Ottoville 5-year Ditmeyer sets world record Fittro to present drug recognition Forecast ends program FY 16 in black
Upfront
Staff reports Delphos Police Chief Kyle Fittro will be the next speaker in Jefferson High Schools Share the Knowledge program at 3:15 p.m. Tuesday in the cafeteria. Chief Fittro will present Updates on the Streets Drug Recognition and New Laws. The public is invited. BY NANCY SPENCER nspencer@delphosherald.com OTTOVILLE School board members here passed the districts Fiscal Year 2012 Five-Year Forecast which will be submitted to the Ohio Department of Education by Oct. 31. The forecast ends FY 2016 in the black. Treasurer Bob Weber reviewed how he arrived at each projection and answered questions during Wednesdays regular monthly meeting. The district shows an estimated General Fund balance on June 30, 2012, of $2,793,752; June 30, 2013 - $2,898,000; June 30, 2014 - $2,556,507; June 30, 2015 - $1,907,301; and June 30, 2016 - $948,547. The board passed a resolution stating Ottoville Local School Board opposes House Bill 136 for school choice. There are so many things wrong with this bill, Superintendent Scott Mangas said. This takes money directly from public schools and gives it to private schools in the guise of student choice. They also dont have to accept every student who applies like we do. This is not a good bill. The district contacted Rep. Lynn Wachtmann with no satisfaction. Calls were then made to Senator Cliff Hite, with no return call. The district received budget approval for Race to the Top funds on Friday. The program allots $100,000 to each participating district doled out in $25,000 increments for four years.

DELPHOS Some may say when it rains, it pours but whenever heavy rain hits this city, residents may count on flooding in the street. Many may think Delphos has an inadequate sewer system unable to handle heavy rainfall. The Delphos Herald gets its weather record information each day from the wastewater treatment plant, which recorded 2.97 inches of rain for Wednesday. City Safety Service Director Greg Berquist explains how much the system can tolerate. When streets flood, that means weve exceeded capacity. One inch of rain (over one acre of land) equals a million gallons. I dont know how many acres the city covers but we can take 12 million gallons at the wastewater treatment plant. Then, well start pumping it out to the lagoons. Hopefully, we wont fill them up but if that happens, well start discharging into the creek. We dont do

In Sirte, the ecstatic former rebels celebrated the citys fall after weeks of bloody siege by firing endless rounds into the sky, pumping their guns, knives and even a meat cleaver in the air and singing the national anthem. Libyas new leaders had said they would declare the countrys liberation after the fall of Sirte. The death or capture of Gadhafi adds greater solidity to that declaration. It rules out a scenario that some had feared that he might flee deeper into Libyas southern deserts and lead a resistance campaign against Libyas rulers. The fate of two of his sons, Seif al-Islam and Muatassim, as well as some top figures of his regime remains unknown, but their ability to rally loyalists would be deeply undermined with Gadhafis loss. Information Minister Mahmoud Shammam said he was told that Gadhafi was dead from fighters who said they saw the body. Our people in Sirte saw the body, Shammam told The Associated Press. Revolutionaries say Gadhafi was in a convoy and that they attacked the convoy. He said the government head, Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, would officially confirm the death, but it was not clear when. Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril, the number two in the administration, called a press conference for 4 p.m. local time (10 a.m EDT)

Albright nearly three weeks after the murder. Jones wrote about his plan to dispose of his grandmothers body. I was going to bag up Granny in a big trash bag with the other garbage and haul it to the dump, wrote Jones in that letter. The only witness for the defense was Joette Jones, who spoke about the changes in her son after his 1996 auto accident which left him unconscious for two weeks and hospitalized for more than three months. She testified that after Shawn Jones came home from the hospital, He was not the Shawn we knew. She also stated that Shawn was scheduled to be tested on Oct. 5 four days after the murder to determine if he was disabled enough for a Social Security disability. Joette Jones also testified about the experience of discovering the body of her mother that night. She did not recall seeing anything wrapped around LaRues neck, but did remember seeing what she believed to be the alarm clock on the floor between the body and the bathroom. A short time later, Shawn Jones brought that alarm clock to police officers, saying it would have his fingerprints on it. He also claimed to have taken it from around his grandmothers neck. Gordon tried to create suspicion toward Albright, accusing him of sneaking into the home that day. Albright firmly denied the accusation, saying he really liked the woman who had treated him like her own grandson. The first two days of the trial featured a wealth of testimony from police officers, investigators and forensic information. The videotape of Jones confessing to the murder on Oct. 2 was also presented over Gordons objection. In the tape, Jones denies having any part in his grandmothers death but eventually admits hitting her and wrapping the cord around her neck. He claimed that she was still alive when he left the house but admitted that his actions caused LaRues death and that she probably drowned in her own blood. He also told the police detective to tell his mother, Im sorry.

