Woman arrested for man’s murder
On Monday, April 8, 2019, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) was requested by the Dodge County Sheriff’s Office to assist with a death investigation that occurred earlier on this date at 38 Indigo Lane in Eastman.
A 911 call was received at approximately 12:23 p.m. after family members returned home and found Gary Peacock, age 62, deceased inside the residence.
Cassi Roosa, age 24, was arrested for the murder of Peacock. Roosa resided at the residence with Peacock’s step-son.
Roosa has been charged with one count of malice murder, one count of felony murder and one count of aggravated assault. Roosa is being held at the Dodge County Law Enforcement Center.
An autopsy will be performed by the GBI Medical Examiner’s Office.
If anyone has information about this case, please contact the GBI Eastman office at 478-374-6988 or Dodge County Sheriff’s Office at 478-374-8131.
At the time of the murder, the Eastman Police Department was actively seeking to find Roosa in connection to a domestic dispute that occurred on Sunday, April 7. That incident involved the beating of a 58 year old female with a lamp at 5740 Main Street.
At the time of the murder on Monday, April 8, the Eastman Police Department was waiting on deputies (because the address was in the county and not in the city) to go with them to 38 Indigo Lane where it was believed Roosa may be.
Deputies were currently tied up with a fatality wreck on the Cochran Highway.

Dear editor,
During the week of April 21-27 2019 the City of Eastman will join other cities across Georgia in celebrating Georgia Cities Week. This week has been set aside to recognize the many services city governments provide and their contribution to a better quality of life in Georgia. Our theme, “Georgia Cities: True Colors” reflects the unique character of cities and the role they play in the state’s history, economy and culture.
City government is truly government of, by and for the people – the people who are making the decisions about our community are your neighbors, business owners and community leaders. We are in this together, and we want our city to thrive.
The value cities bring to our state is undisputed. Georgia’s cities make up just 9.2 percent of Georgia’s Land area, but 68 percent of jobs are located within cities. Cities are home to more than 43 percent of the state’s population, 65 percent of the commercial property and 50 percent of the industrial property.
We recognize that throughout our lifetimes, the average person will have more direct contact with local governments than with state or federal governments. Because of this, we feel a responsibility to ensure that the public knows how the city operates and feels connected to their city government.
During this week, we want to recognize the role city government plays in our lives: from historic preservation to trash collection to public safety to promoting the area’s culture and recreation. We hope you will join us in this celebration and learn more about your city and how it operates for you.
The city will be hosting a variety of events during the week of April 21-27. A list of events, time and locations will be published in an up-coming edition of this paper.
Sincerely,
Jason Cobb
City Manager

Dear editor,
Hitting a pothole can adversely affect a vehicle’s handling and performance. It can be difficult to know if and to what extent your car has been damaged, so the Car Care Council urges motorists to watch for three warning signs to help determine if hitting a pothole has damaged their vehicle.
Loss of control, swaying when making routine turns, bottoming out on city streets or bouncing excessively on rough roads are indicators that the steering and suspension may have been damaged. The steering and suspension are key safety-related systems. Together, they largely determine a vehicle’s ride and handling.
Pulling in one direction, instead of maintaining a straight path, and uneven tire wear, are symptoms of an alignment problem. Proper wheel alignment is important for the lifespan of tires and helps ensure safe handling.
Low tire pressure, bulges or blisters on the sidewalls, or dents in the wheel rim will be visible and should be checked out as soon as possible, as tires are the critical connection between the vehicle and the road.
Because hitting a pothole with your car can do a real number on tires, wheels, steering and suspension, and alignment, it is a good idea to describe the symptoms to a professional technician who can then check out the vehicle and make the necessary repairs to ensure safety and reliability.
Sincerely,
Rich White

B.H. Obama lied
Obamacare was sold as an economic boost to America, keep your doctor, save money. B.H. Obama lied, no celebrity or media leftist complained about the scam, even though socialized medicine has never worked anywhere. If not for John McCain, we would be rid of it today.
Government medical systems don’t work. Obama proved that politicians try to get everyone under government control for votes.
“There are lies Hollywood loves and lies that it will expose. They loved Obama’s lies.”
Laura Ingraham 9-21-17
Goofy Jerry Brown, finally retired governor of California (good!), called Trump supporters “cave dwellers.” We need a new pro-Trump group: Cave Dwellers for Trump. Count me in.
“The football field is now a minefield of social justice causes where National Football League officials countenance Black Power salutes, but ban pro-police decals on helmets after cop ambushes.”
Michelle Malkin on VDare.com
Medicaid isn’t supposed to be a way of life, a permanent fixture. It’s supposed to be for a limited amount of time.
“If you’re okay setting fire to the American flag I hope you’re also setting fire to your American taxpayer-funded welfare check.”

