Francis Weaver was sentenced Friday in Oregon City, a couple days after he was convicted of murder, robbery and being a felon in possession of a ¿rearm. Police said Weaver provided the gun that was used to shoot Edward Spangler of Grants Pass in the robbery-turned-homicide. “I know he was a good man, a very good man, and a good son,” Weaver tearfully told the victim’s family. “That was never supposed to happen.” The killing extends the history of Weaver murders to a third generation. Francis Weaver Ward Weaver III Weaver’s stepfather, Ward Weaver III, was convicted of aggravated murder in 2004, two years after the bodies of Ashley Pond and Miranda Gaddis were found in his backyard. Before the discovery, the search for the 12-year-old Pond and 13-year-old Gaddis riveted Oregon for months and landed the missing girls on the cover of People magazine. The case broke when Francis Weaver, then 19, called emergency dispatchers Warrants THURSDAY The East Oregonian receives a list of warrants on the Friday before publication of the weekend edition.

Courtesy Kindness & Service Ron and Valori Martin “Lucky Charms” Hunters who killed livestock dogs ordered to pay $250,000 BEND (AP) — Two brothers convicted of killing livestock guardian dogs while hunting in the Ochocos have been ordered to pay the dogs’ owner nearly $250,000. A Crook County jury on Tuesday ordered Paul and Craig Johnson to pay the dogs’ owner after a civil damages trial, The Bulletin of Bend reported. The brothers pleaded no contest to a single count each of misdemeanor animal abuse and were sentenced to probation and community service in October 2013. The brothers shot and killed three Great Pyrenees sheepdogs. They told a Crook County sheriff’s deputy in 2012 that they believed they were wild dogs.

When they used an elk bugle, the dogs barked and ran toward them. Considering the circumstances, the Johnsons thought they were wild dogs. The brothers have been ordered to pay owner Gordon Clark $7,500 for the replacement value of the dogs, $100,000 in emotional harm and $139,500 in punitive damages. Leslie would not comment whether he and his client plan to ¿le an appeal. Brendon Alexander, who represented Paul Johnson in the lawsuit, said they are looking at their options in terms of appeals. Clark said the money and favorable verdict don’t make up for the deaths of Elvira, Tony and Jackie Chan, the three dogs killed in 2012. “I have a lot of dogs, but these dogs were born in my garage, and I raised them for the ¿rst couple months of their life,” Clark said, adding later, “I wish it never happened.” 3/11 - 3/13 3/14 - 3/15 Cineplex Show Times $5 Classic Movie Cineplex Show Times $5 Classic Movie 3/16 12:00 PM THE PURPLE ROSE OF CAIRO 3/16 12:00 PM THE PURPLE ROSE OF CAIRO ZOOTOPIA (PG) 2D: 11:40* 4:40 3D : 2:10* 9:40 ZOOTOPIA (PG) 2D: 4:40 7:10 3D : 9:40 7:10 LONDON HAS FALLEN (R) LONDON HAS FALLEN (R) 12:00* 2:30* 5:00 7:30 10:00 5:00 7:30 10:00 WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT (R) WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT (R) 1:40* 4:10 6:50 9:20 4:10 6:50 9:20 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE (PG13) 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE (PG13) 11:50* 2:20* 4:50 7:20 9:50 4:50 7:20 9:50 GODS OF EGYPT (PG13) 2D: 11:30* 4:20 GODS OF EGYPT (PG13) 2D: 4:20 DEADPOOL (R) DEADPOOL (R) 2:00* 7:00 9:30 Dinner in the Steakhouse starts at 4pm COURT & MAIN, PENDLETON • 541.278.1100 ARRESTS, CITATIONS 7KH8PDWLOOD&RXQW\6KHULII¶V2I¿FH DUUHVWHG6KDQQD/HQRUH+HZLWWRI $WKHQDIRUPLVGHPHDQRUDVVDXOWDIWHUD FDOOHUUHSRUWHGDZRPDQZDVKLWWLQJ SHRSOH James William Romanick, 20, and Vivian Carolyn Cano, 19, both of Hermiston.
