Waters The screams coming from the home on Bennington Drive in Jacksonville, Florida, were loud enough to cause all the dogs in the neighborhood to start barking. Several neighbors called 911 and police soon arrived. Shortly after 10:30 p.m. on August 5, 2008, responding officers made their way into a house of horrors. They found 65-year-old Delores Futrell lying on the floor of her home. She’d been beaten, stabbed repeatedly, and had her throat slashed. Her clothes had been cut off her body, and her empty wallet lay on the floor. The bloody scene shocked even the cops – it was obvious that a frenzy of rage had overtaken the killer or killers. Neighbors, stunned and saddened to hear that one of their own had been murdered, began an all-night vigil outside the well-tended townhouse. An 18-year-old ex-con named Randall Deviney quickly aroused the suspicions of Futrell's relatives. He lived on Byner Drive, a few houses down from the murdered woman. As the stunned family grieved outside Futrell's home, Deviney rode back and forth on his bicycle. Even though he knew the family and had been befriended by Futrell, he seemed hyper and would not stop to speak. To many in the crowd, it seemed as if Deviney was attempting to listen to the conversations of bystanders in an attempt to gain information. Finally, he approached two of Futrell's daughters. He asked if Futrell had been raped, further heightening their suspicions. Deviney liked being known as a bad-a**, a punk with a mean streak. He’d attended Ed White High School, but majored in misconduct instead of academics. To say that he was a poor student was being generous. A former teacher described the young hoodlum as a budding sociopath. “[Deviney] was just defiant and disrespectful, without conscience and remorse,” the teacher said. “He thought he could behave however he wanted. School was nothing more than an inconvenience to him, and if any teacher got in his way they could expect a tirade of foul language...” Deviney should have been in prison when Futrell was murdered. He’d been released after serving one year of a three-year stint in the state penitentiary. His arrest record included aggravated assault, sexual battery, grand theft, armed robbery, trafficking in stolen property, and other crimes. Shortly after being released, Deviney committed yet another robbery. Instead of putting him back in prison, however, a judge let him back out on the streets. Four months later, Futrell was dead. With a blanket of tattoos covering his body, Deviney looked like a walking advertisement for cheap prison art. He’d had little nurturing as a child. Indeed, both his parents had been imprisoned for murdering their sixteen-month-old son. They admitBad Boy (Continued on page 4) The views, opinions and positions expressed in articles submitted by monthly and/or periodic contributors to the Victims' Advocate newspaper do not necessarily reflect the views of the Justice Coalition JSO introduces its new Mobile App Volume 23 • Number 17 • FREE Family endures second murder trial Jury again recommends death for Futrell’s killer By Shirley Shaw “Learning that my sister was so cruelly murdered by someone she knew and befriended was such a huge shock to my senses that I had difficulty processing events that followed. The sorrow was almost overwhelming for me. I could not wrap my brain around the fact that someone would do those things to her.” Debra Wright’s impact statement regarding her sister vividly described the agony she and her family have experienced since the murder of Delores Futrell in August 2008. The brutal, senseless killing of the kind, generous 65-year-old woman – by an 18-year-old neighbor whom she had for years befriended – has been devastating to her family. Jackie Blades said in her impact statement: “I am the oldest daughter of Delores Futrell. When I was younger I never really got to know my mother because she had so many health issues and was frequently hospitalized with MS and its complications, including strokes. My grandparents raised me, but when I became an adult my mother and I became very close. “Words cannot express the pain and anguish our family and friends have endured since my mother was murdered, and the loss is just inconceivable. A person like my mother should have died a peaceful death – not one where she was brutally beaten, her throat slashed and left naked on her floor posed in a freakish position.” These statements were read July 23 at the sentencing of Randall Deviney who was convicted twice – not once, but twice – of the heinous crime. His initial trial in 2010 resulted in a death penalty decision by Judge Mallory Cooper, but it was overthrown on a technicality and the second expensive, week-long trial occurred last month. Beware of Robocall Scams Pam Bondi, Attorney General TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Attorney General Bondi and the Federal Trade Commission filed a joint complaint against a New Yorkbased operation, known as Lifewatch, alleging that the company used blatantly illegal and deceptive telemarketing robocalls to trick older consumers throughout the United States and Canada into signing up for medical alert systems with monthly monitoring fees ranging from $29.95 to $39.95. Many of the victims are on fixed or limited incomes or rely on family members or health professionals to make financial decisions on their behalf. "This company violated the Do Not Call Registry to deceive seniors, not only in Florida, but across the country and we will continue to work with the FTC to do everything in our power to make sure the individuals responsible for this scheme pay," said Attorney General Pam Bondi. The complaint alleges that Lifewatch hired telemarketers to sell these systems on its behalf, that it has known of the use of both false claims and robocalls by its agents, and that it has continued to use these tactics even after one of its largest agents was shut down by Attorney General Bondi’s Office and the FTC more than a year ago. “Some scammers won’t take a hint,” said Jessica Rich, Director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection. “When we sued Lifewatch’s telemarketers for making deceptive robocalls, they just continued the same illegal practices with new telemarketers. The FTC and the Florida Attorney General Delores Futrell Families devastated by the horrendous deaths of their loved ones may have just begun to gain their emotional equilibrium when they must deal with the trial of the murderers. They have to face the evil individuals who, apparently without conscience, have destroyed their lives as well as the lives of those they love. They have to listen without visible response to graphic details of the crime, to defense lawyers who may denigrate their Futrell (Continued on page 6) won’t be deterred and will continue to work together to stop illegal robocalls.” According to the complaint, Lifewatch bombards primarily elderly consumers with unsolicited robocalls, often to numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry, and typically using fake caller ID information. The calls use pre-recorded messages, including one supposedly from “John from the shipping department of Emergency Medical Alert,” to falsely tell the consumers that a medical alert system has been purchased for them, and that they would receive it “at no cost to you whatsoever.” Consumers who press a number to speak with a live operator are told that even though the system cost more than $400, they would receive it for free. However, the telemarketers refuse to answer questions about who bought the systems for the consumers, and tell consumers the offer is only good for one day. The operation has even used the wellknown phrase “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up,” or told consumers they may have seen the product on television, to add an air of legitimacy to the sales pitch.

Monroe St. Jacksonville, FL TO PROTECT AND SERVE Our monthly recognition for the best of the best Police Supervisor of the Month Rickie E. Valentine Police Officer of the Month Billy B. Reinert Patrol Officer Billy Reinert is assigned to Zone 2 (includes Arlington area) and Sergeant Rickie Valentine is assigned to Zone 1(includes the Springfield and downtown areas). Prior to making a lateral move to Zone 1, Valentine was also assigned to Zone 2 and was once Reinert’s supervisor. They are recognized in their respective categories for their teamwork that led to the capture and Valentine arrest of two armed carjacking suspects. Last Oct. 24 officers responded to an armed carjacking at an apartment complex on the Arlington Expressway. Investigation revealed that one suspect held the victim at gunpoint, while the second suspect stole items from the victim’s pockets. The suspects then fled the scene in the victim’s 2014 Honda Accord. While on patrol just after midnight Oct. 25, Reinert observed a Honda Accord travelling at a high rate of speed in the 7100 block of Merrill Road. As he attempted to conduct a traffic stop, the driver veered onto a side street and stopped, at which time the two occupants abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot in separate directions. Reinert used his radio to alert responding units of important details, including the direction of travel and clothing description for each suspect. At this time he and Valentine recognized that this was the vehicle stolen Friday night. Within minutes Reinert Valentine arrived on scene and established a perimeter. While patrol officers were setting up that perimeter, several officers observed one suspect running behind houses on Merrill Road, which prompted him to expand the perimeter. He requested additional resources including K-9 units and the assistance of JFRD which responded with their thermo heat devices to aid in safely searching the wood line. Meanwhile, Reinert decided to remain with the victim’s vehicle so neither suspect could return and leave the area. This decision was also crucial with the preservation of evidence in the case. After two hours of searching, one of the K-9 units got a hit on a locked shed behind a home on Rogero Road. After obtaining the owner ’s permission and getting a key for entry, officers searched the shed where they discovered a male in a camouflage jacket. The subject refused to comply with police orders; therefore, Police Service Dog “Eli” was deployed. The suspect was placed into custody without further incident. Officers