In Historical Marker Fight, Edenton Revisits a Painful Era

For years, Lew Powell has wanted the state to force a reckoning and install a historic marker near the former Little Rascals Day Care Center in Edenton. That’s the spot that in 1989 launched a spate of child abuse accusations and prosecutions of seven people who came to be known as the Edenton Seven. The case grabbed headlines in national publications such as the New York Times and Elle magazine. Powell and others who support the Edenton Seven compare their prosecutions to the famed Salem witch hunt hysteria in the late 17th century.

ECU Health community hospitals show a profit in FY 26

ECU Health’s community hospital system operated at a profit in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, but officials say there are storm clouds on the horizon that could negatively impact future finances. In a report to the ECU Health Community Hospital Board of Directors on Oct. 27, system leaders reported a $69.9 million operating profit for the year for the eight hospitals operating in Washington, Windsor, Tarboro, Roanoke Rapids, Nags Head, Kenansville, Edenton and Ahoskie. Revenues were ahead of budget expectations by about $28 million. Expenses were also higher than budgeted, but only by about $3.9 million. The difference allowed the hospital to record the operating surplus. System leaders were projecting $43.1 million in operating income, but that number came in at $69.9 million. Dr. Michael Waldrum, CEO of ECU Health and board chair of the community hospitals board of directors, notes that coming changes will have a significant impact on future financial reports. “Ending the fiscal year in a positive light, I think, is important.
