PENDLETON
Pendleton Police Department
Teen faces
promotes two to lieutenant
By PHIL WRIGHT
East Oregonian
Two Pendleton police sergeants are
moving on up the chain of command.
Chuck Byram and Tony Nelson take
on the titles and responsibilities of police
lieutenants come Jan. 6. Pendleton Police
Chief Stuart Roberts said the promotions
are about planning for the future.
Bill Caldera retired earlier this year as
lieutenant of Pendleton police and took
on the job of Pilot Rock police chief.
Pendleton police last month conducted
promotion exercises, and at the end
Roberts said he recommended Byram
and Nelson to work as the department’s
latest second-in-commands.
The department years ago had two
lieutenants. Roberts said moving back
to the old model makes sense because
the demands police face are more
diverse than ever, and each lieutenant
will oversee one shift. Roberts also
said he wants his staff ready to handle
the demands of administration in his
absence. He is only a few years away
from qualifying for retirement.
Cpl. Tyler Reddington and detective
Brandon Gomez will fill the sergeants’
spots. Officer Nathan Bessette is set to
be the next corporal, and officer Drew
Hubel bumps to detective. Roberts said
he budgeted for the promotions, which
have some savings because the staff
involved are not at the top of the salary
scale.
Officer Shelly Studebaker will move
into the community services officer job
and work with residents and property
owners and managers to reduce crime.
Lance Zaugg was doing that work in
addition to his role as school resource
officer.
Roberts said he was reluctant to fill
these posts because that would have
compromised police patrols, a service
the department must provide. But one
officer is returning to the department
after recuperating from an injury, and
another is coming back after the birth of
his child. And the department’s newest
officer, Travis McMasters, graduated
Friday from the basic police course at
the Oregon Public Safety Academy,
Salem. (The Umatilla Tribal Police
Department’s officer Markus Williams
also graduated). Roberts said McMas-
ters has several weeks of field training
to complete before he can plug into the
work rotation.
Pendleton also has an opening.
Roberts said he fired one new officer
about halfway through the 16-week
police academy. Joe Toepfer started at
the academy on July 11 with McMasters
and is not on the graduation list.
Roberts did not identify the man
or go into details about what led to the
dismissal but said the former employee
“made some poor decisions” while
attending the academy and “I’m just not
about that.”
Pendleton invested close to $20,000
into him before the termination. Still,
Roberts said, that’s better than giving
someone a badge and gun who is unfit
for the job.
Roberts also informed the city council
other officers could take leave due
pregnancies, and he would not promote
anyone if that jeopardizes patrol.
Cops find suspect after sending him Facebook warning
BRIDGEVILLE, Pa. (AP) — State
police have helped cops in a southwestern
Pennsylvania town keep a Facebook
promise they made to an armed robbery
suspect: “We WILL find you.”
The Meadville Tribune reports
Tuesday that 32-year-old Robert Watkins
III was arrested Sunday in Rockdale
Township. That’s near Meadville, which
is Watkins’ hometown — and about 100
miles north of Bridgeville.
That’s where police got a warrant
charging Watkins with the Thanksgiving
Day robbery of a Gulf gasoline station.
Bridgeville police posted a message
on Facebook saying, “It’s only a matter
of time before we find you.” The post
included several pictures of Watkins,
and said he had been identified through
surveillance video at the scene.
more rape
charges
East Oregonian
The Umatilla County District
Attorney’s Office this week brought
three more rape cases against Cole
James Pryor, 18, of Pendleton.
Circuit court records show a
grand jury on Wednesday handed
up three new indictments, one
alleging third-
degree rape and
second-degree
sexual abuse of
a girl younger
than 16 and the
others alleging
second-degree
rape of two
girls younger
than 14.
Pryor
The district
attorney’s
office Thursday in Pendleton
charged Pryor with all counts,
which are felonies.
The indictments allege Pryor
raped the first girl in November
2015, the second and third girls in
March and early April, and the most
recent rape was in July.
Pendleton police learned about
that incident first and arrested Pryor
on Nov. 10 for first-degree rape of a
12-year-old girl. That investigation
led to the others. Pendleton Police
Chief Stuart Roberts said Pryor met
some of his victims through their
older sisters and others through
social media. Pryor and some of the
girls were friends on Facebook.
The district attorney also charged
Pryor with reckless driving and
two counts of reckless endangering
another, all misdemeanors, for a
Oct. 2 incident.
Pryor remains in the Umatilla
County Jail, Pendleton, in lieu
of $280,000 bail. His next court
hearing is Dec. 20.
