Indictment Unsealed in Child Sexual Abuse Case
Written By Editor on 8/19/23 | 8/19/23
DELHI - Delaware County Acting District Attorney Shawn J. Smith announced that John Macrabie, 26, of Walton, New York appeared for arraignment on a four-count indictment in Delaware County Court.
Counts One and Two of the Indictment accuses the defendant of Endangering the Welfare of a Child, each Class A Misdemeanors. Count Three of the Indictment accuses the defendant of Disseminating Indecent Material to Minors in the First Degree, a Class D sexually motivated felony. Count Four of the indictment accuses the defendant of Criminal Sexual Act in the Third Degree, a Class E Felony.
The defendant is alleged to have sent the child naked pictures of himself on a social media account in an effort to engage in oral sexual conduct with her. The defendant later engaged in oral sexual conduct with that child, while in the presence of a 2-year-old child.
The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charges, and the Hon. Gary A. Rosa released the defendant to the supervision of the Delaware County Probation Department under non-monetary terms and conditions.
The case is scheduled for a conference on September 5 at 9:00 A.M.
Acting District Attorney Smith commended Sergeant Tyler McAteer of the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office for his thorough investigation into this case. Smith also thanked Cassandra Spatafora, a victim’s advocate from Safe Against Violence, for her supportive assistance in guiding the child victim throughout the legal process.
As are all persons accused of a crime, the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

TRIAL SUBSCRIPTIONS AT SPECIAL COBLESKILL COVERAGE RATE
Opinion: Careless Mayor Botches Budget, Time to Audit Books
Written By Editor on 8/18/23 | 8/18/23
By Matthew Avitabile
Several weeks back I wrote something to the effect that I would hold off on writing an extensive opinion on the Cobleskill Police Department situation. There’s still a lot more to write, of course, but we’ll start here. Below is my opinion based on primary sources.
In our July 28th edition I wrote a front-page article in the Cobleskill Herald regarding the current Village of Cobleskill/Cobleskill Police Department budget. It’s a topic near and dear to my heart. Doing the municipal budget was likely my favorite part of eight years as mayor and six years as trustee in Middleburgh. I’m still not sure why I liked it so much, but I was good at it. Nine of those thirteen years saw me take on primary responsibility for those budgets. They were all balanced and they were all under the tax cap. They came with significant increases in the Middleburgh Fire Department’s budget and improvements for local events and parks. Our taxpayers didn’t get soaked.
During Tuesday’s Village of Cobleskill meeting, Mayor Becky Stanton-Terk dismissed the article as if it was false, saying that the information wasn’t corroborated.
To quote from the meeting, the mayor said, “They did not get any information to back that up. So or you to claim that that is accurate because you read it in the paper, I will totally disagree.”
She also used the word “misinformation” to describe press coverage.
We should know that it’s not quite true. Not quite true statements are a politician’s dream. Fitting for one of the few local elected officials who treat the job more as a politician seeking a political ladder rather than a local public servant.
So, were my numbers corroborated? Let’s take a look directly at the Village of Cobleskill’s Annual Update Document (AUD), which is the yearly summary of its budget situation. Does it agree with what I wrote? Here’s a photo of it.
And how about the tax situation? Were those numbers manipulated or misunderstood by our paper? Well, take a look at the village’s own budget and see if it is inaccurate:
Or perhaps the argument is that the village’s reserve fund balance is not too high? Again, I have the experience of understanding the state Comptroller’s Office recommendations. If you look at a Comptroller’s audit from June (double check our sources here: https://www.osc.state.ny.us/local-government/audits/school-district/2023/06/09/olean-city-school-district-reserve-funds-2022m-187), the office wrote about the Olean City School District made a critical error holding so much in reserve funds without justification.
To quote directly:
“The Board and District officials properly established the District’s nine general fund reserve funds totaling $10.9 million but did not use the reserve funds and could not demonstrate that approximately $8 million held in seven of these reserves was reasonable or needed.”
“In addition, the Board and District officials did not:
“Adopt a comprehensive written reserve fund policy or transparently fund reserves.
“Take appropriate action to address overfunded reserves.
“Funding reserves at levels higher than necessary for operations and/or need creates an undue burden on taxpayers and withholds funds that may have been used in a more beneficial way.”
Perhaps a school district’s audit is too vague? Let’s take a look at the Comptroller’s Office official recommendations (double-check our sources, page 13 here: https://www.osc.state.ny.us/files/local-government/publications/pdf/reserve-funds.pdf)
“When preparing a tentative budget, if the current balance of the contingency and tax stabilization fund exceeds 10 percent of the eligible portion of the annual budget for the current fiscal year, any excess must be used to reduce the amount of real property taxes needed to finance the eligible portion of the annual budget for the next fiscal year.”