who utilize our services. Credit unions make a profit but the goal is service, not greed. We have to have enough capital in reserve to make loans and cover them; to invest in the community, like with our new branch in Delphos; and for operations but we give it back by paying higher than market rates on CDs, money markets and savings and deposit products and charge lower than market rate on loan products, he said. Like banks which are federally insured with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, credit unions are also insured through a federal agency the National Credit Union Administration. The two are considered virtually identical because the NCUA protects money held in a credit union up to $250,000 per account, just as the FDIC does with the money held in a bank account. The only difference is not one taxpayer dollar has ever been spent to cover defaulted loans. Credit unions take care of themselves, Neeper concluded.

tried to save a tiger in a heavy bramble by using a tranquilizer dart, but the animal charged her then tried to flee. It had to be shot and killed by sheriffs deputies. I was about 15 feet from him and took a shot, and it didnt respond too much, and I thought we were OK, but within about 10 seconds he roared and started toward me, she said. Sheriffs Deputy Jonathan Merry, among the first to respond on Tuesday, said he shot a number of animals, including a gray wolf and a black bear who charged him from 7 feet away. He said hes an animal lover and only took pride in knowing he was protecting the community. All these animals have the ability to take a human out in the length of a second, he said. The Humane Society of the United States criticized Gov. John Kasich for allowing a statewide ban on the buying and selling of exotic pets to expire in April and called for an emergency rule to crack down on exotic animals until the state comes up with a permanent legal solution. Every month brings a new, bizarre, almost surreal incident involving privately-held, dangerous wild animals, Wayne Pacelle, president and chief executive of the Humane Society, said in a statement. In recent years, Ohioans have died and suffered injuries. ... Owners of large, exotic animals are a menace to society, and its time for the delaying on the rulemaking to end. Activist group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals also called for emergency regulations and pointed the finger at Gov. John Kasich, saying the incident should serve as his wake-up call. Surely, after this latest incident, enough blood has been shed for the state to take action, the group said in a statement.
Dear EarthTalk: Whats the latest in regard to putting limits on greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S.? Is there any hope that Obama can get something done? Bradley Johnson, Helena, MT Our best hope to date was 2009s American Clean Energy and Security Act (ACES), a bill that called for the implementation of a cap-and-trade system to limit carbon dioxide emissions by capping overall emissions and allowing polluters to buy or sell greenhouse gas pollution creditssimilar to what the European Union has been doing since 2005 to successfully reduce its own emissionsdepending upon whether they were exceeding established limits or had succeeded in coming in below them. According to the bill, U.S. businesses needing to pollute more could buy emissions credits on the open market; those able to reduce emissions could sell their pollution credits on the same trading floor. Thus there is a built-in incentive to reduce emissions: If you exceed pollution limits you have to keep buying costly credits; and if you can get below limits you can profit from the sale of credits for the difference. Among the bills key provisions was a 17 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions below 2005 levels by 2020, with a mid-century goal of an 80 percent reduction. Also, billions of dollars would have gone to initiatives bolstering green transportation, energy efficiency and related research and development. The bill was
approved by the House in June 2009 by a narrow 219-212 vote. But Senate Democrats decided they didnt have enough votes to get a version of the bill passed, and tabled the discussion. While ACES may not have made it into the law books, its passage by the House was significant as it represented the first time the legislative branch called for sweeping climate legislation. Also, the bills provisions served as a guideline for U.S. negotiators heading to Denmark later in 2009 for the COP15 international climate talks (although in the end nothing binding was agreed upon there). Then, in May 2010 Senators John Kerry and Joe Lieberman unveiled their own cap-andtrade climate bill for the Senate.
Dubbed the American Power Act, it aimed to reduce overall U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by similar amounts as ACES. But with the nation still reeling from the effects of BPs Gulf oil spillthe American Power Act include provisions for offshore drillingand Senate Republicans leery of any climate legislation, the bill failed to make it to a floor vote. Some point the finger at a handful of Democratic Senators from coalproducing states for not supporting their party colleagues. Others say Obama wasnt advocating strongly enough despite his campaign rhetoric on the topic. The best one could plausibly hope for in the next Congress, assuming only modest Republican gains, is some sort of weak cap on utility emissions, possibly with some weak oil saving measures, though that would still require Obama to do what he refused to do under more favorable political circumstancespush hard for a bill, writes commentator Joe Romm of Think Progress, a liberal political blog. Romm adds that its inconceivable to think the next Congress would even contemplate strong climate or clean energy legislation without Obama undergoing a major strategy change and taking a very strong leadership role in crafting the bill and lobbying for the bill and selling it to the public.
Politics still stand in the way of efforts to limit U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Two efforts, the American Clean Energy and Security Act (ACES) of 2009 and the American Power Act of 2010, got tabled or failed to make it to the Senate floor for a vote. ACES was, however, passed by a narrow margin in the House of Representatives, the first time the legislative branch has called for sweeping climate legislation.

