2B Fort Myers News-Press, Tuesday, April 16, 1985 Prosecutor: Evidence will show deputy present at pot drop By BARBARA JOHNSON News-Press Staff Writer shows he set up the roadblock at 9:08 p.m. the exact moment Moss testified she and Joy Carter were placing the 13-minute telephone call. However, Day said Joy Carter was at the roadblock at about 9:09 p.m. Blackwell, who described the case as a "discrepancy between a (sheriffs department) radio log and telephone toll records," has been challenging the witnesses on their recollections about the precise times of the night's events. drove to the Moss' home, stayed for several minutes and drove off.

One pilot said he followed the car for about five minutes until he saw it stopped at a police roadblock, which by that time was in place on Corkscrew Road. Collier County deputy Larry Day said he stopped two vehicles at the roadblock: a car driven by Joy Carter and a four-wheel drive vehicle driven by Charles Connolly, who also lives in Corkscrew. Day said the radio dispatch log at the Collier sheriff's department call to the Lee County Sheriff's Department logged on the Moss' telephone toll records at 9:08 p.m. on That's the night a plane loaded with 800 pounds of marijuana landed on a grassy airstrip off Corkscrew Road near her home. Moss told the federal juries that she made the telephone call from her home to alert deputies to suspicious planes and activity in the area.

With her while she made the call, Moss also told the federal juries, was her friend, Joy Carter. Carter and her husband, former FBI agent J.R. "Buddy" Carter, were among the four convicted of smuggling in the case. Zimmerman said he will present evidence that the 13-minute telephone call was not made at Moss' home at all. Zimmerman said there was an extension of the Moss' phone several miles away in the Corkscrew Country Store on the edge of the airstrip.

Zimmerman said the call was placed from the store by the high-ranking deputy. He didn't elaborate further on the call. When the trial adjourned for the day, neither Debra nor Danny Moss would comment on the prosecutor's allegations. Blackwell said this was the first he heard of allegations that the call in question was made by a sheriff's deputy. "I don't know.

I'm as surprised as you," Blackwell said. Testimony in the case began at 2:30 p.m. after 12 jurors and two alternates, none from Fort Myers or Naples, were selected. Two pilots from U.S. Customs, who followed the marijuana-laden plane to the airstrip, testified the plane landed at about 8:30 p.m.

Both said they watched from the sky as a car parked at the landing strip then the smuggling operation in Corkscrew. The News-Press reported last year that federal agents have at least one witness who places Wilson at the scene. Wilson has denied being there. In a preview of the defense case, lawyer William Blackwell of Naples told the jury that one month after the 1 98 1 smuggling incident, Debra Moss was diagnosed as having encephalitis, which he described as a brain disease that can cause amnesia. Blackwell said he hopes to have a Naples neurologist fly to Tampa to testify about her mental state.

Moss, who lives in Corkscrew, is accused of lying to a federal grand jury which investigated the 1981 drug smuggling incident and to a federal trial jury which convicted four of her friends and neighbors. The charges center on her testimony about a 13-minute telephone TAMPA A federal prosecutor says he will present evidence this week that a high-ranking Lee County sheriff's deputy was at the scene of a marijuana drop in 1981 in the rural Corkscrew area southeast of Fort Myers. Assistant U.S. Attorney Warren Zimmerman made the statement Monday morning at the opening of the perjury and obstruction of justice trial of Debra Moss, wife of former special deputy Danny Moss. Zimmerman didn't name the high-ranking deputy in court and wouldn't comment during a recess in the trial.

If the council accepts the task force's findings and concludes the bridge is possible and necessary, the next major step will Involve hiring an engineering firm to prepare plans regarding where the bridge would be located and how it would be built. Although the time it should take the task force to complete its job was not discussed at the meeting, Zas-lovsky has said he expects its job to be done in about one month.

Councilman Tony Rotino's request that two citizens, Jim Barton and Fred Zander, be added to the task force was rejected by the council after Powell said adding two more members probably would slow things down. build where land is inexpensive. Mayor Joe Mazurkiewicz also opposed the law. He said smaller rental units are important to the young and old. "We've limited the moderate rental property," he said.

Small units still can be built on the Cape. Efficiency apartments, which can be 650 square feet, can be built in attached groups of seven or more. Mazurkiewicz said the law opens the door for large developers while taking away an investment for the small builder. limit the number of people on the Cape, ensuring sufficient water and sewer service in the future. But builders say the new law will not keep people out of the city who want to build inexpensive housing.

They say many builders are looking toward northern Cape Coral, where the land is less expensive than in the southern half, and are building legal, but small, single-family homes. Walter Barletta, president of the Cape Coral Construction Industry Association, said Cape officials are promoting uncontrolled growth throughout the city by forcing builders to LOOKING FOR A HOME FOR YOUR BOAT?
