Heroin trial begins Bush schedul
11 defendants face life sentences for deaths
of 4 Plano youths involving 'black tar'
meeting witli
BEAUMONT (AP) — Jury
selection got under way Tues
day in the federal trial of 11
people accused of distribut
ing black tar heroin in the
Dallas suburb of Plano, lead
ing to four overdose deaths in
five months.
About 80 potential jurors
were called to the federal
courthouse in Beaumont for
questioning Tuesday. The tri
al, moved from Sherman at
defense lawyers’ request, is
expected to last about four
weeks.
In a 36-count indictment
issued last summer, 29 peo
ple were accused of smug
gling heroin and cocaine
from Mexico in 1997 and sell
ing it to juveniles and young
adults in the Plano area.
Eighteen people have
pleaded guilty. The latest to
do so, 22-year-old Jose Anto
nio Pineda, pleaded guilty
Monday to one count of us
ing a telephone in the distri
bution of a controlled sub
stance. Pineda, who had
been charged with conspira
cy and distribution, faces a
maximum four-year prison
term and $250,000 fine.
The 11 being tried face up
to life in prison because of a
rarely used federal sentenc
ing enhancement that allows
for the stiff punishment when
prosecutors can trace a lethal
dose of illegal drugs directly
to the dealer.
Prosecutors allege the de
fendants used shoes with
false compartments to smug
gle the drugs across the bor
der from Mexico. Once in
Plano, the drugs were dis
tributed from several loca
tions, including a residence
known as the “Blue House”
and an open-air market.
From June 1997 through
November 1997, four people
who allegedly purchased
heroin from the defendants
died of overdoses. The vic
tims were Erin Baker, 16;
Wesley Scott, 19; Rob Hill, 19;
and Milan Malina, 20, all of
whom either lived in Plano or
attended Plano schools.

Blanco monks face charges
of indecency with children
BLANCO (AP) — In their flowing black robes and match
ing hats, the bearded monks of Christ of the Hills Monastery
for years were merely a curiosity.
Saying little when they ventured into town to buy groceries
or mail letters, the Russian Orthodox monks were a seeming
ly peaceful sort who lived on a nearby hilltop and welcomed
outsiders who came to view a weeping icon of the Virgin Mary.
Lately, though, the monastery’s quiet world of worship has
been shaken and its relationship with Blanco townspeople
strained by an alleged sex scandal involving two monks.
“It is, of course, sad. But we know everything is in God’s
hands. He permits persecution and things to befall us as he
sees fit,” said Father Pangratios, a spokesman for the
monastery.
Samuel A. Greene Jr., 54, known as Father Benedict, and
Jonathan Hitt, 37, known as Father Jeremiah, each have been
charged with three counts of indecency with a child alleged
ly involving a f 7-year-old male religious student who lived at
Christ of the Hills in the summer of 1997.
The monks will be arraigned Wednesday in Johnson City
before state District Judge Gilford Jones, who has issued a gag
order in the case. Little has been publicly disclosed about the
victim or the details surrounding the accusations.