continued to search the shed and discovered the second suspect attempting to conceal himself behind a wheelbarrow. After resisting arrest and attempting to flee the area, the second suspect was ultimately taken into custody. After the suspects were in custody, Valentine searched the area and located the firearm that was used during the original offense. Officer Reinert’s awareness and concise communication, along with Sgt. Valentine’s execution and management of resources, resulted in the two felons being taken off the streets of Jacksonville. Corrections Supervisor of the Month Kenneth Westberry Corrections Sergeant Ken Westberry works at the jail where he supervises the Immigration Customs Enforcement 287(g) Unit (ICE). In fact, he was a key player in establishing this unit in 2008. According to Marc Moore, ICE Field Office Director for the Southeast Region, Ken has made this particular 287(g) program the best in the nation and a model for all other programs across the nation. He is recognized for his overall leadership and his commitment to the program. Earlier this year the ICE Unit encountered a subject who appeared to be a United States citizen. The subject had a relatively minor criminal charge and could have been released back into the community following first appearance. Westberry’s team quickly discovered the subject was, in fact, in our country illegally. Upon further investigation they discovered there was a warrant issued by Interpol for the individual on charges of murder. The subject was placed in deportation proceedings and the extradition process was started. Sheriff Rutherford said, “Ken, if it weren’t for your leadership and the attentiveness put forth by your officers, this individual may still be on the streets of Jacksonville today. Thank you for your guidance and overall dedication to making this Unit a success.” His supervisor, Corrections Lieutenant Steven Inman, said, “Kenny ensures his unit has access to the latest and best training and that his officers have the best equipment available. He accomplishes these feats with little or no cost to the Sheriff ’s Office. Kenny welcomes challenges and overcomes obstacles with ease. Whether he has to adjust his officers’ hours, swap days, or come in himself and work a midnight shift, Kenny always does what it takes to get the job done. His leadership is inspirational to others and creates an environment that causes his officers to excel.” Do the right thing. Call police if you have information about a crime. AUGUST 2015 Corrections Officer of the Month Leroy Grant Corrections Officer Leroy Grant is currently assigned to the Services Unit at the Montgomery Correctional Center (also known as the prison). His assignments vary from overseeing daily operations in the prison’s laundry facility to conducting tours for recruit classes and community groups. In addition, he teaches classes to new recruits at the Academy to help them get a better understanding of manipulation methods that an inmate may try to use and ways to detect them. He is being recognized for removing contraband from the building. Since he oversees a work crew, Grant conducts regular searches of the inmates assigned to work for him. These searches are conducted when they return to the laundry room from lunch and prior to returning to their dorms. In early 2014, Grant noticed an inmate assigned to the sanitation work crew attempting to return into the building after taking out the trash. After searching the inmate, Grant found tobacco, contraband that he retrieved from the visitors’ restroom. Investigation revealed that the tobacco was left by a visitor and was intended for another inmate. That visitor was detained and admitted to leaving the tobacco in the restroom for the sanitation inmate to retrieve. She was arrested for introduction of contraband into a detention facility and later pled guilty in exchange for a sentence of two years probation. Grant photographs special events and ceremonies at the prison and events for Correctional Officers’ Week. He is also very involved in service to our community. He visits nursing homes during the Christmas season and supplies throw blankets and lap rolls to the elderly. Also during the holiday season, he dresses up as Santa and distributes gifts to children at local homeless shelters. Corrections Lt. Jason Rogers said, “Officer Grant is an employee I refer to as a rock. He is an expert at his duties and never wavers from the mission at hand. You can always depend on him to be there when needed and make solid decisions due to his vast experience. We, the Services Unit at MCC, are fortunate to have Officer Grant on our team.” Civilian Employee of the Month Debbie Presgraves Clerical Support Aide III Debbie Presgraves, who works at the Patrol Zone 6 substation located on the north side of Jacksonville, is recognized for her community involvement throughout the 2014 calendar year. Last May, Patrol Zone 6 and the Sheriff’s Advisory Council members in that area hosted a ShAdCo Safety Fair at River City Marketplace. These events are designed for the public to visit an array of interactive exhibits and informational booths to learn more about issues such as traffic safety, human