Hearings still on hold in Little Falls arson-murder case
Times Telegram
No new court dates have been set for either of the two women charged in the death of a Little Falls man in the Jan. 6, 2020, fire at the Snyder Apartments, according to a Herkimer County Court official, who said the delay in the in-person hearings is due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Patricia Nethaway and Amber Roche were both indicted on charges of murder and arson in connection with the fire that killed Timothy “Nimmer” Regan, but according to statements they gave to Little Falls Police each claims the other was responsible for setting the fire. Both said they and Regan had been at Ed and Bud’s Grill, but the two gave different accounts of what happened there and of how the fire was started at the apartment building.

Students in Royalton High Schoolâs Tech Club have been participating in YES! (Youth Eco Solutions) for nine years, according to instructor Marty Bratsch. During that time, students have learned to do everything from taking water samples to creating solar-powered cars, boats and trailers from scratch.
The overall mission of the YES! program is âempowering youth to create solutions to todayâs ecological challenges through hands-on projects.â
Royalton High has lived up to that goal.
âThatâs what you try and do, is connect students to these type of issues; environmental issues,â Bratsch said. âWhen they come to their own realization that, âI have an impact wherever I go,â or âI can make change.ââ
