Pine-Richland head coach Eric Kasperowicz works with his team during practice on Aug. 18, 2020.
Ousted football coach Eric Kasperowicz “expressed minimal concern for hazing or empathy for the students” during a 2½-hour interview with Pine-Richland administrators in late-March, according to a letter the school district sent him cutting ties.
The three-page letter dated April 14 notified Kasperowicz his contract wouldn’t be renewed and detailed a school district investigation into the football program that found “a pattern of hazing, ‘rites of passage,’ and intimidation occurred in and around the locker room and stadium area for years.”
Athletic director Sean Simmons, high school principal Nancy Bowman and assistant principal Thomas Salopek signed the letter, which the Tribune-Review obtained Thursday from Kasperowicz.
Secret camera found in county office in Ohio: ‘Despicable display of corruption’ [Journal-News, Hamilton, Ohio]
Feb. 1 No criminal charges have been filed after a hidden surveillance camera was discovered in the wall of a safety building office in Miami County north of Dayton, but the county prosecutor called the case a “despicable display of corruption and misuse of power.”
Miami County Sheriff’s detective Lt. Jason Moore launched an investigation Dec. 9 after he determined a covert camera likely was installed in 2015 by then-county IT Director Matt Watkins. Watkins told investigators he installed the camera at the direction of former Miami County Commissioner John “Bud” O’Brien, according to county documents and recorded sheriff’s interviews obtained by the Journal-News.

TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) - As they had for three decades, the Bowmans stopped by a Tucson Safeway on Saturday, Jan. 8, 2011.
The parking lot was full for a Congress on your Corner event with Gabby Giffords.
As the Bowmans were bagging brussels sprouts and deciding whether to stop and meet Giffords, they heard several shots ring out.
Nancy Bowman, David’s wife, said she knew something was wrong.
HIGH POINT â The cityâs largest hotel has apparently changed names again.
The property at 135 S. Main St. is no longer under the Red Lion brand and is now called the Craftsman Plaza Hotel, according to the website of Great American Hotel Group, which lists the High Point location as one of its âfeatured properties.â
The hotel, which has been closed for remodeling since last spring, had been known as Red Lion in recent years.
A call to the Great American Hotel Group corporate office in Dover, New Hampshire, was not returned.
Nancy Bowman, director of sales and marketing for Visit High Point, the primary tourism agency in the city, said she knew the hotel had dropped the Red Lion name but did not know its branding plans.
