An Atascadero arborist
who ran unsuccessfully for
mayor in 2014 struck a
plea deal with prosecutors

in several criminal cases

Tuesday that could allow
him to avoid prison if
he stays out of trouble.
Should he re-offend
within five years, Charles
Scovell could spend up to
14 years in state prison.

Scovell,
37, pleaded
no contest
to two
charges of
felony assault with a
Charles
deadly
Scovell
weapon in
two cases
against him in San Luis
Obispo Superior Court. He
received five years of
felony probation, and
several other charges were
dismissed.
Following the plea, he
was released from County
Jail, where he had been

held since January. He

must remain in a sober
living facility until a July
28 progress hearing, Assistant District Attorney
Lee Cunningham said
Thursday.
Scovell was facing DUI
and hit-and-run charges
for a March 2015 incident,
in which he allegedly
crashed his vehicle into a
fence and a tree in Atascadero, injuring his passenger. During that case,
he was again arrested Jan.
15 after a four-hour standoff with officers outside
his home.

Tuesday is Primary
Election Day here in
California.
So far this year, weve
endured obnoxious political ads and tasteless talk.
But weve seen nothing
like the violence and tragedies that cursed our 1968
election year, including
the assassination of presidential candidate Robert
Kennedy.
Then, I was news director for KPRL radio in Paso
Robles. News director
just meant I was the stations only full-time reporter. But on election
nights, I actually had
people to direct. Back
then, the votes were
counted at the polling
places. So most of KPRLs
employees, their spouses
and big kids were enlisted
to visit the polling places
and get the voting results.
There was no electronic
voting. The voting machines were basically tall
adding machines. To vote,
you flipped a little lever
next to a candidates
name or next to a ballot
measure.
When the polls closed,
election workers unlocked
the faces of the voting
machines and slid them
slightly to reveal the totals. Our rookie reporters
copied the totals and telephoned them back to the
station.
As for the far-flung rural
precincts, we made arrangements with their
election officials to telephone their results to us.
We also exchanged election results with the
Atascadero News.

According to the
Atascadero Police
Department, officers
responded to a report that
someone was throwing
beer bottles and assaulting a woman outside.
When officers arrived to
the home on the
1500 block of El Camino
Real, Scovell ran inside
leaving the alleged victim
on the ground and refused to come out.
Officers set up a perimeter around the home
when the woman told
police that Scovell might
be armed. Eventually,
Scovells attorney, Ilan
Funke-Bilu, went to the
scene and persuaded his
client to come out.
Scovell originally pleaded not guilty to charges
including assault with a

Cal Polys Center for

Innovation &
Entrepreneurship has
accepted eight startup
companies into this years
SLO HotHouse Summer
Accelerator program.
The intensive, 13-week
program is designed for
students and recent graduates to help develop new

ventures.
The program provides
$10,000 in seed money,
hands-on strategic business guidance from faculty and mentors and dedicated office space during
the summer at SLO HotHouse. Companies receive
training, introductions to
investors and other resources. At the end of the
program, they will have an
opportunity to pitch their
ideas to investors during

Demo
Day.
The
new
startups
represent a
variety of concepts, including virtual reality,
devices that aid in preventing sexual assaults,
environmentally friendly
transportation and smart
irrigation technology for
growing wine grapes.
More than 25 applicants
representing disciplines
from across campus competed for a spot in the
sixth annual accelerator
program. Twelve final
teams presented their
ideas to a panel of judges.

Our Accelerator is
designed to attract and
produce early-stage startups and rapidly increase

The same year Lindbergh flew across the

Atlantic, this boat went
into the water, he said.
During World War II,
the Alma towed targets
for the U.S. Army and
Navy. The tugboat also
rescued the crew of an oil
tanker torpedoed by a
Japanese submarine near
the Cambria coast, Newland said.
The Alma was eventually retired and given to
the museum association
as a donation, Newland
said. Volunteers restored
the Alma using funds
from the Hind Foundation
and the Morro Bay Harbor
Festival. The tugboat,
along with the submarine,
will be moved to permanent display platforms at
the museum associations
new location.
The city helped the
association acquire the
Embarcadero site, which
is on the south side of the
old Morro Bay Power
Plant. After Dynegy
closed the plant in early
2014, the city took over
the adjoining parking lot,
City Manager Dave Buckingham said. Part of the
lot will now be used by the
museum association.
The association is in the
midst of raising the
$40,000 needed to construct its first permanent
building, which Newland
said would be about the
size of a two-car garage.

Obispo Superior Court
Judge Michael Duffy
denied Funke-Bilus request to lower Scovells
bail set at $500,000
since his arrest noting
Scovells several ongoing
criminal cases.
Funke-Bilu told Duffy
that Scovell is the nicest
guy in the world, but has
recently developed serious
substance abuse problems
for which he wanted to
seek treatment.
With his plea Tuesday,
Scovell can avoid further
jail or prison time if he
successfully completes his
probation without further
violations. He is not allowed to contact his victim, use alcohol or drugs,
or enter a bar for five

drug- and alcohol-impaired drivers.

Police will be patrolling
areas throughout the city
that have seen the most
DUI crashes and arrests.
Officers will be looking
for signs of alcohol and
drug impairment and will
check for proper licensing.
Funding for the DUI

Treatment Court, a court
program for adults with
mental health and counseling needs.
Should he violate his
probation, by law, he must
immediately be sentenced
to seven years in state
prison, Cunningham said.
However, under the
terms of his release,
should Scovell re-offend
before his July hearing, a
judge may sentence him
to up to 14 years in state
prison, Cunningham said.
Scovell ran unsuccessfully for mayor in the
November 2014 general
election against incumbent Tom OMalley, securing more than 40 percent
of the vote to OMalleys
59 percent; write-ins accounted for another 1
percent.

Truckee had gone missing a couple of years ago
when several of the familys cats were disappearing from their Paso Robles
ranch. Moore said after
searching and asking
neighbors, she couldnt
figure out what was happening to the cats and
wondered if they were
being eaten by a wild
animal.
About two years later,
Moore was checking Facebook late at night when
she saw her sons cat
listed on the Lost And
Found Pets North SLO
County group.
It took every ounce of
me not to call and tell her
she found my sons cat,
Moore said. She settled
instead for a private message and headed over to
see the cat the next day.
Sarah Switzer, who
created the Facebook

group, found Truckee

about 5 miles away from
Moores home. Switzer
noticed how friendly the
cat was with kids and
knew it belonged to somebody, Moore said.
Truckee was probably
stolen and then abandoned, Moore said, adding that cats dont wander
that far.
Truckee was covered in
infections from foxtails
and had a hernia, as well
as a hole in her stomach
that appears to have been
caused by a blunt object,
Moore said.
Truckee is now on the
mend, and her family is
thrilled to have their old
furry friend home again.