WASHINGTON (AP) Citigroup has agreed to pay $285 million to settle civil fraud charges that it misled buyers of a complex mortgage investment just as the housing market was starting to collapse. The Securities and Exchange Commission said Wednesday that the big Wall Street bank bet against the investment in 2007 and made $160 million in fees and profits. Investors lost millions. Citigroup neither admitted nor denied the SECs allegations in the settlement. We are pleased to put this matter behind us and are focused on contributing to the economic recovery, serving our clients and growing responsibly, Citigroup said in a statement. The penalty is the biggest involving a Wall Street firm accused of misleading investors before the financial crisis since Goldman Sachs & Co. paid $550 million to settle similar charges last year. JPMorgan Chase & Co. resolved similar charges in June and paid $153.6 million. All the cases have involved complex investments called collateralized debt obligations. Those are securities that are backed by pools of other assets, such as mortgages. Citigroups payment includes the fees and profit it earned, plus $30 million in interest and a $95 million penalty. The money will be returned to the investors, the SEC said. In the July-September quarter, Citigroup earned $3.8 billion. CEO Vikram Pandit this year was awarded a multi-year bonus package that could be worth nearly $23.4 million if performance goals are met. At the height of the financial crisis in 2008, regulators worried that Citigroup was on the brink of failure. It received $45 billion as part of the $700 billion government bailout. In the civil lawsuit filed Wednesday, the SEC said Citigroup traders discussed in late 2006 the possibility of buying financial instruments to essentially bet on the failure of the mortgage assets being assembled in the deal. Rating agencies downgraded most of the investments that Citigroup had bundled together just as many troubled homeowners stopped paying their mortgages in late 2007. That pushed the investment into default and cost its buyers hedge funds and investment managers several hundred million dollars in losses. Among the biggest losers were Ambac, a bond insurer, and BNP Paribas, a European bank. Ambac had sold Citigroup protection against losses on the investment, allowing Citigroup to bet against it. Hedge funds had asked Citigroup to sell them investments that would decline if the housing market crashed. Citigroup did so, and wanted to get in on the action, the SEC said. Citigroup bet that the investments would fail, but never told investors it had done so, SEC enforcement chief Robert Khuzami said in a conference call. Key facts regarding how the structure was put together were not made available to (investors), and they suffered losses as a result, he said.
Perry, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, businessman Herman Cain and others looking to emerge as the alternative to Romney. Iowa conservatives have long viewed Romney skeptically for his reversals on abortion rights and gay rights, and they have viewed his Mormon faith warily. Perry also will give an economic speech on Tuesday in South Carolina. Romney contends his business background makes him the strongest Republican in the field able to take on Obama on the economy, and Perry needs to counter that. The Texan will point to his states job growth during his tenure as governor, and, in a bid to win over fiscal conservatives, he plans to call for tax changes that would apply the same rate to all citizens, regardless of income level. Previewing the proposal, Perry said Wednesday that jumpstarting the economy starts with scrapping the 3 million words of the current tax code and starting over with something much simpler: a flat tax. I want to make the tax code so simple that even Timothy Geithner can file his taxes on time. It was a reference to Obamas Treasury secretary. Behind the scenes, the candidates with the most money Perry and Romney and their allied groups are gearing up for the inevitable TV ad war. Each campaign is sitting on roughly $15 million and counting, and there are less than 75 days before the Iowa caucuses.
WASHINGTON A beleaguered president seeks reelection. His challenger, a candidate with Massachusetts roots and a presidential demeanor straight out of central casting, has to fight through a primary contest fending off charges of flip-flopping. In the end, the challengers strength also proves his vulnerability. Election 2012 is looking a lot like the presidential race of 2004. Democrats in and around President Barack Obamas campaign are preparing to run against former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney the man they believe likely to emerge from the Republican contest by borrowing from the playbook George W. Bush and Republicans used to defeat Sen. John Kerry seven years ago. As candidates, Kerry and Romney are remarkably similar. Both are wealthy men, products of Massachusetts politics, eloquent on the stump but perceived as remote or aloof on the campaign circuit. Even before Romney has won a single nominating contest, Obamas camp is singling him out as a fickle politician and is preparing to go straight
of success, said Democratic consultant Tad Devine, who crafted the ads for Kennedy and later served as a senior adviser to Kerrys presidential campaign. Obama advisers are keenly aware of Kennedys line of attack and are counting on similar results. In his professional life, he was an expert in stripping down companies and leading them to bankruptcy and profiting from these ventures, with a lot of jobs lost in the process, said Obama strategist David Axelrod, previewing a potential line of attack. Whenever youre running for president of the United States and you represent yourself in a certain way and you say heres my core asset, then you need to be able to stand by your record, Axelrod added in an interview. It was problematic for him then; it will be problematic for him now. Republicans concede that Romney could be vulnerable. But they say the Romney camp should be ready for the onslaught. Michael Dennehy, a New Hampshire-based Republican strategist, said he remembers Kennedys anti-Romney ads as being just brutal and very, very effective.
The nuclear issue on the Korean peninsula arose through the fault of the USA, which constantly threatens the sovereignty and security of our people, Kim was quoted as saying. Kim, however, called for the nuclear talks resumption, saying denuclearization is a testament to his late father, North Korea founder Kim Il Sung. On today in Beijing, Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said: We welcome the U.S. and (North Korea) engaging in dialogue. We also hope that the relevant parties can maintain the momentum of dialogue and contact, show flexibility and create conditions for the quick resumption of the six-party talks. Also, the U.S. this week began negotiations with the North on resuming the search for the remains of service members missing from the 1950-53 Korean War. Coming after nearly two years of minimal contact, it is a flurry of diplomacy, but the administration stresses that despite the personnel change, its policy has not changed.

