Kitzhaber and Hayes re-emerge
AP Photo/Don Ryan, file
In this Jan. 2015 file photo, Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber
escorts his fiancee, Cylvia Hayes, onto the House floor
before he is sworn in for an unprecedented fourth term
as Governor in Salem.
“I am thrilled to report that
things are settling down and
I am fully re-engaging my
professional new economy
work,” Hayes wrote. “My
hope and intention is that both
my professional work and
my writing will help generate
more kindness in our world.”
Her website, registered
Aug. 20, features photos of
Hayes and Tessa, her Rhode-
sian Ridgeback, and one of
her and Kitzhaber on a river-
bank. An inspirational image
shows a lion’s face with the
Kennewick teens accused of
kidnapping great-grandmother
colleagues.
“Going
through
a
prolonged, intense, public
ordeal would prove to be like
running a marathon,” Hayes
writes. “Some people showed
up for me at the starting line.
A few would join for stretches
in the middle. Very, very few
would run the whole course
by my side.”
Both she and Kitzhaber
have also lobbed attacks at
the media. Last week, Hayes
issued a statement blasting
The Oregonian/OregonLive
for its coverage of the scandal
and for reporting on thousands
of emails released over the
past several months. The most

prevent the disclosure of

In August, a judge ordered

most vocal. Last week, she

words “My scars tell a story.”
“For the past year I have
been in the midst of a series
of very intense and traumatic
experiences,” Hayes writes
in one post. “I have struggled
with: Burning humiliation and
shame, the terror of feeling
my identity and career shat-
tering, painful realization of
how blind I have been to my
own ego, and, a deep sense of
loss and abandonment.”
In another post, Hayes
describes feeling abandoned

The woman’s 16-year-old great-grandson enlisted
the help of a 14-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy
to kidnap her, The Oregonian reports. Police say the
boy threw dirt in her face, put an apron on her head
and tied her hands before putting her in the trunk on
Monday.
While the teens went into the Walmart, the

of a vehicle and reckless endangering. The girl also is
in custody at the county’s Juvenile Detention Center.
The two boys told investigators that they considered
releasing the woman three miles into a canyon or
knocking her unconscious, killing her and burning the
car to destroy evidence, according to a probable cause

The girl told investigators they teens wanted to run
away to Portland and that one boy had an idea to use
his great-grandmother’s car.
The great-grandmother was not injured and turned
down medical treatment when deputies responded
early Tuesday morning. The Walmart where she
escaped gave her new clothes and food.

The lack of an armed guard on campus sparked
widespread debate in the days following the Oct. 1

a year before shooting but opted against it.
Commissioner Tim Freeman says it’s a wise
decision that will be very comforting to students.

Sheldon Jr. said the program
will empower tribal law
enforcement nationwide by
giving them the tools they
have sought for years to
protect their communities.
“It has consistently been
our position that having the
ability to independently report
and access criminal informa-
tion is the very best way to
protect our citizens,” he said.
Wyn Hornbuckle, a Justice
Department spokesman, said
the agency has focused on
improving tribal access to
the federal databases, but
their participation hinged on
regulations in the state where
they are located. A working
group came up with solutions
to those roadblocks, leading
to the new program.
The shift allows tribes to
conduct background checks,
especially when they need
to place a child with a foster
parent in an emergency situa-
tion, Sheldon said. Plus, they
can enter tribal restraining
orders into federal databases,
which are used by gun dealers
to ensure legal sales, he said.
The restraining order
against Raymond Fryberg,
which should have prevented
him from buying guns, was
never sent to the Snohomish
County clerk or entered into
the National Instant Criminal
Background Check System.
His 15-year-old son,
Jaylen, used one of his father’s
guns in a mass shooting at
Marysville-Pilchuck
High
School in October 2014.
Raymond Fryberg was
not charged in the shooting
but later was convicted of
six federal counts of illegally

scheduled to be sentenced
early next year.
The Tulalip Tribe urged the
U.S. attorney general to grant
tribes access to the databases
in 2005, 2010 and 2013, but
no system was established,
said Francesca Hillery, a tribal
spokeswoman.

An article and headline in Wednesday’s East Ore-
gonian provided incorrect information about medi-
cal marijuana sales in the city of Boardman. Board-
man City Council did not vote to allow medical
marijuana growers and dispensaries. The ordinance
prohibited the sale and production of recreational

marijuana. City Manager Karen Pettigrew said the
council could decide to address medical marijuana
separately at a future meeting.