What keeps witch-hunting Robert Mueller and company in business: We have “large numbers of vigilant inquisitors roaming the countryside.”

Russ's Sports Review
I know we are a couple of games into the regular season, but I have decided to do my fearless predictions for the 2019 season. Okay, here we go. Let’s start with the National League East. I have heard from several of you about why am I so tough on the Braves. I don’t like the make-up of this team. Injuries to four key pitchers could be a huge knock to this team. Shockingly, they could still correct the rotation and the bullpen.
Unfortunately, I do not believe either will happen. Yes, I think the Braves will finish fourth. I hope I am wrong. I have debated with myself about who I like in the East. I guess I will take the Nationals by just a little. If they can hit enough, they have plenty of pitching lead by Max Scherzer and free agent Patrick Corbin. Soto and company should be able to do enough. If the Mets pitchers stay healthy, they will be a factor.
The National League Central looks like it will be a three-team battle as well. The Cardinals, Cubs and Brewers should all be close. I think the pressure is really on the Cubs to win. The rotation led by Darvish, Hamels and Lester will have to come through. I like them over the Brewers by just a little. Don’t ever count out the Cardinals though. The National League West is a two-team race I think. It should come down to the Dodgers and the Rockies If you go by talent, I like the Dodgers, but health could play a huge role.
Kershaw and Rich Hill both started the season on the injured list. They should be ready soon but there is a question of how long they will hold out. They may have to lean on their offense early in the season. The Rockies will lean on Arenado, Story and the strong offense. I will take the Dodgers. It may be close but they are the better team. The Padres and Giants will both be better but not strong enough.
The American League East has long been considered the strongest division in baseball. I will take the Yankees over the world champion Red Sox. The Yankees helped the rotation as they picked up James Paxton from Seattle. They also have Tanaka, Severino and Happ. Judge, Stanton and Torres lead a loaded line up. The Sox will be good with Betts, Bogaerts and Martinez in a strong offense. The rotation is good with Price and Sale. The bullpen has lost Kimbrel and they may struggle. The second place team should be the wild card. Don’t count on CY Young award winner Blake Snell and the Rays. They should be the favorite for the second wild card.
The American League Central should go to the Indians. They are strong in the rotation with Kluber and Bauer. The Twins may challenge them but I don’t think that they can hang with the Indians.
The American League West should belong to the Astros. The dynamic duo of Verlander and Cole lead a strong rotation. The offense should be really good with Correa, Springer, Bregman and Altuve. I guess Oakland has a shot but Houston should be a huge favorite. They could use one more starting pitcher but I like their chances. The Angels and Trout could be spoilers but not enough firepower to contend. We will take a look back at these picks in September.
Let’s wrap up things with a college softball report. On Wednesday, Middle Georgia’s Lady Knights and former Dodge County Lady Indian Margaret Simmons hosted Georgia Southwestern. It was a big day for Simmons, a sophomore shortstop. She went three for six with four runs scored and a long homer in the double-header sweep in three to one and five to one wins. The Lady Knights are 20-10 on the year.

