~ Report breaks down
you~h homici~es
By JqHN McCARTHY
Associated Prese Writer
.
COLUMBUS -Pony percent ofOhio'sjuvemle homicide vtctims from
' J980 and 1994 were 4 years old or younger, according to a report released ·
by the state Office of Criminal Justice Services.
. The report, tssued last week as a statewide juvenile crime conference took
place, showed that of 361 of the 899 victtms were 4 or younger. Of those,
144 were under age I, and 21 were less than a week old.
- Who was respo11sible for the deaths? Most were the people dosest to the
vicums. The known offenders included 219 parents, 82 acquamtances and
just I 0 strangers.
, "The fact that the people ~ntrusted with caring for these most vulnerable members of our society were most often the ones responstble for thetr
deaths compounded the tragedy," the report said.
.
.
. Michael Lee, director of the justice servtces office, satd the analysts was
revealing.
.
·
' "We were somewhat surprised to learn that children ages 4 and under
are at nearly as great a risk of becoming homicide victims as those ages 16
and 17," Lee said.
The agency analyzed homicide cases that local law enforcement agencies reported to the FBI under the Uniform Crime Code. .
Toddlers and mfants were at the greatest risk during the winter months,
ihc report said
.
·
,
Dunng the '15-yeat period studied, 105 children age 4 or ~ounger were
killed while .96 children age 10 through 17 dted dunng the wmter months.
. By contrast, 77 children 4 or younger were killed during the summer,
while 128 children age 10 through 17 dted.
·
"Causes could include the close proximity of child to adult on a daily
basis without the opPQttunily to provide adults the relief from the stresses
associated with chtld rearmg," the repon said.
·
lmprovmg parenting skills would go a long way in cutting the homicide
·Me for infants and toddlers, the report said.
.
"Strong families can transcend most internal and external pressures, but
weak families are vulnerable to almost any threat."
Other findtngs from the report:
·
·
-The number of black and white victims under the age of 15 was about
the same, but blacks made up 62 percent of the males age 15 through 17
who were ktlled.
- Males were far more likely to CO!!lmit homicide. Of the known offenders 5 18 were males and 72 were females . •
:__Children age 5 through 9 were at the lowest risk, accounting for only
, 85 of the 899 victims.

tankers containing hazudous materials ~ supposed to be examined by
a special team of inspectors. But
many California Gas Transport
tankers -- as well as those belonging
to other finns -- arrive at the border
after the hazardous materials team
has finished its shift. In such cases,
trucks are supposed to.be diverted to
other border crossings. But that was. n't always the case, according to our
sources. .
In fact, Rudy Camacho, director of
operations for Customs at the Cali·
fomia border, issued a memo last
June identifying California Gas
Transport as "a minimum threat,"
and directing staff that the company's
trucks should be "processed through
our commercial facilities as quickly
as possi~le. "
.
Customs officials in Washington,
however, are now questioning lite
authentieity of the memo.
According to the inter-agency
intelligence report, Customs knew
last spri'ng that California ~as Transport was run by the same people who
aperated another company -- Hidrogas de Juarez. Seven years ago, a
Hidrogas truck was the target of the
largest cocaine seizure in the history

To this day, California Gas Transport has never been busted for ferrying drugs, despite the. suspicions it
has aroused. Whether that's because
the company is running a clean ship
--or due to laJt border security -- will
be . determined in the investigation
that Feinstein is calling for.
Footnote: Rudy Camacho did not
return our repeated calls ·for comment. An official at California Gas
Transport says the company is a new
finn that has no connection to HidiDgas de Juarez -- a contention that's
sharply ·disputed by the inter-agency
intelligence repon.

BIG NATE

from his opening bid, South must have
dropped the singleton king. Any spade
tricks due to your side WO!J 't run aw~y. ·
Clearly, the defense cannot get a dta..
·
.,. inond trick. If declarer needs to t~~ke a
TI\£.Y OfNIOOOLY AAIJO.I"r ~
diamond finesse, it wiD work. So, If you
~~I~ I
~--. ' are to defeat the contract, it looks as
tlJouCh you'D need to cuh three club
tricks now: ·
·
TlniH points to the winning defense:
Switch to the club jock. Luckily part·
ner has. the necessary club holding,
and declarer is left to shake his head
ruefuDy.
·
Tip 44 reads: "When switching to a
suit such as J-x·x oF Q·x·x wheh dum·
my on your right holds low c~r:ds, lead ·
low if you need only two trtcks, but
lead the honor if you need three or

Ron Klinger, the Australian brid&amp;e
maven, has written. a third book of
"lips." This one, •sq More Winning
Bridge Tips" CGollanczl, is more ad·
vanced than the previoua two. You 'will
benefit from taking Klinger's adv_lce,
bu\aome of It wiD be Ioiigb to put 1nto
practice. For example: ~If the defence
is clear to you but may not be clear lo
partner, Icy to find a way to make it
impossible for partner to go wrong." '
That's mUch eaaier typed tllan done.
· My favorite tip is number U, which
is exhibited In today's deal. To test
yourself, look only at the North ·and
East hands . You are defending
against lour spades 'a fter your partner
