Lake County Government Watch

See the problem is that Rivero simply doesn't understand how budgets work. He thinks you can 'move assets,' fund non-existent positions and the BOS will sign on. Time to wake up and smell the coffee ladies.
 

637,give it up little man, you don't have a clue, the BOS will only be rubber stamping this one, the money is not even a remote issue, and with a little basic budgeting adjustments it is a done deal. We know this hurts you, we know you know this spells the end of Mitchell 100%. But you have to come up with better stuff then that. Again nice try but you are way out of your league!!
 

Post 6:31 pm, that says it all right there. What you are saying is that the only reason anyone does anything is so that they gain something personally. So I will ask, what is it that you have to gain by supporting Mitchell who has screwed the public for so long? What has he promised you?
As for me, please tell me what I got out of being the president and vice-president of the DSA for as many years as I did it besides lack of sleep and heartache? I did it because I thought it was the right thing to do and to help the members. I expected nothing in return, something I would guess you don't understand.
 

Word Kip!!! Word!! thanks for keeping these punks in line!!
 

You know the funny thing is we don't have to entertain a single word these Mitchell boys have to say, they are toast now, we are just giving them a break by letting them talk at all!!
 

6:37 I'm thinking you're the one who doesn't understand how budgets work as in the article on Baxter's support of Rivero states that Kelly Cox believe's the Under Sheriff position is feasible. Simply get rid of the vacant Captain and Lt. positions and use that money to pay for the Under Sheriff position. If that doesn't work then I'm sure Kelly can assist in making it happen. Heaven knows Rod went to the board enough times jockeying positions to justify salary raises for his buds. Note to Kip, you are such a breeath of fresh air, I love when someone has the balls to tell it like it is. I knew from the start that you worked hard for us and it was totally shameful that the people you fought for couldn't appreciate it. There are good people in the Sheriff's department but there are more that are not. Kip thank you for all those years of doing what was right even though you got shit on in the end. You have a big spot in my heart for it.
 

oops that was suppose to be breath of fresh air..... sorry Kip
 

My my Jack Baxter and Frank Rivero, now that is a blow right up Mitchell's ass!! he hehe
 

Correct me if I'm wrong, I am going a little off topic here, but someone mentioned that convicted felons can not vote. Is this factual? I know they can't possess firearms or ammo but did not know about the voting ban. Can someone answer this? BTW, I'm not a felon, just curious. Thanks.
 

Mitchell tick tick tick . start packing and enjoy your last days you arrogant prick .
 

In California, some criminal convictions have no impact on your voting rights at all. Other kinds of convictions may temporarily take away your right to vote. The only time you are not eligible to vote is if you have a felony conviction and you are still in state prison or on parole.

If you have a felony conviction, you CAN vote if:

* you are on probation, or
* you have completed your probation, or
* you have completed your parole.


For all the answers on California Felon Voting Rights, the California Felon Party Website has all the laws, regulations and answers as to who in California that is a felon needs to
know about felon's voting rights.

Before you yell "crime" lets look at Rivero's exact statement. The RB stated, "IF elected Sheriff, Francisco Rivero WOULD like to bring back the position of undersheriff and ASKED Jack Baxter to fill those shoes." I see no quote from Rivero actually giving Baxter the position.

Reading on, Baxter's statement was, "The rumor that candidate Rivero has approached me and asked me if I would be interested in serving as his undersheriff if elected is true. He has made me no promises and everything I have told him I have told the incumbent, showing no favoritism."

I see no difference in that to a Sergeant telling a cop from another agency that he would be a good LCSO deputy and if he would be interested in applying.

So before you state Rivero is breaking the law, read the article first.

***Rivero4Sheriff***
 

Mitchell makes less than 100k a year so what makes you think a Under Sheriff would make more? Also there is currently one captain and two lieutenant's positions open. The only lieutenant is Hall who may be retiring soon. All Rivero has to do is close the captain position and one lieutenant position and that there would pay for the Under Sheriff.

