Hi Larry. I have another tid bit of information that you may find interesting too regarding the unequal justice also speaking of a drunk driving incident. I work at a large law firm in the San Fernando Valley. I happen to know a couple of very young law students who work at the Santa Barbara Jail and one who previously worked there. I was made aware of an incident through him that occurred with the wife of the chief of police at the time he worked there. Although she was picked up and brought in due to the fact that she could hardly stand and was such a danger to herself and anyone on the road. She was fully wasted with alchohol levels sky high and way above the legal limit. She was treated like a princess while she was there and offered blankets and such so she would be comfortable during her SHORT stay which only lasted till her husband, the chief of police, showed up to take her home. She was never booked or processed through the courts system. That young law student said there were several incidents similar to this that went on up there in Santa Barbara and he was disgusted and dissolutioned by it. Very sad.

Real Estate Foreclosure Fraud in Santa Barbara no N.O.D.'s being Published, WHY?
Real Estate Foreclosure Fraud in Santa Barbara
As it turns out yesterday as I often do I miss a chance to be more complete or exposing than I am. You see here I was explaining that during the Foreclosure of my property a new Notice of Default or “N.O.D.” was not filed or published. I than went on to share with you that as an average during the past 12 months 86 transfers occur due to these types of sales based on the date collected by our County assessor’s office. Now it takes 90 days for a N.O.D. to be completed and a sale at the court house to occur, are you with me so far? Than why is it if 110 N.O.D.’s are filed every month as an average do we not have any records being published as these actions occur? I mean the Independent and Santa Barbara classifieds should be over loaded with N.O.D. notices. Now last week I saw 6 N.O.D. notices in the Santa Barbara paper and that was all. Seams to me the Santa Barbara District Attorneys office via there Real Estate fraud division has some work to do. Oh an by the way Google Real Estate and Foreclosure Fraud in Santa Barbara and it seams we have an epidemic of Corruption, but are you really surprised.?

The Best and Worst at the Same Time
Once again I am at odds with myself in regards to sharing what concerns that rise up from a simple review of the daily media be it the press or video. Have you every had some thing in your life be the worst and best experience at the same time. I find myself there almost on a daily basis. Right now today I am so lost as to what is right, or what is wrong, to have faith or have I lost my faith? I wonder how many apologizes I owe for my selfishness which is why all these postings began in the first place. Now when I say my selfishness you might also view it as my self preservation through our Santa Barbara criminal court corruption. I often worry what if my postings have over stepped there place with the families that live the nightmare I describe and to them I am truly sorry and do at this time again offer my Heart felt apologies. As I reflect back to my first experiences with the courts here in Santa Barbara. It was more than just my personal violations but the violations of our Country that started my writing. I never claim to be smarter than or some sort of know it all, in fact my claims are just the opposite. I feel that for the most part I am just simply sharing situations or data that make no sense to me and I wonder if it is the same for you? Now my need to make sense of my life is why I write (best) yet my fear I may never get my life back (worst) is why I can hate writing. Does that make sense to anyone? I love my Country and yet hate what I see and I feel a responsibility greater than my own needs to keep writing. Than the question comes can words really inspire others into concern or action? Will people raise there head from the grazing on manure that we do on a daily basis without thought and respect for the needs of complete strangers as we would our own? Time will tell but I have faith that when the ugly of what has really transpired right here in Santa Barbara to our youth the best of people will show up.
“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish the Constitution for the United States of America. “
These words not only inspire me but our veterans live and die to ensure they are never abused. Most people have respect for these values far greater than what has been shown here in Santa Barbara. Well here I go getting long winded again so I better stop. What I am going to try and accomplish right now is some simple short thoughts, concerns, questions and data. Than I will leave it up to you if my work can really make a difference? If you find this posting has intrigued you all I ask is that you share it with others so the good work can begin. There can be no greater core value than family and the destruction of this unit and is a crime against our selves. Our fore fathers took into account that we would be a bi cultural Country at birth thus the reason why our freedoms were regardless of our orgin to always be protected. We must be able to embrace where we came from and where we are with out prejudice to either.
Real quickly did any one catch the episode of “On Patrol” the REALITY show of the Santa Barbara police? Well if that’s REALITY it is no wonder that Cam Sanchez is in the mess that he is. In the episode I saw a week or so ago Saturday the police were following up on a call to 7-11 on Castillo Street. Once there they found a white man who was under the influence of alcohol and they thought he had been driving and with a child and yet he was only given a warning and allowed to take a taxi home! Please remember his vehicle is in the parking lot, did the security cameras not have the man driving onto the property? Now the officer involved I have concerns with but please, he let him go scott free? At the very least a field report should have been taken and a referral to social services at the very least. Oh that’s right it was not an “ALEGED GANG CRIME’ my bad. Now the very next scene is the Santa Barbra police stopping some one who is walking under the influence of alcohol. After a very polite interview they end up taking the person to a sober center. I agree with how the second situation was handled the officers were great, very polite and showed genuine concern for the well fair of the person and the law….BRAVO . Just tell me who is the idiot that edits this show and thinks that the first situation gave a good view of our police. Now get this straight I have nothing but love and respect for all law enforcement but corruption will never sit well with me. You see when you use a car to run over and kill two Mexicans and all they get is 5 years in prison with special circumstances, it makes me wonder? Now the woman leaves behind 4 children. So where is the justice for them I ask? Now did anyone else besides me notice the ‘ON PATROL” being advertised on the Super Bowl channel prior to the game? That must have cost? I wonder Cam Sanchez do you have an image problem? If you would like I could preview the show so that you stop disrespecting the men and woman who serve under you.
I have a question for Mr. Sanchez, Did the Sheriff Officer you and the D.A. Dozer put on the stand for the Juarez whisper tape. Was that officer made a ware before he took the stand that the F.B.I. had enhanced the audio, because his testimony sure did not reflect any such knowledge. Now during the Juarez trial why was this F.B.I. version never used? Mr. Sanchez you don’t USE fellow law enforcement officers as it appears you did in the Juarez trial. I have the court motion requesting the release of such a tape.

Pension and Budget woes in Santa Barbara were Corruption is King
If you follow the manure meter as I do in local Politics it is very easy to decode. If the actual numbers do not build there case of hysteria they use percentage's I.E. crime is up 242% on Laguna Street . Translation 7 crimes were committed last month as apposed to 3 the previous month. So about a month ago I started wondering about our County budget woes and the blanket excuse that the poor economy and stock market performance was at the root of our problem. Yet no fund or stock was every reviled. A Good excuse since the whole Country is using that one. So than by chance 3 weeks ago the local President of the Santa Barbara County Tax Payers Association wrote in the Santa Barbara news press. He shared his concerns with our poor local economy and the County’s obligation to the Pension fund, but he never said it was a 2 billion dollar issue! Now of the 39 Million dollar budget short fall which last March was projected to only be 19 Million, the additional 19 Million was blamed on poor returns from investments and the Counties obligation to meet the pension funding requirements. So it is a 2 billion dollar elephant in the room? And if I read the reports right we are already at a 400 million dollar deficit than what kind of band aid is 19 million? The Daily Sound kept it’s report close to the vest like the Grand Jury report, while the news press never passed on information and where to get the data. Now compare the Grand Jury report below
http://www.sbcgj.org/2009/SBCERS.pdf
VS. the report made by the County, there are too many contradictions to swallow.
http://www.countyofsb.org/uploadedFiles/sbcers/SBCERS%20CAFR%202008(2).pdf
Below is the guidelines used by our Pension Board
http://www.countyofsb.org/sbcers/BoardGovernance/BudgetApproval.pdf
Now yes P.E.R.S. report is very similar in layout by our Counties but that does not mean it is an accurate portrayal of facts that are being presented for review. For example say you review a Billion Dollar corporation pension plan like Pacific Scientific: exact share value past and current and changes to portfolios are present for every avenue of investment or assets. It's over my head but than why have I been researching this for almost 4 weeks? Real quickly how can a ten year return of a positive 2.7% create a 25 percent decline in Value? Now P.E.R.S. ten year average was 6.6. Ok so the County's report fails to link Investment performance with management responsability why is that?
Ok lets review further on these budget woes and our District Attorneys office. In a letter dated August 29 2009 there was already in place a 2 year budget reduction for the District Attorneys office of over 1 million dollars, now that savings can actually be over 1.5 million since none of the positions vacated by the early retirement (Golden Parachute) are going to be filled. Oh wait maybe the District Attorney and our Board of Supervisors forgot this savings was already completed? So where there added service years that got handed out spiked as well? Spiking is a way of over loading your yearly salary so as to have it effect in a positive way on your retirement entitlements. So more on the pension concerns, 95% retirement salary benefit and the Grand Jury estimates 45 cents to benefits for every dollar spent in salary can that be true, HELL YES!
Let’s review past budgets for the Probation department. Please remember this is not blaming or mocking the fine Job done by that department or it's employees.
http://www.countyofsb.org/ceo/budgetresearch/documents/budget0809/432%2008-09%20Probation%20022%20(D95-120).pdf
Character of Expenditures from 06-07 thru 08-09
Operating Expenditures
Regular Salaries 06-07 $ 2 0,499,388 07-08 adopted $ 2 1,437,735 07-08 actual $ 2 1,327,065 08-09 recommended $ 2 2,591,850
Benefits 06-07 $ 9,754,319 07-08 adopted $ 10,878,670 07-08 actual $ 10,315,939 08-09 recommended 11,911,780
Salaries & Benefits Sub-Total 06-07 $ 31,870,777 07-08 adopted $ 33,630,932 actual 07-08 $33,318,637 08-09 recommended $35,625,000
So upon review
We paid 22,591,850/salaries
And paid 11,911,780 in benefits for 08-09
over 50% of every tax dollars not used in a service directly benefiting society. Now wait a minute than why is the Public Defenders and District Attorneys budget only reflecting a modest 10 to 12 % range salary to benefits cost. Do as I did and go to County’s web page and review these 3 departments. Mind you over time is kept track of in its own ledger. Did you also notice that benefits were increased at a higher percentage than salaries for the years covered?

