Midtown's homey eatery, about 30 years old, has always been a gathering place for people wanting a healthy meal and healthy conversation.

Seale man gets life in prison

“He committed these crimes, and he needs to answer for each and every one of them”

Jeffery Hall's victim said Wednesday was the first time he ever apologized to her.

Prosecutors standing close to Hall during his sentencing on convictions of sexual torture and first-degree sodomy didn't hear Hall, 49, say he was sorry, but he did mumble something, said Assistant District Attorney Max Smith.

His words or mouthings, whatever they were, came before Russell County Circuit Court Judge George Greene sentenced Hall to life in prison, followed by 25 years incarceration, and a $25 fine for contempt of court. Read more

Seale man guilty in sex case

“He tried to justify the things he said in the video. He did not want to answer the questions.”

It took a Russell County jury less than three hours to convict Jeffery Hall of the sexual torture and first-degree sodomy of a woman he knew.

Hall, 49, of Seale now awaits sentencing by Circuit Court Judge George Greene for crimes that could net him 10 years to life in prison.

Prosecutors had accused Hall of forcing himself on the woman.

'Our main piece of evidence was a videotape that depicts these things taking place,' said Assistant District Attorney David Johnson. 'He still has some pending charges.' Read more

Businesses adjust to drought

“It's saving water. It's helping the environment”

With a number of Georgia counties -- including Muscogee, Harris and Troup -- facing a water crisis, area companies are feeling the impact, especially if water plays a significant role in their business.

For some, the drought has ushered in more business. Others say the water crisis has had minimal effects for now. The drought is keeping Heath Davis and his crew busy at his Seale-Ala.-based well drilling company. Davis, co-owner of family-owned Davis Well Company, said business has 'picked up tremendously' during what is normally considered the company's slow season. Read more

First, Stephen Keith Taylor's 2004 Kawasaki motorcycle was struck by a deer as he rode along U.S. Highway 431 South in Seale on Sunday night.

Minutes later, after he apparently refused help from a passer-by, Taylor was run over and killed by a pickup truck.

Taylor, 55, of Pittsview, Ala., was struck by the deer just before he was run over about 8:56 p.m. by a 1984 Dodge pickup truck driven by Michael Frank Stuckey, 64, Panama City, Fla., according to the Opelika Post, Alabama State Troopers. The accident took place about 15 miles south of Phenix City. Read more
