30 mi-grants throughout southern Arizona this weekend.

Beginning Friday after-noon, Tucson Sector agents were routed or received numerous telephone calls from illegal border crossers claiming to be lost or in

need of help in the des-ert. Many calls were from rugged, desolate mountain areas devoid of paved roads within the Tohono O’odham Indian Reservation. Five of the rescue calls were from groups presumably aban-doned by a human smug-gler.

One Guatemalan wom-

an also called 911 after she was abandoned by her smuggler without food or water in Cochise County. Agents, along with Cochise County Sheriff ’s deputies, searched for the lost woman after she provided her loca-tion via telephone. Deputies ultimately located the un-injured woman along a re-mote train track and trans-ferred her to Border Patrol for processing.

All persons rescued will be processed and expelled

or removed once they are found fit for travel. U.S. Customs and Border Pro-tection is the unifi ed border agency within the Depart-ment of Homeland Security charged with the manage-ment, control and protec-tion of our nation’s borders at and between offi 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.

Arizonans for Health and Public Safety (AZHPS) an-nounced Tuesday that they are appealing their legal challenge to the “Smart & Safe Arizona” initiative’s 100-word statement to the Arizona Supreme Court.

“We are appealing this de-cision because we continue to believe that the 100-word

statement fails to accomplish its purpose as required by Arizona law,” said AZHPS Chairwoman Lisa James. “Th e summary fails to dis-close key provisions, includ-ing that it would redefi ne marijuana in Arizona law, cap the excise tax at 16%, and alter the burden of proof for marijuana DUI.

Further, it misleads vot-ers on limits to marijuana cultivation and incorrectly states that it “protects” em-ployer rights when it in fact decreases them.”

“Th e decision by the court provides ample basis for our appeal,” John Shadegg, lead counsel for the plaintiff s stated Tuesday. “Arizona law makes it clear that if the summary is ambigu-ous and susceptible to more than one interpretation, it is invalid, and the measure may

not appear on the ballot. For that reason, we are appeal-ing the decision to the Ari-zona Supreme Court.”

“Th is isn’t just a straight-forward legalization of marijuana for recreational use. This initiative is 17-pages of sweeping new laws,” says James. “Voters have a right to know.”

Th e deadline for Arizona general election ballots to be printed is August 21. A decision is expected before then.

Articles of IncorporationOf

HEALTHY HUACHUCA CITY

KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS:

That the undersigned incorpo-rators, whose mailing addresses appear beneath their respective names, have this day associated themselves for the purpose of form-ing a non profit corporation under the laws of the State of Arizona and do hereby adopt the following Ar-ticles of Incorporation.

ARTICLE IThe name of this corpora-

tion is and shall be: HEALTHY HUACHUCA CITY.

ARTICLE IIThe known place of business of

this corporation shall initially be 500 N. Gonzales Blvd., Huachuca City, Arizona, 85616, Cochise County, Arizona; but, it may estab-lish other principal places of busi-ness establishing offices/meeting places at such other places, within Cochise County in the State of Arizona, as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time.

ARTICLE IIIThis corporation is organized

and shall be operated as a nonprofit corporation solely and exclusively to: further the health and welfare of the citizens of Huachuca City and surrounding areas within Cochise County, Arizona.

Consistent with the foregoing purposes and subject to all other limitations, restrictions, and prohi-bitions set forth in these Articles, this corporation shall have all the powers specified in the Arizona Revised Statutes, as amended from time to time, and to do all and ev-erything necessary, suitable, and proper for the accomplishment of the purposes or attainment of the objects hereinabove set forth either alone or in association with other individuals, corporations, part-nerships, including federal, state, county and municipal bodies and authorities; and, in general, to do and perform such acts and trans-act such business in connection with the foregoing objects which is consistent with law; provided, however, that the corporation shall not perform any act or transact any business that will jeopardize the tax exempt status of the corpora-tion under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and its reg-ulations as such Section and regu-lations now exist, or may hereafter be amended, or under correspond-ing laws and regulations hereafter adopted.

ARTICLE IVNo primary or substantial part

of the activities of the corporation shall be participation in or inter-vention in (including the publish-ing or distributing of statements) any political campaign on behalf of, or in opposition to, any candi-date for public office, or otherwise attempt to influence legislature.

ARTICLE VThe time for the commencement

of this corporation shall be the fil-ing of these Articles of Incorpo-ration as required by law, and the term of its corporate existence shall be one hundred (100) years there-after, with privilege of renewal as provided by law.

ARTICLE VIThis corporation shall be a non-

profit corporation and shall have no stock, and no dividends or pecuni-ary profits shall be declared or paid to the directors hereof or to any other private individual. All the earnings and property of the cor-porations shall be used to further the purposes and objects of the cor-poration as set forth in ARTICLE III.