***Rivero4Sheriff***
 

Mitchell Needs to go, thats a given
But Rivero is far from the God you all seem to think he is
He will use/step on whom ever he needs to get the ultimate result
Then talk crap behind their backs, after some gave everything they had to give
It will be the same as we have, only different. You know that old saying....
"The More things Change, the More they stay the same?"
But at this Point, Barney the Dinosaur would be better than Mitchell
But what a hell of a price to pay
Lake County is making a deal with the Devil
God Help Us All
 

well 4:21 I don't believe anyone thinks Rivero is a God, and I'm sure he has his quirks and downfalls just like the rest of us but he's honest about us needing change and he seems sincere in wanting to make that change. As for your comment about us making a deal with the devil, well opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. Thank God we live in a free country where we can have the right to think and vote for ourselves.
 

Hello post 421
The Devil is Rodney K. Mitchell himself !!!!!! We the taxpayer/voters have had to put up with Mitchell and his shit head, buddies for fifteen years. Fifteen years of Mitchell lying about everything. Fifteen years of Mitchell protecting his friends and those that kissed his butt. So say goodbye to Mitchell, and say hello to Sheriff Rivero and undersheriff Baxter !!!!
 

You people are too much. Does anyone know what the definition of consider is? I'm all for Rivero and also want Mitchell out. But day after day I read these blogs and wonder how it is so many can jump the gun on given issues. Wording plays alot in statements and the wording is Baxter will CONSIDER the position of undersheriff. I can only hope everything goes the way we all want it to and that Rivero and the BOS reinstate such position and Baxter does accept it!
 

4:21- I don't believe these folks think he is God. It's just a long overdue change that they believe in and he just so happen to be the one to stand up to Mitchell. It was the small smattering who stood on the courthouse steps during the Dinius trial who had the guts to show their disappointment in our LE and DA and from that point the ball went a rolling! During political times and during the process of a campaign toes will be stepped on and for good reason. The fight is on and there are many that will be offended but the results will hopefully be what the people have wanted for quite sometime. Don't think for a minute from the point that our new sheriff takes office that these folks won't be watching his every move! Eyes are open and so are ears and I don't believe our next sheriff will get away with the crap that Mitchell has gotten away with for many of years!
 

All leaders need a loyal second that will tell them the truth. Others make themselves king. If Baxter is second, His honesty will haunt Rivero if need be. That is if Officer Rivero is less than we think he is. I choose Officer Rivero the unknown over the one I know.
 

was that Mitchell in Middletown yesterday afternoon, waving at passer by's on hwy 29? He had a little kid with him holding a sign? Anyone know?
 

Good morning Lake County, what a great day of comments and news yesterday, another turning point in the quest to remove Mitchell and bring change to the county. Now we want to address post 740 of this morning briefly.

Your post is fine, but we just need to educate you a little bit on the acumen we call politics and change. The use of the word consider, you should know that consider in the political world combined with the hard hit Baxter put on Mitchell yesterday in the article, really is saying it is a done deal. Next the BOS has no play in the undersheriff, although we know the basic stand is the BOS has to approve it. This is a sone deal, the BOSis simply a rubber stamp to the plan Rivero will put forward. You should know that whenever there is a new organizational head in place he or she has cardblanche in their first 6 months to a year. Why you ask? Because the established government members will not take the hammering of stopping the new guy from putting his plans in place. The money will be allocated and that is the least of any issues. Baxter is doing the exact thing all politicians do, even though none of these players are true politicians they are playing by the same rules and formats. Baxter is playing the role correctly by being somewhat coy. No problem there as well, but in the end this plan will play out just as described.
 

No need for a eduacation here Oliver. I 'm fully aware of the acumen of polotics and change! We all want change thats a given. Baxters article of stating the position is talking future and I'm quite aware this is exactly how it will play out. Those posting are speaking as though he has already taken the position and thats not at all what was said! This is where confusion sets in with most. What is true to be said and what is repeated! Thats all I was getting at. But thanks for trying to teach the teacher :) We are on the same team
 

I understand what your saying 9:37- although, I don't believe those posting are thinking of grammer or writing skills lol. It is refreshing to see there are eduacated people posting as yourself and it is appreciated! Most of the corrupt supporters feel the only ones that post our that of druggies, and criminals!
 

Oh we know we are on the same team, that message was more for the other viewers. We do agree that we should not jump the gun and call it a done deal, that as well can tend to "put off" persons like Baxter who wants to play this out on his own terms, which is fine. And you are correct in that it should not sound so much like it is a done deal, that tends to push people in the wrong direction. Shall we just say the days are looking brighter!!:-)
 

We want to welcome our newest member to the Manifest....Anon has signed up as a member of the paper, and we appreciate that very much. There is no cost to sign up, and the process is simple and quick to do. The sign-ups and support are so important to us and the growth of this cause of change and transparency. Anon thank you so much for signing on, and we urge everyone to do so and help support the Manifest and change in our county.

