Arlington lawyer gets year in prison
An Arlington County lawyer who defrauded the parents of special needs children was sentenced Friday to a year in prison by an Arlington Circuit Court judge. Howard D. Deiner, 54, specialized in representing parents who wanted to challenge local school boards' handling of their children. Four different parents testified at Deiner's trial in October that Deiner told them he was a lawyer, and that he could appeal their cases to the courts if they lost at the schools' administrative level. One parent said he hired Deiner after losing at the administrative level, specifically to appeal in federal court. But Deiner had allowed his bar license to lapse from January 2006 to April 2009, and he was not legally able to file court actions. But he did file a federal suit on behalf of one family, and forged another lawyer's signature on the pleading, that lawyer testified.

Richmond police: Give that back
It was an innocent enough request from a citizen to the Richmond Police Department: Please, under the Freedom of Information Act, give me copies of your various operating manuals. The Richmond police complied, and last month sent over 600 pages, and charged $89.25 for the processing cost. But then they learned that the citizen was an anarchist, and a member of a group called Richmond Copwatch, and that the documents were promptly posted online. The police now want their stuff back. And taken down from the website. And they've filed for an emergency protective order in Richmond Circuit Court, as well as a permanent injunction to prohibit the dissemination of the information.

Sterling man sought in Fairfax rape
On the day after Christmas, an eight-year-old Fairfax County girl told her mother that a relative had raped her earlier in the day. On Wednesday, Fairfax police conducted a manhunt for the relative, an alleged member of the Mara Salvatrucha street gang, with warrants for forcible rape and forcible sodomy. The attack occurred in the girl's bedroom about 10:30 a.m., in a townhouse on Cardigan Square in Centreville, Fairfax Detective Darrin DeCoster said. Other people were in the house but did not hear anything, DeCoster said. The girl reported the incident later in the day, and "we do have evidence to support that allegation," DeCoster said. Police obtained warrants for Salvador Portillo-Saravia, 29, of Sterling, but have not been able to locate him.
