THE FUMES SO STRONG - SOMEONE CALLED POLICE TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT THEY THOUGHT WAS GOING ON INSIDE THE APARTMENT COMPLEX IN RAMAGE... "Explosions...it could hurt somebody...anybody." ONE OF THOSE EVACUATED - A BEDRIDDEN MAN WHO HAD NO IDEA THE MAN WHO LIVED ABOVE HIM WAS PUTTING HIS LIFE AND HEALTH IN JEOPARDY... "People that live here are that people that go to school, people that work, there are good people living here abd their lives are now turned upside down because you've got somebody in an apartment that thinks its a good idea to make meth and what they've done is probably contaminate the entire building." THAT SOMEBODY .. DEPUTIES SAY IS ANTHONY BALL. HE HAD TO BE DECONTAMINATED ON SCENE AND TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL..BUT WILL ALSO FACE METH RELATED CHARGES. THEY ALSO BELIEVE THERE ARE MORE SUSPECTS WHO WERE COOKING THE METH INSIDE THE APARTMENT AND THEY'RE WORKING TO TRACK THEM DOWN... "The apartment was contaminated last night through some type of fire on leakage." FOR NEIGHBORS LIKE LUKE ALRIDGE - HE SAYS METH HAS BECOME TOO MUCH OF A PROBLEM IN BOONE COUNTY....

EMILY PRINCE'S DAUGHTER BROOKE IS LIKE ANY SIX YEAR OLD GIRL NATS "WHAT IS IT? BEEP 95? PERFECT!" EXCEPT MANY TIMES, SOFTBALL PRACTICE...AND OTHER PARTS OF HER LIFE... ARE INTERRUPTED BY TYPE ONE DIABETES. 21:33:30 "(TEARS) COME SEE MY DAUGHTER WHEN SHE WAKES UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND HER BODY ACHES FROM HER LOW BLOOD SUGAR." PRINCE SAYS HER DAUGHTER HAS 15 UNEXCUSED ABSENSES FROM SCHOOL BECAUSE OF HER CONDITION. BROOK'S DOCTOR RECOMMENDED SHE HAVE A SPECIAL EDUCATION PLAN, BUT PRINCE SAYS BARBOURSVILLE ELEMENTARY WON'T ACCEPT HER DIABETES AS AN EXCUSE FOR HER ABSENCES. 21:27:14 "THE TRUANCY OFFICER SAID HE WAS NO LONGER GOING TO HONOR THE CHRONIC ILLNESS EXCUSE." JEDD FLOWERS, COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR WITH CABELL COUNTY SCHOOLS, SAYS HE CANT COMMENT ON THIS SPECIFIC CASE BECAUSE OF PRIVACY LAWS... BUT SAYS DIABETES ALONE, ISN'T ENOUGH REASON TO MISS SCHOOL. 21:21:40 "WE HAVE ALOT OF DIABETIC CHILDREN." 21:22:21 "AT BBVILLE ELEMENTARY WE HAVE A NURSE THAT IS THERE EVERYDAY." 21:31:19 "NO THEY DONT! THERE IS ONLY ONE THERE 2 DAYS OF A WEEK." PRINCE SAYS HER DAUGHTER REQUIRES MORE CARE THAN THE AVREAGE CHILD, AND SOMETIMES THAT NECESSITATES KEEPING HER HOME, BUT FLOWERS SAYS THE SCHOOL WOULDN'T PURSUE A TRUANCY CASE WITHOUT GOOD REASON. 21:22:52 "WE WILL NOT WASTE THE COURTS TIME UNLESS WE HAVE EVIDENCE, AND THERE IS A PROBLEM." THE SCHOOL WOULDN'T COMMENT ON WHY THEY WOULDN'T ACCEPT THE CHRONIC ILLNESS EXCUSE FROM HER DOCTOR. RIGHT NOW, IT'S UNCLEAR IF THIS CASE WILL BE SETTLED OUTSIDE OF COURT. IN HUNTINGTON. DAN MATICS.