Real Estate Foreclosure Corruption in the Santa Barbara Housing Market
1721 Chino Street Real Estate Corruption through out our Santa Barbara Superior Court House.
I was researching some title issues on a property I lost while I was dealing with the criminal court corruption before me.
01/27/09 Sold 233,000.00 Public Record
11/10/08 Sold 369,000.00 Public Record
12/27/06 Sold 75,185.00 Public Record(actually that is the transfer date and not the sale date)
12/15/06 Les Pendent lifted off property allowing a Non Judaical Foreclosure sale.
The web link below can be used to verify the corruption I am exposing.
www.sbvote.com/clerkrecorder
Now if the Les Pendent is lifted on the date above should there not be another Notice of Default re-filed after that date with a new NOD sale Date for the fee's being collected? I only bring this up because at the time of the original NOD filing fee's were only 55,000.00 and not the 75,000.00 that are listed as the sale price. Now keep in my mind I was never notified about anything concerning the sale an the house had no bidders. So it was transferred in a NON Judaical Foreclosure for past due fee's only. Now the cool thing about looking up my property for November through December of 06 is that the results all come back to single page and it is quite clear liberty's were taken in regards to following proper procedures in a Foreclosure sale. OK lets move forward and ask if I lost my home in 2006 an Anthony Urwick took control how am I credited with two more sales on the other dates listed above? Now here comes the corruption part. Why are we not able to find these sales dates and document numbers when searching public records at the above listed web site? I searched the records with dates in hand only to be left further confused unable to verify sales and document numbers. So than remembering in the past that during previous Real Estate research, property deeds and transaction history's were available in a different format, Guess what that format is no longer available to the public,WHY THE HELL IS THAT? With about 95 transfers a month via foreclosure it seams a tool the pubic needs. Now we still have further research in how title insurance was issued with all these discrepancies but I'll save that for another day.

Now what I forgot to mention was that due to the Criminal Court Corruption I was told prison was in my future. So I put the house on the market with Prudential and we had an offer the first day. It was poor action on my part that put me in this whole and I must take that responsibility. The second day on the market I was arrested and charged with 3 strike-able felonies by Prosecutor Mary Barron. Lets review that one stemmed from a flat tire were all leads were exhausted by our local P.D. . The D.A.'s office went as far as to hold a preliminary hearing and I was bound over for trial, In trial court. The information was filed by Mary Barron only she was incorrect in her charges. You see she filed a informational all right but the charges were now reduced to 2 misdemeanors. Well she could have done that in criminal court without a preliminary hearing. You don't waste the valuable time of a Superior Court trial Judge on misdemeanors'. Any how I lost the sale and assets to protect myself with. I let down my friends and family , it was all just so weird.

Joyce Dudley from S.B. District Attorneys Office says the MAGIC Words!
In an interview from last Wednesday Santa Barbara District Attorney candidate Joyce Dudley made some very loud and clear statements . It is only my opinion but I felt her message was made as much for our Judicial system as it was for the general public. In her closing remarks Mrs. Dudley was very clear in stating that both the prosecuting of crimes and our criminal courts must be JUST! This is clearly something I have been stating for years now that is just not so. Even more important than that when posed the question of the Gang Issue" Mrs. Dudley clearly stated the problem with Gangs is in the North county. Now what she does not say speaks volumes to us here in Santa Barbara and I hope every Gang out reach coordinator, probation officer, and even police officers share that message with our youth. It seams for the first time in a long time our youth are going to be treated on face value of there crimes and not on the media story impact as in past regimes. You see if you take 3 murders out of the media and there over lapping effect what other issues do you have that were not created by the previous District Attorney,city council or police chief Cam Sanchez? 2oo arrest via gator roll based on 6 robberies and 1 burglary, were are the drug sales, stolen property or crimes against our society that would justify the federal act called Gator Roll? This must be the reason why to date there has been no public disclosure of the federal indictments for review and the media failed to expose there stories to the scrutiny of the public by sharing there material to the wire services or the Internet. If they had maybe more than just Magic would have been able to piece everything together by simply reading the lies and transgressions in the media such as I have done!
Let us not forget there are still many areas our District Attorneys office has failed such as in my second arrested when they broke into my hotel room at Gun Point. Some where along the line a phone message of mine while being made into transcripts was altered and created a very dangerous situation and I could have been harmed. When you take into account during the previous 4 days over 6000.00 was stolen from me as I was stalked by a select few with badges that consider there illegal actions against me acceptable. My room was broken into with neither and arrest or search warrant and that case was resolved by me being forced to accept a suspended prison sentence. Which is exactly why I have forwarded my concerns to the State Bar for review along with several other case's not necessarily dealing with me. It is very odd some funds were returned while I was oddly transported from the arrest site in Santa Barbara to a holding cell in Carpinteria. The term ' Hot Pursuit " was used to by pass the legal process in my situation, something I hope to clear up with a review of that days dispatch log and dispatch recordings as well as the never produced phone recordings or security video. We can break down my 5 arrest, in which I was forced against my will to sit in jail almost 3 months with no legal charges, or the beating I took while being treated for depression, which once again should be on security video. No matter how you review them all actions taken against me are illegal.
I know many people think that these things don't happen but from my very first false arrest and felony charge I realized our court system was not Just. How could a 170.6 motion to create the situation an have a former prosecutor from the local D.A. now Judge be advantages for young Mr Juarez during the Angel Linares murder trial. How can we still be exposing minors in the media by releasing there names before there are convicted as adults as we currently do? Innocent until proven guilty unless you are in the Santa Barbara criminal court system. Good thing my sister the than probation officer would rather discredit her brother and protect corruption than deal with matters on face value. I have worked hard during my 49 years to raise and protect my Son's and have them believe in the law.
Much worse than that is everyone is willing to look the other way while our Judicial system violates there every responsibility. How could any Gang issue be heard in our local court system with out the request of Change of venue? We have illegal actions in our court system dating back to 1997 and Efren Cruz that should more than allow Gang cases to be moved to a more Just court system. Why was Ricardo Juarez not granted bail thus allowing him the freedom to express what really transpired 03/16/07/? How can any current case not be utilizing the change of venue or 170.6 motion to keep cases out of Judge Hills over seeing of them? An what of District attorney's like Dozer, Barron or Boller and all there past transgressions, why are they allowed in any court room? Does the term Public Defender not explain there responsibilities within there title? One would not know based on there court room actions or lack of.
Now this past Sunday I posted a challenge of comparing crime data between State Street on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings versus Alleged Gang territory and I have had no takers to date. You see when we begin to take away ones freedoms such as with injunctions, than the question becomes when do you stop. If it's ok in the Hood than surely it is ok on State Street, and than it would be ok in Isla Vista on Del Playa. In fact social drug and alcohol abuse is far greater in non Hispanic areas of our county and the data will reflect that.
So be careful when you Judge because some one out there might just do the research and hold you to your wishes. If your wishes are to truly have a safe county than let the real data dictate were out problems lye. 3.4 arrest a week sounds like wishful thinking, hell the homeless are a bigger arrest issue that our current 'Alleged Gang Issue".
Let us not forget there are still many areas our District Attorneys office has failed such as in my second arrested when they broke into my hotel room at Gun Point. Some where along the line a phone message of mine while being made into transcripts was altered and created a very dangerous situation and I could have been harmed. When you take into account during the previous 4 days over 6000.00 was stolen from me as I was stalked by a select few with badges that consider there illegal actions against me acceptable. My room was broken into with neither and arrest or search warrant and that case was resolved by me being forced to accept a suspended prison sentence. Which is exactly why I have forwarded my concerns to the State Bar for review along with several other case's not necessarily dealing with me. It is very odd some funds were returned while I was oddly transported from the arrest site in Santa Barbara to a holding cell in Carpinteria. The term ' Hot Pursuit " was used to by pass the legal process in my situation, something I hope to clear up with a review of that days dispatch log and dispatch recordings as well as the never produced phone recordings or security video. We can break down my 5 arrest, in which I was forced against my will to sit in jail almost 3 months with no legal charges, or the beating I took while being treated for depression, which once again should be on security video. No matter how you review them all actions taken against me are illegal.
I know many people think that these things don't happen but from my very first false arrest and felony charge I realized our court system was not Just. How could a 170.6 motion to create the situation an have a former prosecutor from the local D.A. now Judge be advantages for young Mr Juarez during the Angel Linares murder trial. How can we still be exposing minors in the media by releasing there names before there are convicted as adults as we currently do? Innocent until proven guilty unless you are in the Santa Barbara criminal court system. Good thing my sister the than probation officer would rather discredit her brother and protect corruption than deal with matters on face value. I have worked hard during my 49 years to raise and protect my Son's and have them believe in the law.
Much worse than that is everyone is willing to look the other way while our Judicial system violates there every responsibility. How could any Gang issue be heard in our local court system with out the request of Change of venue? We have illegal actions in our court system dating back to 1997 and Efren Cruz that should more than allow Gang cases to be moved to a more Just court system. Why was Ricardo Juarez not granted bail thus allowing him the freedom to express what really transpired 03/16/07/? How can any current case not be utilizing the change of venue or 170.6 motion to keep cases out of Judge Hills over seeing of them? An what of District attorney's like Dozer, Barron or Boller and all there past transgressions, why are they allowed in any court room? Does the term Public Defender not explain there responsibilities within there title? One would not know based on there court room actions or lack of.