It is not often that a team can get outhit 20-10, have three men thrown out on the base paths, commit five errors and still win a baseball game, but that is just what Dodge did against Telfair on March 25. Dodge won a seesaw battle. The difference in the game was the ability of the Dodge pitching staff to throw strikes. Dodge did not issue a single walk. Telfair handed out ten free passes.
With only two varsity games this week and no region games, Dodge was able to use three pitchers without having to worry about available arms. Andrew Lowery was the first to take the mound.
Telfair came out swinging. Jalen Clemons led off with a bunt single. Cameo Blankenship reached on an error, and the runners moved up on a wild pitch. Trey Bess grounded out to third scoring Clemons. Jared Dopson drove in Blankenship with a base hit up the middle. After giving up another hit to Tre Blankenship, Lowery settled down to retire the next two batters.
Dodge wasted no time taking the lead in the bottom of the first. Brendan O’Connor and Brodie Woodard walked. Kaden Burse reached on an error to load the bases. DJ Bursch then hit a Grand Slam over the fence in left center to give Dodge a 4-2 lead.
Lowery retired the first two batters in the top of the second, but then Telfair came roaring back. Clemons singled. Cameo Blankenship doubled. Trey Bess drove in two runs with a double. Dodge turned a hard hit ground ball by Dopson into a three base error scoring Bess. Tre Blankenship followed with a base hit driving in Dopson for a 6-4 Telfair lead.
Dodge tied it in the bottom of the second. O’Connor led off with a walk. Garrett Durden laid down a sacrifice bunt. Woodard singled plating O’Connor. Burse had a base hit to move Woodard to third. Burse attempted to get in a rundown to score Woodard from third. The pitcher would not bite, and Burse moved up to second on the play. Woodard then broke for home just before the left handed pitcher started his motion. The pitch beat Woodard to the plate, but he slid in under the tag for the steal of home. The score was tied 6-6.
Telfair regained the lead in the third. Landin Crummey came into relieve Lowery. Jude King led off with a bunt single. He stole second and went to third on a wild pitch. Crummey struck out the next two batters before allowing a base hit to Cameo Blankenship scoring King. Telfair led 7-6.
The Telfair lead was short lived. O’Connor legged out a double. Durden followed that up with a single, but O’Connor fell coming around third and had to retreat. Woodard hit a sacrifice fly to center driving in O’Connor and tying the game at 7-7.
Telfair continued to score in the fourth. Dopson reached on an error. Tre Blankenship doubled. Noah Harrelson grounded out to score Dopson and give Telfair an 8-7 lead.
Dodge was held scoreless in the bottom of the fourth, and it looked like Telfair would pull away. Woodard came in to relieve Crummey, and Telfair continued to pound the baseball. Clemons and Cameo Blankenship singled. Bess doubled home Clemons. Dopson grounded out scoring Blankenship. Tre Blankenship had an infield hit to score Bess giving Telfair a 10-7 lead.
Dodge battled back in the bottom of the fifth. Seth Cossett came in as a pinch hitter and was hit by a pitch. Parker Hardin walked. Timmy Johnson came in as a courtesy runner for Hardin. O’Connor doubled scoring Cossett. Durden doubled scoring Johnson and O’Connor tying it again at 10-10.
Telfair continued to score runs in the sixth. King singled and stole second. He moved to third on a passed ball. Clemons drove in King with an infield hit. Cameo Blankenship reached on an error allowing Clemons to score and giving Telfair a 12-10 lead.
Dodge came back in the bottom of the sixth. Bursch was hit by a pitch, and Crummey reached on an error. However, Bursch was then picked off at second. Noah Mincey delivered a base hit to center. Cossett walked to load the bases. Hardin was hit by a pitch scoring Crummey. Johnson entered as a courtesy runner for Hardin. O’Connor reached on an error allowing Mincey and Cossett to score. Durden singled plating Johnson and giving Dodge a 14-12 lead.
Telfair would add a run in the seventh on back to back doubles by Tre Blankenship and Landin Connell, but Dodge would hang on for the 14-13 win.
Leading hitters for Dodge were as follows: O’Connor was 2 for 3 with two doubles, two walks, two RBI and three runs scored. Garrett Durden was 3 for 4 with a double and three RBI. Brodie Woodard was 1 for 3 with two RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base. Kaden Burse was 1 for 3 with a run scored. DJ Bursch was 1 for 2 with a Grand Slam, a walk, a hit batsman, four RBI and one run scored. Noah Mincey was 1 for 3 with a walk and one run scored.
On March 28, Dodge defeated the visiting Treutlen County Vikings by a score of 10-1. Parker Gay started on the mound for Dodge and got the win going four innings surrendering one run on three hits while walking three and striking out three. Landin Crummey pitched the final three scoreless innings surrendering only one hit and no walks. Crummey struck out four batters.
Dodge took a 3-0 lead in the first. Garrett Durden doubled. Brodie Woodard reached on an error allowing Durden to score. Kaden Burse reached on an error. DJ Bursch walked. Andrew Lowery grounded into a fielder’s choice to erase Bursch, but Woodard scored in the process. Lowery then got into an intentional rundown, which allowed Burse to score from third.
Dodge would blow it open in the third. With Dodge leading 3-1, Woodard led off with a walk. Burse reached on an error. Woodard was erased when Bursch hit into a fielder’s choice. Lowery walked loading the bases. Noah Mincey hit a sacrifice fly scoring Burse. Crummey reached on an error allowing Bursch to score. Parker Hardin reached on catcher’s interference loading the bases. Timmy Johnson entered as a courtesy runner for Hardin. Lowery scored on a wild pitch. O’Connor singled plating Crummey and Johnson giving Dodge an 8-1 lead.
Dodge added a run in the fifth when Lowery led off with a single. Crummey had a base hit. Lowery tagged and advanced on a fly out to center by Hardin. O’Connor reached on an error allowing Lowery to score making it 9-1 Dodge.
Dodge added a final run in the sixth when Burse reached on an error. Johnson entered as a pinch runner for Burse and moved to third on a wild pitch. After a short sun delay, Lowery tripled scoring Johnson for the 10-1 win.
Leading hitters for Dodge were as follows: Garrett Durden was 1 for 4 with a double and a run scored. Brendan O’Connor was 1 for 4 with two RBI. Andrew Lowery was 2 for 3 with a triple, a walk, two RBI and two runs scored.
Dodge improves to 9-6. The Indians were scheduled to host Rutland High (5-12) on April 1 and travel to East Laurens (8-9) on April 2nd, but results of those games were unavailable at press time. Dodge will host East Laurens on April 5. We should learn a lot about Dodge’s playoff prospects after these two games against East Laurens.

