Williamsport man convicted of 'wasp dope' county prison smuggle scheme

Williamsport, Pa. — A Williamsport man has been convicted of trying to have drugs smuggled into the Lycoming County Prison by mail. Authorities said Tyree Tyquan Moy, 41, sent a letter to his son instructing him to soak the paper in wasp spray so it could be mailed back into the prison. Inmates would then use the treated paper — a substance commonly known inside prisons as "wasp dope" — to get high. Moy stressed in the letter that his wife, the child’s mother, should not find it. She did. She turned the letter over to prison authorities, leading to the charges. Moy pleaded no contest to a first-degree misdemeanor of criminal attempt of bringing contraband into the prison and a first-degree misdemeanor of criminal solicitation or attempting to sell drugs at the prison. Each count carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $5,000 fine. Under the plea agreement, Moy faces three to 12 months on each count. Those sentences will run consecutively to any sentence he is currently serving. Moy is currently on probation and state parole. He is being held at a state correctional institution in Pennsylvania.

Troy couple’s Halloween ends in charges for bite mark and bloody mouth

Troy, Pa. — A late night fight in Bradford County left a man with teeth marks on his chest, a woman with a bleeding mouth, and charges for both of them, police say. Around 2:30 a.m. on Nov. 1, Trooper Brody Miller responded to a report of a domestic altercation between Shawna M. Bailey, 22, and Jordan Z. Goodwin, 24, of Pine City, N.Y. at the woman's Troy Township home. During an interview, Goodwin said he had been arguing with Bailey, and tensions rose when Bailey "would not leave him alone." He tried to get away from her by going into the bathroom, he said, but she would not stop. Then, Bailey allegedly bit Goodwin on the chest. The man said after that, he shoved her to the ground and struck her in the face with his elbow. Trooper Miller confirmed there was a bite mark on the man's chest. Bailey told her side of the story, saying she had been arguing with Goodwin about an incident that occurred at a Halloween party. While interviewing Bailey, Trooper Miller said she was visibly intoxicated and bleeding from the mouth. Bailey and Goodwin are each charged with simple assault and have preliminary

Williamsport toy store opening shop number 'too' downtown

Williamsport, Pa. — A new Moose is just around the corner in downtown Williamsport. Moose Too, located at 343 Pine St., Williamsport, neighboring Pine Square, is holding a Grand Opening Party Nov. 13 from 5 to 8 p.m., and everyone is invited to come celebrate the child-like whimsy of adults. Moose Too, sister store to The Mulberry Moose on Mulberry Street, is designed for an older customer, early teen through adult. It has a more "grunge" atmosphere, and some products use some light profanity. The carefully curated collection is meant for laughs and good fun, but parents might want to be cautious with little ones. The Moose Too store will bring new and fun items such as collectable blind boxes, complex and simple puzzles, figure build-kits, stationary, and more! Whether someone is looking for funky socks or silly journals, the goal of the Moose's is to bring a sense of play to their customers. Five years ago, Nicole Desaulniers, owner of The Mulberry Moose toy store, moved to Williamsport to start a new chapter in her life. In early 2024, her idea for The Mulberry Moose was born, and by June, its doors opened at 423 Mulberry Street. The Williamsport

Accused killer paints himself as victim and protector in police interview played at trial

Williamsport, Pa. — Prosecutors zeroed in Friday on the long-dysfunctional relationship between an accused killer and his brother-in-law on the second day of the Cable Services murder trial in Lycoming County. During testimony, lawyers played the hourlong police interview in which shooter Kenneth Richard Michaels portrayed himself as both the victim of his brother-in-law, John Roskowski, and the man who spent decades holding the family and business together. Michaels, 68, of Montoursville, is charged with murder in the August 2023 shooting death of 69-year-old Roskowski. Roskowski was shot once in the abdomen in the lobby of a Cable Services building in Old Lycoming Township after walking into the building. Michaels admitted to the shooting, but claimed it was done in self-defense. In the interview with Detective Justin Segura of the Lycoming Regional Police Department, Michaels said, “Nobody has a good relationship with John.” He described how he bought out Roskowski’s shares in the company, ultimately paying more than he believed they were worth because he “wanted to be the good guy” and help the family. Michaels told Segura he had spent the last 40 years keeping the family together and “that’s what this is all about.” The day of the