trafficking, identity theft and other crime prevention tips. In addition, it provides an outlet for the community, especially children, to interact with law enforcement in a relaxed and informal environ- ment. These events don’t just happen; they take months of planning and coordinating with various partners, which is where Debbie comes into the story. She managed the logistics of getting participants from local law enforcement, health and public safety agencies onboard. Approximately 50 vendors participated and hundreds of citizens attended last year’s event. Retired Assistant Chief T.C. Davis said, “This event cultivated a positive image in the community of not only Debbie as a JSO employee, but of the whole JSO as well.” Also, Debbie was the driving force behind the Zone 6 Christmas party for needy children. In 2014 she partnered with Zone 6 ShAdCo members to make sure all the needs of the party were met including food, individuals to wrap gifts for the children, and of course to make sure Santa was available to attend the festivities. Her most important task was to identify and invite the children who were most in need and not receiving assistance from another organization. In total this event provided 37 children with a gift to open on Christmas day. This type of impact on the community is priceless. Each day Debbie works with the members of the Zone 6 Sheriff’s Advisory Councils, attending subsectors’ monthly meetings and is continually on the phone with them to make sure their issues are addressed. Sheriff Rutherford said, “Debbie, thank you for your continued service to our community. I am honored to present you with this award.” Civilian Employee of the Month Stephen R. Valdes Police Emergency Communications Officer Stephen Valdes, who works in the Communications Unit and handles 911 calls, is recognized for demonstrating one of the Sheriff’s Office Core Values of being Community Focused. Last November 13, Valdes was driving on his day off near the Museum of Science and History (MOSH) when he witnessed a car being driven erratically and running a red light. Just as he called into the Communications Center to report the incident the driver stopped the car near the museum. He saw the male driver of the car slumped over and realized he appeared to be in medical distress. Valdes exited his vehicle to check on the driver while relaying this vital information to the 911 operator. He remained with the citizen until rescue arrived. According to his supervisor, Communications Sergeant Jasmine Lewis, “PECO Valdes has a caring and compassionate nature. He continually goes above and beyond. He displays a professional and helpful nature on a daily basis within the Communications Center. He trains new employees…imparts his vast knowledge and expertise to new employees in a compassionate, informational and jovial manner.” Sheriff Rutherford said, “Stephen, thank you for assisting the citizens of this community both here at work and outside of work.” THE JUSTICE COALITION’S VICTIMS’ ADVOCATE • 3 August 2015 • Volume 23, Issue 17 Founder Ted M.

JSO introduces its new Mobile App JACKSONVILLE, FL (July 7, 2015) - The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office announced its new mobile app, for use with mobile phones and tablets that are on Android or IOS platforms. The application, found in Play/App Stores under “Jax Sheriff,” easily downloads for free, and provides one-touch connections for citizens with popularly used features such as Crime Reporting – Crime Tips – Crime Mapping – Offender and Predator Maps – and all the social media platforms used by the agency to stay in contact with citizens. Development for the app began more than a year ago. During that time the Public Information (PIO) Unit also worked with the city of Jacksonville IT department on upgrades to its public website. The mobile app takes advantage of all the features found on the public website, with easy access using one or two touch navigation. “NOTHING replaces the need for people to call 911 when there is a police emer- gency,” said PIO Officer Melissa Bujeda. “But this mobile app does let you have the privacy and comfort of sitting somewhere and going online to get information or search for data or statistics that you might want when you can’t get to a desktop computer. And you can tip us or Crime Stoppers anonymously. But we remind people NOT to access this app while driving,” she said. “I think one of the best features of the app is the alerts and notifications,” said PIO Officer Chris Hancock. “We wanted people to be able to select what they most wanted to hear about from us. This is a real complement to our Audio Traffic application, too. So drivers can use this to LISTEN to the updates about traffic in Jacksonville. As a parent or grandparent, we think it’s helpful to be able to get text messages about things such as Silver or Amber Alerts and other emergent news, or just look at a map and see where the registered sex offenders are,” he said. Robocall Continued from page 1 Bad Boy Continued from page 1 Eventually, consumers are held responsible for a monthly monitoring fee. Consumers are also told that they will not be billed until they receive and activate the system, when they