Dodge’s Junior Varsity (JV) got their offense on track this week in a big way. Dodge scored fifty-four runs in four games winning three and losing one.

Dodge County High School (DCHS) Squaws Head Basketball Coach, CaSandra Walker Hamilton, was recently named the 2019 Region 3AA Girls’ Coach of the Year.
Coach Hamilton has received this honor for the second year in a row. She has been head coach of the Squaws for the past three seasons and has led her team to Region 3AA Championship games three years in a row, winning the championship for the past two seasons.
Coach Hamilton has also led the Squaws to the state playoffs all three years. Her teams have won 25 games each of the past three seasons for an overall record of 75-12 in three seasons.
It is not often that a team can get outhit 20-10, have three men thrown out on the base paths, commit five errors and still win a baseball game, but that is just what Dodge did against Telfair on March 25. Dodge won a seesaw battle. The difference in the game was the ability of the Dodge pitching staff to throw strikes. Dodge did not issue a single walk. Telfair handed out ten free passes.
With only two varsity games this week and no region games, Dodge was able to use three pitchers without having to worry about available arms. Andrew Lowery was the first to take the mound.
Telfair came out swinging. Jalen Clemons led off with a bunt single. Cameo Blankenship reached on an error, and the runners moved up on a wild pitch. Trey Bess grounded out to third scoring Clemons. Jared Dopson drove in Blankenship with a base hit up the middle. After giving up another hit to Tre Blankenship, Lowery settled down to retire the next two batters.
Dodge wasted no time taking the lead in the bottom of the first. Brendan O’Connor and Brodie Woodard walked. Kaden Burse reached on an error to load the bases. DJ Bursch then hit a Grand Slam over the fence in left center to give Dodge a 4-2 lead.
Lowery retired the first two batters in the top of the second, but then Telfair came roaring back. Clemons singled. Cameo Blankenship doubled. Trey Bess drove in two runs with a double. Dodge turned a hard hit ground ball by Dopson into a three base error scoring Bess. Tre Blankenship followed with a base hit driving in Dopson for a 6-4 Telfair lead.
Dodge tied it in the bottom of the second. O’Connor led off with a walk. Garrett Durden laid down a sacrifice bunt. Woodard singled plating O’Connor. Burse had a base hit to move Woodard to third. Burse attempted to get in a rundown to score Woodard from third. The pitcher would not bite, and Burse moved up to second on the play. Woodard then broke for home just before the left handed pitcher started his motion. The pitch beat Woodard to the plate, but he slid in under the tag for the steal of home. The score was tied 6-6.
Telfair regained the lead in the third. Landin Crummey came into relieve Lowery. Jude King led off with a bunt single. He stole second and went to third on a wild pitch. Crummey struck out the next two batters before allowing a base hit to Cameo Blankenship scoring King. Telfair led 7-6.
The Telfair lead was short lived. O’Connor legged out a double. Durden followed that up with a single, but O’Connor fell coming around third and had to retreat. Woodard hit a sacrifice fly to center driving in O’Connor and tying the game at 7-7.
Telfair continued to score in the fourth. Dopson reached on an error. Tre Blankenship doubled. Noah Harrelson grounded out to score Dopson and give Telfair an 8-7 lead.
Dodge was held scoreless in the bottom of the fourth, and it looked like Telfair would pull away. Woodard came in to relieve Crummey, and Telfair continued to pound the baseball. Clemons and Cameo Blankenship singled. Bess doubled home Clemons. Dopson grounded out scoring Blankenship. Tre Blankenship had an infield hit to score Bess giving Telfair a 10-7 lead.
Dodge battled back in the bottom of the fifth. Seth Cossett came in as a pinch hitter and was hit by a pitch. Parker Hardin walked. Timmy Johnson came in as a courtesy runner for Hardin. O’Connor doubled scoring Cossett. Durden doubled scoring Johnson and O’Connor tying it again at 10-10.
Telfair continued to score runs in the sixth. King singled and stole second. He moved to third on a passed ball. Clemons drove in King with an infield hit. Cameo Blankenship reached on an error allowing Clemons to score and giving Telfair a 12-10 lead.
Dodge came back in the bottom of the sixth. Bursch was hit by a pitch, and Crummey reached on an error. However, Bursch was then picked off at second. Noah Mincey delivered a base hit to center. Cossett walked to load the bases. Hardin was hit by a pitch scoring Crummey. Johnson entered as a courtesy runner for Hardin. O’Connor reached on an error allowing Mincey and Cossett to score. Durden singled plating Johnson and giving Dodge a 14-12 lead.
Telfair would add a run in the seventh on back to back doubles by Tre Blankenship and Landin Connell, but Dodge would hang on for the 14-13 win.
Leading hitters for Dodge were as follows: O’Connor was 2 for 3 with two doubles, two walks, two RBI and three runs scored. Garrett Durden was 3 for 4 with a double and three RBI. Brodie Woodard was 1 for 3 with two RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base. Kaden Burse was 1 for 3 with a run scored.