It helped the Red and White cause that the Pirates, in only their second season back at the varsity level after dissolving the program for a season due to poor numbers, struggled in finding any consistency in the hitting department (29 errors), leading to runs of 7-0, 7-0 and 6-0 by the Lady Jeffcats. Either that, or Stockwell, classmate Katie Goergens (7 kills; 3 aces) and junior Fallon Van Dyke (6 kills; 6 aces; 7 assists) were controlling the net against an overmatched Pirate unit.

JIM METCALFE
The death of Dan Wheldon Sunday in the IndyCar finale struck the racing world hard. After the 15-car crash at Las Vegas Motor Speedway just 12 laps in, he was airlifted to the local hospital and the race was held up for two hours. When it was announced that he had died, the racers decided to end the race right there, instead finishing up with a 5-lap tribute to the man. Nice gesture. By all accounts that I have read, he was a truly good guy. He started this season unemployed, came off the bench to win the Indy 500 and then went back to the unemployment line. He never lost his perspective, though, even amid the unfairness of being a champion on the circuit, both past and present, and still unable to find a job. He still promoted the heck out of IndyCar whenever he could; he became an ambassador for the sport that no one would give him a full-time ride in. He got the chance at the
Metcalfes Musings
racing. I am also sure he was worried about his two children even while trying to earn his living in a dangerous world. By all accounts, it shook other drivers up pretty good, even those not involved in that fiery crash. It took the national TV death of Dale Earnhardt Sr., to get NASCAR to look into ways to improve the safety of the sport. Well see what happens here. I also found these two items the other day: one, a Texas high school football coach died Tuesday after collapsing Sunday. The second was about a 16-year-old high school football player from Phoenix, New York, who died after collapsing during a game. In the first case, Timberview High School offensive coordinator Cody McCarty died at the age of