are actually charged almost immediately. Those who later realize they have been tricked discover that it is difficult to cancel, and have to pay to return the system or pay a $400 penalty. One reason for the increase in the number of robocall complaints may be advances in techted during his trial that they were unfit parents. Deviney’s childhood was plagued with messy divorces, domestic violence, abuse, and drug use. “With his family, he never had a chance,” said his lawyer, Melina Buncome-Williams. It was the same argument always used by the defense when the evidence against their client is overwhelming. While attempting to make the killer into a victim, attorneys never mention the millions of individuals raised in dysfunctional homes who live productive lives and don't murder old defenseless ladies. The real victim, of course, was Delores Futrell. She’d worked as a dialysis technician before retiring, and had four children, seventeen grandchildren, and more great-grandchildren than anyone could count. She was described as a “spiritual person” who cared deeply for others. She loved cooking and tending her garden. Futrell suffered with multiple sclerosis. Because of her condition, she had trouble maintaining her balance. She also had little strength or stamina, leaving her vulnerable. As Deviney grew up, Futrell attempted to help the struggling teen. She baked cakes and cookies for him and his brother, paid him to perform odd jobs around the house, and counseled him on the direction his life was taking. Early in the investigation, detectives questioned the violent ex-con. With no evidence to prove that he was the killer, however, they released him. Then, three weeks after the crime, a DNA profile came back from the lab. Skin from beneath the fingernails of Futrell had been matched to Randall Deviney. He was arrested and charged with the murder of the woman he used to call his "godmother." Deviney confessed, stating that as she once again attempted to counsel him on going straight, he “snapped” and killed her. He informed investigators that he beat the defenseless 4 • THE JUSTICE COALITION’S VICTIMS’ ADVOCATE “Providing citizens with many avenues for a connection with JSO is a primary goal of this administration, and the new mobile app complements our new website (jaxsheriff.org) and makes the agency easy to access for anyone with a tablet or smart phone, like they can with a desktop or laptop computer,” said Lauri-Ellen Smith, of JSO. “The public information team worked very hard to make sure that this app included the information and features our citizens ask us about the most – from the link to our inmate site to the agency’s Facebook and Twitter feeds to the audible traffic information app. People can even access everything from our website with one touch on the app by clicking on the icon of the police car,” she said. The app was developed by thesheriffapp.com, which has created mobile apps for law enforcement in many counties and cities. This was done at a cost of less than $10,000. nology that allow companies to make up to 1,000 robocalls every minute. Generally only non-profits and political organizations are allowed to make robocalls. Companies that have obtained written consent from their customers are also allowed to send prerecorded telephone messages. Attorney General Bondi’s Office and the FTC are seeking a preliminary injunction to stop the defendants’ use of illegal robocalls and deceptive telemarketing claims and to freeze assets so that funds will remain available for eventual restitution to victims. woman until she was helpless. When she didn’t die, he retrieved a fillet knife he’d brought to the scene and cut her throat. Futrell was still alive, so Deviney stabbed her repeatedly until she died. It was a horrible death that demanded the ultimate justice. In 2010, the bad boy of Bennington Drive was convicted and sentenced to death. “He picked the easiest prey,” said prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda. “This was the classic case of why we need the death penalty. It’s horrific. An innocent elderly lady is savagely murdered in her home. What other sentence could there be?” Judge Mallory Cooper stated her reasons for sentencing Deviney to death. “Delores Futrell struggled to survive and scream for help,” Cooper said. “However, her struggle to escape the defendant’s attack was to no avail. There is no doubt that for each of her final breaths, she was acutely aware of her impending death.” After the verdict, Futrell's daughter, Helen Futrell-Stewart, spoke to reporters. “I am left with a hole in my heart,” she said. She stated that the family was glad the trial was over and they were happy the killer received death. If there ever was a case that deserves the death penalty, it's this one. There's no question about the guilt of the killer. According to witnesses in the courtroom, he had absolutely no remorse, and would joke with his defense attorneys while the jurors were outside. It seems obvious that Deviney has a rage to kill, and would certainly murder again if released. And Delores Futrell's family is crushed with the weight of Deviney's horrific act. Lethal injection is too easy for this coldblooded killer. Robert A.