Malicious Prosecution is a Common Practice by the Santa Barbara County's District Attorneys Office!

So many of you that are interacting with me at this time are new to my life and I value your interest, support and at times your harsh candor. I am a very strong willed person who requires only what is in my heart and mind for validity that my actions are the correct choice for me and the example I wish to set for my son’s. However there has always been one area of which I wish I had more of, my Dad and Brother’s people skills. I think my sister Robin says it best that sometimes “Larry does not play well with others in the sand box”. But you know what I am exactly what is needed today in these challenging times that we live in. I feel the same way about our President but let us stick to me for right now. In years past when the economy was prospering I would take an unpopular stance an challenge why certain acts were allowed and at what cost they would have down the road. Recently I have been trying to share the possibility that there could be other points or views hidden in current media stories. I do this in hopes of opening up your minds to the idea that things are rarely what they have been portrayed as in the media. I have used this next example in the past and as I think of it now Jose Canseco and his exposing of steroid use in Baseball is more relevant today than ever before. Seven years ago Jose Canseco said what everyone was thinking but afraid to ask. Baseball had taken there don’t ask don’t tell approach to there game and as to who was involved in steroid use. Now back than everyone hailed Jose and his accusations as ludicrous and untrue. So we fast forward to our current times and steroid use has not only been proven it is now being used to label an era in baseball history. So what of the media and there treatment of Jose Canseco in regards to back than? You see the media acts as if the steroid issue was something they gave birth to and have the nerve to act as if they never doubted its validity. All the while they still ridicule the only man who single handedly weathered the critics when he came forward. The media has a very short memory and the ability to rewrite the beginning, middle or end to any story or situation as need be. They create a story base, sprinkle it with meaningless statistics and serve it up as an important news worthy issue. Here is a two second example of a meaningless story that the media might try an portray as relevant. NEWS FLASH: wearing nylons in the 70’s has been found to be one possible cause for cancer in all women. Of all women who wore nylons in the 70’s as high as 30% were at some point later in there life diagnosed with some form of cancer, don’t worry a Class Action lawsuit is sure to follow! Oh what times we live in. Be very careful with whom you share that news flash with it just may be the next big internet rumor. Since we as a Nation seam to have so little time for our fellow humans that is until a given real situations pops up in our life that we take an interest.
Corruption in the Santa Barbara Superior Court has popped up in my life and I am telling you all there exist a wide use of steroids by the courts regardless of the backlash to me. They artificially strengthen there positions and falsify facts in criminal case’s and that not only happens on a daily basis, nobody seams to care that there breaking the law to enforce the law. Well I want you to know I care. Now I had written about a specific story and posted on the Craigslist not long ago and there was a reply that said I am providing false information in my postings in order to make myself look good. What a sad commentary for that person to say about the content of my work. The posting I wrote about dealt with the legality of some defendants pleading out to criminal charges after 2.5 years in the Santa Barbara court system, and to set the record straight nobody comes out looking good. The situations I write about have real victims, you, me and society we are all the silent victims to these abuses. All I am trying to do is expose the abuses that seam to go unnoticed that is until now. You see even though know one wants to acknowledge this we are on the cutting edge of exposing Corruption in the Santa Barbara criminal court system in a way that has never been seen before. Just the abuse to the calendaring and departmental system alone is a crime that can only be ten years old or since the Municipal court was incorporated into Superior Court here in California. I have repeatedly talked of Superior Court Trial Judges and the fact preliminary hearings should not leave the lower criminal division. The California Constitution calls the criminal division the limited jurisdiction court because it does not deal with any civil matters. The Trial court is called the unlimited jurisdiction court and does also deal with criminal matters that carry no less than a felony charge and than only after the accused has been bound over for Trial from the lower court. Yet one would think I was wrong simply because no one else has come to these findings. Well folks I Jose Canseco Mendoza am here to tell you that your denial of the facts and issues before us will no longer be accepted. It is my learning curve based on the last 4 years of my life that I am trying to share with you all. This learning curve is also why I have come to question so many actions by our court personnel and what appears to be an obvious bias towards minorities.
How is it that on one day Trial Judge Brian Hill is presiding over an arraignment in a Santa Barbara police Chief Sanchez’s high profile case such as operation Apehanger in department two in our historic courthouse, even though it was calendared on the day in question to the lower division and other department across the street? Why would one prefer an arraignment proceeding to a murder trail and protecting our society? Than after I question these acts in operation Apehanger the case is returned to the criminal division for future proceedings? How is it that the D’Sant Angelo case had Judge Ochoa presiding over the preliminary hearing in our historic courthouse and than later returned to department 12 of the criminal division? I only bring this up because in the Ricardo Juarez murder trial during his arraignment Judge Hill was assigned the case after 2 170.6 motions were used to steer the case his way for all matters. The term ‘for all matters” is widely used in Trial court and is further abuse from the lower division. So than tell me how it is possible for a person running for city council such as John Thyne can appear before Judge Brian Hill in department 2, Trial Court for a misdemeanor probation violation when that charge should never leave the jurisdiction of the criminal courts? All these and many more manipulations currently exist in the Santa Barbara Superior court system and we are just getting started.
I find it odd when a the newly appointed Superior Court Trial Judge such as Colleen Sterne fills the most recent vacancy to our courts rather that the 3 year old spot left by Judge Hall’s removal? Or how can she state that she will have her Judicial seat until the 2012 election even though the judges position replaced was scheduled to be on the general election for this current year of 2010. As we speak one would need a score card to keep up with the underhanded dealings of our Superior Court and its administrator Gary Blair. In a recent story appearing in the Santa Barbara Independent regarding Judge Lafferty’s passing there was a mention that with his death it brings the current judicial vacancies to three. Originally it was to be 2 commissioner spots that went unfilled do to budgetary reasons and those spots have since been upgraded to judicial positions. So let me get this straight because of the current Superior Court budget crunch we cannot fill the 100k commissioner spots used in the lower courts rather instead we will upgrade those positions to 176k judicial positions why that makes no sense. Now with a budget in excess of 22 million dollars for Santa Barbara Superior Court and the current back log of high priority crimes such as murder trials can we afford not to fill the commissioner vacancies? How can preliminary hearings be a priority over Trials anytime by court personnel that makes no sense? The design of our court system is proven one in the past; commissioners generally handled arraignments and traffic court in the basement of our criminal court building on Figueroa. As you ascended to the street level that would be the preliminary setting department and the second floor handled hearings and proceeding of various types. What has transpired to alter such a proven system and why has the Santa Barbara public not been made aware of such alterations? Some Preliminary hearings are taking in excess of 1 year by our Trial judges before the defendants are even bound over for trial? Are you insane that is like saying my Ferrari will have to sit because I did not budget for a flat tire. A 22million dollar enterprise and we can not figure out a better budget solution? How criminal is our current court system? Well a recent appointee from Santa Barbara by our California Governor to a Judgeship in Ventura has already resigned his appointment in less than 1 month! Lets talk about the Rodriquez hit and run case that was just postponed almost 2 weeks ago to accommodate the new assignments of Judge Eskin and the installation of retired Judge Rick Brown to department 12 for the term of one year, where does Judge Eskin go and how can I verify that? What happen to Judge Loberg in department 11 of the criminal division? How is the other Judge Brown and Judge Beebe both assigned to department 4 of Trial Court here in Santa Barbara? If I recall correctly and I usually do Judge Beebe was voted in to the north county bench of Santa Maria. It would be nice if our Superior Court web page could reflect all departments and there current personnel accurately and in a timely fashion. Even when selecting departments in the drop down window there are missing selections in regards to departments in Santa Barbara. I was just recently at the court house to attend a friends proceeding and while there I searched for the days calendaring, I did this because the Hollywood matter was to be heard in department 2, another trial of interest was scheduled for department 6 and I was curious to see who was really in department 4. Only Judge Ochoa’s calendar was posted, now why is that Gary Blair? It is a commonly known fact that department 14 is used to hide court proceedings from the general public since that is in a third building known as the Jury pool room and not a court house at all. How can one obtain a factual and most current genealogy of our Judges in all courts and department history?
Well I took the long way around the block to make my next point but getting back to my original concern and the posting in question on Craigslist last week. It seams that the Judicial Council and State Bar keep State wide case load trends and there is one area of special interest to me ; what percentage of felonies cases are concluded within 12 months. You can review the data I reference at the sites listed below if you feel the need of further confirmation.
1-www.courtinfo.ca.gov/reference/3 stats.htm
2-www.courtinfo.ca.gov/reference/documents/csr2009intro.pdf
3- www.courtinfo.ca.gov/reference/documents/csr2008.pdf
I have decided to make a chart for you all to follow and I have kept all the data in the original form as found except I have added one category.
We will be reviewing the data from the years listed below
2004-05
2005-06
2006-07
2007-o8
Now we need a control case to verify that the data is accurate and I will use case numbers 1188728, 1189598,121869 all from 2006-07.
The categories will run (A) through (G) and the criteria the represent is as follows.
A) Felonies Filed
B) Felony Dispositions
C) Felony Convictions
D) Reduced to misdemeanors from original felony charges
E) Acquittal’s and Dismissals
F) D+ E equals number of wrongfully charged felonies( my category)
G) Number of felonies closed in first twelve months, there is not a longer time frame keep by those supplying the data
A B C D E F G
2004-05) 3115 2778 2080* 303 379 683 DNS
2005-06) 3182 2865 2007** 265 588 813 100%
2006-07) 3160 2722 2101*** 0 621 621 92%
2007-08) 2308 2720 2083**** 0 486 637+ 88%
DNS Data Not Supplied
* Table 8B reflects 2080 felony convictions yet Table 8A reflects 2352 Pleads of guilty before Trial of felony or felony convictions and should these numbers not match for 2004-05 something is wrong there!
** Table 8B reflects 2007 felony convictions yet Table 8A reflects 2230 pleads of guilty before trial of a felony or felony conviction!
*** Table 8B reflects 2101 felony convictions yet Table 8A reflects 2063 pleads of guilty before trial of a felony or felony conviction, you see now someone has attempted to do the math before supplying numbers
**** Table 8b reflects 2083 felony convictions and the separation gap is closing for a second year Table 8a reflects 2040 pleads of guilty before trial.
+ in this particular year the data reflects 151 transfers , I added this number to acquittals and dismissals.
Now the main reason I began my research was so that I could once and for all show that the criminal courts has set 12 months as the target time frame in concluding felony cases start to finish. HAVING SHARED WITH YOU PRIOR THAT THE COURTS ARE SELF - REGULATING THUS THEY ARE ALSO SELF PROTECTING. They accomplish this in part by limiting there exposure with what they are wiling to share. A prime example of this is how they limit there exposure of non compliance to12 months since they request no further data beyond that time frame in dealing with felonies. Now here is the real tricky part of my analysis of this data, how and what to share with so much information? I have already pointed out that the data provided by our Santa Barbara Courts and District attorneys office is falsified and here is why. During the year of 2006-07 I was charged at one time with as many as 9 felonies in 3 separate cases. As it turned out all but one of these felonies was either dismissed or reduced to misdemeanors, yet based on the data supplied and reviewed by me that cannot be correct. During the time of 2004-06 568 felonies were reduced to misdemeanors based on the case load trends from the Santa Barbara Courts and this does not take into account dismissals. However during 2006-08 not a single case is reported reduced from a felony. Now having been in around the courts most of 2006-07 I would think greater than 25% are actually reduced from felonies to misdemeanors. So now if the Santa Barbara Districts office is willing to falsify evidence in murder trials and than convict the wrong people are we really that surprised that data numbers are false? Well if it has an effect on the economics of crime fighting and funding such as the term “possibly Gang related” seams to indicate than yes falsifying numbers for State and Federal funding must be a crime.
I have often talked of malicious prosecution by a select few Santa Barbara district attorneys? What would you say if I can show that as high as 30% were wrongfully charged with felony allegations during 2007-08 would that not prove Malicious Prosecution as a policy across the board by our Santa Barbara District attorneys office? Well if 2308 felonies were filed in 2007-08 and 637 were dismissed or transferred into thin air that equals 27.5% were wrongfully charged but wait what about the 12% of cases that were not concluded in 12 months? 12% x 2308 = 276 X 27.5% = 75.9 + 637 = 713 wrongfully accused persons of felonies by the Santa Barbara district attorneys office for the year of 2007-08 based on the case load trend data or 30% WOW. Please remember these are official numbers and represent the WHOLE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY provided by the Courts and State Bar, none of this is my personal opinion. What fool wants to challenge me on facts, oh wait that’s right there is a book out; Josh Lynn Misconduct 4 dummies!
Now please remember that30% is with out a single case being reduced to a misdemeanor talk about fiction. Recently I have read countless rants on the Craigslist about the deficit and our President Obama’s new budget. Let’s clear a few things up. Dear Republicans due to your past poor performance in Governing our country the people of the United States did not allow you the further opportunity to be in the Office of President. Now to the credit of our President I see him looking for solutions rather than making up mock charts that might reflect what a Republican deficit might show should they have been able to keep the Office. So having said that what would happen if our President could only save 7 of every 10 branch’s of any bank chain the Untied States is currently invested in? What if GM and Ford could only sell 7 of every 10 cars and trucks produced in there factories? What if for 1.6 trillion dollars we could only save 7 of every 10 stocks on Wall Street? Our country would collapse. Than why do we allow such abuse in our Judicial system? Than to make matters worse we trust LAWYERS to SELF-REGULATE that branch of Government. They wrote a best selling book titled “Unlimited income 4 Dummies” that’s what they are calling it.
Now back to Case load trends anyone happen to hear of a thing called prop 36 or drug court, or how about suspend charges based on probation completion? The Magic of the numbers these days is to find meaningful ones that actually mean something.
If you like what I have written please share it, Damn Indy oh well maybe my MAGIC is limited to the Courts?
So many of you that are interacting with me at this time are new to my life and I value your interest, support and at times your harsh candor. I am a very strong willed person who requires only what is in my heart and mind for validity that my actions are the correct choice for me and the example I wish to set for my son’s.

