FORT WHITE FFA PAIR Death penalty sought NATIONAL CHAMPS in CCI slaying Man has no regret over killing cellmate, a child molester.

By CARL MCKINNEY [email protected]

Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for a Columbia Correctional Institution inmate who said he killed his cellmate for being a child molester, court records show. Robert Earl Lee Craft said he started plot- ting to kill cellmate Darren Craft Shira after learning he abused children while serving as a school resource officer, according to a Florida Department of Law Enforcement report. “Inmate Craft stated that he has no remorse, no regrets that inmate Shira deserved it,” according to the report.

COURTESY PHOTOS Trey Tyre and Trace Taylor, both 12, spent a year-and-a-half working on the project that won them first place at the 2018 National FFA Convention in Indianapolis. CHAMPS Continued From 1A while Trump spoke Saturday — albeit on-screen behind the president. A photo of the celebratory fist-bump the 12-year-olds performed on stage when they found out they won first place in the National FFA Agriscience Fair division appeared briefly on screen behind Trump. “They made a meme about us,” said Trey. “It said, ‘when your haircut’s fresh and you just won your agriscience division.’” The National FFA Twitter account tweeted the clip with the caption on Friday. “It felt pretty great,” said Trace. Neither Trace nor Trey could be there in person to see the president speak, though. They were at the Columbia County Fair preparing their dairy cows after driving all night home from Indianapolis for the judging. “They actually got their award on Friday then they drove all through the night to get back here,” said Amber Taylor, Trace’s mother. “They both showed dairy heifers at the fair on Saturday.” Their year-and-a-half long research study centered on reducing fertilizer use and water requirements through the application of a product called Inocucor Garden Solution.

ANOTHER VIEW Low-cost schools have high value

ids in the low-cost Sun Belt are not suffering academically because of low spending. Florida’s K-12 K public schools are among the best in the nation. Find that surprising? Well, if so, you might be mired in the misguided way we have been taught to think about education progress, according to Stan Liebowitz, an economics professor at the University of Texas at Dallas, and Matthew Kelly, a UTD research fellow. They have authored a new report analyzing education data, which is featured in the November issue of the libertarian magazine Reason, and their study should cause us to rethink what we think of our schools and our state’s education policies. Liebowitz and Kelly looked at the best known graders of state education systems and how they have led the public to believe “the highest-quality state educa- tional systems tend to be in big-spending states in the Northeast or Upper Midwest.” The narrative, they write, then becomes: “These places apparently honor and respect teachers, while Southern states inexplicably abhor them. But the cheapskates in cheap states get their just desserts: Sophisticated northern jurisdictions grow ever smarter, while stingy conservative backwaters sink into ever-low- — er depths of ignorance. The solution is obvious: Pay up My sister in law and friend or your kids will suffer.” Well, to Liebowitz and Kelly, the “obvious” is really not y sister-in-law is also a good have open discussions about reli- all that obvious. friend.