Lincolnview will play Ada at 6 p.m. Saturday back at Elida. ----Elida boys shut out Redskins in sectional soccer SHAWNEE Elidas Drew Laing stopped six Wapakoneta shots on-goal and the offense put three in the goal as the Bulldog boys eliminated the Redskins 3-0 in Division II sectional soccer action Wednesday at Shawnee High School. Scoring for the Bulldogs (4-11-2) were two from Jerod Houston and one from Riley Overholt. Wapak (8-8-1) outshot the Dawgs 7-6. Elida faces off with St. Marys Memorial 2 p.m. Saturday. ---Tournament soccer matches postponed The Kalida vs. Ottoville sectional soccer finals at Kalida scheduled for 7 p.m. this evening has been postponed until 5:30 p.m. Saturday. The boys soccer sectional final between Bluffton and Ada at Continental High School has been postponed until 2 p.m. Saturday. The sectional final between Continental and Liberty Center will still be played on Saturday but will begin at 4 p.m. -----Bluffton keeps shutout streak alive in 1-0 win over Spartans N O R T H MANCHESTER, Ind. The Bluffton University womens soccer team conquered the rain and the Spartans in a 1-0 shutout of Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference rival Manchester College on Wednesday. With the fifth straight blanking, the Lady Beavers have clinched their firstever winning season as well as the most victories by a
Bluffton womens soccer team. Bluffton improved to 9-3-1 overall and 4-2 in the HCAC with its schoolrecord eighth shutout of the season. Manchester slipped to 5-9-1 and 3-3 in the conference. Two days of rain made for sloppy field conditions and poor footing with neither team being able to find the back of the net during the first half of action. With just under 30 minutes to play, sophomore Jessica Ramirez (Archbold) connected with junior Maddie Moore (Linn Grove, Ind./South Adams) for the only goal of the contest. The Bluffton defense did the rest, completing its fifth consecutive shutout and eighth of the season. Bluffton fired away to the tune of a 16-8 advantage in shots, including 10-4 on frame. The home team committed three more fouls (11-8) and forced one more corner kick (3-2) than the Beavers. Moore finished with four shots, two on target, while sophomore Aimee Whitmer (Tontogany/Otsego) and

29. No official cause is yet available. He is the son of Mickey McCarty, who won a Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs in 1969 who suffered a stoke at 35, was a heart transplant recipient and then died of pancreatic cancer last year. The son followed the dad to TCU and played tight end from 2000-04. The second was involving 16-year-old Ridge Barden of John C. Birdlebough High School, who collapsed after an apparent helmet-to-helmet collision in a game Friday versus Homer High School. It was ruled by the Cortland County coroner that he suffered a massive subdural hematoma, a traumatic brain injury. Apparently, there had been no injury or condition that contributed to this death. Rest in peace. Did the Cincinnati Bengals make a good move trading Carson Palmer to the Raiders for a first-rounder in 2012 and a conditional second-rounder in 2013? The second-rounder can become a first-rounder in the Raiders make the AFC title game in the next two years. The spirit of Al Davis lives on in the Raiders camp. The Bengals must be sold on Andy Dalton as the quarterback of the present and future for owner Mike Brown to change his mind and make this deal when he steadfastly refused to do so before. I am no Raiders fan by any stretch of the imagination but this is a good trade for a franchise that needs to win now. It is still a risk: a quarterback that will have some selfimposed rust to work off and has not been the same due to injuries the last three years with the Bengals. Still, if he is even remotely what he was when he was leading the Bengals to at least be playoff contenders, it is worth the risk, especially with Jason Campbell done for at least six weeks and with Kyle Boller and Terrelle Pryor the backups. He is from California, so he is closer to home. The weather will be an improvement for him from the Queen City. Plus, Raiders coach Hue Jackson recruited him to and coached him at USC and later as an assistant with the Bengals. Now what will the Bengals do with two extra picks, at least one a first-rounder, in the next two drafts?

The really perplexing thing is that he works in an office with several other people, including his wife, who is also a physician. The nurses and receptionist all carry on conversations with him like everything is fine. I was beginning to think his breath odor was a figment of my imagination until I referred a colleague to him. After her appointment, she told me, He was really nice. Too bad his breath smells like something crawled into his mouth and died. I dont have the guts to tell him, and I cant understand

meaning family members who have returned home from time to time to collect clothes and other belongings may not go back inside until the search is over. It wasnt immediately clear whether the search would resume today. The Federal Aviation Administration established a no-fly zone over the search area effective until 5 p.m., agency spokesman Tony Molinaro said. He characterized the zone as a safety precaution and said it had been requested by law enforcement. Similar restrictions were introduced during a search of the area Tuesday. Much attention has focused on a rash of recent TV interviews the parents have given in which Bradley admitted she had consumed several glasses of wine the night that Lisa disappeared. She also told NBC that she did not see the baby after putting her to bed at about 6:40 p.m. roughly four hours earlier than the time she originally gave police. She didnt explain the difference. Tacopina has said Bradleys candid words indicate the parents have nothing to hide. Bradley has said she expects to be arrested in her babys disappearance.

