He said one conflict has been physicians who work with other hospitals and have been sending Glades patients there Doncaster said this has led to an issue with physician availability at Lakeside Medical Center an issue he plans to address "aggressively" but "collaboratively." "We want the folks that we are contracted with to practice here and keep the patients here," said Doncaster "Everybody needs the opportunity for great access." He said they are working to restructure physician contracts in efforts to solve the number of days they're at Lakeside Medical Center but also ways to make their positions more competitive than other hospitals The partnership with TGH will provide staff and patients Lakeside Medical Center with a large network of resources They're analyzing data of patients that visit Lakeside Medical Center but are sent to other locations what other markets are outsourcing resources and what services they can expand on to make Lakeside Medical Center a one stop shop of medical care for the Glades communities "Competitiveness in this and this effort comes second what we're thinking about first is what do they need and how do we get it here," said Doncaster "I think that will naturally make us competitive but the first thing we're focused on is how do we get them what they need." The top three services they're planning on introducing and improving are neurology "We have state of the art imaging equipment we have a full-scale lab right here we have a great pharmacy on site we have everything we need to do most things," said Doncaster "And so to bring those together for the community in one place I think it's going to make a really powerful impact.'

Update my browser now × Tiara Black walked out of the Henrico County Courthouse a free woman on Wednesday after beating a criminal arson charge that sought to blame her for the fire that last year shuttered her restaurant who also owns diner Eat 66 in Stratford Hills bought the restaurant at 5404 Lakeside Ave in October 2023 when it was known as Carytown Burgers & Fries But it burned down just a few months later when the fire was pinned on Shelby Castaneda Black’s longtime friend and manager at Eat 66 Both were arrested on charges of arson and conspiracy to commit arson when Black herself was charged with crimes related to the incident In hitting Black with felony counts of arson and obtaining money by false pretenses the prosecution alleged that the Lakeside burger joint was underwater financially leading Black to allegedly conspire with the Castanedas to torch the business and recoup insurance money But after a two-day trial this week that featured the Castanedas as witnesses a jury found Black not guilty on all counts The Castanedas said in court that they received no plea deal for testifying in the case and that they were promised nothing by the prosecution They each said on the stand they hoped that by testifying they might receive a lighter sentence during their case which has a hearing scheduled for next month The trial highlighted the dissolution of a once-sisterly friendship between Castaneda and Black a falling-out that the case claimed led to Shelby teaming with her brother to burn down Black’s restaurant Shelby Castaneda and Black met about 10 years ago through the restaurant industry and became close friends said at the trial that her daughter was so close with Black that Black had spent holidays with the Castanedas “I loved (Black) because of how much my daughter loved her,” Shaffer said and when Black added the Lakeside outpost of Carytown Burgers & Fries to her portfolio in 2023 The Carytown Burgers & Fries chain had been owned by Mike Barber for nearly 25 years, until 2023 when Barber sold both the original Carytown and Lakeside locations Black bought the Lakeside location in a deal that included a clause requiring her to change the name. Under Black’s ownership it became known as Lakeside Burgers & Fries. The Carytown location sold to different ownership and, in an odd twist, also caught fire in early 2024 That location remains closed and no criminal charges have been filed related to that incident The now-closed restaurant pictured this week It was after Black’s acquisition of the Lakeside location that her friendship with Castenda began to fracture Black testified that Castaneda’s work ethic began slipping and she began showing up late Black said that a few days before the fire she moved to terminate Castaneda but wound up only demoting her A few other employees at Eat 66 testified that Castaneda had begun airing frustrations at work bemoaning her long hours and a lack of credit for the restaurant’s success led by Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Dylan McAuley claimed that shortly after Black assumed ownership of Lakeside Burger & Fries the business began losing thousands of dollars per month Black had to fire much of the existing staff A visit from the health inspector in January 2024 left the restaurant facing closure because of issues with the flooring Castaneda testified that a few days before the fire she’d been talking to Black who allegedly said things were going so poorly at Lakeside Burgers & Fries that she just needed someone to burn down the restaurant Castaneda said she thought Black was joking and suggested that her brother Jordan could help with some handiwork at the restaurant to get it up to code The next day Shelby allegedly organized a meeting with Jordan and Black at Eat 66 at which the Castanedas claim Black hired Jordan to burn down the restaurant and “make it look like vandalism.” Jordan testified that Black paid him $1,000 up front and told him he’d receive an additional $9,000 once the deed was done Black denied that she ever said or suggested that she wanted the restaurant burned or that she ever instructed Jordan to burn it She claimed that the restaurant was flourishing and profitable at the time of the fire Jordan allegedly went to Lakeside Burgers & Fries tossed gasoline-filled jugs into the restaurant through an open window in the rear and ignited the fuel with a road flare Prosecutors claim he then ran around to the front of the building and spray-painted it before fleeing the scene on a scooter Black said that on the morning