ARTICLE VIIThe directors, officers, and mem-

bers of the corporation shall not be individually liable for the corpora-tion’s debts or other liabilities. The private property of these individu-als shall be exempt from any corpo-rate debts or liabilities. To the full-est extent permitted by Arizona law and in accordance with and within the limits of the Arizona Revised Statutes, no director or person who serves on a board or council of the corporation in a voluntary capacity, shall be liable to the corporation or its members for monetary damages, for breach of fiduciary duty as a di-rector, or as a member of a board

or a council in an advisory capac-ity. To the fullest extent permitted by Arizona law, and in accordance with the Arizona Revised Statutes, any director or person who serves on the board or council of the cor-poration in an advisory capacity shall be immune from civil liability and shall not be subject to suit di-rectly or by way of contribution for any action or omission resulting in damage or injury if the person was acting in good faith and in further-ance of the purpose or purposes for which the corporation is orga-nized, unless the damage or injury was caused by willful and wanton or grossly negligent conduct of the person. If the Arizona Revised Statutes are hereafter amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the per-sonal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the corpo-ration shall be eliminated or lim-ited to the fullest extent permitted by the Arizona Revised Statutes, as so amended. Any repeal or modifi-cation of this Article VII shall not adversely affect any right or protec-tion of a director of the corporation existing at the time of the repeal or modification.

ARTICLE VIIIThe control and management of

the affairs of the corporation shall be vested in the Board of Directors of not less than 3 nor more than 15 persons. The names of those se-lected to serve as directors, begin-ning with the incorporation of this corporation and until the second annual meeting of the corporation or until their successors shall be elected and qualify, are:

ARTICLE XNo person shall possess any

property right in or to the property or assets of the corporation. Upon dissolution of this corporation as provided in the Bylaws, all assets remaining after payment of any outstanding liabilities shall be dis-tributed exclusively to charitable, religious, educational or scientific organizations which would then qualify under the provisions of Sec-tion 501©(3) or (4) of the Internal Revenue Code and its regulations as such Section and regulations now exist or may hereafter be amended, or under corresponding laws and regulations hereafter adopted and which organizations have purposes and objects similar to those of the corporation, all determined in ac-cordance with the Bylaws.

ARTICLE XIThese Articles of Incorporation

may be amended as provided in the Bylaws of the corporation.

ARTICLE XIIThe corporation shall indemnify

each of its past, present, and future members, directors, officers, and agents, which includes uncompen-sated or volunteer members of advi-sory boards and councils of the cor-poration, against all expenses they incur, including, but not limited to, legal fees, costs, judgments and penalties, which may be incurred, rendered or levied in any legal ac-tion brought against any of them for or on account of any action or omis-sion alleged to have been commit-

ted while acting within the scope of their authority as members, di-rectors, officers, members of advi-sory boards or councils, or agents of the corporation. Whenever any person reports to the President of the corporation that a legal action has been brought or is about to be brought against the person for or on account of any action or omission alleged to have been committed by the person while acting within the scope of the person’s function as a member, director, officer, ad-visory board or council member, or agent of the corporation, members of the Board of Directors, who are not parties to the action, suit or proceedings, at the next regular or at a special meeting held within a reasonable time thereafter, shall determine in good faith whether, in regard to the matter involved in the action or contemplated action, the person acted, or failed to act, in good faith and in the manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceed-ing, has no reasonable cause to be-lieve the conduct was unlawful. If the Board of Directors determines that the person did so act with re-gard to the matter involved in the action or contemplated action, in-demnification shall be mandatory and shall be automatically extended as specified herein; provided that the corporation shall have the right to refuse indemnification in any instance in which the person to whom indemnification would oth-erwise have been applicable shall unreasonably refuse to permit the corporation, at its own expense and through legal counsel of its own choosing, to defend the person in the action. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judg-ment, order, settlement or convic-tion, or upon plea of no contest or its equivalent shall not by itself cre-ate the presumption that the person acted or failed to act other than in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, as reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful. The corporation shall provide for the indemnification in accordance with this Article XII the Arizona Revised Statutes and to the furthest extent permitted by Arizona law.

ARTICLE XIIIThis corporation hereby ap-

points Robert F. Spahle, whose address is 2766 N. Calle Seis, Huachuca City, Arizona, 85616, as its initial statutory agent. All notices and processes, including service of summons, may be served upon said statutory agent; and, when so served, shall be lawful, personal service upon this corpora-tion. The Board of Directors may, at any time, appoint another agent for such purpose, and filing of such other appointment shall revoke this or any other previous appointment of such agent.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, we, the undersigned incorporators, have hereunto signed our names this 10th of February, 2020.