PHILADELPHIA A mentally challenged man chained to a basement boiler. A disabled woman with her teeth knocked out. A malnourished niece with burn marks and pellet gun wounds. A two-year-old child the weight of an infant. These are the some of the victims emerging as police investigate a ring that allegedly took in the downtrodden and disabled for their Social Security checks, then held them captive in wretched conditions, without enough to eat or drink. The things that I have heard, the things that have been described, Im not sure that horrific covers it, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter said Wednesday. The four adult victims found locked in a Philadelphia crawl space on Saturday have the mental capacity of 10-year-olds. One said he had met accused ringleader Linda Ann Weston, 51, through an online dating site. Weston and three others, including her daughter, are charged with kidnapping, assault and other charges, with her bail set at $2.5 million. Its unclear how Weston met the other disabled adults found Saturday, one of whom may have borne several children in recent years. They were treated at a hospital and then moved to a social services agency. Eight children and four young adults linked to the defendants have since been taken into protective custody after they were found at various locations around the city. They include the 19-year-old niece, Beatrice Weston, who was left locked in a closet in recent days, according to police. Police took the unusual step of asking reporters Wednesday not to try to locate or interview her. I have never seen a victim whose injuries were any more severe than what I saw last night, Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey said. This girl was beaten, was tortured. It makes you want to cry when you see her. She may be the same niece who, according to neighbors, lived with Weston, co-defendant Gregory Thomas and the couples four children in northeast Philadelphia from about 2003 to 2005. Neighbors called police, and the citys child-protection agency, after hearing the adults scream and curse at the youngsters, whom they said could be found outside at 6 a.m. and late at night. They also thought they heard them being beaten. Nothing seemed to have been done, the neighbors said. After about two years, the family was forced out for unpaid rent, the neighbors said. The next tenant kept getting Social Security statements mailed to the house for Weston, Thomas, victim Tamara Breedon and others. She called the post office and the Social Security Administration. But the statements not the checks, which are often direct deposited didnt stop for years. Police went to the same address at one point to check on a report of a missing person involving another victim, Herbert Knowles. The current resident said she didnt know anyone by that name. There is no indication there was any follow-up by police. The defendants Thomas, 47; co-defendant Eddie the Rev. Ed Wright, 50; and Westons daughter, Jean McIntosh, 32 are scheduled to have their first court hearing on Monday. Westons lawyer has not returned calls for comment. Its not yet clear if the others have attorneys. Weston, along with a sister, were convicted of murder in the early 1980s after locking the sisters boyfriend in a closet for weeks until he died of starvation. McIntosh has a prior arrest for theft by deception, and securing a document by deception. Her teenage son and daughter were taken into protective custody on Wednesday, shortly after she became the fourth defendant arrested in the case.

OKLAHOMA CITY An Oklahoma judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked from taking effect a new law designed to reduce the number of abortions performed in the state by restricting the ways in which doctors can treat women with abortioninducing drugs. Oklahoma County District Judge Daniel Owens issued the ruling after a conference call with attorneys for both sides. The temporary injunction prevents the bill from going into effect on Nov. 1. Passed earlier this year by the GOP-controlled Legislature and signed by Gov. Mary Fallin, the measure requires doctors to follow the strict guidelines and protocols authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and prohibits off-label uses of the drugs. It also requires doctors to examine the women, document certain medical conditions and schedule follow-up appointments. Attorneys for Oklahoma contend that the drugs are dangerous and should be used only in strict accordance with FDA guidelines. To date, at least eight American women have died from mifepristone abortions, Assistant Attorney General Victoria Tindall wrote in the states response to the centers lawsuit. The dangerous risks of mifepristone demand strict adherence to the FDA-approved protocol. Attorney General Scott Pruitt said in a statement that the judges decision is unfortunate for the state and our public health, but it is not a surprise with new legislative provisions being tested.
