The court ruled 7,0 in favor of publicly reprimanding and suspendi ng Medley. In the opinion. Ju stice Francis E.

"It devastated me." · The state prisons department's computer system that tracks the release ot; inmates was undergoing maintenance by agency employees Thursday night when a file listing inmates' names was activated and accidentally sent . to acontractor that handles the automated noli fications. The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction_ was double-checking to ensure that no. inmates were aci::iden- tally . released but none appeared to have been. spokesman Brian Niceswanger said. -The system does not trigger a release procedu(e. Only the DRC or a prison ofticial can do that, he said. · About 3JXJO calls were made starting at noon Friday. he said, and the. system was shut down about an hour later whe_n concemed crime victims started calling the -agency. The department received dozens of calls from victims, Nic'eswanger said. The list of inmates in the file appeared to be random, ranging from the most dan gerous ·to those who committed lesser crimes. he said. "Somehow a tile contain· ing a list of people who obviously aren't going to be released go t sent, to the company," he said. The contractor.

The company received the tile Thursday night, but the calls went out later because of a normal function that prevents calls at odd hours. Appriss serves about t ,500 · cri minal justice a·gencies nationwide. Late Friday aftemoon, Appriss determined who had been called and began making follow-up ·calls to tell the victims of the mistake, Jones said. The system was brought back up and would be watched , through the weekend, he said. Officials were trying. to find out how many inmates were . i11volved because some had ll)Ultiple victims or victims put others on the notification list.

California farmers grow al)out 85 perc.ent of the peaches that end up in a can in the United States, but demand has been f!\lling as consumers buy more fresh fruit and cheaper imports from places such as Greece and China cut into the state's share of the market. The glut has led the U.S, Department of Agriculture to offer $7 million to California growers wlio agree to cut their trees and' promise not to plant peaches for the next 10 years. This isn't the first time the USDA is helping struggling peach farmers .. T~e agency surplus regularly buys canned peaches to supply government-funded institutions, making them a staple ·in school cafeterias, senior citizen centers and disaster-relief .programs.

Martella, 61 , plans to plant al~ond and walnut . · trees on hts land. It used to be hard to get a peach in the winter. People who wanted fruit year-round had to do their own canning. Eventually, plucking a can off the shelf at the local grocery store made it easier. But the global market has changed that. "We can bring in fresh fruit from other countries or other parts of this country," said Harry An~ an adviser who researches tree fruit for the University of California's cooperative extension program in Fresno County. "You can get fresh peaches year-round." , With the llreater availability of fresh frutt, the demand for canned peaches has fallen. Retail sales for canned peaches in the United States declined from $59.9 million in. 200 I to about $53.7 million in 2005, according to the Food Institute, · a nonprofit that tracks different food mdustries. . · "When . you . put it all together, nobody here 's making atiy money," said Andris. the rese'llrcher. Still, the program is bittersweet for some farmers. "Peaches supported us for many. many years ," Martella said.

But the effort failed when other farmers planted more orchards. There are more acres devoied to the fruit now than there have been in a decade. according to the association. And American consumers are eating more imported peaches than ever. According !o Rich Hudgins, president of the canning association, the share of imported canned peaches has nearly doubled m the past decade, with for. eign peaches oow accounting for about II percent of the · domestic market. "The scope of the problem was )Ust too big for us to han- · die,' Hudgins said, explaining the goverrunent's decision to step in. . By the time the new harvest begins in June, growers will have removed more than . 4,000 acres of orchards, bringing total canning peach acreage down to 26,250 the lowest in 50 years, according to the. association. About a quarter of the state's canning peach farmers applieq for the government's offer pf up to $!, 700 per acre of trees destroyed.