A truly memorable occasion. We were married 44 years. We have two daughters and four grandchildren whom we love very much. Larry took Rebecca’s oldest son Carson on his first hunting trip and began teaching her other son Danny target practice and respect for guns. Amanda’s daughter Miranda and stepson Christopher love the woods too and are becoming skilled hunters like their grandpa. Besides being an avid hunter, Larry loved to fish in different lakes and rivers. He also loved to garden so we’ve always had plenty of fresh vegetables. He wasn’t a cook; however, if I was gone he could survive on milk and cornbread. God has blessed our home and family. We’ve laughed together, played together and cried together. Family has always been important. When supper was ready we all sat at the table for dinner and would say the blessing, thanking God for His bounty. Larry served his country, gave his time to fight in Vietnam and now has given his life, paid the ultimate price because of Agent Orange, a dioxin described as "perhaps the most toxic molecule ever synthesized by man.” At times he felt it was all in vain – suffering with cancer of the prostate, kidneys and bladder, as well as diabetes, heart problems and stroke. His greatest desire was to see his family again in Heaven – his children, grandchildren, brothers and sisters – and his friends, making sure they all have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Although he gave his heart to the Lord many years ago, he didn’t always put God first in his life. He felt that because he worked hard all week he could rest in his own way on Sundays, usually spending the time hunting. In the last year Larry rededicated his life to the Lord and spent every morning on the porch praying and reading his Bible. He wanted to convey his regrets to his family and friends, urging them not to waste time as he had done, but to live every day seeking to please the Lord. Thank you all for coming today. I’m overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and support you’ve extended to our family. God bless you all. Although I didn’t include this in the above eulogy, Larry always supported me and the time I’ve spent working at the Justice Coalition all these years. He sacrificed time we could have spent as a family when I had to attend countless meetings relating to the operation of the organization, or help a family devastated by the loss of a murdered loved one, or handle many other emergencies involving the victims we help every day. Often he personally contributed money when there was an immediate need. He loved the Justice Coalition staff and they reciprocated. Rest in peace, Larry; we all miss you more than we can say. http://www.vva10.org/wild_thing/wildthing.htm 1 New Laws – Sexual Cyberharassment By Jay Howell The recently completed 2015 Florida legislative session passed a new law w h i c h criminalizes the dissemination of sexually explicit images of persons for the purpose of harassing them. In enacting the Bill, the legislature found that a person who is depicted in a sexually explicit image taken with the person’s consent also has a reasonable expectation that the image will remain private. Further, the legislature found that it is becoming a common practice for persons to publish a sexually explicit image of another to Internet websites without the depicted person’s consent, for no legitimate purpose, and with the intent of causing substantial emotional distress to the depicted person. When such images are published on Internet websites, they are able to be viewed indefinitely by persons worldwide and are able to be easily reproduced and shared. The legislature concluded that the existence of these images on Internet websites causes those depicted in the images to suffer significant psychological harm because the publication of the images creates a permanent record of the depicted person’s private nudity or private sexually explicit conduct. The new crime, called “sexual cyberharassment,” bearing the Florida Statute number 784.049, makes it a misdemeanor of the first degree (punishable by up to a year in the local jail) to publish a sexually explicit image of a person that contains or conveys the personal identification information of the depicted person to an Internet website without the person’s consent, for no legitimate purpose, and with the intent of causing emotional distress. The new law defines “sexual explicit image” as any image depicting a person engaged in sexual conduct. The crime is a misdemeanor; however, if a person has a prior conviction for the same crime and commits a second or subsequent crime, the crime is a felony. The new law allows a law enforcement officer to arrest, without an arrest warrant, any person that he or she has probable cause to believe has violated the law. The new statute also provides that the victim may initiate a civil action against a person who violates this law and such civil action may include an injunction and monetary damages. One issue that always comes up in cybercrimes is the geographic location where the crime occurs. Since the harassment can be initiated by an out-of-state computer, questions often arise as to whether Florida has the jurisdiction to prosecute the criminal case. The new law states that a violation of this law is committed Sexual Cyberharassment within Florida if any conduct that is a part of the offense, or any harm to the depicted person resulting from it, occurs within this state. The Florida legislature, citing several existing federal laws, exempted a provider of interactive computer services from the criminal sanctions contained in the new law. The Bill which enacted this new statute is Senate Bill 538 and the law takes effect October 1, 2015. Jay Howell, a Jacksonville attorney, has been a State Prosecutor, a US Senate Investigator and is the founder of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. He represents crime victims in civil claims for damages and advocates for the legal rights of all victims. Bohannon Brothers’ Murderers Receive Life Sentences By Angela Corey State Attorney In July 2013, the Bohannon family was changed forever when two brothers lost their lives. Andrew Bohannon, 24, and his younger brother, Matthew, 19, were gunned down and murdered in the parking lot of the Golden Corral on Normandy Boulevard. The pain this family has dealt with over the last two years is unimaginable. These murders are also just two examples of the senseless crimes being committed in Jacksonville. While the Bohannon family continues to deal with the pain, they do have some closure in this case. Assistant State Attorneys John Guy and Garrett Hill recently convicted one of the defendants in the crime. Avery Damon Wood Jr., 21, was recently sentenced to three consecutive life sentences for his involvement in the murders of the Bohannon brothers. Wood was found guilty of two counts of felony murder in the first degree and one count of armed robbery. The evidence shows that Wood, along with three codefendants, met with the victims at the Golden Corral. The Bohannons believed Wood and his co-defendants were buying marijuana from them. When the brothers arrived in the parking lot, two of Wood’s co-defendants approached them. Seconds later, Andrew and Matthew Bohannon were fatally shot in their heads. Co-defendant George Carter Jr. has been convicted and sentenced to two life terms plus 40 years in prison for two counts of murder in the first degree, one count of armed robbery, and one count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Steven Bennett pleaded guilty and is awaiting sentencing on two counts of murder in the second degree and one count of armed robbery. The fourth codefendant, Jallil Graves, is set to go to trial in the fall. Our prayer is Wood’s conviction and sentence will bring some peace to the Bohannon family while we continue to seek justice for Matthew and Andrew.

