“People were so concerned about the very basics of the COVID virus and the response you kind of started to miss that there were segments of our society that were suffering greatly.” Said Blacksburg Police Chief Anthony Wilson.
“Because the pandemic caused so many different ripples that were getting kind of glossed over, we started saying, ‘how many people are we missing’?
As chief, Wilson has come to know a lot of people in town, a lot of
older people, that he comes in contact with, some homebound, and who don’t always have access to devices like tablets or smart phones. He brought the issue to Teaster and 2 weeks, later Grad students Laura York and Emily Hoyt along with working with classmate Callyn Niesen, came up with a volunteer-based program called Covid Companions.
Blacksburg Councilman John Bush said heâs surprised at a response he received from Montgomery County Sheriff Hank Partin on this question: Did any county deputies take part in the storming of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6?
Following an additional question on the subject from Blacksburg Mayor Leslie Hager-Smith, Partin on Jan. 21 wrote: âAside from Bush and yourself we have received no other inquiries regarding this matter. I am not aware of any one from our organization who was either involved with the events on January 06 or in D.C. I have no intention of conducting any inquiries or investigations of my personnel in regards to this matter.â
Dozens of Virginia Tech students are facing potential discipline after police busted at least 10 parties over the weekend, the first of the spring semester.
Tech police received a call about a gathering on campus of more than 10 people, the limit imposed by the governor, said Mark Owczarski, a university spokesman.
