A6 • HERMISTONHERALD.COM WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 26, 2015 FROM PAGE 1 • PUBLIC SAFETY LOG HILL: continued from Page A1 STAFF PHOTO BY E.J. HARRIS Umatilla County Circuit Court Judge Daniel J. Hill has been appointed as state judge advocate for the Oregon National Guard by Gov. Kate Brown. Judge Hill is a colonel in the Oregon National Guard. cess functioned and didn’t function. We’ve gotten more organized since Ka- trina. We’re planning bet- ter. We’re working with the feds better. There’s just much more interrela- tionship.” Hill said one of the judge advocates he super- vises is assigned speci¿ - cally to domestic opera- tions, while others work more closely with the brigade operationally for combat operations. In 2006, Hill was de- ployed as staff judge ad- vocate for Combined Joint Task Force Phoenix V to Kabul, Afghanistan. He said the legal personnel supported the task force by handling military jus- tice claims, providing le- gal assistance and advis- ing on operational law, while also working with Afghan judge advocates and trying to get legal training down to the Af- ghan troops. Hill said being in the National Guard has pro- vided ample opportunities to continue his legal and military education, which were bene¿ cial in his full- time career. After servicing in the active duty Army follow- ing law school, he estab- lished a private practice as an attorney in Hermiston and spent time as munic- ipal judge and a prosecu- tor before being elected as a state circuit court judge for Umatilla and Morrow counties in 2004. “I’ve been able to apply a lot of what I’ve learned to how I do my job here,” he said in his Hermiston court of¿ ce. “There are some bene- ¿ ts to National Guard service, but the big thing, I think, is being part of a bigger team and doing the right thing. Those that are in the legal ¿ eld, it’s a good place to be to serve your country to have the opportunity for training, travel and service. Of course, you have to be willing to get a little dirty too.” Hill said he has been unof¿ cially acting as the state judge advocate since the former of¿ cer retired in June 2014. After graduating from high school in Hermiston, Hill obtained an associate degree from Blue Moun- tain College and a bache- lor’s degree from Oregon State University before attending law school at Willamette University. He went into active duty for the Army as a ¿ rst lieutenant with the Judge Advocate General’s Corps in 1987. After being dis- charged, he joined the Na- tional Guard in the spring in 1991. “I’ve always just done pretty much what they’ve asked me to do and tried to do it right,” Hill said. “I’m pleased to be able to ¿ ll the role, to do the job for the state on behalf of the adjutant general and the governor and to con- tinue to take care of my JAG section until I ¿ nally retire.” • John Arthur Baxter, 25: third-degree theft, possession of methamphetamine. • Ezequiel Dimas, 19: Hermiston Mu- nicipal Court warrant — failure to appear. • Jason William Nichols, 23: reckless driving. • Samantha Linn South, 20: third-de- gree theft. • Trey Miller Montez, 18: hit and run. • Abraham Valdez Valentin, 24: driving under the infl uence of intoxicants, careless driving. • Keri Anne Martin, 37: possession of methamphetamine, failure to appear, third-degree escape, warrant — issuance of citation. • Josue Grimaldo, 22: failure to appear. • Brian William Bush, 50: posses- sion of methamphetamine, probation violation, interfering with a peace offi cer, Hermiston Municipal Court warrant — failure to pay fi nes. • Walter Zarate Escobar, 45: driving under the infl uence of intoxicants. • Clarence Delgardo King, 45: parole violation, driving while license suspended or revoked, failure to carry proof of insurance, Hermiston Municipal Court warrant — failure to appear. • Riboberto Bazan Ayala, 38: failure to appear. • Shellie Lynna Edgerly, 47: Hermiston Municipal Court warrant — failure to pay fi nes. • Kylee Jean Flores, 19: Hermiston Municipal Court warrant — failure to pay fi nes. • Ryan Lynn Williams, 19: Hermiston Municipal Court warrants — failure to pay fi nes, failure to appear. • Mike Amaya Gonzalez, 20: restrain- ing order violation. • Laura Renee Thornton, 34: third-de- gree theft. • Alexander Robert Sendlinger, 20: interfering with making a report, harass- ment, minor in possession of alcohol. • Nicholas Brandon Zook, 34: second-degree theft. • Robyn Lynn Zook, 34: failure to appear.
