0

user30769-1380896421-media1_7d7d80_192_240_PrsMe_Evansville Police have arrested 39 year old Steven Michael Sandleben on 3 counts of Voyeurism and drug charges.

On August 12, 2013, officers responded to a complaint at the Goodwill Store at 4660 W. Lloyd Expressway. The 911 caller believed Sandleben had video taped her 4 year old daughter, including video taping up her skirt.

Officers received information that led them to Sandleben’s house and he was questioned by investigators. While there was not enough evidence to make an immediate arrest, the investigation continued. A search warrant was obtained for his apartment and computers and camera equipment was seized.

While examining the electronics seized from Sandleben, multiple videos of women were found. The videos were of the victim’s buttocks and vaginal areas. The videos were taken in different locations around the Evansville area. The victims included juveniles and adults. None of the victims appeared to be aware they were being taped.

Sandleben was arrested on May 11, 2013 for taping a 14 year old girl at an east side store and was out on $500 bond when the August investigation began. He is now lodged in the Vanderburgh County Jail on $25,000 bond.

Sandleben is charged with 2 counts of Felony Voyeurism, 1 count of Misdemeanor Voyeurism, 1 count of Misdemeanor Possession of Marijuana, and 1 count of Misdemeanor Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.”

EVSCWhat: First Jacob’s Wish Fund Recipient Announced

When:  Friday, October 4 at 9 a.m.

Where: Glenwood Leadership Academy, 901 Sweetser Avenue

Background:

The Jacob Andrew Schriber Ball Wish Fund was established in spring of 2013, when Jacob Ball passed away at the young age of 12. This EVSC Foundation fund was established to grant wishes of EVSC special education teachers to give their students experiences that give them joy while they learn useful life skills.

Maryellen Lewis, special education teacher at Glenwood Leadership Academy, is the first teacher who had her “wish” granted.  Her desire was to have a way to provide stress release and stimulation for students in her class, who often exhibit movements of bouncing, jumping, leaping, twirling, and spinning. Trips to businesses offering the inflatable equipment have always been enjoyed by the students.  While taking a trip to do this is great, Mrs. Lewis thought having similar equipment in her classroom would enable students to enjoy the sensation continuously.

She said that Jacob, whom the fund is named for and who was a student in her class, “loved bouncing and even just sitting on the trampoline, so these items remind us of his enjoyment each time they are used.”

Individuals wishing to donate to the Jacob Andrew Schriber Ball Wish Fund may do so by credit card at www.evscfoundation.org and click on donate; or send a check to EVSC Foundation, 951 Walnut Street, Evansville, IN 47713.

Contacts at the event:  Teacher Maryellen Lewis; and Gayle Kiesel, executive director of development for the EVSC.

IS IT TRUE October 4, 2013

IS IT TRUE Leadership Evansville has concluded 32 public sessions and spent in the neighborhood of $20,000 taxpayer dollars?…this has all been done in a quest to identify what the people of Evansville think needs to be done to make Evansville a better place to live?…to their credit Leadership Evansville has successfully attracted over 1,000 participants to these meetings?…the dominant age of the participants is under 18 years old with some being as young as 5 years old?…after all of this time, money, and youthful collaboration the top three action items to come from this effort are “healthy green spaces”, “a vibrant core”, and “enhancing experiences”?…while it is admirable to put in such an extended effort the output is quite touchy feely and will mean vastly different things to different people?…these initiatives seem more like a travel agents brochure for a cruise or a visit to some far off exotic location?…it is expected that if 100 people were asked to precisely define what any of these three initiatives mean to them it is highly probably that 100 different answers would be offered?…

IS IT TRUE that vibrant is defined as “full of energy and enthusiasm” and core is defined as “the central or most important part of something?…when you combine these terms vibrant core must mean “the most important part of Evansville being full of energy and enthusiasm”?…while this sounds cool it is pretty hard to really put specific actions in place to achieve such an undefined thing?…the other two initiatives are equally as disparate (def: things that are so unlike there is no basis for comparison) as the vibrant core initiative that being able to define or measure steps toward the goal is as impossible as getting John Boehner and Nancy Pelosi to agree on what the nation should do?…wanting something that can’t be agreed upon, defined, or measured with precision is not a constructive exercise but we are sure everyone felt good when it concluded?

IS IT TRUE it is almost mystifying how such a group would not come up with initiatives like exemplary infrastructure, high skill jobs that pay well, and world class public education?…these kinds of initiatives are the details that lead to things like broad things like “vibrant core” that are impossible to define?…that it what happens when the K-12 crowd is put in charge of setting the agenda?…all due respect to the people who worked hard on this but a general initiative like “Evansville needs to be more like Disneyland” would have been as useful as what came from the process?…pursuing things like “vibrant core” without drilling down to the next level where the age old problems like infrastructure, jobs, and education is simply a smiley face diversion to working on Evansville’s real issues that have lead to a “spiritless core”?…spiritless, sleepy, lifeless, cavernous, etc, are antonyms of vibrant and all still define the state of downtown Evansville?…the real question is whether “core” really means downtown or something different to different people?

IS IT TRUE that it is now the 3rd day of the government shutdown and the sun is still rising, life is still happening, and the FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCOLYPSE (Boehner, Pelosi, Reid, and Obama) are still acting like petulant children who think the world revolves around the breaths they take?…these four and several other members of Congress need to spend the weekend watching Star Trek reruns?…Mr. Spock got it right when he said “THE NEEDS OF THE MANY OUTWEIGH THE NEEDS OF THE FEW OR THE ONE”?…the question is what means few?…few could be the FOUR, or it could in the scope of the entire United States mean the 10 Million?…either way it is a better way to live than being selfish and arrogant?…we support the spirit of Mr. Spock for President?

Pet Of The Week-Screech

0

Screech Powers  – What’s up guys, it’s Screech! He is part of the “Saved by the Bell” litter of kittens. They arrived here as an unwanted litter from a family pet when they were tiny babies. Now, they are five months old. Screech has grown up here at the shelter, and he can only imagine what it’s like to have a family of his own who can give him love & attention 24 hours a day. Don’t you have room on your sofa for one more feline friend who needs you, and who doesn’t need to spend his six-month birthday in the shelter? Screech can go home with you today for $50 neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. You’d also get 30 days of free pet health insurance for him.
