According to official reports from the Marion County Sheriffs Department, Terrell was arrested for resisting arrest, but later transferred to Wishard Hospital for psychological evaluation. “We wanted him to get the help he needed, that’s why we Transferred him to the hospital first instead of juvenile,” said Lt. Bob Hendrickson of the Marion County Sheriffs Department. . Hendrickson said the deputies had little physical contact >vith Terrell, and the ^department's report of the incident asserted that Adkisson •actually wanted the police for Sielp in restraining his s6n, Iwhom deputies said w as fighting, cussing and being disobeIdient. ' “Deputy Toney and Deputy Kistner struggled with Terrell,

taking him to the ground and getting him handcuffed, where Terrell continued to try and kick at deputy Toney” it said. “We never maced him, which we could have done," Hendrickson stated. “All we did was place him in handcuffs for his safety and ours. When he eontimfed to be belligerent, he was placed on the ground where he continued to flip and flop like a fish.” Lt. Phil Burton, public relations officer for the sheriffs department, added, “Based on our internal affairs investigation, where was no excessive forced used. The deputies did everything according to our rules and regulations. We even interviewed several witnesses at the hospital who said Mr. Adkisson had thrown his own son to the ground in an effort to subdue him before the deputies arrived.” Security and safety officials from St. Vincent Hospital had no comment on the situation. In 1999 Adkisson won a similar settlement against the department for an undisclosed amount after an incident involving he and his wife, Stastina.

Camp Healing Tree provides support for grieving you I’ll

Special to Tha Recorder Camp Healing Tree, a weekend camp for grieving youth ages 7 through 17, will be Aug. 22-24 at Jameson Camp, 2001 S. Bridgeport Road. The camp provides an opportunity for young people to share feelings of loss with other campers and caring adult volunteers and to learn that these feelings are normal. Camp Healing Tree, established in 1995, is coordinated annually by several local hospice agencies. Grief and bereavement specialists from each of the participating hospices direct and supervise the camp. More than 200 screened and trained volunteers provide a safe environment where participants may speak openly about their grief. Campers will be matched with a trained adult “buddy” who will stay with them during the weekend for support

and supervision. The camp provides a supportive environment in which to gently teach coping skills and build selfesteem and trust. Although the camp focuses on grief, campers participate in many fun activities, such as swimming, arts and crafts, games, campfire sing-alongs and entertaining shows. While the camp environment is rustic, the cabins are modern and air-conditioned. A registered nurse will be at the camp at all times. The camp begins at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 22, and concludes with a memorial service for campers and their families at 11 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 24. There is no charge to attend Camp HealingTree. However, a refundable registration deposit of $25 per camper (maximum of $50 per family) is required and is returned upon check-in. A one-day adult support program is offered on Satur-

day, Aug. 23, for parents and guardians who have a youth attending the camp. Participants will receive support for their own grief, learn about parenting a grieving young person, and learn appropriate self-care and coping techniques. Registration for the adult program is limited and can be completed when a camper is registered. No additional child care is available during this adult program for children who are not attending Camp Healing Tree. Camp Healing Tree is sponsored by Community VNA Hospice, Heartland Hospice, Hospice Preferred Choice, The Ruth Lilly Hospice of Clarian, St. Francis Hospice, St. Vincent Hospice and VistaCare. For more information or register a youth for Camp Healing Tree, call (317) 388CAMP (388-2267). Space is limited to the first 85 campers.

ELECTRONIC ► Continued from Page 1 Scott McCook “Generally there’s a victim in the case and that s why we set up the exclusionary zones. The zones McCool is referring to are areas that the alleged victim frequents such as work, school or home Anytime the GPS gets within a certain range of an exclusionary zone, it goes off and alerts the offender that he needs to vacate the area. According to McCook the offender only has “acoupleofminutes" to vacate One of the 25 men currently involved in Marion County’s GPS program, that well call Adam for the sake of privacy, disagrees with the amountoftimehe’sexpected to leave an exclusionary zone “First of aU, we don’t even know where the zones are. Some people could be vindictive and try to establish a zone in an area they know an offender frequents,” he said in a exasperated tone. “And what happens ifl happen to catch a flat? I guess I’m expected to have it fixed in two-to-three minutes.” The primary purpose of the special system is to make certain that offenders don’t cause any harm to the victim. Ahhou^i it can be somevdiat confining to the offender, McCool says that since many use the system as a pre-trial measure, it may actually help their case. “If the victim constantly calls us andsaysthisguyisaroundme,please lock him up,’ then well say ^10 he wasn’t, he was on the other side of town.’” Adam who has used GPS for several months now says he’s frustrated with the entire program. “I had a warrant because my GPS was malfunctioning. Authorities came to my home and arrested me, although I never even knew that something was wrong with my system.” In addition, Adam says he had to pay the $12 a day for the system while he was locked up. Yet, McCool states the opposite. “If they gp to jafi, we inactivate them from the program and they're no longer responsible for payments for towards use.” Upon The Recorder's investigation, Adam did produce receipts for payment during the time he was incarcerated. With the Portable Tracking Device costing nearly $3,000, Marion County Community Corrections holds offenders responsible if the equipment is lost or damaged. “We charge them with either criminal mischiefor we ask the court for civil judgement on the equipment” Despite naysayers, McCool, who has been working with the department since last October, says overall GPS is a good program. “It eases the overcrowding that we have in the jail right now, and it helps them. I’m sure they’d rather be home than in jaij. (And) it protects the victim. We haven’t had any serious incidents.” Formoreinformationon theGiobal Position System, call (317) 6332804.