Return to Story IndexLOCAL HOSPITAL DISPARITY
THE NUMBERS ARE SOMEWHAT SHOCKING BUT AS EYEWITNESS NEWS REPORTER KENNIE BASS EXPLAINS, SOME EXPERTS SAY THE FIGURES CAN BE DECEIVING. YOU MAY THINK THE SMALLER ST. FRANCIS HOSPITAL WOULD HAVE TO CHARGE MORE TO KEEP UP -- BUT NEW DATA JUST RELEASED BY MEDICARE -- SHOWS OTHERWISE! ON AVERAGE ST. FRANCIS CHARGES 10-THOUSAND DOLLARS LESS FOR MEDICAL PROCEDURES THAN CHARLESTON AREA MEDICAL CENTER! AND FOR SOME PROCEDURES -- LIKE TREATING SEVERE SEPSIS -- CAMC CHARGED 38-THOUSAND TO ST. FRANCIS'S 14-THOUSAND. THE INFORMATION IS BEING RELEASED ABOUT MORE THAN 3-THOUSAND HOSPITALS NATIONWIDE, TO MAKE PATIENTS, BETTER CONSUMERS. BUT EVAN JENKINS -- THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE WV STATE MEDICAL ASSOCIATION WARNS IT'S ONLY A FIRST STEP IN EDUCATING PATIENTS -- THE SECOND STEP IS REALLY EXAMINING HOW THESE NUMBERS WERE REACHED AND LOOKING AT THE QUALITY OF CARE AND WHAT'S RIGHT FOR YOU. 4130 this is a step in the right direction but it is a step to be careful about but its too early to make a judgement call if i were a patente to say i want to go to the cheapest THIS INFORMATION COMES AS WEST VIRGINIA HAS DECIDED TO EXPAND MEDICAID TO ABOUT 100-THOUSAND MORE PATIENTS... AND IS IMPORANT BECAUSE MEDICARE, LIKE MOST INSURANCE COMPANIES, DOESN'T PAY 100-PERCENT OF HOSPITAL COSTS... LEAVING PATIENTS EITHER IN DEBT -- OR LEAVING OTHER CONSUMERS TO PICK UP THE TAB. LAST YEAR, WEST VIRIGNIA HOSPITALS PROVIDED MORE THAN 800-MILLION DOLLARS IN UNCOMPENSATED CARE.... AND THIS REPORT IS THE FIRST STEP IN MAKING PATIENTS -- CONSUMERS - AWARE OF JUST HOW MUCH HEALTH CARE COSTS. IN CHARLESTON, KENNIE BASS EYEWITNESS NEWS. ACCORDING TO THE REPORT, CAMC, ST. FRANCIS AND THOMAS MEMORIAL ALL TEND TO CHARGE LESS THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. A SPOKESPERSON FOR THE WEST VIRGINIA HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION, SAYS HOSPITAL COSTS OFTEN VARY BECAUSE OF PATIENT POPULATION, AND HOSPITALS WHICH PROVIDE HIGHLY SPECIALIZED CARE, LIKE C-A-M-C, HAVE A DIFFERENT, HIGHER COST STRUCTURE. THE ASSOCIATION BELIEVES THE MEDICAID EXPANSION WILL HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON BRINGING DOWN THE COST.
Return to Story IndexMU TUITION HIKE
THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED A TUITION INCREASE AT THEIR MEETING THURSDAY AFTERNOON. THE INCREASE COMES AFTER A 5 MILLION DOLLAR DECREASE IN STATE FUNDS FOR THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR. UNDER THE NEW PLAN... UNDERGRADUATES WHO LIVE IN-STATE WOULD SEE THEIR TUITION INCREASE 4.82 PERCENT... OR 140 DOLLARS PER SEMESTER. GRAD STUDENTS WOULD PAY AN EXTRA 268 DOLLARS EACH SEMESTER... AND METRO STUDENTS WHO LIVE ACROSS THE BORDER IN OHIO AND KENTUCKY WOULD SEE THE BIGGEST INCREASE... AT ABOUT 6 PERCENT. STUDENTS WE TALKED TO SAY THEY'RE DISAPPOINTED... BUT NOT SURPRISED. Well I know a lot of people in administration have been a student they have been here so I guess they can understand it but I mean for me I would much rather not have an increase, but you have to do what you have to do. THE BOARD WILL STILL HAVE TO APPROVE THE BUDGET FOR THE 2013-2014 FISCAL YEAR. THAT'S SCHEDULED FOR NEXT MONTH'S MEETING.

NEARLY 75-THOUSAND PEOPLE HAVE VIEWED THE VIDEO ON YOUTUBE ! EYEWITNESS NEWS REPORTER KATELYN SYKES HAS MORE ON THE STORY THAT'S BECOME A SENSATION ONLINE. "My name is Shaun Adkins. I am a lifelong resident of Logan County." IT WAS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SHAUN ADKINS TO SPEAK HIS MIND IN FRONT OF SENATOR JOE MANCHIN THAT'S GONE VIRAL. ADKINS AND MANCHIN, HEAD TO HEAD, AT A TOWN HALL MEETING IN LOGAN. "Right now in Washington, you guys are spending money at an alarming pace. It's unsustainable. We send billions of dollars a year to other countries, many of whom want to kill us, while we have kids in our own country that go to bed hungry at night. That's unacceptable." "I have no ill will towards Senator Manchin. I just wanted some answers and I want some truth. I want to see the government more accoutable to the people who they represent." AT TIMES THE CROWD WOULD CHEER AND APPLAUD WHEN ADKINS WAS TALKING -- AGREEING WITH THE VET AS HE WENT ON ABOUT THE DYING COAL INDUSTRY. "So we're out there chasing unicorns and leprachauns while we have people that can't put food on the table or pay their house payment and that's unacceptable." "basically what he said is absolutely accurate. There is a war on coal from this administration and the EPA. There's no other way to put it and I'm hoping maybe I can bring them to their senses." ADKINS SAID IT'S TIME MORE PEOPLE STAND UP AND LET THEIR VOICES BE HEARD. "so many times i think people look at government like it's something distant from them or it's something they don't want to have anything to do with and a lot of times politicians take advantage of that. they tell us what they want to hear."

