Otters Sign Barrios, Cullen And Wynne

0

The Evansville Otters signed infielder Pedro Barrios, outfielder Hunter Cullen and right-handed pitcher Randy Wynne.

 Barrios comes to Evansville after playing college baseball for the Bulldogs of Tennessee Wesleyan University from 2015-17. As a senior in 2017 at the NAIA powerhouse, Barrios hit .350 with 15 doubles and 38 RBIs.

He finished his two-year stay at TWU with a .366 batting average, 77 RBIs and 173 hits after beginning his collegiate career at Ranger College.

“Pedro is a very talented young player and we are looking for him to compete for a middle infield position,” Otters manager Andy McCauley said. “He had a very good senior year at Tennessee Wesleyan and we are hoping he can continue that play with the Otters.”

Former Otter Wynn Pelzer, who is now a scout for the Milwaukee Brewers and based in southern California, recommended Cullen to McCauley. Cullen played for Cal State Fullerton from 2015-17 after beginning his collegiate career at Saddleback College in 2014.

As a senior in 2017, Cullen hit .251 and finished with eight doubles, two triples and six home runs. He appeared in 127 games for the Titans in his career and stole 11 bases.

“Hunter will be looking to compete for a starting job in our outfield,” McCauley said. “He comes from a very prestigious baseball program in Cal State Fullerton and played in the NCAAs three times there as a player.”

Wynne also came from a recommendation from a Minnesota Twins scout and arrives in Evansville after playing two seasons in the United Shore Professional Baseball League for the Birmingham-Bloomfield Beavers.

Last season, Wynne appeared in 15 games on the mound and finished 7-4 with a 3.54 ERA in 86.1 innings. In 2016, he pitched 61.1 innings while going 5-4 with a 3.08 ERA.

Before joining the Beavers, he played collegiately at Grossmont Junior College and Missouri Baptist. 

“He looks to be capable arm that should figure into our rotation,” McCauley said. 

The Evansville Otters are the 2006 and 2016 Frontier League champions. Group packages and season tickets are now on sale. For more information, visit evansvilleotters.com or call 812-435-8686.

Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill praises Indiana Supreme Court decision in lethal injection case

1

Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill today praised an Indiana Supreme Court ruling that helps clear the way for the execution of a convicted rapist and murderer.

The Court ruled that the Indiana Department of Correction (DOC) operated within appropriate legal boundaries when it changed its lethal injection protocol without adopting or promulgating any rule change under Indiana’s Administrative Rules and Procedures Act (ARPA).

A Death Row inmate convicted of rape and murder had argued that his rights were violated when the DOC altered a three-drug combination used for executions without following ARPA procedures for a rule change. The Court accepted the DOC’s argument that the protocol change amounted to internal DOC policy exempt from ARPA’s requirements and noted that the DOC did not impose new burdens or restrictions on the inmate’s conduct.

“The challenge mounted against the DOC in this case was merely an effort to impede the wheels of justice,” Attorney General Hill said. “Thanks to the Court’s wisdom, however, the path is now clear once again toward a destination that is right and proper for those dangerous lawbreakers who commit society’s most heinous crimes.”

Former ND law clinic employee pleads guilty to 11 felonies

0

Marilyn Odendahl for www.theindianalwyer.com

The former employee of the University of Notre Dame who was charged with taking nearly $200,000 from the law school’s Clinical Law Center will plead guilty plea and faces up to five years in prison.

Jennifer Ihns has agreed to plead guilty to 11 felonies, including one count of corrupt business influence, one count forgery and nine counts of theft, and to pay $199,000 in restitution to the university. She also agreed to a potential executed sentence of no longer than five years.

The plea was conditionally accepted. A sentencing hearing has been set for 9 a.m. April 13 before St. Joseph Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Sanford.

Ihns’ attorney, Stanley Wruble III, did not return a call seeking comment.

According to the supplemental affidavit filed by the St. Joseph County Prosecutor’s Office, Ihns engaged in a pattern of racketeering activity with more than 200 thefts and more than 95 forgeries between January 2009 and June 2016 while she was employed at the law clinic. She wrote and cashed checks to herself from the clinic’s operating account and from the clinic’s Interest of Lawyer Trust Account.

Ihns, who had signatory authority over all the clinic bank accounts, hid her thefts with a series of forgeries. When the scanned images of the cashed checks arrived from the bank each month, Ihns altered either the recipient or the amount to cover her looting of the clinic accounts.

“The breadth of all her illicit activities may never be fully known — but there are over 255 separate checks on separate days representing separate thefts of University/Clinic/Client funds over a seven-and-one-half-year period,” David Newton, investigator for the St. Joseph County Prosecutor’s Office, wrote in his supplemental affidavit.

Ihns began her career at what was then the Legal Aid Clinic as a paralegal and office coordinator. She worked her way up to clinic administrator.

Her crimes were discovered after an internal audit by the University of Notre Dame in mid-June 2016. The inquiry found improper handling of clinic funds and highlighted Ihns as critical to understanding the scope of what had occurred.

She initially denied any wrongdoing, but when confronted with the altered checks, she said, “I did it.” Ihns explained she had a “financial need” and that all the money was gone. Her employment at the clinic ended July 7, 2016.

The audit found no of losses by any of the clinic’s clients but Ihns’ recordkeeping created instances of ambiguity, according to the supplemental affidavit. In those cases, Notre Dame paid those clients so that Ihns’ conduct only harmed the university.

Evansville, IN — Award-winning multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer Brian

Culbertson will perform live in concert on Tuesday, May 8 at 7:30 p.m. at the Victory Theatre in

Brian Culbertson is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer known for his distinct brand of genre-crossing contemporary jazz, R&B and funk. Mining the urban sounds of musically-rich Chicago, he began his musical studies on piano at age eight and quickly picked up several other instruments by the time he was twelve, including drums, trombone, bass and euphonium. Inspired by the iconic R&B-jazz-pop artists of the 1970s like Earth, Wind & Fire, Tower of Power, Chicago, David Sanborn and others, Culbertson started composing original music for his seventh grade piano recital and hasn’t stopped since, amassing 30 Billboard No. 1 singles (and counting!) and a deep catalogue of 18 albums, most of which have topped the Billboard contemporary jazz charts.

Having worked and performed with countless industry all-stars such as Michael McDonald, Chris Botti, Ledisi, Barry Manilow, Herb Alpert, Natalie Cole, Maurice White (EWF), Chuck Brown and Bootsy Collins just to name a few, Culbertson has won numerous awards and accolades along with nominations from the NAACP Image Awards and Soul Train Awards. In 2012, he founded the Napa Valley Jazz Getaway, a flourishing wine, music and lifestyle experience for which he also serves as artistic director.

With love, romance and his recent twentieth wedding anniversary serving as his inspiration, Culbertson crafted thirteen new songs that will be released as “Colors of Love” on Valentine’s Day. The seduction begins with the first single, the amorous title track, which is a sensual R&B groove illuminated by lyrical acoustic piano melodies typical of the collection’s contents. A nearly three-month-long U.S. concert tour will bring “Colors of Love” to life in a vivid theatrical production, incorporating video elements in a major way.

Regardless of his success and numerous accomplishments, fans can rest assured that Culbertson always brings his very best – and brings the very best out of others – in all of his broad-ranging musical and creative endeavors.