*** Table 8B reflects 2101 felony convictions yet Table 8A reflects 2063 pleads of guilty before trial of a felony or felony conviction, you see now someone has attempted to do the math before supplying numbers
**** Table 8b reflects 2083 felony convictions and the separation gap is closing for a second year Table 8a reflects 2040 pleads of guilty before trial.
+ in this particular year the data reflects 151 transfers , I added this number to acquittals and dismissals.
Now the main reason I began my research was so that I could once and for all show that the criminal courts has set 12 months as the target time frame in concluding felony cases start to finish. HAVING SHARED WITH YOU PRIOR THAT THE COURTS ARE SELF - REGULATING THUS THEY ARE ALSO SELF PROTECTING. They accomplish this in part by limiting there exposure with what they are wiling to share. A prime example of this is how they limit there exposure of non compliance to12 months since they request no further data beyond that time frame in dealing with felonies. Now here is the real tricky part of my analysis of this data, how and what to share with so much information? I have already pointed out that the data provided by our Santa Barbara Courts and District attorneys office is falsified and here is why. During the year of 2006-07 I was charged at one time with as many as 9 felonies in 3 separate cases. As it turned out all but one of these felonies was either dismissed or reduced to misdemeanors, yet based on the data supplied and reviewed by me that cannot be correct. During the time of 2004-06 568 felonies were reduced to misdemeanors based on the case load trends from the Santa Barbara Courts and this does not take into account dismissals. However during 2006-08 not a single case is reported reduced from a felony. Now having been in around the courts most of 2006-07 I would think greater than 25% are actually reduced from felonies to misdemeanors. So now if the Santa Barbara Districts office is willing to falsify evidence in murder trials and than convict the wrong people are we really that surprised that data numbers are false? Well if it has an effect on the economics of crime fighting and funding such as the term “possibly Gang related” seams to indicate than yes falsifying numbers for State and Federal funding must be a crime.
I have often talked of malicious prosecution by a select few Santa Barbara district attorneys? What would you say if I can show that as high as 30% were wrongfully charged with felony allegations during 2007-08 would that not prove Malicious Prosecution as a policy across the board by our Santa Barbara District attorneys office? Well if 2308 felonies were filed in 2007-08 and 637 were dismissed or transferred into thin air that equals 27.5% were wrongfully charged but wait what about the 12% of cases that were not concluded in 12 months? 12% x 2308 = 276 X 27.5% = 75.9 + 637 = 713 wrongfully accused persons of felonies by the Santa Barbara district attorneys office for the year of 2007-08 based on the case load trend data or 30% WOW. Please remember these are official numbers and represent the WHOLE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY provided by the Courts and State Bar, none of this is my personal opinion. What fool wants to challenge me on facts, oh wait that’s right there is a book out; Josh Lynn Misconduct 4 dummies!
Now please remember that30% is with out a single case being reduced to a misdemeanor talk about fiction. Recently I have read countless rants on the Craigslist about the deficit and our President Obama’s new budget. Let’s clear a few things up. Dear Republicans due to your past poor performance in Governing our country the people of the United States did not allow you the further opportunity to be in the Office of President. Now to the credit of our President I see him looking for solutions rather than making up mock charts that might reflect what a Republican deficit might show should they have been able to keep the Office. So having said that what would happen if our President could only save 7 of every 10 branch’s of any bank chain the Untied States is currently invested in? What if GM and Ford could only sell 7 of every 10 cars and trucks produced in there factories? What if for 1.6 trillion dollars we could only save 7 of every 10 stocks on Wall Street? Our country would collapse. Than why do we allow such abuse in our Judicial system? Than to make matters worse we trust LAWYERS to SELF-REGULATE that branch of Government. They wrote a best selling book titled “Unlimited income 4 Dummies” that’s what they are calling it.
Now back to Case load trends anyone happen to hear of a thing called prop 36 or drug court, or how about suspend charges based on probation completion? The Magic of the numbers these days is to find meaningful ones that actually mean something.
If you like what I have written please share it, Damn Indy oh well maybe my MAGIC is limited to the Courts?

