Former Commissioner’s Mom Found Guilty

The mother of a former Clinton County commissioner was found guilty of conspiracy Tuesday in the theft of $100,000 from the Lock Haven YMCA.

A jury deliberated about a half hour before finding Kimberly Coleman guilty of all charges against her.

Prosecutors said Coleman, her son, former county commissioner Adam Coleman, and former YMCA executive director Jeremiah Clark schemed to steal the money from the “Y.”

Clark pleaded guilty to theft charges in March and was sentenced to at least 11 and a half months in jail and was ordered to pay restitution.

Adam Coleman is expected to go to trial in July on theft charges.

Kimberly Coleman will be sentenced at a later date.

The state attorney general’s office charged a man from Lycoming County Tuesday with illegally dumping gas well production water known as brine.

Investigators said in February John Marsh of Jersey Shore got his tanker stuck in mud along a rural road in Clinton County and to lighten the load, he allegedly dumped 200 gallons of brine.

Environmental officials said lab tests detected elevated levels of toxins in the soil where the brine was spilled.

Superintendent Charged with DUI

The superintendent of the Jersey Shore Area School District has been charged with driving under the influence.

According to state police, Richard Emery’s blood alcohol content was nearly three times the legal limit last month when he crashed in Northumberland County.

Newswatch 16 spoke with the Jersey Shore area superintendent Tuesday, but he had no comment on the charge. He is still on the job.

Emery could be looking for some way to save his job. He has been superintendent in the district for more than seven years and is now facing charges he was drunk behind the wheel the Friday before Easter.

Troopers said Emery crashed along Route 147 near Milton and had bloodshot, glassy eyes. Court papers state Emery was unable to keep his balance during the sobriety test, and a blood test showed he had a blood alcohol of .21 percent, well over the legal limit.