The Manifest staff and members
 

Yes Oliver, that was my point exactly! :) Thanks!
Nighthawk :)
 

Is this the same Anon from SA? If so, welcome my friend and thanks again for all your help! If not, we welcome anon also :)
Nighthawk
 

A voter for Mitchell is another 4 years of a guy who can't manage his staff.

In just on term we have seen 1 lieutenant resign and go to Napa and another fired. A captain fired, two sergeant's fired and the promotion of one lieutenant who never supervised any patrol deputies. Mitchell's head dispatcher resigned and the head of the jail moved to an office doing nothing to do with corrections.

Yeah we really want four more years of that!

Rivero will clean house and stop the GOB's.
 

Read Baxter's comments again and look at his past debates (I did). Baxter wanted to make changes that almost mirror's Rivero's. The only thing that separates the two (besides age) is that Rivero shows the peoples anger in Mitchell and Baxter is more of the "grandpa" trying to calm the storm.

We have all been to Baxter's site and seen his impressive background from running organizations such as the San Jose PD's POA to others. He is a great assets to Rivero's future staff if appointed as U-Sheriff.

Don't forget Mitchell still has to answer to a civil court in the Dinius case, Bealand's case, Garzoli's case and the numerous EEOC complaints.

Rivero4Sheriff
 

yes the same great Anon who has been with us and keeping the SA updated. We are happy happy happy to have Anon as a member!!! Yaaaaaaaa!!

Thanks Nighthawk....;-)

By the way Rivero-4-sheriff you are as usual right on the mark.....
 

This is the Lovelace group: We have followed up with the CHP this morning concerning the situation Bryan Smith and the Middletown accident. The CHP has sent their initial report to the DA, and they indicated to us they do not have the Toxi. reports, we think this is true only in the sense that they have sent it all off to the DA. We are now going to follow-up with the DA on their information given to them, and follow up and where they are in their own investigation. We will keep you updated on the Manifest and the Blog as we get more information. Just wanted to let everyone know we have not dropped the ball on this one, and that we suspect it is going to be like pulling teeth to get the information.
 

Just a quick comment, although Deputy Smith was involved in a tragic incident...I hope that he receives some help. Having worked with him for several years, I know that he is genuinely a good person. Conversely, that does not make him a good deputy or a sound decision maker. With that being said, I hope he gets the help he desperately needs and the support he deserves from his peers.
 

Follow-up with the DA now thats a joke! Is their anyone left within that office who will be honest with you? But thanks for not dropping the ball.
 

As some of you may know Conrad was on the radio show this morning with Steve, and this was concerning the situation with the radio station and its operations etc. Conrad did a great job, and to put it in a nutshell, there will be a public meeting I am sure Conrad will let us know the exact time and location to review the station, its model for operation and the future, in what we hope will be based on the citizens input, not just Andy's and others within that network. Great job by Conrad, and by the way if you haven't caught Conrad's show on the radio. You should!!
 

I agree with you 12:24 on getting him help. That being said, with the poor decision he made that morning, I feel he should not be in the position of LE. Either way you look at it, he broke a law and how many other times has it happened and he just didn't get caught. He should find another line of work...
 

Ya 12:25 that is the reality, in due time now the doors of transparency will be much further opened, as Anderson moves into position at the head. Not dropping the ball doesn't always mean you will get information eh..;-)
 

Stephen Carter gave a citizens oversight board meeting last night as we had posted, and there was some very interesting information put out in regards to the PD's and the system of operation and the conditions that exist in the county legal and court system. We will be posting an article on the Manifest today or tomorrow along with Mr. Carters overviews and ideas. Should be interesting reading.
 

It is a fair point post 1224, and ours is not the goal of discrediting him, but to simply get the facts out and to the public. If Mr. Smith does have issues, we to hope that help is made available and the end game is a positive one.
 

I just wish Baxter was 20 years younger, as in my humble opinion, he would have been the best choice. As to Baxter being the Under Sheriff, that all sounds wonderful and great, but think about this folks.....