Trying to Stealing Real Estate is bad
Well my appraiser won his lawsuit, he is lucky Lafferty passed on. You see part of what happens here in Santa Barbara is the power of the attorney and money matches up with the power of the courts and they bleed you dry. So in the middle of my brief alleged criminal career 4 years ago a person tried to take a gift back of a house but he claimed I stole it from him. Mary Barron tried to charge me with this allegation as well. Well nothing could have been further from the truth and like everything else here that is a long story. ALL THE CIVIL CASES OVER MY PROPERTY WERE DEFEATED WITHOUT ME EVERY HIRING AN ATTORNEY OR HAVING REPRESENATION PRESENT IN THE COURT ROOM HOW BRILLIANT IS THAT? All I had to do was to add a hard money second on my home at the last possible second to protect myself from criminal and civil matters. I had figured that they would fight it out over ownership and since they (the lenders) were vested partners with me I would receive the benefit of protection by default, and it worked. Mind you know all during this time allegations that I had threatened to kill no less than 5 people and of course drug abuse was flying every where. Being Jose Canseco Mendoza calling me names was the least of my problems back than. You see the hard money second filed an NOD or notice of default on my property. I had put the home up for sale with Prudential Reality to save the 250,000 equity and I received an offer the first day. But the next day I was arrested and of course that is the same day a civil lawsuit (all planed) was filed. Now Prudential on the advice of the Santa Barbara Police pulled my home off the market all with out my consent thus breaking there contract to me. I knew I was in such deep trouble that if I had lost a civil case prison was in my future, I also knew that stupidity and greed was behind my troubles from all sides and I guess I was the smarter person. Now mind you had my friend Bernie just included me the real owner of the property in his civil actions we probably would have had the property returned to us mortgage free. I still have those intentions but I have a ton of work a head of me. So any how the NOD is filed and the court puts a stay or in other words blocks the sale until the civil matters were played out. Now mind you know no less than 3 separate parties are fighting it out in court and that does not include myself and not a single day was I invited or did I appear in court room while they fought about the ownership my property!
So the Judge finds for the lenders and all civil matters are cleared and that is a Thursday afternoon. With out re filing a new NOD, or following the Department of Real Estate Laws my home was sold on the following Monday in a non judicial foreclosure, which is not close to being legally possible. First a new NOD must be filed, and a sale date posted at the court house and in 2 publications. I must be notified by certified mail of what is happening, if or how much would be needed satisfy the NOD. An that must all happen at least 10 days prior to the sale by registered mail, this with out the 20 notification by regular mail. So before the stay and when the first NOD was filed I owed 55,000 to keep the home the first lender was not involved at this time. Now from the Thursday the stay was removed to the Monday of the alleged sale at the court house the amount needed to clear the NOD had risen to 85,000. You see I was charged additional legal fees with out notification and with out cause since I had not brought legal action on anyone. So I worked hand in hand with the appraiser and the lawyer to defeat this frivolous lawsuit. I think that now I should file all there false acts with the Department of Real Estate and look to see who has legal responsibility for the 250,000 equity lose. I had to wait a year for this court proceeding to play out so that my future actions are fortified with what just transpired in court.
Oh by the way there were no buyers at the court house that day so the home was transferred over to Anthony Urwick the investor of the hard money second thru the Santa Barbara courts. Oh about the lawsuit and the appraiser. Well some how at the end of 2008 a full 2 years after the transfer of the property to Mr. Urwick The first lender’s distressed property division claims I sold the house in a short sale and have become responsible for the taxes owed the IRS in trade of what the lost in principle. Oh it gets better the lender and new purchaser of my home have a title report that claims all there alleged actions of the sale did indeed happen. How can one man be involved in the amount of cluster fucks ( sorry for the language) as I? You see that is were we always come back to why screw with Larry Mendoza in the first place? Oh and just in case your wondering Colleen Sterne the new Superior Court judge used to work for Henderson & Borgeson the attorneys who represented Mr. Urwick. An by the way a dear friend of mine has an old work place injunction from C Sterne not worth the paper it was written on, oh wait she forgot to issue the ruling with in those matters, it pays to learn procedures that’s all I know.

I can expose Judicial and Prosecutorial Misconduct by Judges and D.A.'s in S.B.
My Name is Larry Mendoza and if you would like documents reflecting the corruption in our Santa Barbara courts I can provide them upon request. I have documents such as when the Santa Barbara District Attorney Gerald McCFranklin gives immunity to a murder (Juarez trial). Than has the person receiving immunity (stomper) testifies in court against the wrongfully accused defendant. Or how about when a public defender in another court document asks how much the term is possibly gang related means in revenue to the local police and District Attorneys office, the replying document was not found. Or a more relevant document where the Public Defenders office requests the District Attorneys office to be cited for Prosecutorial Misconduct and also request for Judicial Recusal based on the Judges Misconduct. Deputy District Attorney Josh Lynn who is running for the office of District Attorney felt it best to make web sites for Misconduct but only for his political gain. He has shown no intention of following the law himself or having other colleagues do so as well. Why do you think Deputy D.A. Mr. Dozer was so upset with the web page concept to begin with, purely bush league. During the Juarez Trial and very similar to Mr. Lynn in the Hollywood trial, defense Counsel had pointed out that both the prosecutor and Judge had misled the jury. In regards to the issue of sentence in that a range of sentences is not available for the charges alleged as implied by the two of them, and this can be grounds for mistrial. There is no ambiguity in the Jury instructions as supplied by the California Judicial Counsel. The document you are looking for Mr. Lynn is dated 07/18/08 “MOTION RENEWING REQUEST FOR MISTRIAL AND CITATION FOR PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT AND REQUEST FOR JUDICIAL RECUSAL’. I look forward to the web page you and your supporters can create for the true benefit of the Santa Barbara public. Our youth are committing suicides in having to deal with all this misconduct and yet no counseling web page is being supplied by anyone. An what of all that federal money for Gang INTERVENTION work by our probation department we have yet to hear anything, is that the stat padded so as to qualify for these money? Speaking of which while reviewing the Official Court Statistics report I find felonies are down almost 25% IN Santa Barbara yet our local police and district attorneys office would have you believe just the opposite. Worse yet is that based on dismissals or acquittals depending on the year reviewed as high as one in four is falsely accused of a felony to begin with. When you factor a 22 million dollar Judicial budget we sure seam to be wasting a ton of tax payers money. I have a Super Bowl posting coming out Sunday that will reflect much more than what I have just shared. I sure hope the Santa Barbara Independent can finish the Sarah Palin School of journalism soon and learn to include the ‘ 5 W’s” in there future coverage of our local courts and actions taken by them. How serious can you be when you forget to name the Judicial Officer or the Judge to us and his department in all your stories? This action alone makes me wonder why we cannot look up criminal cases and there Dispositions on the internet like every other county in the State? Maybe a letter to Gary Blair Superior Court administrator can fill in that gap of information.
By the way the Latinos in this county do need a wake up call since we make up nearly 38% of the county and receive 0 percent representation. I am visited by people with Badges all the time and I call them friends. Be it white brown or black Cam Sanchez and his ways are not appreciated by our local law enforcement and they freely share that with me when ever we chat. If you are to view his ‘On Patrol’ T.V. advertising you would think he only represents the white population. Our Local Hispanic law enforcement does not condone the illegal actions being committed against anyone but especially when targeting Hispanic youth. In two days this week I received two warnings from law enforcement visitors that the targeting of our youth was about to get worse and talk of Gang Injunctions has turned into action. We need to seek convictions on all those who commit a crime regardless of race. Including those employed by our criminal courts, regardless of position. The more I share these facts the harder it is for me to understand, WHEN THE HELL IS THE EASTSIDE GOING TO WAKE UP?
HARD WORK NOT MAGIC IS WHAT IS NEEDED TO BE TREATED THE SAME AS ALL AMERICANS. THE NUMBER ONE NATIONALITY IN THESE UNITED STATES IS MUTT (SORRY RUSH) YET EVERYONE WANTS TO ACT AS IF THEY AND ONLY THEY HAVE A PEDIGREE.

To Whom It May Concern:
My first attempt to share my concerns of Prosecutorial misconduct or Malicious and Abusive actions by our Santa Barbara District Attorney and lack of protection from this by our Public Defenders office went un answered. I did resend in my concerns but did not include the documentation that my first attempt contained. So I felt it best at this time to resend the documentation as per my first attempt only this time I felt the need to certify you’re receiving of such a package. I feel that this represents at best 10% of what must be reviewed and I am in the process of assembling the remainder of my concerns presently.
I thank you in advance for your hard work.

2.5 Years to tak a Deal is that even Legal?
So here I am late on a Friday night stuck at work. Now I am hoping that you all can see since early December I have really tried to step up my game in regards to my postings and there quality. I have to be honest the week of rain and the couple of extra shifts I have been working have taken there toll on my most recent efforts. In fact I am currently 2 postings behind. I have almost completed a posting in regards to some abuses that I have not shared before. Than of course those of you have received my most recent emails know I am chopping at the bit to post about my most recent document findings in regards to the Juarez case. Now that I have shared all that I was not really expecting to be working on anything tonight while at work. But I will be damned if I didn’t open up the current Independent and just had to share my findings with you all.
THE STORY READS “ Three Eastside gang members – Omar Ramos Erick Roman and Ricardo Nava- all pleaded guilty to attempted murder with a gang enhancement and were sentenced in Santa Barbara Superior Court on 1/25. Ramos was sentenced to twenty years, both for the aforementioned charges and for a gang strike. Roman received a total of 17 years 8 months and Nava’s sentencing will have him in prison for the rest of 19 years. According to prosecutor Hans Almgren the three attacked a rival Westside gang member on the 600 block of Del Monte Avenue on June 28th 2007” END OF INDEPENTDENT STORY
So after having read that account and all my effort to inform you all about court procedures. An the abuses by the Santa Barbara District Attorneys office what bothers you most about this story. Wait one minute please I jumped the gun and would not be doing Sarah Palin ay credit if I left out here journalism credentials and her goals with her new media show. Less we forget her show will be different because she will be old school and her stories will include the 5 W’s, Who,What,Where,When,Why. OK I will get to the point. Who was the Judge and what court room did sentencing take place. For that matter who was the defendant’s attorneys and for 60 years in prison the story could at least recount the criminal act. So what was the term for the main charge and the how many years for the gang enhancement? Now all of you who have paid attention from my previous posting know there are some very serious procedural problems still with this case. So at first glance based on the sentencing one would think this was another slam dunk gang case and the District Attorney’s office had done there job, oh but wait lets review some more. It took two and a half years for these men to cop a plea? What happen to 90 days for a preliminary hearing and one year to conclude the case as per California Judicial Council Guidelines? If the District Attorneys case was that strong why the lack of a trial, Why would defendants hold out for two years and there attorney’s not ask that charges be dropped?
Obviously I will have to research this case but 2.5 years and everyone in the court room acted as if that was legal? I wonder what the pre-sentencing reports say because there is no reference made in the story. It also seams odd to me that our Santa Barbara News press missed this chance to take another pot shot at our youth. I sure hope that some way some how we get some media attention from somewhere out side of Santa Barbara.