It almost felt like my sister’s murder was his only case. They showed care, compassion, professionalism, and determination to get justice for Delores.

ASA de la Rionda asked Lysa to be the advocate for the family during the trial, not just because of her expertise in murder cases involving the death penalty, but because of her own experience several years ago. She says, “Even though the family has been through this once before, it’s still a scary scenario, being in the courtroom. We have excellent prosecutors and I felt confident, based on all the evidence, that Deviney would again be convicted. And I, for one, believe the death penalty mother, and her family can feel forgotten or lost in the justice process. Without the three agencies being there for support we would not feel like there was anyone on our side and it would be very easy to lose hope in our justice system. Randall has confessed twice and I hope in his appeals the Supreme Court takes his confession and public admittance of guilt into consideration and lets his sentences stand. I don't want to have to go through this again. I want my life back so I can mourn my mother and live my life without constant reminders of the grief and pain!!!” Debra Wright concluded: “I know the murderer will appeal On December 29, 2009, Lysa Telzer experienced her own trauma when she went to the home of her mother-in-law, Renie Telzer-Bain, because she couldn’t reach her by phone. There she found the beloved 82-year-old she called Mother, lying on the bedroom floor of her ransacked home, brutally murdered. Lysa’s impact statement at the killer’s trial said in part: “I looked into the bedroom, and I saw her little feet and her little socks and her little green scrubs hanging out on the floor on the other side of the bed. I kneeled down. She was facedown. Thank God I didn't lift up her face, but her hand was ice cold. I knew she was not alive." is justified.” Jackie Blades sent us a recent email: “I really appreciate everything the Justice Coalition, Compassionate Families and the State Attorneys office have done for our family. Bernie and his staff were great for not only prosecuting the case with diligence, not making any deals with the defendant, but also with helping to defray costs to us – and thanks to the Justice Coalition for supporting us and sitting with us in court. “Sometimes it feels that protecting the defendant’s rights takes priority over what happened to my as often as the courts will allow him. He’ll use precious resources and tax dollars that should be reserved for those with valid appeals. This is ludicrous and an insult to all victims and their families. I pray that the appeals fail and I never have to attend another trial. The defendant admitted to the gruesome crime twice. He has had his day in court multiple times. He has been found guilty of first degree murder twice. No more! Let my sister rest in peace. Let us remember Delores Futrell’s life with love and laughter instead of tears and sadness. It’s time.” Sgt. Rob Beers, Det. Mike Tomberg, Officers Erica McRae and Erin Bowling, Zone 1 Secretary Teresa Anderson-Wright, Lt. Andre Ayoub, Trel Eva, Lt. Brian Richardson and Lt. Jimmy Ricks (not shown) Business owner presents award to Zone 1 JSO Officers Trel Eva, who operates Trel’s Auto Repair at Pearl and 22nd Streets, got fed up with crime in his area – prostitution, drugs, alcohol – that was ruining his business, so he called JSO’s Zone 1 substation with his concerns. Zone Commander Andre Ayoub responded immediately to Trel’s request for help, and his officers began arresting lawbreakers, with quickly noticeable results. This fairly new Jacksonville resident said, “Ayoub took my case personally and would call me or stop by to check on the situation. I’m so grateful to Sheriff Mike Williams (who ap- AUGUST 2015 proved this award) and all these JSO officers who work every day helping people like me. I just wanted to show my appreciation in some small way.” Trel presented a plaque to Ayoub and offered delicious fried chicken to the officers who took just a few minutes from their daily routine to grab a bite. The Justice Coalition joins Trel and his friend, Kenitha Smalls (photographer), in extending appreciation to Sheriff Williams and all law enforcement personnel whose often dangerous jobs help keep us safe.