On March 28, Dodge defeated the visiting Treutlen County Vikings by a score of 10-1. Parker Gay started on the mound for Dodge and got the win going four innings surrendering one run on three hits while walking three and striking out three. Landin Crummey pitched the final three scoreless innings surrendering only one hit and no walks. Crummey struck out four batters.
Dodge took a 3-0 lead in the first. Garrett Durden doubled. Brodie Woodard reached on an error allowing Durden to score. Kaden Burse reached on an error. DJ Bursch walked. Andrew Lowery grounded into a fielder’s choice to erase Bursch, but Woodard scored in the process. Lowery then got into an intentional rundown, which allowed Burse to score from third.
Dodge would blow it open in the third. With Dodge leading 3-1, Woodard led off with a walk. Burse reached on an error. Woodard was erased when Bursch hit into a fielder’s choice. Lowery walked loading the bases. Noah Mincey hit a sacrifice fly scoring Burse. Crummey reached on an error allowing Bursch to score. Parker Hardin reached on catcher’s interference loading the bases. Timmy Johnson entered as a courtesy runner for Hardin. Lowery scored on a wild pitch. O’Connor singled plating Crummey and Johnson giving Dodge an 8-1 lead.

Dodge added a final run in the sixth when Burse reached on an error. Johnson entered as a pinch runner for Burse and moved to third on a wild pitch. After a short sun delay, Lowery tripled scoring Johnson for the 10-1 win.
Leading hitters for Dodge were as follows: Garrett Durden was 1 for 4 with a double and a run scored. Brendan O’Connor was 1 for 4 with two RBI. Andrew Lowery was 2 for 3 with a triple, a walk, two RBI and two runs scored.

Dodge will host East Laurens on April 5. We should learn a lot about Dodge’s playoff prospects after these two games against East Laurens.

FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
The Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) received an application in January 2019 for the award of federal HOME funding for the development of this project. DCA has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required.
Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) prepared by DCA. This ERR is on file at DCA at 60 Executive Park South, N.E. Atlanta, GA 30329 by appointment only and may be examined or copied weekdays from 8:30 A.M. to 5:00 P.M.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Any individual, group, or agency wishing to comment on the project or ERR may submit written comments to Laurel Hart, from March 27, 2019 to April 14, 2019. All comments must be received by within the fifteen (15) day comment period.
RELEASE OF FUNDS
DCA certifies to the HUD that Laurel Hart in her capacity as Acting Chief Executive Officer consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The HUD approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities, and allows DCA to use Program funds.
OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS
Following its receipt of DCA’s request for release of funds, HUD will accept objections to the release of funds or DCA certification for a period of fifteen days only if the objections are made
on one of the following bases:
(a) The certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of DCA;
(b) DCA has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58;
(c) The grant recipient or other participants in the development process has committed funds, incurred costs, or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by the HUD; or
(d) Another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality.
Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures
(24 CFR Part 58) and shall be addressed to Environmental Objections, care of