So at first glance based on the sentencing one would think this was another slam dunk gang case and the District Attorney’s office had done there job, oh but wait lets review some more. It took two and a half years for these men to cop a plea? What happen to 90 days for a preliminary hearing and one year to conclude the case as per California Judicial Council Guidelines? If the District Attorneys case was that strong why the lack of a trial, Why would defendants hold out for two years and there attorney’s not ask that charges be dropped?
Obviously I will have to research this case but 2.5 years and everyone in the court room acted as if that was legal? I wonder what the pre-sentencing reports say because there is no reference made in the story. It also seams odd to me that our Santa Barbara News press missed this chance to take another pot shot at our youth. I sure hope that some way some how we get some media attention from somewhere out side of Santa Barbara.

Santa Barbara Public defender Karen Adkins must explain her fears of Judicial and Procutorial Misconduct in our Judicial System
Well in my last posting I spoke about how the Santa Barbara Public Defenders Office is serving up our youth to the District Attorneys Office as if they were playing a game of baseball. They are serving them up fat, slow and right down the middle of the plate. An even with all the concern over youth gangs there is one area we all seamed to have missed. I am speaking of the older Gang and it’ leaders we call them mentors. Just who belongs to the older Gang of mentors teaching our youth to commit crimes and become outlaws just like them? I am sure in some backward kind of way this must all seem like a joke to this older group of gang members. Now don’t get me wrong I have always said if anyone youth or adult commits a crime follow the law until you obtain a conviction. It has always been my belief we must all be responsible for our actions and what ever that may entail. Now recently I commented on the internet about something that Ernie Salomon wrote in the Santa Barbara News Press. Ernie and I than exchanged emails and he asked that I write some of my thoughts down so that I might later share them on his show. Well Ernie here they are: you are correct we must aggressively address the two Gang issues we have living right here in Santa Barbara. Now I could get assaulted by the adult gang as I have in the past for even mentioning that they exist but as usual I will just have to take my chances. You see the mentors have taught our youth to lie to law enforcement, to give false testimony during trials, and to even threaten physical harm if there demands are not met. These mentors are known to abuse our judicial system in ways we could only dream about. They have been shown or so they think that you can break the law and get away with it anytime you want and that society is helpless to do anything about it. . So I ask you all just what are we going to do to stop the law breaking action and mentors and the messages they are sending our youth? What I am saying is who is really to blame for our youth and there law breaking ways. Well I guess it is time I name the leader of these mentors and his name is Cam Sanchez and anyone who follows him by breaking the law. Law Enforcement has taught our youth it is ok to have someone give false testimony as in the Juarez case. When these mentors like Senior District Attorney Dozer go out of there way to convict the wrong defendants than you tell me than what have our youth been taught? Why than must we hold our east side and west side youth to higher standards than we hold law enforcement and other leaders of our community. Is it not true Cam Sanchez has been accused of perjury while on the stand and those charges have yet to be cleared? All I am doing is pointing out a view that many can consider unpopular but sadly is filled with the truth. Marty Blum is another fine example of a community leader inept at her responsibilities. It was her City council while she sat as mayor that fielded the question of Mr. Sanchez’s alleged perjury and failed in her tenure to secure an answer. She just recently went on T.V. and for the first time I can recall referred to the Gator Roll action. I have asked why if there are positive effects to that action have we not advertised how that action can benefit the community as a hole. My concerns to date have fallen on deaf ears. I am sure my Father and Uncles may be old enough to remember when you might be labeled a Pachuco or for my Grand fathers a Zoot suiter , my how time changes and everything remains the same fear and ignorance on the Latino’s, Hispanics. For there is no prouder American than a G.I veteran from world war II with Mexican heritage, There is no prouder American than when the President of the United States holds your Latina Grand Daughter in his arms right Matt Sanchez. You see President Bush Sr. American is proud of President Bush Jr American who is proud of his grandkids oh wait did you miss this one that are Mexican American. You see it is already in America’s future and I want my son to be the first American president with Mexican heritage so America needs to wake up. 1.6 trillion dollars in fraud and immigration is this country’s down fall. We are Bi-cultural by the design of our Forefathers yet we act as if our own history is a mistake. We must be able to accept and appreciate our histories of where we come from and were we are with out prejudice to either.
Now many people look to me as some kind of investigator of injustice and nothing could be further from the truth. Ernie you mentioned that the Adults should be punished for crimes committed by there children as well, If that is to be so than what about this Ernie. If we can prove Law Enforcement and judicial officers have committed crimes against society is it not fair than to hold there supervisors accountable also? You see people to understand what I have uncovered you are asking the wrong person to explain the injustices to you. Ask the Author of the missing 80 page motion from the Juarez murder trail that details the Prosecutorial and Judicial Misconduct that currently exists in our Santa Barbara Superior Court rooms, ask Karen Adkins for her opinion. She has in detail giving example after example of illegal actions by our District Attorneys office as well as Judge Brian Hill. Mr. Salomon Before I earn the write to appear on your T.V. show lets get Miss Adkins to give us her reasons for writing such powerful documents in regards to the mentor gang’s abuse of our youth. After all kids copy what they taught and Cam Sanchez is only teaching our youth that crime can get you what you want. I am also puzzled because where Gregory Paraskou the head of the Santa Barbara Public Defenders office in regards to better training his staff in dealing with these injustices. Now just yesterday there was a story in the news press about another one of judge Brian Hills cases that sentencing has been postponed. German Acosta is the defendants name and I know nothing of the case except Judge Hill has a problem getting through a single case with out procedure issues. Now get this Tara Haaland-Ford wants to review the transcripts for errors. First off she is Steve Balash’s partner and I believe part of the CDA. She was also involved in the 17 year old youth who was tried as an adult even though special allegations were denied. You see Ernie even though you feel the parents are not parenting I can show case after case were the parents are not allowed legal access to there children to even get involved, I can bring you case and documents to verify every single statement I make. The case I refer to above the youth was taken from juvenile hall to adult court all with out his parent’s knowledge or involvement that you claim they are negligent and not willing in there parenting duties, not being allowed is more like it.
I am sorry to keep referring to Mr. Salomon when I trying to make my point with all off you that chose to read this. I just tend to think we as a society have come to accept anything and everything that is put before us by the media print or Television in what ever cookie cutter fashion they chose. Take last week for instance. U.S.C. football announced the hiring of there new coach since Pete Carroll had resigned and was to be taking over as football coach for the Seattle Seahawks. U.S.C. named Lane Kiffin hiring him away from the University of Tennessee. Right away the media’s second installment of this story was about how Mr. Kiffin’s recruitment coordinator had made some questionable phone calls to the possible current Tennessee recruits. The coordinator had advised the recruits that if they followed through with there plan to enroll early at Tennessee that very next day there could be consequences to these actions, should they decide later that the new coach was not a good match for them or there skills. You see because of N.C.A. A. rules had the new incoming freshman recruits attended class there eligibility clock would have started ticking on the spot and that has a five year shelf life. So E.S.P.N. and the Athletic Director from Tennessee went on and on how underhanded the recruitment coordinators actions were, and I wondered to myself about this. First of all I felt it was the nature of the beast because when Tennessee fills there void well you can see a chain reaction that hiring would create. Second I noticed not a single other school or coach made a negative comment about what the coordinator had done, and that did not bother me. You see in the College sports world you would expect an all out effort to create your product number one or you hired the wrong person. That’s not to say nothing bothered me about the whole incident. You see College athletics is a Billion dollar industry and is quite frankly not a fair bargain for student athletes. So than my point is this: as a society should we have not been upset that the Tennessee Athletic director did not have the Morals to give the possibly new enrolling students the heads up as to the possible ramifications of there actions on there lives? Does he not have the obligation to say as of today we cannot meet our obligation to you as promised? Should he have not allowed them to pull there commitment until the coaching vacancy was filled and at the same time holding there scholarship until all parties involved could make an educated decision? Now for me the minute I heard the story that is what bothered me, and now that you have seen my view do you not also agree with me than.
Ok fine so than how does that media story relate to our current crisis right here is Santa Barbara? Well there is a charge against a lady for allegedly stealing 2700 dollars from some nuns who were evicted from there residence. Now what surprises me is that based on recent cases like Orson Mozes in a adoption scam that has 57 families victimized, yet is only charged with 17 felonies and further yet is only sentenced to 3 years 7 months in prison. Or how about David Abraham with 17 felonies charges, this man steals 2.1 million dollars and is to serve a total of 90 days jail time. My question here is, are there not a minimum prison time if convicted of X amount of felonies and why has our tough on the youth D.A. consistently taken it so lightly here. Now there are no less than 3 more embezzlement cases with a minimum of 400,000 in each case were just probation was ordered. I doubt all the alleged gang problems amounts to a cost near one tenth of any one these crimes yet we constantly make them the center of our media attention. Why is that ok with all of you I ask? It is like allowing Wall Street to steal 1.6 trillion dollars than complain about immigration. Or better yet why are we willing to spend 1.6 trillion dollars on what we do not even have one conviction yet we will not spend it on ourselves for better health care. Oh that’s right that is socialist program is it not? So than let’s keep funding the losing proposition of the United States post office heaven forbid we do not think of that as socialist (my sons college education teaching his father). So back to the nun story and what bothers me. First off the fact that District Attorney Perlin was on the case after he had taken a county deal to retire early, I have seen similar activity’s in other extremely corrupt cases were Mr. Perlin was involved with. My next concern is that Cam Sanchez for sending or corresponding with the defendant in a negative and threatening fashion, highly unethical and such is his way. No what really bothers me is that the need for funds even existed for these ladies of the church. You see the church had to sell the property where the nun’s resided to help pay for the settlements of molestation charges by the priest who had served Santa Barbara in the past. So they create a new sin to cover for an older and even bigger sin, to me that is the real story.
So jeers to “On Patrols’ new advertising for the new and upcoming season. You see Mr. Sanchez as a community we already have come to accept illegal use of force by those you over see and I see no reason for you to advertise it. Debate me or Karen Adkins on your patrol show and let us work to clearing up the mounting concerns over your past actions. In closing Marty Blum I lived here when Harriet Miller was involved with our City and you are no Harriet Miller. There is Magic in creating a better life for us all and I believe in Magic. If you like what I have shared please share it with others.

