AG Curtis Hill To Discuss Discovery Of Additional Fetal Remains

0

Attorney General Curtis Hill will hold a media availability this afternoon to discuss the discovery today of additional fetal remains in Illinois believed to be linked to abortions performed in Indiana. The latest remains were found within the confines of additional personal properties associated with the late Dr. Ulrich Klopfer, who performed abortions at Indiana clinics located in Fort Wayne, Gary and South Bend.

Today’s events are the latest developments in an investigation that began when Illinois authorities on Sept. 12 learned that family members going through Dr. Klopfer’s belongings found preserved fetal remains at his residence. On Oct. 2, Attorney General Hill oversaw the transportation of 2,246 aborted fetuses back to Indiana from Will County, Illinois.

“Today we were notified by authorities in Illinois that family members this morning found additional fetal remains as they continued to sort through the late doctor’s belongings,” Attorney General Hill said. “We have dispatched investigators to Illinois to gather facts, but we anticipate simply adding these remains into the protocol we have already set up for dealing with these disturbing circumstances.”

Although little new information is expected to become available today, Attorney General Hill will conduct media interviews from 3:30 p.m. to 4:50 p.m. today at his Statehouse office, located in Room 219. Credentialed media interested in scheduling brief interviews during this time slot may email Lauren Houck at Lauren.Houck@atg.in.gov or call her at (317) 675-6893.

Attorney General Hill also has announced that his office has set up a phone number and email address for the specific use of anyone with possible connections to the fetal remains who may wish to inquire. The email address is questions@atg.in.gov, and the phone number is (317) 234-6663.

Flu season has started so it’s time for a shot

Staff report
TheStatehouseFile.com

INDIANAPOLIS— Cases of influenza are beginning to emerge across the state and the Indiana State Health Department is encouraging Hoosiers to get themselves and their families vaccinated.

Since 2015, 800 Hoosiers have died from flu related illnesses. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends vaccinations for the influenza virus by the end of October because it takes two weeks for antibodies to develop in the body and begin fighting off the influenza virus.

“Although we can’t predict how severe our flu season will be, we are already seeing influenza activity in Indiana, so it’s important that Hoosiers take steps quickly to protect themselves and their loved ones,” Dr. Kris Box, state health commission, said in a news release. “Flu can be deadly, especially in vulnerable populations, so the time to take those protective measures is now.”

Everyone six months and older should get vaccinated, especially those who live with young children or those who work as health care providers.

Flu shots can be obtained through your primary care provider or through many pharmacies such as CVS or Walgreens.

Other precautions to take to avoid spreading the flu virus include washing your hands often, avoiding touching your eyes, nose or mouth and staying home when you feel sick.

Influenza is a viral infection of the respiratory tract and symptons include fever, headache, fatigue, cough, muscle aches, sore throat or runny or stuffy nose.

Pregnant women, young children, people with chronic illnesses, immuno-compromised people, and the elderly are considered high risk for flu-related illnesses including pneumonia or death.

Eagles set for Midwest Region Crossover this weekend

0

 The University of Southern Indiana volleyball team makes its way to Indianapolis later this week to join the rest of the Great Lakes Valley Conference in the Midwest Region Crossover.

The annual tournament, hosted at The Academy Volleyball Club, will showcase the entirety of the GLVC alongside the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference and the Great Midwest Athletic Conference.

The Screaming Eagles carry their 9-10 (3-4 GLVC) record into the Crossover as the 12th-seeded GLVC representative. USI has been matched up with the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, Northwood University and Kentucky Wesleyan College for the two-day event.

For more information on the 2019 Midwest Region Crossover, visit glvcsports.com, or follow the link provided above. Live stats for each USI match can be found via GoUSIEagles.com.

How We Got Here

USI has collected three GLVC victories through the first seven league matches in 2019, chalking-up four-set victories over William Jewell College and Lindenwood University, and a three-set knockout of Southwest Baptist University; two of those victories coming in the friendly confines of the Screaming Eagles Arena.

Freshman outside hitter Leah Anderson (Bloomington, Illinois) continues to lead the attack in aggregate for the Eagles, eclipsing 200 kills on the season with her 12th kill against Lindenwood on Saturday. Anderson is also the leader in total digs and digs/set with 158 digs on a 2.59/set clip.

Senior middle hitter Elexis Coleman (Joliet, Illinois) continues to be an efficient menace at the net, ranking in the top ten in the GLVC with 1.02 blocks/set (65 total) while posting a USI-leading .345 hitting percentage on her way to 2.13 kills/set (138 total). Coleman posted a dominant 14 blocks over the last two matches this past weekend.

Junior setter Casey Cepicky (St. Louis, Missouri) surpassed 500 assists for the season in the win against Lindenwood Saturday night, now sitting just 86 assists away from the 2000-mark for her career. The three-year starter is also second amongst the Eagles this season with 149 digs.

Freshman libero Audrey Crowder (Avon, Indiana) has emerged as a mainstay in the back row for USI of late, recording 46 digs over eight sets in the last two matches for a 5.75 digs/set clip, which would rank near the top of the GLVC leaderboard over the course of the season.

Scouting the Midwest Region Crossover

USI v. Wisconsin-Parkside (Friday; 10 a.m. CT): The Eagles hold a 23-9 series record over the Rangers, but have been nearly an even split (6-5 USI) since 2011. The meeting at the Crossover is the first bout between USI and Parkside since the Rangers left the GLVC after the 2017 season.

About the Rangers: Parkside enters the tournament with a 5-13 (3-6 GLIAC) record in 2019. The Rangers are 1-2 against GLVC members this season, defeating Quincy University in five sets but falling to McKendree University in four and Lewis University in three. Parkside defeated Wayne State University in five sets to open GLIAC play, an opponent USI fell to earlier this season.

USI v. Northwood (Friday; 5 p.m. CT): The Timberwolves hold the historical advantage at 11-7 all-time. The Eagles and Northwood have crossed paths in the Crossover six times since its inception in 2008, with USI taking four of those bouts.

About the Timberwolves: Northwood holds a 4-12 (4-5 GLIAC) tally this season, with the Timberwolves looking to snap a four-match losing skid against Kentucky Wesleyan in the Friday morning session before its date with the Eagles.

USI v. Kentucky Wesleyan (Saturday; Noon CT): The Eagles and Panthers have met already in 2019, during the USI Invitational in September, with USI taking a three-set victory on the back of Anderson’s 13-kill performance. USI held KWC to just a .061 hitting percentage with 11 blocks in that match, while climbing over the .300 plateau themselves.

About the Panthers: Kentucky Wesleyan sits at 8-8 (3-2 GMAC) thus far in 2019, with its 3-2 conference record representing its performance since going 0-3 in the USI Invitational.
