Lotto luck runs
high in Castlegar

For the second time in less than
a month, Pharmasave in down
town Castlegar has dispensed a
winning lotteryticket—this time
to an employee of Cravings, a
bakery/sandwich shop just three
doors down the street

After purchasing two Goldrush
tickets at Pharmasave, Linda
Daviau scratched them both while
at work. It wasn't long before she
realizgd she had won $10,000
“We both started screaming,” said
Daviau, “Then I got a headache!”

Daviau, who has said she has
never won, anything of this thag
nitude before, plans to bank most
of-the money-——after she buys
herself a new vacuum cleaner and
takes her 17-year-old daughter
shopping.

Daviau's prize comes right on
the heels of a $15,000 win by
Shirley Sherstobitoff, who won
the top prize of the lottery game
called Snow Bank. Sherstibitoff is
a student and on-call cafeteria
worker at Selkirk College

current social, economic and even cultural conditions of his country. Vashenko, who will be in Castlegar for three
months, is teaching two credit courses at the college. ~SUN STAFF PHOTO / Sharlene Imhott

Moore said the documents she
has read reaffirm her belief that this

The Castlegar Sun

SUN STAFF PHOTO.

Old Man Winter did his best to halt almost every activity in Castlegar during a heavy snowstorm last week which
resulted in as much as 30 centimeters of snow falling in the area in one day. Combined with an already massive
amount of snow, the result was havoc in and around the city as people dug themselves out of the white stuff. If
the resident living at the corner of 7th Avenue was able to get this vehicle out of its wintry confines—it would be
nothing short of a major accomplishment.

Patrick Hickey has been
upgraded from ‘serious’ to ‘seri
ous and improving’ at Spokane 's
Sacred Heart Medical centre,
said Pat Servine, a public rela-
tions officer for the centre

Hickey, 25, received multiple
injuries a motor vehicle acci-
dent which required the Jaws of
Life to free him

The accident occurred Jan. 3
on Highway 22 near Fairview
when Hickey's vehicle, a Honda
car, was struck head-on by a
truck driven by a 35-year-old
Genelle man.

Hickey had originally been
transported to Trail Regional
Hospital after the accident, but
was transported Jan. 4 to
Spokane by.a helicopter which
had been chartered by Hickey’s
employer, Kamyr Construction.
Hickey had been admitted to
Sacred Heart Medical Centre in
critical condition. Hickey’s pas-
senger, and fiance, Sonny
Straughan, and the driver of the
other vehicle had both been

transported to Castlegar and Dis-

Nelson's Chief of Police says a
local man with a long criminal
record and a history of violent
sex offences got too short a sen-
tence after pleading guilty earlier
this month to raping a 58-year-
old Abbotsford woman.

Steven Harley, 31, was
charged with aggravated sexual
assault and choking but pleaded
guilty to just sexual assault earli-
er this month in B.C. Supreme

Court in New Westminster. He

was sentenced to four years. Sex-
ual assault carries a maximum
sentence of ten years,

Harley will be eligible for
parole in sixteen months

“I'm extremely upset about
the shortness of the sentence,”
said Brock who has taken his
concerns to the Nelson Police
Board. “The public has reason to
be disappointed in a sentence of
this nature.”

According to-Brock, when
Harley returned to Nelson last
year after serving a four year sen-
tence for assaulting and robbing a
woman in a local sports club
changeroom, the town went on
anxious alert

“When Harley was here last
year there was a dramatic effect
on the community,” said Brock
whose office phone kept ringing
with calls from frightened resi-
dents. “People drove their chil-
dren to school, women would not
go out alone. I don’t think any of
those fears were unfounded.”

When Harley cornered and
hunged at some young women at a
high school dance last January he
was arrested and charged with com-
mon assault. Crown counsel Dana
Urban was so concerned for the
safety of the young witnesses he
received a court order to allow them
to be hooded. at the trial-so-Harley
could not identify them. Harley
pleaded guilty before the trial and

That sentence was a short ‘part
of a long list of time spent in jail
for Harley who has forty criminal
convictions including parole vio-
lations, breaking and entering,
armed robbery and two violent
rapes. One of these rapes
occurred here in a Nelson church-
yard in 1982

At the common assault sen-
tencing here in Nelson last year
parts of Harley's psychiatric
report were read tq the court
describing him_as_sexually—dis-
turbed and “a very serious risk to
the public”.

to Harley's possible return to
Nelson. “I don't want to see
Harley back in the community,”
ste said. The police chief added
he believes the community
should do what it can to ensure
Harley serves his full term.
Speaking at a recent hearing of
the Policing in British Columbia
Commission of Inquiry Brock
expressed frustration at the return
of repeat sex offenders into the
community. He also said the,
“eontinuing-alarming-rate-of s¢x=
ual assault in the community,”
was one of his greatest concerns.