The current reserve for the Village of Cobleskill is about 50%. I understand that by massaging the budget, this may be a few percentage points different, depending on your point of view. However, it’s certainly not five times different.
The requirement is clear— this money should be returned to the people through a tax cut or spent responsibly. Since the current mayor inherited a very good budget situation from previous Mayor Linda Holmes, this should have already been done.
Just to make sure that this information isn’t lost in the wind, we’re doing three special things. First, we’re going to republish the entire article below so you can double-check and see if we were wrong. We welcome open examination.
The last audit for the Village of Cobleskill was released in January 2020 and pushed hard by Mayor Stanton-Terk. For all of the complaints about hours used by former Clerk-Treasurer Samantha Moyster, the financial carelessness expressed both by the CPD disaster and the too-large fund balance is a recipe for a fiscal nightmare.
It’s well past time for another audit.
The mayor’s comments sparked us to be in a giving mood, and we will be gifting the State Comptroller’s Office, Division of Local Government and School Accountability a complimentary subscription to our paper.
Lastly, we will also begin a formal investigation into the collapse of the Cobleskill Police Department. Just as the situation with Dr. Amy Gildemeister was incorrectly reported by the Times Journal earlier this year, we’re here to set the record straight. We uncovered $150,000 in alleged fraud in Delaware County in the spring and would be happy to collect more information to get the whole story. Got a tip? Call or text my cell at 518-763-6854 or email us at cobleskillherald@gmail.com.
Unfortunately the mayor chose to double down on misleading statements. The information about the budget was misleading and the comments at the meeting were dismissive and incorrect. Fortunately, I know much more about municipal budgets and how the village’s budget is not being used to help the people the mayor represents.
Please find the original article below, unedited.
Mayor Digs In After CPD Resignations
A Closer Look at Cobleskill’s Budget Situation
By Matthew Avitabile
COBLESKILL — We reviewed the mayor's statements that 83% of the village's annual general tax levy goes to the police budget.
Forgive the math, but here is some context. Local government budgets are derived from multiple sources, often with the largest chunk coming from the municipal tax levy (local property tax).
The Village of Cobleskill's 2023 general fund budget is $3,574,080 total, with $1,888,503, or about half, coming from local property taxes. The general fund is generally everything but water and sewer, which are funded largely through usage rents.
The mayor is correct that the salaries for the officers represent a significant portion of that, with almost $940,000 budgeted for 2023 alone. The police budget, including non-personnel expenses, does represent more than half of the total village taxes.
In addition, there are a number of other direct costs tied to the police department, including liability insurance, health insurance, and retirement costs. They’re not parted out in the budget specifically, but it is not unreasonable to believe that they represent about the percentage of the tax levy the mayor stated.
However, that’s only a part of the story. The little more than $1 million in the police budget represents less than a third of the overall budget, not 83%. The mayor did not claim that the police budget was 83% of the total, but for those not familiar with municipal budgeting, it would seem as if the vast majority of property taxes were forked over to the police. That's not the case.
There are other questions for future articles, including the fact that nearly half of Cobleskill's land value— 47.4% to be exact— is exempt from taxation, usually due to use by non-profits. Right now the village taxes on the $155,912,979 that is eligible for full valuation, while a little more than $140 million is partially or totally exempt.
The police budget has also grown in recent years, with personnel costs increasing from about $918,000 in 2019 to almost $940,000 in 2023. This is a 2.5% increase overall.
However, what was not explained effectively at the last meeting is that the village government had cut back its police personnel budget from 2019 (about $918,000) to 2020 ($903,000) to 2021 ($880,000) to 2022 ($903,000).
Increases to the police budget have been a major portion of the village's government for years and represent a major factor in the budget's overall growth. There are two crucial elements to consider.
Number one is that while the funding for police wages has increased by 2.5% in four years, the overall general fund has increased from $2.968 million in 2019 to $3.574 million in 2023, a 20.4% increase. Proportionally, police spending has not kept up with the remainder of the budget.
In addition, the village has increased its fund balance (the amount left over at the end of each year) from $1.583 million in 2019 to $1.973 million in 2023. A large majority of that is "unassigned," meaning that it could be used for any purpose, including the police. the village of Cobleskill now has a fund balance of more than half of its operating budget, which the State Comptroller's Office recommends against. The state often recommends that municipalities either spend the money or lower taxes.
A closer look at the budget shows that there was a possibility for a compromise, at least as far as numbers are concerned. We will continue our research in the coming weeks and months.