Mr. Rivero has not been in the employment of the LCSO for more than a few years. Mr. Baxter knows none of the players... And If you don't think Mitchell still can pull the Puppet Strings with certain GOB's from afar and after he is out of Office, you are sadly mistaken.

Without someone in the Top Levels who knows the Rotten Apples from the Good Ones It's going to be PURE HELL. I guess we will just have to wait & see.
 

We suspect you are a bit paranoid post 1247, or it is a subtle way of posting as a Mitchell supporter. But the none the less, your comment of Rivero not being employed for a few years is silly and of course not based on fact. Mitchell pulling strings from afar is a reach at best, and the legalities of it are not something Rodney is going to want to deal with. You should also know that there are many many current SO's supporting Frank, and the "lay of the land and who is who" is already being looked at. So we suspect the please don't use caps "pure hell" comment is a gross over statement.
 

Any time you are looking for something rotten, Follow the smell. The good apples will lead the way to the bad. Not all bad apples are on top.
 

If it quacks and walks and craps like a duck, you can bet it is a duck. In this case a lame duck.
 

Have anyone in mind 12:47? Not too many know who they can trust and who they can't since this whole campaign started!
 

The public defender citizen oversight article based on the meeting last night is up on the front page of the Manifest, very interesting and going to generate a lot of comments we suspect. This article was reviewed as well by Carter prior to posting, and we appreciate his time in doing this for the paper. There are some big issues still facing inmates and PD's in Mitchell's regime and it is not pretty.
 

Trust is earned after change happens, it wipes the slate clean if you will and then the decisions are made. Many will not be here, many will join the new leadership, even some of those who would surprise you. It all works out in due time, and Rivero has the understanding and leadership to handle that part of things well. You should also note Frank is not going to owe anyone anything when he takes office, the elitist network of Borgi and Rob Brown as well as the rest will be rendered dead, and a whole new system of transparency and citizen involvement will take place.

As a side note, Brown has already been rendered dead in the water, he has been called on the carpet by Grant and others and has been told to shut up and sit down. You may notice he hasn't been posting anymore, and we know when he post's as he can't hide his delivery. Over the course of the last few months The little cowboy has lost his horse. He is not running again, although we would love him to do so, as it would be funny stomping on him, but alas that will not be the case. The good news is Rob Brown is done, he will try a few things till he is out, but he will not move policy or decisions any more in the county.
 

Submitted poems are now up on the Manifest, we invite all of you to submit your creative creations, and we will publish you in the paper. Everyone is a poet in one way or another, and there is no judgement of anything submitted. The first two poems by the way are from a young man still in middle school, but because he was afraid friends might tease him for writing poetry we left his name off at his request. Take a read and throw this young man some "way to go's" we don't want any young creative juices going to waste!!
 

This is the Lovelace group. We want to pass on the new contact information for the Manifest, it is as follows:

The Lake County Manifest
P.O. Box 154
Upperlake CA. 95485

For those supporting the paper donations can be sent to this address, we also have the pay pal system up and running on the Manifest itself. This P.O. information will be posted on the paper as well. Not only can your donations be sent to this P.O. box supporting the citizens paper, but information or other items you want to send to the paper can be sent to this address also. Thanks to all of you for your suppport!!
 

Brown has been rendered ineffective...I love it. How do you like getting pushed around Rob, you have been a wanna be cowboy all your life. Now you are an overweight no-body and Lovelace has put you in your proper place. Why not just step down now Brown? You are not going to do the county any good at this point, and you have already done enough damage as it is. Your undying admiration for your boy Rodney has gotten you nothing. By the way can't wait to see your bail bonds business go down the tubes when you are not the only player is in place, that should make you real happy. Hey that can go along with your other tax and money problems that are posted on the Lake County portal. Have a nice day Brown. Thanks Lovelace
 

Hey 4:37,,,,please enighten us about this "Lake County portal" where I can see Brown's tax and money problems!
 