How long do we allow corruption from the Santa Barbara Public Defenders Office
Wow Santa Barbara Superior Court Judge Bill McLafferty has passed away yesterday. No mention of the illness or if it was expected in the Santa Barbara News Press story though. As a matter of fact the story is buried on A7 of today’s news press at the very bottom and nothing appears on the local court web page. I mean no disrespect but based on fact, his family law cases that I have either reviewed or been a victim too we can hope an improvement is forthcoming. Furthermore based on his corrupt ways in handing out illegal divorces I saw he was responsible for criminal law prior. I feel that he must have been the Judge Brian Hill previously and I say this because of his blatant abuse of our legal rites. I wonder what happen to the motion before the State Legislators to impeach him as a Judge for those very reasons? Now this ties into a note I wrote about ten days ago and this would be a great time to share that information with all of you. Governor Swchwarzengger appointed a new Judge for the Ventura Superior Court about ten days ago. The appointee now get this was selected from the most corrupt Judicial Court System in California, ours right here in Santa Barbara. According to the story I briefly glanced over he was employed by the Santa Barbara Superior Court as a research specialist lawyer. So based on all the criminal acts practiced in our judicial system here, where Prosecutorial Misconduct and Malicious Prosecution are a daily occurrence. How did Governor Swchwarzengger feel our cesspool was the appropriate place to select his next Judge from? I do apologize for not noting the new appointees name, I did trying searching for it on the web but came up empty.
I have felt that based on my personal experiences four years ago in local criminal court there are a vast array of abuses against our civil rights and due process here in Santa Barbara. I have made the accretion that Judges, Prosecutors, Public Defenders and even Private Practice Attorneys act in harmony with one another while abusing the defendant’s rights. A quick example I recently gave was to question why the media coverage of a preliminary hearing involving a minor Ricardo Juarez was allowed at all? I have said from the start that it was politically motivated and in a large part Cam Sanchez was to blame for what transpired based on his lack of action on the day in question. Now is it possible I can come up with another prime example that would show the harmony of our judicial officers in not putting there best defense possible? Well in the Juarez arraignment and while calendaring for a preliminary hearing department not one but two 170.6 motions were used in order to steer that proceeding to Judge Hills court Room, something that a Trial Judge does not oversee. Thee 170.6 motion is used to obtain a different Judge in this case claiming bias by the one presently assigned to over see the proceedings before him. For years now I have referenced the Efren Cruz case and the prosecutor Dozer’s possible misconduct in those proceedings. Now after the conclusion of the Juarez Trial and Miss Adkins charges I have this question for you all. Based on the history of misconduct proven and alleged why are the present attorneys representing any one in a Gang related case not practicing the 170.6 motion to remove Judge Hill from overseeing any proceedings? I question this based on Miss Adkins repeatedly filed motions and claims of misconduct against District Attorney Dozer and Superior Court Judge Brian Hill. I also question why if Mr. Dozer had to release Efren Cruz from prison did Miss Adkins not either ask he not be allowed to prosecute the Juarez case or at the very least use Dozer’s past actions in defense of Mr. Juarez? It was her claim from the start that they had the wrong defendant. Based on the lack of action with good cause to remove Judge Hill from further abusing his position during gang related trials, one might come to the same conclusion as me. Our Public Defenders office is simply going through the motions while allowing our district attorneys office to break the law.I also found an odd postcard stapled in the Juarez file during my last review. Juarez 1257189 People VS. Ricardo Juarez appellate NO B214315 dated March of 09, I need to further research that finding and learn the meaning of it. Getting back to preliminary hearings and Governor Schwarzenegger newly appointed Judge. If Judge McLaffertys illness was a known factor and given the fact that currently preliminary hearings involving murder can take one year to complete what does he have in his plans for us? You see one of the reasons Trial Judges such as Judge Ochoa or Judge Hill do not partake in arraignments and preliminary hearing proceedings is it would severely bottle neck the courts and create a unnecessary back log before the accused is legally bound over such as we have now. If 1 of 5 defendants was not held over for trial after the conclusion of there preliminary hearing, and said hearing took one year to complete. Some one was quite possibly jailed for a year of there life with out legal cause. I hope you can see the grave injustice that is created by allowing a year to pass before a proceeding is completed. Let us not forget it is also against court rules for that action to take more than 90 day s in the first place.
Now some may find the timing of my posting in bad taste and to you I share this. Immediately following the needless death of a D.A. investigator to a drunk driver I happened across the Santa Barbara Craigslist Rants& Raves. I was very surprised while reading the postings that three fourths of the postings were talking of there displeasure and belief of corruption from our District Attorneys office. It was at that moment I realized I would have a chance if I worked hard enough to expose the corruption, we have only just began. You cannot use Magic to make these issues go away.

What is in Magic's Heart, It's all about our youth
You see as it turns out I have to go to court and testify in a Civil Trial next week and that bothers me. Based on my experiences with the Courts and local law enforcement I have fears that something bad could come out of something that is already so wrong from the start. I will warn you now that this posting will be filled with smiles and a few loving tears because my life includes all of you. I first want to let you into some of my beliefs and the cost I bare for such convictions. Wow this opening up to you all on this first point is probably going to be the hardest thing I have ever shared about myself. About ten or eleven years ago one of my son had some medical problems regarding a growth in his nasal cavity.. He was a young teenager and so much braver than I could have ever been. Now I will be the first to admit an outsider might finish reading this story and say damn that was a lot of hard luck. No I have been blessed with this life and its experiences and because of that I was so well prepared for the challenge of these last four years. However as a parent my greatest hope was that because of my walk in life and how I dealt with it, my children would be able to leap frog to an even greater life. Now we did the medicine thing, the wait and watch thing and it was decided that an out patient procedure would be needed. My In laws and my Dad came up to Stockton and Julie and I were already so nervous as the day arrived. So here we are all at the hospital waiting for the good news and relief direct from the doctor’s mouth as he met us after the procedure. As I recall he spoke directly to my father in law Ken and I and that was when my worst fears were answered. As it turns out there was more to this growth than originally thought, and even after this procedure we new little more than before. The doctor told us it could be this or IT COULD BE THAT. If it was this it would entail that HOWEVER IF IT WAS THAT WELL IT WOULD REQUIRE A VERY SERIOUS OPERATION BY A VERY SPECIALIZED DOCTOR. Now as much as I have said I have enjoyed my life I never said it was easy. My wife and her mom waited for my son and ken and I left before them home but I already knew. I knew that because of how my life played out my son was not going to have an easy time of it and that ate at me. Now at the same time here in Santa Barbara my lifelong friends Joel and Sonya had learned there son Jason had leukemia and he was in for a battle that would finally claim his life. Let me tell you all how proud I am of Jason Huerta and how his heart and courage carried all of us through his ordeal. In one of our Fiesta trips home Jason saw me at De La Guerra Plaza and came up and greeted me. So brave and happy, I remember having to excuse myself several times as we chatted because I didn’t want him to catch me crying or see me wipe my tears away. As Jason and I talked I promised to visit him and bring him my prized Kobe Bryant rookie card. Some time passed and I was true to my word and went to his grandparents home to surprise him. He was much sicker than and I began to really worry if we would lose him to God. Jason told me he was off to the city of hope and he also liked my Redskins hat. I asked him to contact me once he and Sonya had got settled in and I would send him a hat as well. A few weeks passed and I got worried because I had not heard from Sonya or Jason so I called his Grandparents house. As it turns out he had slipped into a coma the day before and I was never able to say good bye or give him his hat before he passed. Now when you grow up buddies as Joel and I have you share many experiences, backing each other up in many areas. I was so hurt and felt Joel and Sonya’s pain I could not attend Jason’s funeral. You see while this was going on my son had to go through 3 or 4 more procedures and the operation was so delicate they feared his facial features could be altered. The tumor had grown to the size of a tennis ball and I was a wreck. You see I to feared even though it was so remote I could also lose my son to god. The problem was that during this time because I loved Joel, Sonya and Jason so much and respected there situation I could not ask God to love my son more than Jason. I did not know how to ask God for what I perceived was more than what I had a rite too. I did not feel that my needs no matter how personal to me they were, did not make them greater than any one else. I hated myself for this view yet I believed who was I to think my needs were more important even if it meant I might lose my son. To this day I doubt my ex wife, my son’s or family ever understood what I was going through. It is a complex point to make and I hope some how you can understand what I am trying to share.
A couple more quick stories and I will finish. Have any of you ever heard of the littlest hobo that lived in Santa Barbara ? Well 25 years ago or there about Julie and I were downtown shopping around Christmas time and we saw what looked like a homeless couple with an infant baby. I was cold that day so when I say the baby in a tee shirt Julie knew right away I wanted to give the couple money. We walked a very short distance and Julie said how about we buy the baby a blanket or some cloths, she knew it was bothering me. We turned around and looked and looked but we could not find the couple or the baby. Well a few days later the story in the Santa Barbara New Press read “ The Littlest Hobo had died”. In the time it takes to blink an opportunity could be lost and losing 1 more child is 1 child to many. Now I know that was not my fault but could we have made a difference? Please don’t wait any longer in dealing with our youth. If there are things we can do, don’t stop those who are trying because of selfish or petty reasons. Some times in life things are bigger than our own needs and our failing to recognize this can and does have a harmful effect on all of us.
I have never shared my thoughts about my son or Jason with anyone but God before tonight. I am not sure that the story is even relevant other than to say I am harder on myself than anyone could be. That what I believe in my heart shows through my actions. Never let a man with no vision tell you what you can see, never let a man who has sold out his true beliefs be the standard in which you seek to obtain. We are better than what we have shown but we must begin to show just how much better we can be. We are Americans and it is sad and it is true we have a gang problem, an American youth gang problem. What is yet to be determined is how we will go about correcting and interacting with the role society has already played. Regardless of blame our youth do not rise with the sun each morning and asking for the abuse’s they have been exposed to. How do we go about solving such a dilemma?
One last story and I will leave you alone until my next posting. Many years ago Julie and I had decided on the New Year to bite the bullet and buy our family our first computer. It was to be considered everyone’s birthday present for the year. So he man dad sets the computer up and to my surprise it actually worked. With my elementary school aged child Manuel looking on I was stuck and could not get to where I wanted to go.. My son tried to offer his opinion and I cut him off. Several more minutes pass and my frustration was growing. There was Manuel trying to share something with me and I repeatedly kept cutting him off. Finally with a little fatherly attitude I turned to my son and said” Son I am trying to learn this so I can teach you”. My son said “dad you need to hit file so you can exit and get where you want to go”. We cannot expect to understand or improve our view of what our youth feel with out there interaction. It would not surprise me that after we get ourselves out of our own way our youth can and will lead us to the type of society in the future that the history books will praise for all eternity. You see the true Magic is in there hearts and brains and they will not fail us.
All I ask is that if you like what I have shared with you please share it with others, failing our youth is not an option.

