Aubry Eugene Glascock, 32, will be sentenced Aug. 1 by San Diego Superior Court Judge Eugenia Eyherabide. The judge said she would impose no more than 16 months in prison if she decides to deny probation. The incident took place April 27 at a motor home parked at the foot of Voltaire Street. Glascock slapped his girlfriend and then threw the 4-month-old puppy against the motorhome. The dog was dead at the scene when police arrived, said Deputy District Attorney Harrison Kennedy. A restraining order against Glascock prohibits him from contacting his former girlfriend. Charges involving corporal injury to another person on April 15 were dropped. Glascock is being held without bail. He has also been charged with damaging jail property in excess of $950 in damages and will be sentenced July 24 in Chula Vista Superior Court on that case. —Neal Putnam Chamber moves ahead with outreach campaign The board of directors of the Peninsula Chamber of Commerce has decided to move to Phase 2 in its “Forward, Together!” business betterment outreach campaign. Chamber officials said the purpose of Phase 2 is to expand the conversation between businesses and how they can attract more business to Point Loma, work more effectively with City Hall in reducing red tape while keeping business taxes among the lowest in California, as well as building stronger ties between business. The chamber has scheduled nine sessions where Point Loma Village/Shelter Island business owners will discuss these concepts for the area. Meetings will begin Tuesday, July 3. All sessions will be an hour long and will cover the same issues, so most business owners will find attending one or two sessions sufficient, according to chamber officials. Meetings are open to the entire community but only business issues will be discussed. For more information, call (619) 223-1629, or visit www.peninsulachamber.com.