SOME OCEANA RESIDENTS SAY WHILE THERE IS NO DENYING THERE IS RAMPANT PRESCRIPTION DRUG ABUSE IN THE AREA, DIRECTOR SEAN DUNNE'S MOVIE CONTAINS A NUMBER OF INACCURATE STATEMENTS AND ERRORS WHICH DON'T REFLECT WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING. A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DIRECTOR SAYS HE DOESN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE FILM UNTIL A DISTRIBUTION DEAL IS IN PLACE, WHICH WOULD ALLOW PEOPLE TO SEE "OXYANA" AND MAKE UP THEIR OWN MINDS.

AS NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT KRISTINE FRAZAO REPORTS, QUESTIONS ABOUT WHETHER THE STATE DEPARTMENT AND THE GOVERNMENT HID FACTS ABOUT THE ATTACKS WILL NO DOUBT BE DEBATED IN THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL RACE. THERE ARE SOME IN WASHINGTON WHO HAVE MADE WHAT HAPPENED IN BENGHAZI IN SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR, BOTH POLITICAL AND PERSONAL...WITH FINGERS POINTED AT FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY CLINTON. "I don't question her motives but I think her dereliction of duty and her lack of leadership should preclude her from ever holding office." (VO- RAND PAUL SPEECH VIDEO) A POTENTIAL 2016 PRESIDENT RIVAL, KENTUCKY SENATOR RAND PAUL LAID INTO HER AT A SPEECH IN LAST WEEK IN MISSOURI. Frankly images matter. The victims matter.

STILL MANY OTHERS SAY THAT IS TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT AND SAY HER CRITICS LIED ABOUT HER INVOLVEMENT AND ACCUSATIONS SHE SIGNED OFF ON REDUCING SECURITY IN BENGHAZI. (D) New York (1:281:35) "The fact is that the secretary did not sign this cable in 2012. Her name was typed at the bottom of the page which is just the general procedure for thousands of cables that come out of the State Department every single year. issue are divisive , but there is one other thing to take into consideration here and that is the timing. It's Now May of 2013...and if Clinton DOES decide to run that announcement would most likely not even come for two more years- a lifetime in the world of Washington news cycles.

Return to Story IndexEVITA
EYEWITNESS NEWS ENTERTAINMENT REPORTER KENNIE BASS TALKS WITH THE STARS ABOUT BRINGING THE SHORT BUT BRILLIANT POLITICAL CAREER OF EVA PERON TO LIFE ON STAGE. Kennie Bass/Eyewitness News: A saint to some, a pariah to others, Even six decades after her death from cancer at the age of 33, Eva Peron's legacy is still hotly debated. The Andrew Lloyd Weber-Tim Rice rock opera "Evita" explores the many facets of the woman who rose from poverty to the height of power. Building a coalition of workers and unions she helped sweep her husband Juan Peron to the presidency. Emily Capece/"Eva Peron": The story of Evita is that of a young girl. We see her in the opening scene as a 15-year old who is in a small rural town outside of Buenos Aires, Argentina. And she makes her way into the big city and meets the right people at the right time and kind of climbs up the social ladder and finally meets Juan Peron who is a general and he takes her to the top and they become the president and the president's wife. Kennie Bass/Eyewitness News: Applauded by millions as a champion of the poor and impoverished, Evita was also ravaged by critics for her unrivaled ambition, hunger for power and attempts to squash her husband's opponents. The musical focuses on this aspect of her life as a narrator outlines Evita's perceived offenses and greed. Ryan Hardiman/"Che": All of the dialogue is sung. My character helps out a lot in that respect because I play Che Guevara and he is an observer and a commentator on the story, a narrator and kind of a liason between the audience and the action unfolding on stage. Kennie Bass/Eyewitness News: Whether she was saint or sinner, Eva Peron's impact on the western hemisphere in the middle part of the last century is undeniable. Her story remains as poignant today as it was at the height of her influence. Emily Capece/"Eva Peron": She was very good to her people, to her descamisados which was the poor, lower class, She stripped the oligarchy of their riches and spread the wealth all the way down so there was definitely a certain faction of society that loved her. For On Stage I'm Kennie Bass. Enjoy the show. "EVITA" HAS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT PERFORMANCES SET FOR THIS WEEKEND, ALONG WITH A SUNDAY MATINEE. NOW IS YOUR CHANCE TO WIN TICKETS TO SEE THE SHOW AT THE CHARLESTON CIVIC CENTER LITTLE THEATER. JUST BE THE 11TH CALLER AT 866-831-0811 AND YOU WIN RESERVED SEATS.