Ernie Salomon please teach me a solution for this Corruption our youth face
January 7, 2010
Wow was I upset, agitated and quite possible even pissed off when I read Ernie Salomon’s letter to the Santa Barbara news press on page A8 today. I read it again and did some thought, I read it again and thought some more. The part that angered me was “The local Mexican gangs and the punks “ . Than he goes on to say “the mayor. City council, schools, and police are not baby sitters”. I would agree with that because those he has mentioned are involved with corruption and murder and must be held accountable. I than started to think how I could best apply his view and put a positive spin on it with out sinking to his level. Now folk’s that is not easy for me but I think it will gives us the power to rise above such views no matter how strongly I disagree. So my first thought was if Ernie and his wife went to a marriage counselor he would never introduce his wife as my ho and expect positive results. What his remarks reflect to me is; hey how did the fire get to the point were it caused so much damage? So there fore I am taking a risk in saying he is not really interested in solving anything but rather keeping some type of blame alive as the reasons for what must be his unhappiness regarding Mexicans. I than have to ask you all is it me or does Ernie just like to pour gas on the existing flammable situation? As I was doing some more thinking I thought maybe I should say Thank You for the Ernie Salomon’s in Santa Barbara for making my point for me. You see Ernie Salomon is an American and as it turns out it is has a god given right of free speech. No matter how strongly I disagree or even find his remarks rather ignorant for a man of his stature. It is the very same god given rights I practice of free speech when I call for Cam Sanchez’s job based on the political games being played on our youth here in Santa Barbara. At this time though I don’t feel Mr. Salomon has to be wary of vendetta justice as I or Gil Armijo or any of our youth that were witnesses to the needless death of Angel Linares are exposed to.
I have just returned to reread Mr. Salomon’ remarks again and that is when my heart grew heavy. You see some times he my haste to being condescending I to can miss what is truly important. Here is how Mr. Salomon’s full paragraph read.
“ The local Mexican gangs and the punks are mostly a result of parents who do not parent. In the mix are unwed mothers, single mothers and other parents, many of whom do not understand there duties.”
After rereading that all I can say is who in the hell does this ignorant bastard think he is making such a bold and asinine statements. Please Mr. Salomon tell me how to teach the parents of 4 east side youth families to better deal with the deaths of there son’s. Damn it Mr. Salomon I did not hear you speak at one funeral, did not see one police man or city official even comment to the sadness of these youth that would rather commit suicide than deal with your brand of justice. I have yet to hear Cam Sanchez or our school offer grief counseling or better intervention to prevent such sad and needless deaths. You are telling me a parent that there is no stone I will not over turn to bring those responsible to justice, you are a bigger fool than the words you wrote earlier. You said the result of parents that do not parent hum. I say the result of leaders who do not lead; I say the result of policy makers not being held accountable. Mr. Salomon you arrogant man tell me how many children arrived at school today and asked to have there dream smashed, how many kids asked for there parents to be ridiculed because when they did seek assistance in regards to there children and they would get humiliated for attempting it. How many of the 149 federal violations in regards to our local education were caused by bad parenting? Or Mr. Salomon was the true cause the bad implementation of federal guidelines to suit the abuse of local government? I see where you have offered up blame yet with no offer of work or effort to a solution. It must be easy to step out side get wet from the falling rain and than be so bold as to call yourself a whether man.
About a week ago I wrote a post and said the corruption I am investigating was not my idea but once again I am guilty of not thinking things all the way through you see I missed a great opportunity to talk about what really happen. My post should have read; Karen Adkins American felt that Ricardo Juarez American was having his rights violated by Judge Hill American. 14 American Attorneys also agreed with Miss. Adkins American so that they wrote the local American D.A. and told her. In all my research I have yet to find the prosecutor or the defense refer to any one involved with young Angel Linares death by using the term punks or Mexicans so Mr. Salomon why do you find the need?
As I sit here I can only wish for the strength of those east side parents and what the must tolerate just to get by day by day. I spoke with my friend Gil and I reminded him that as grown men he and I have had a tough time dealing with our injustices but again we are grown men. How can I have been beaten and rushed by ambulance in a facility full of cameras and yet no report or witnesses to allow me to charge those who thought they could harm or deter me or my efforts of justice. How can The Juarez family speak of the American dream and as you call it live up to there responsibilities as parents when there son was paraded illegally and just morally wrong.
Let me ask you folks a question. If you are not legally charged with a felony until the conclusion of a preliminary hearing; how than could the media be allowed by the Judge, D.A., County Counsel, Public defenders office or City Council to cover the event of a 14 year old not yet legally charged with a crime for the media? When you review the lack of police intervention with the abuse that followed in the media it smells of political games at the cost of one life that day, How could everyone involved violate not only Juarez but every juvenile involved or not involved for that matter? A preliminary hearing is also known as a probable cause hearing and even during a trial if presumed innocent until convicted would that not be further violation of his parents right to protect there child? So Mr. Salomon with your obvious vast knowledge on the lack of effort by our “ Mexican parents” what tips could you provide to help them see through the troubles of “Your Justice” Because it was about Politics and riding our youth innocent or guilty for the maximum exposure. I hope that makes sense to you all because it sure pisses me off. I am only just beginning, I promise you that. Now if I could think of this and it makes sense to you do we really have to be a lawyer to know it was wrong and illegal?
Truth be told every single person that I have asked now about the Juarez media coverage agrees with me100% that our children were used and everyone responsible to prevent that from happening just allowed it as if they were throwing out the paper. Mr. Salomon please in all your wisdom demonstrate the proper parental techniques needed for the above described abuse because that chapter is missing from my parent duties book 101. In closing let me talk about someone who does protect this country. I am speaking about on of the leading environmental Attorneys the Department of Justice in Washington D.C. has, in fact one of the best in the country period. His name is Jeff Prieto just another throw away Mexican or wait maybe if our youth is served one of our future leaders of this Country. Sorry to name drop on you but maybe there is more to his story than I am willing to sharing with you all write now, ask around for yourself because I am just getting started. This was not how I wanted to start the Year of the Magic but I fill these things needed to be shared. If you like what I wrote please share it and tell others.

Prosecutorial Misconduct Complaint follow up letter against the Santa Barbara District Attorney
January 5th 2010
Office of the Chief Trial Counsel
State Bar of California
1149 Hill Street
Los Angeles California 90015-2229
To Whom It May Concern:
I am left wondering why my complaint filed last December 09 has not been acknowledged as having been received yet. I have also learned that there are or have been several grave concerns regarding Prosecutorial Misconduct by our Santa Barbara District Attorney and her Office. Including attorneys practicing as or for the Santa Barbara District Attorneys office after having accepting an early retirement offer from said county that included public money as a bonus for doing so. I keep records of my concerns on my blog @ www.santabarbaracriminalcourtcorruption.blogspot.com as well as a long list of email friends. If and when you review my blog it will be quite clear my complaint was indeed mailed early last December 09. If for some reason you claim to not have received it yet please notify me by phone since it is in regards to the serious crime of Misconduct and falsifying evidence and sentencing the wrong defendant during a murder trial. It also is in regards to a beating I took that neither the local law enforcement or our local Public defender office would investigate. I have enclosed a copy of that complaint so as you can reference the materiel discussed in my original format.
Sincerely
