iePolitics: An update on ET Snell

I received notification today that ET Snell has been transferred out of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s jail system.  Some may remember our local clown made a threat to rape the city of Bell clerk.  It seems to me he accepted a plea deal for about three years.  He has been in custody almost a year.  We can only hope he has been transferred somewhere where he can get the help he needs.

VVDP: Local ‘clown’ headed to trial for allegedly threatening Bell city clerk

March 18, 2011 3:50 PM

DOWNEY • A local activist who regularly dresses as a clown to confront elected officials is headed to trial for allegedly threatening the city clerk of Bell.

Edwin Thomas Snell, 64, was held to answer on one felony count of making criminal threats.

Snell of Apple Valley, who already has two prior felony convictions, was arrested in October by Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies.

After a preliminary hearing Thursday, Commissioner Burt Barnett at Downey Superior Court ruled there was enough evidence to hold Snell for trial.

Breaking news from SharonTheUnionMole . . .

ET Snell, our not-so-favorite clownsta, has been taken into custody and is in a Los Angeles County jail.  His bail has been set at $1 million.

Rumor has it that he was arrested for terrorist threats (imagine that!) in connection with the city of Bell.  Looks like Los Angeles County officials have a few more cajonies than San Bernardino County officials.

ET phone home . . . better yet, please don’t.

iePolitics: Al Vogler and ET Snell

Back during those few months in 2008 when I was part of the dark side, ET Snell and I would talk a lot by phone about local politics.  He often related it to his life from childhood through adulthood.  He talked about the abuse he suffered at the hands of his father and all the time he spent institutionalized from an early ago.

ET has a love/hate relationship with law enforcement.  By this time he had become “friends” with Al Vogler. Continue reading

Fred Karger: Californian’s Against Hate

Editor’s Note:  This is a mailing list I ended up on I suspect due to the post I wrote about Chris Lancaster.  For the record, in addition to ET, Al Vogler, and Barb Stanton, Assembly District 59 candidates Chris Lancaster, Ken Hunter and Tim Donnelly all participated in one aspect or another of the very bigoted campaign against Anthony Riley and/or Corey Calaycay.  I’ve got the emails to prove it in case they try to deny it.  Anyway, I really don’t hate Mormons.  I have always had a lot of respect for them.  But I had a huge issue with both Chris Lancaster, who is a Mormon, and Tim Donnelly, who I don’t believe is Mormon, preaching God and then participating in such hateful work.

Statement by Fred Karger, founder of Californians Against Hate, re Guilty Finding by the California Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) Against the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church) Case #08-735

SACRAMENTO, CA – Today the FPPC, in an unprecedented ruling against the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, found the Salt Lake City based Church guilty on 13 counts of late campaign reporting.  The Mormon Church was fined $5538 in an agreement worked out ending the 19 month long investigation.  The Church was the primary backer of California’s Proposition 8, which ended gay marriage in California two years ago.   The Mormon Church initially admitted to spending only $2078 to pass Prop 8.  When I filed my sworn complaint on November 13, 2008, they instantly attacked me.

iePolitics: Really ET?

So, you are trying to tell me that your bigoted, hate-filled tirades against public officials and candidates alike were all your own idea and Al Vogler and Barb Stanton have nothing to do with it?  The three of you were a part of stalking candidates, including their families and young children, and making outrageous claims.

So ET and Al, is it true you two are having a homosexual affair?  That is what we are hearing.  We hear that once you two were discovered together, you went on this rampage against anyone you thought might expose you.  Inquiring minds want to know.

Al, your daughter gets on here and claims that all elected official have to do is “come clean” about their sexual preference.  Well Al, I think it is time you come clean.  If members of the Board of Supervisors have to tell you what they do behind closed doors, then it is only fitting and proper that you tell us what you and Rita or you and ET do behind closed doors, don’t you think?

You don’t like it when the tables are turned on you, do you?  Give it some time, Al.  You, Barb and ET have gone too far this time around.  Your time is coming.  And we don’t stoop to the unethical and illegal behavior that the three of you do.  Truth will prevail, sooner than you think.

And here is a screen shot from YOUR website ET to prove your affiliation with Barb: Continue reading

iePolitics: Is Supervisor Brad Mitzelfelt the “next one to be taken out”?

I have to hand it to Al Vogler, Barb Stanton, ET Snell and their handful of supporters.  Yesterday’s primary marked the second major election in a row where this small, but vocal, group has managed to take out a well-financed candidate they do not like.  Two years ago they focused on Hesperia City Council candidate Mark Kirk, handing him a third-place finish.  This year their objective was to keep Anthony Riley out of the state Assembly.  And they succeeded.

We hear that Al and company now have their sights set on First District Supervisor Brad Mitzelfelt.  In the afterglow of their most recent accomplishment, today Al has apparently been bragging about his past success with Postmus, Kirk and Riley and future plans for Mitzelfelt.  One must remember that Supervisor Mitzelfelt handed Rita Vogler, Al’s wife and Hesperia City Council member, a humiliating loss in the June 2008 primary, so this has the potential to become even more personal.

iePolitics: Who said that BOS members are not intelligent?

It seems that today the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors approved a pilot project to bring a closed-circuit audio/video system to the high desert so that local residents do not have to drive to San Bernardino to participate in board meetings.  Price tag:  $70,000 . . . a heck of a lot cheaper than medicating ET Snell.

Ken Hunter: ET Snell

To Whom It May Concern,
 
I have become aware that an individual known as E.T. Snell has been relentlessly harrasing public officals and candidates for the legislature. Mr. Snell is not, and never has been, a part of the Hunter Campaign. He is not, and never has been, authorized to speak on behalf of the Hunter campaign or act on behalf of Hunter campaign.