New to Investing? Here’s What You Need to Know
Understanding the basics of investing is an essential first step toward building a strong financial foundation, but many people don’t know where to get started. Here are five concepts that can be helpful for new investors to grasp:
If you are young, time is on your side
Building wealth through investing is not about getting rich quickly. Rather, it’s about taking advantage of what works best for your circumstances. If you have recently entered the workforce, your biggest advantage is time. Earnings generated in your portfolio, even if modest in the beginning, can compound over time. The more time you give your money to grow, the greater the potential for growth over the long haul.
Be prepared for market swings
Any variable investment you choose – such as stocks, bonds or real estate – is subject to fluctuation. History shows that markets move up and down over time. Be prepared to see your portfolio suffer losses at various points throughout your investing life. Historically, markets have recovered from negative periods (although in some circumstances, individual investments such as a specific stock can suffer losses and never recover). Try to maintain a long-term view with your investments by not reacting to day-to-day events.
Find your comfort level in the markets
Markets are unpredictable, so it’s important that you’re intentional about the level of risk you’re willing to accept. If you have a lower risk tolerance, you can choose investments that are less susceptible to fluctuations but be sure to consider the effects of inflation eating into your rate of return. On the other hand, if you have a higher risk tolerance and you can stomach watching your portfolio fluctuate more widely in value, you may want to pursue investments that offer potentially higher returns.
But remember, there are no guarantees. The key is to find a level of risk you can live with over the long-term and invest accordingly.
Spread your wealth through asset allocation
Asset allocation is the process of spreading your investment dollars across several categories of investments. The mix of categories, or asset classes, you own is an important factor in your overall portfolio performance. In other words, how you divide your money between stocks, bonds, cash, cash alternatives, mutual funds, and other asset classes will determine the outcome, and hopefully return, you realize.
As you select your investments, consider dividing your money among asset classes that respond differently to market forces. This investment concept, called diversification, can help you minimize the effect of market swings. If your investments in one class are performing poorly, investments in another class may be performing better. Ideally, gains in one class can help offset losses in another, which can help minimize the overall impact of volatility on your portfolio.
Make your long-term financial security a priority
It can be challenging to focus on the long-term when you have other pressing financial obligations, such as paying off student loans or building an emergency fund. However, if you can allocate a small portion of your budget to your future goals, you may ease your financial burden down the road. Consider investing a percentage of each paycheck into a workplace retirement plan or an individual retirement account (IRA). You’ll become accustomed to living within the rest of your paycheck while the amount you have earmarked for retirement is given time to grow. If your company offers a match on those savings, be sure to take advantage of it.
A successful investor maximizes gain and minimizes loss. Though there can be no guarantee that any investment strategy will be effective, and all investing involves risk, these basic principles can help you strategically build your nest egg over time.

SUNY Delhi Partners with DCEC for Line-Worker Training Program
Schumer Seeks $1.4 Million in Funding
DELHI — As U.S. Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer announced his support yesterday to seek over $1.4 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Labor's Workforce Opportunity for Rural Communities (WORC) initiative for a line-worker training program by the Delaware County Electric Cooperative (DCEC), SUNY Delhi prepares to lead the charge in educating highly qualified utility operations workers to help address workforce needs.
The proposed program, officially titled "Building a Skilled Workforce to Construct and Maintain Core Critical Electric and Broadband Infrastructure," would train at least 200 workers for well-paying jobs to maintain and modernize critical electric and telecommunications infrastructure in rural areas. The proposal will build on existing efforts to meet current and future workforce demand in both the electric and telecommunications industries, such as SUNY Delhi's two-year electrical construction and utility operations degree program.
"SUNY Delhi plays an important role in educating leaders for the workforce of tomorrow," said Dr. Mary Bonderoff, Acting President of SUNY Delhi. "This partnership with DCEC enhances our capacity to deliver education, training, and the continuing education needs of New York's utility and electrical operations workforce. As demands on New York's electrical grid and infrastructure grow, it will be SUNY Delhi graduates that lead the way to see that these demands are met. SUNY Delhi is grateful to Senator Schumer for his leadership in advancing workforce development efforts that will support the region's economic growth."
About SUNY Delhi's Electrical Construction and Utility Operations program
SUNY Delhi's AAS and AOS programs in Electrical Construction and Utility Operations focus on hands-on skills training in both residential and commercial wiring systems, overhead and underground utility installations, pole-climbing techniques, current construction standards and practices, as well as critical safety standards and risk aversion. With an apprenticeship approach, students learn from expert instructors with years of experience in the industry. Graduates of the program have 100% job placement in the industry with higher than average entry-level salaries. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, utility workers enjoy an average salary of over $65,000/year with opportunities for quick advancement and promotion.