after the fire she wasn’t suspicious of the Castanedas’ involvement and told the fire marshals on the scene as much Shelby attended Black’s birthday party at Maggiano’s in Short Pump Shelby and Jordan Castaneda (Henrico Fire social media / BizSense graphic) Black filed an insurance claim and collected over $200,000 in insurance proceeds The prosecution presented bank records that allegedly showed Black spent nearly all that money on trips to Miami Black claimed there were no conditions in her policy on how she could spend the insurance money The prosecution pointed to other paper trails that allegedly tied Black to the fire They claimed records show that even though Black had supposedly demoted Shelby before the fire and that Black paid her the highest lump sum she’d ever paid her the day Black allegedly met with Jordan McAuley said that Black was facing unexpected expensive roadblocks with the restaurant and that she wanted out He claimed Black paid Jordan to burn the restaurant for her He said the same day the health inspector gave Lakeside Burgers & Fries 10 days to get up to code Black reinstated her business insurance policy which had lapsed for months after she bought the restaurant noting that Black is a felon from a previous crime involving lying He argued that Shelby had no reason to set fire to the restaurant “Why would (the Castanedas) come and confess to arson knowing they have a chance to go to prison or jail?” McAuley argued arguing that the prosecution mischaracterized the business’ books and that to convict Black the jury would have to believe the testimony of the Castanedas Shelby was once convicted of felony embezzlement and Jordan has been convicted of a handful of petty larceny charges dating to 2011 Villalon said that to accept the Castanedas claims would be ridiculous and the siblings believe their testimony will get them a “better sentence when they go down.” “At the heart of this case is a credibility context,” he said Villalon also said it was inaccurate to frame Black as a business owner desperate to get out of a bad deal “(Black would) not destroy her whole life for the amount of money that was paid out,” he said The jury deliberated about 90 minutes on Wednesday before reaching a verdict read the words “not-guilty,” Black fell into tears before being embraced by friends and family in the gallery Villalon said his client is “grateful for the decision the jury made and that they heard her when she decided to give her side of the story.” It’s unclear whether Black will look to ever reopen Lakeside Burgers & Fries Eat 66 remains open for business under Black’s ownership a hearing for the Castanedas’ criminal case is scheduled for February When asked by the prosecution what they’ve gotten out of the whole ordeal Sounds like something from a TV show or movie that’s wild she was found not guilty Seems pretty obvious she paid them to burn the place down maybe she decided that owning multiple restaurants wasn’t for her and some of it was “found money” for the trips and spa visits And crypto is a pretty good investment right now It sure seems fishy but it was enough for a jury to acquit so clearly there were more pieces to the puzzle than a short article can give us Those burgers were sub-par anyway…will not be missed Really dude,you can tell the difference in burgers Surprised the insurance is/has not come back for the money your are felon with a previous conviction involving some type of fraud or lying and you let your insurance policy lap but reinstated it just before the place burns down And in civil courts the standard is lower than criminal Prosecution has to establish guilt beyond a reasonable doubt Who knows if she did it but there’s a whole lotta doubt there She bought it in October and it burned in February – not shocking that if the insurance lapsed on an existing business you bought you would renew it in a 4 month window and renewing after a bad inspection report would be a good decision I’m not a lawyer but I have watched several Law and Order marathons so I feel I’m qualified to address this the lesson in this story if you’re facing prosecution always go for the jury trial as opposed to a bench trial Jury trials tend to be more linint in Richmond area DULUTH — Federal immigration officials arrested members of a roofing crew working in the city’s Lakeside neighborhood this week Five people were apparently detained by U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents citing a family member of a roofer in the company Perez is organizing director for Communities Organizing Latine Power and Action which is part of the newly formed Immigrant Defense Network that launched amid President Donald Trump’s vow to carry out mass deportations It wasn’t immediately clear why the roofers were targeted for arrest “Due to our operational tempo and the increased interest in our agency we are not able to research and respond to specifics of routine daily operations for ICE,” regional spokesperson Alethea Smock wrote in response to a News Tribune inquiry The Duluth Police Department said it was not informed of the enforcement action and did not take part in it “DPD’s public safety response remains the same,” Chief Mike Ceynowa said in a statement “Our main priority has been and always will be the safety and security of our community We weren’t involved in any immigration incidents and weren’t informed of actions occurring in our community.” stressed that the city is not responsible for immigration issues “We have multiple levels of government in the United States and each is charged with different responsibilities,” he said our city staff continue to be focused on core city services: streets Local government is not responsible for immigration enforcement.” Trump has vowed to carry out the largest mass deportation in U.S history during his second term — at times suggesting he wants to deport every person in the country illegally That figure was estimated to be 11 million by the U.S DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said Wednesday that the agency made more than 20,000 arrests in Trump’s first month — a 627% increase compared to last year’s pace The administration also has reversed policies that prohibited raids at
