slave narratives library of america“He used to read prayers in public to the ship’s crew every sabbath day; and when first I saw him read, I was never so surprised in my whole life as when I saw the book talk to my master; for I thought it did, as I observed him to look upon it, and move his lips. — I wished it would do so to me. — As soon as my master had done reading I follow’d him to the place where he put the book, being mightily delighted with it, and when nobody saw me, I open’d it and put my ear down close upon it, in great hope that it would say something to me ; but was very sorry and greatly disappointed when I found it would not speak, this thought immediately presented itself to me, that every body and every thing despised me because I was black.”

–From the Slave Narrative of James Albert Ukawsaw Gronniosaw (1772).

joseph-bova-murder-trial♦ July 5: A pre-trial is scheduled at 1:30 p.m. before Circuit Judge Matthew Foxman in Courtroom 401 at the Flagler County Courthouse in the case of Joseph Bova II, the man accused of first-degree murder in the killing of Zuheily Roman Rosado in an execution-style shooting at the Mobil Mart on State Road 100 in Palm Coast in February 2013. Pre-trail hearings have been frequently continued, however. Bova has been held without bond at the Flagler County jail since May 11, 2015, when he returned from a state psychiatric hospital.

The Palm Coast City Council meets at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall in Town Center. Council members will recognize Palm Coast residents Dawn Petrillo and her daughter, Jamie Rhoads, who helped save a man trapped under his lawnmower on Fairbanks Lane on April 20. Council members are also expected to approve a contract for a transportation impact fee, a key step before changing those one-time rates levied on builders to anticipate the cost of new development’s impacts on roads.

Local News Recap:

Updated jail bookings and day and night shift incident summary reports are available here.

Palm Coast Offender Branded a Sexual Predator 5 Years After Prison, With No New Sex Crime: The Coppedge case illustrates the vagaries that can frame the case of a sexual offender—or, now, predator—long after he’s been released from prison, and how those vagaries, compounded with restrictions on where sex offenders may live and what strict reporting requirements they must live by, can eventually have the opposite effect of the state’s intended surveillance.

Father-Daughter Injured in Motorcycle Collision With U-Turning Car on Seminole Woods Blvd.: A man and his daughter riding a motorcycle north on Seminole Woods Boulevard were hospitalized early Friday afternoon after they collided with a car that was performing a U-turn on Seminole Woods Boulevard, and that had apparently not seen the motorcycle heading its way.

Attorney Joerg Jaeger, Who’d Been Defending Ex-Supervisor Kimberle Weeks, Dies at 68: Joerg Jaeger, the long-time Orlando criminal defense attorney who was representing former Flagler County Supervisor of Elections Kimberle Weeks in her criminal case, died on June 28. Jeffrey Ashton, the State Attorney for the 9th Judicial Circuit–where Jaeger had once been a prosecutor–announced Jaeger’s death on his Facebook page Thursday.

Cypress Knolls Golf Course Future Still in Doubt: “It’s not the British Open, but the winds foretelling the future of the Cypress Knolls Golf Course in Palm Coast are brisk and shifting on a daily basis. In the most recent wind shift, Firinn Golf Group (Doreen Holl and Chris McLaren), operators of Pine Lakes Golf Course, have backed away from a deal that would have put the Cypress Knolls Golf Course under their ownership and control,” GoToby reports.

Clinton outraises Trump in Volusia-Flagler, But Neither Raking It In Locally: According to thre News-Journal, “the Clinton machine collected more than $32,000 from more than 200 donations, including seven who gave the maximum $2,700. Trump, by stark contrast, collected just two checks from Volusia residents in April for $750. And none of the historically max donors of Volusia and Flagler have showed up among either Trump or Clinton’s donor lists.” (Story paywall-protected.)