The word ‘facilitate’ doesn’t begin to describe all she does to make these events a success – we can’t imagine doing the RIdE without her. When the Justice Coalition has a fund-raiser, photos and descriptions of the occasion highlight speakers, participants and victims for whom we work. Oftentimes, however, those working behind the scenes – and without whom the event could not have occurred – are not given the credit they deserve. So this Hats Off is honoring those unsung heroes, specifically Missy. She has been the Events Coordinator at Adamec for 15 years and has been an integral part of the RIdE all four years they’ve hosted it. Actually, her title is General Merchandise, HOG (Harley Owners Group) Chapter Manager, Events and Learn to Ride Coordinator – which shows what a vital role she plays at this well-known biker establishment. Adamec offers a Learn to Ride program that qualifies participants who pass it to get an endorsement on their driver’s license. Participants go through all the basics, starts and stops, all the skills required to operate a motorcycle, and Adamec also teaches an advanced course to further those skills. Missy says owners Mark and Chris Adamec allow her to assist at various events to give back to the community on behalf of Adamec. The HOG ON THE SIDE OF VICTIMS!! AUGUST 2015 helps advertise Chapter events, getting word out to other clubs who also participate. “Almost every event we do is for non-profits, for charity. We have a weekly cookout – we provide the food and different biker clubs prepare it. Proceeds go to children’s hosveterans’ homes, pitals, Wreaths Across America (an that places organization wreaths on graves of veterans in honor of their sacrifice) and other charitable organizations. I feel honored to be a part of this generous, community-oriented business.” Besides helping get the word out to biker participants in the Ride for Justice, Missy was a member of the RFJ planning committee, sold tickets, provided registration information to Lynn Boone at the JC office, solicited/obtained items for the silent auction and just did whatever was required to make the event successful. She and Lynn made arrangements for motorcycles that VIPs without their own bikes would ride, and Missy was responsible for all the drinks – Coke products and bottled water – that were absolutely necessary on such a hot day. She is quick to share credit with others for all the work that goes into such an event. Lynn, other employees at the JC office and all the wonderful volunteers worked many hours – keeping track of registrants, making gift bags (containing tee shirts, coupons from Adamec and Nothing Bundt Cakes, and other goodies) for riders, setting up tables, manning the registration table, and so many other tasks. Missy, who commutes from Brunswick, Georgia, where her husband works at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), is married with four adult children: Eric Rivera, Jr., Taylor Belyew, Madison Ferra and Stephanie Rivera. She loves to ride as a passenger on the motorcycle with her husband Eric, and they – like most avid bikers – participate in many charity events. This young woman with a compassionate heart enjoys working with the Justice Coalition and applauds the work we do for victims. She says, “They didn’t ask to be in situation the they’re in, but the Justice Coalition is there to help them.” RIDE FOR JUSTICE GALLARY – Continued from page 8 At Right: JC’s Roxy Tyler with supporter George Wilson.

THE JUSTICE COALITION’S VICTIM’S ADVOCATE • 11 On the Lighter Side ... (Back to School) Organic Biology Final Exam A professor stood before his class of 20 senior organic biology students, about to hand out the final exam. “I want to say that it’s been a pleasure teaching you this semester. I know you’ve all worked extremely hard, and many of you are off to medical school after the summer. So that none of you gets your GPA messed up because you might have been celebrating a bit too much this week, anyone who would like to opt out of the final exam today will receive a ‘B’ for the course.” There was much rejoicing amongst the class as students got up, passed by the professor to thank him, and signed out on his offer. As the last taker left the room, the professor looked out over the handful of remaining students and asked, “Anyone else? This is your last chance.” One more student rose up and took the offer. The professor closed the door and took attendance of those students remaining. “I’m glad to see you believe in yourselves,” he said. “Each of you gets an ‘A.’” Adoption The couple was delighted when their long wait to adopt a baby came to an end. The adoption center called and told them that there was a wonderful Russian baby boy available. The couple accepted him without hesitation.
