I found an assault charge against her and mentioned it a few days ago but didn't see all those others.

Found old article this too-

The Gazette (Cedar Rapids-Iowa City)

September 29, 1996 Section: A Edition: Final Page: 1

Citizen soldiers in drug war Wellington Heights group plugs away, but some neighborhood residents feel efforts are misguided

Rick Smith Gazette staff writer

The vicinity of Bever Avenue and 15th Street SE comes with a reputation born of alleged crack dealing and Cedar Rapids' most recent ganglike shooting. The spot's reputation is as old as the decade. It endures despite a several-year war on drugs that today finds a heavy presence of police in the area almost every night.

Few parts of the city have made their way into print as often as this stretch of the Wellington Heights neighborhood in southeast Cedar Rapids.

Here we are again.

In recent weeks, it is near here that the city's boldest neighborhood watch effort - which rivals a good police surveillance operation - has focused its stare.

Binocular duty from nearby porches. Lists of license plates from suspicious cars. Computer checks of plate numbers. Mailings to some of the car owners. "Under surveillance" signs on utility poles. Reports to police.

Now neighborhood activists have taken to 15th Street, hoping to clean up, to catch attention. They want to push out a sizable group of young men, suspected drug dealers, who congregate at a house next to an alley where the gang-style shooting took place last month.

"We got no problem with people who are just hanging," says Dale Todd, president of the Wellington Heights Neighborhood Association, "but when we observe people stopping traffic, doing drug deals. These are not a bunch of Boy Scouts."

Todd's words have a familiar ring, and he concedes as much.

However, he says, this isn't a return to square one. It doesn't mean the war on drugs has failed.

"We can point to some success stories where we've closed down some drug operations, where the level of peace has been restored" Todd says, "but right now, things aren't getting better."

His is a cautionary note. More out-of-town, big-city people are in the neighborhood than ever before, he says. They are more organized, more assimilated and more alluring to disaffected local youths than in the past.

"There's been a radical increase from a year ago," he says. "Now they are one with the community."

A different view Todd's warning falls on deaf ears at 373 15th St. SE, one of the neighborhood watch's central focuses these days.

One person's gang, say those on the porch, is another person's family.

Ella Doss, the renter here, is a friendly 29-year-old with a unique distinction: She is Cedar Rapids' first victim of a drive-by shooting. She was shot through the eye in 1990.

Last month, her current porch gained notoriety when a 19-year-old man, a New York City native, was gunned down in the alley outside. He ran up and collapsed on Doss' porch. She provided the first help, using her fingers to compress the wound until rescue workers arrived. Her friends credit her with saving a life.

Todd calls the shooting a gang shooting. Police say it was between two groups. Doss, her 34-year-old friend Dawnella Wilson and a group of young men here say only that it's not that complicated to figure out. Somebody owed somebody money, they say.

To Doss and Wilson, it is no surprise that the porch and house are being watched. By police patrols. By neighborhood association observers.

Let them watch, Doss says.

She says she is breaking no laws but only raising her child, watching television and minding her own business. She says she has no control over her place being a gathering spot.

"They're not bothering me, and I'm not bothering them," Doss says. "I don't pay any attention to what they're doing. I don't get in their business."

Doss and Wilson say police, Todd and other neighborhood watchers don't know what they are seeing. What they should be seeing, Doss and Wilson say, is a "family" of young men - some locals and many from Chicago and other places - who have come to Cedar Rapids to avoid being shot on the streets back home.

Most don't work. No one here will hire them, the women say. Many flop here and there without permanent addresses. Suspicious-looking traffic is friends visiting, they add.

They have this advice for police and neighbors: Spend less time watching and more time helping.

"Instead of watching us from the house across the street, why don't they put a couple pool tables in there and give these kids something to do," Wilson says.

Neighbors watching The view is different from nearby porches, such as Angie Shultz's, up the street from Doss' place.

A little after 5 p.m., white-collar workers quickly stop and go at the stop sign outside, scurrying to more upscale neighborhoods to the east.

The workday rush subsides, and a new traffic pattern begins, just across Bever from Shultz's and halfway down the block, in the vicinity of 373 15th St. SE and in the alley outside.

Cars pull up, stop, idle. People converse. The cars drive off. In an hour, 25 cars come and go.

Police cars cruise by a dozen times in that hour. Cops on bikes come and go.

Shultz, Todd and others in the neighborhood have been looking on for weeks. What they see is a large group of young adults, hanging out, not working, organized. To the neighbors, coming and going is a sure sign of drug dealing. "It doesn't take being nosy to see this," Shultz says. "It's obvious, and we don't want the guns, and we don't want the bullets, and we don't want the gangs."

Russ Oviatt, who spearheads the neighborhood association's surveillance effort, thought he had left the binoculars behind after serving as an Army intelligence officer in Vietnam 25 years ago. The binoculars are back, being used against a different enemy. Cars pulling up at suspected drug houses are recorded, compared with lists of cars from other suspicious houses.

"All we want is a peaceful, wholesome environment for the kids, middle-age families and those who want to retire here," Oviatt says. "That's not too much to ask."

Seeking solutions On Saturday, Shultz, Oviatt, Todd and a dozen other neighborhood association members went on the offensive. They planted grass in the front yard at Doss' residence, where all the activity had worn the small plot of grass bare. Last night, the neighbors staged a candlelight sit-in along 15th Street SE.

For their part, Doss and friend Wilson, who lives down the block, say they aren't going to be forced out of the neighborhood, and they aren't going to stop befriending people just because they are from out of town and out of work.

"Somebody has to stand up for them," says Wilson.

On one point she and the neighborhood association agree: Many of the people coming into the neighborhood to purchase illegal drugs are from other parts of Cedar Rapids and even from small Eastern Iowa towns.

The neighborhood association's license plate checks show the same is true.

"All these people ... can run down to the poor people's neighborhood and then go back to a rich man's high," Wilson says.

The solution will take more than locking more Chicagoans up in Cedar Rapids, she says.

"These kids aren't as violent and hateful as everybody thinks they are," she says. "They came here to get away from trouble."

Shultz was raking Saturday, readying to plant grass, saying she sympathizes with the young men she is convinced are dealing drugs and hanging with gangs. "I feel sorry for them because they don't realize that (there are) other ways for everybody. The opportunities are out there. All you have to do is take them."

The association's Todd insists no place is more willing to welcome people than Wellington Heights, as long as people obey the law.

That's not happening near Doss' house, he says.

Todd credits city leaders for undertaking a push to inspect properties and to prod owners of substandard properties to fix their places.

Todd acknowledges, too, that the police presence in the neighborhood is as visible as ever.

He says more needs to be done.

He says police need to make more and quicker arrests, and the city needs to develop a comprehensive anti-gang strategy.

"The city is facing a serious threat and not dealing with it effectively. Until this city decides that crime and gangs are not just a Wellington Heights problem but a communitywide problem, then the current situation will only deteriorate." Illustration: COLOR PHOTO

The house is a central focus of neighborhood watch efforts. The association planted grass in the front yard because activity at the house had worn the small plot bare. The association also posted signs warning drug dealers that they are being monitored.
