iePolitics: Havasu Lake and San Manuel

I have been involved with too many other things lately to pursue either of these issues, but since both bands of Indians contribute heavily to the political process in San Bernardino County it is time to return to the subject.

One of the accusations I hear frequently is about the number of deaths on these reservations that are overlooked or covered up.  No wonder considering the amount of gifts and contributions made to county officials, including the District Attorney. Continue reading

iePolitics: The Sheriff’s Private Stock

Don’t worry Rod, I’m waiting to write about it in detail.  Actually, since so many of your staff members read the blog and I know the title will catch their eye, I thought I’d use it for now.  What I’m really looking for is some intel regarding fraud and corruption going on in the department right now.

Is it true that Sergeant Beavers retired?  If so, has he been criminally charged yet?

Is it true that a complaint has been filed with the District Attorney’s office regarding Captain Grey?  If so, when did that happen?  And what has happened to all of those who received falsified POST certificates?  Seems to me this is a real scandal that should involved criminal charges for all who participated.  Huh Rod?

iePolitics: For those who accuse me of being too melodramatic regarding Mike Ramos

Some of you have accused me of melodramatics or of simply writing what I write to support Jim Erwin and Bill Postmus.  What some of you don’t realize is that long before I ever got to know either one of them, I, like so many others, knew of San Bernardino County District Attorney Mike Ramos as “being the most corrupt politician” in San Bernardino County.

Mike didn’t wake up in the middle of the night in 2008 and decide, “tomorrow I’m going to begin a life of corruption.”  Mike has ALWAYS been corrupt. Continue reading

iePolitics: So who will be the next District Attorney?

Well once again I will have those who will suggest I need to take my meds but they usually consist of Adam Aleman and Ramos’ family, friends, and hatchet men.  So, since crooks and liars do little to persuade me, here is my prediction as to the next District Attorney.

The truth is I’m not sure.  What I do know is that the next District Attorney to be sworn into office will not be elected by the voters of the county of San Bernardino but rather appointed by the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors to finish out current District Attorney Mike Ramos’ term of office.

InlandPolitics: Developer charges may have been retaliation

Posted March 17, 2010 at 9:24 am

Information coming out related to the corruption probe being conducted by the San Bernardino County District Attorney is raising serious questions this morning.

Sources with knowledge into one of the cases says information turned over to the defense for High Desert developer John DeFazio may clear him of charges.

According to well-placed sources the District Attorney has turned over documents which show developer Michael Gallagher was actually raising funds for DeFazio’s Inland Empire PAC. A copy of a check made out to the committee was addressed to the PAC in care of Gallagher, who told prosecutors he had nothing to do with the committee. Gallagher’s denial of any involvement led to one perjury count against. Continue reading

iePolitics: So Devereaux and BOS Members . . .

You say you want transparency and to clean up corruption in San Bernardino County.  So, when are you going to do something about one of your own—our very own Director of Human Resources, Andrew Lamberto?

Lamberto lied under oath at the Preliminary Hearing for Rex Gutierrez.  Unfortunately, at the time Rex’s attorney did not know about the memo that Lamberto authored regarding the issue of time card fraud and exempt employees.  But he know now!  And from what I’ve heard, he has subpoenaed it. Continue reading

iePolitics: “Attorney General Brown Charges Ramos with Fraud”

Ok Publius, before you jump on my case about taking meds, perhaps you should reconsider the advice you give your boss.  Generally, before charging and arresting individuals, investigators investigate.  It’s not the other way around, i.e., conducting the investigation after the arrests are made.  Not to mention the fact that you have libeled and slandered at least six politicos/businessmen in the community without just cause to promote Mikey’s political career.

So, now the District Attorney and Attorney General want the county to relinquish its attorney/client privilege so it can get around to investigating the Colonies settlement.  Duh!  Why didn’t I think of that? Continue reading

iePolitics: Thank You Again

Just wanted to once again say thank you to all of those that have helped out.  I still can’t call out on my phone (it’s a programming error in the phone that Verizon can’t correct until I back up the phone, which I can’t do) and my computer time is extremely limited.  So for now, please accept this as a thank you and I will make it up in the future.