Sowhat has Cameron Reeves been doing as Chair of the PD for th last 5 years; since theGrand Jury report came out in 04-05??? Things are still the same; oh excuse me they put in a new phone system that doesn't work. Yeah! Meanwhile how many have gone with ineffective council.
Oh yes and also; they continue continue continue until it's 3 years in county jail until their case comes up. The inmate has been waiting to speak to his PD because he wants to go to trial. Gets to his court hearing; and because the PD hasn't given the inmate time to prepare for trial; tell the inmate, take the plea bargain and get your sentenced reduced to 3 years instead of 10. But but, what about my trial....Oh, says the PD you don't have a case [because he hasn't been there to hear your case] and doesn't meet with you for over 10 minutes in the whole 3 years. Right, PD's have a history of winning.
What is this???? Cameron Reeves has had 5 years to make it right. I don't understand.
Then, because the inmate has been incarcerated for 3 years in conditions that aren't fit for a dog; decides he can't be in this situation any longer and PLEADS to their bargaining. Is this fair? Oh and Deputy Smith; was he on prescription meds or self meds?
Why wouuln't he get the same treatment they give other people for being under the influence? Everyone should get help; they deserve help because of a disability they apparently have. RECOVERY/ DIVERSION......as recommended by the Judicial Department
but Lake County doesn't follow in this regard; incarcerate. So why wouldn't they incarcerate Smith or does he get special treatment? How rude. This county is so off track......so Cameron, if your'e reading this, if you are in a position to do something to change this disfunctional judicial system; please do so immediately.
 

News FLash; Judge Hedstrom issues warrant on a under the influence charge. The person he issued a warrant for is already in Cal. Rehab.Center, because of a relapse that happened in the same week. Since this person is an out patient of CRC [parole] and has another charge for being under the influence had to return for treatment. Judge Hedstrom receives a letter from this person, who advised him that he is back at CRC and cannot make an appearrance in his court; but Judge Hedstrom issues a warrant anyway? Which means Judge Hedstrom wants CRC to return him to Lake Co. for a hearing? For what? So he can be sent back to CRC for treatment, where he is already. The Judicial system should try harder to coordinate it's efforts a little more, save us taxpayers but mainly concern itself with getting the proper help for the person involved....since this IS the LAW...
 

Would this persons first name be Chris?
 

Post 451 that is a hard smack down and a good presentation of your views and insight. I think we will cut and paste that on to the Manifest article comment section if you don't mind. That is a lot of information most of the general public would not be able to discern. Thanks for the comment. What the poster is referring to is a lot of the issues that are in the article on the Manifest, from phone systems to a number of other issues. Again much of which centred around a Rodney Mitchell totally dysfunctional jail.
 

post 507 I got to tell ya, I just don't think the judges we have in Lake County are the sharpest sticks in the wood pile. I hope you can follow up with the Blog on how it goes for this person, and what the end game is. Please keep us informed!!
 

I don't have the exact web address for the Lake County portal, but if you go to the lake County home page and go to the tax collection etc portal or tax lien or collections portal you can find the information, someone showed it to me. But that was a month or so ago, and I did not get back to it. Hope that helps or if someone else can post the exact location so I don't have to hunt it that would be great. Oh Brown has problems there is no doubt about that. Much more then the little cowboy would like to admit.
 

Interesting post on the Manifest public defender article, think there is anything to this bizzare statement?

Re: Public Defender Oversight Committee Meeting: July 8

I have it on good auuthority that Hopkins wants to take over as public defender now that unemployment is rearing it's ugly head. He is generating false negative publicity for this reason. I hope this site doesn't unintentionally aid him. Last thing our county needs is Hopkins.
 

Over my dead body! Hopkins will no longer hold any position within this county as long as I live here. The clown can join the circus and thats about all he is good for!
 

Hopkins as public defender? Then ALL the criminals will run free.
 

lol guess thats it for you Hoppy, our out.
 

Just a word of thanks to a lot of people the Manifest has gone beyond 5000 views already, and we want to thank everyone who has supported and contributed to the launch of the paper. We are truly grateful, from all of us at the Manifest a big thanks to everyone. If you haven't signed on as a member of the news paper please do so, it is quick and easy and you can join the communities newspaper, and help us with the upcoming changes in our county. Thanks to everyone for their huge support.
 

Cameron Reeveves? just another shady person from my past. Brown,Reeves,Farrington,Grant.
"I don't want to quarrel with them,-To call them a liar,- but when I come aquare up to them I don't know what else to call them.If I must tell the truth out." A Lincoln.
 

We may not like it, but I heard it too. He wants to be able to say he has had experience on both sides and then he can try for judge. Wait and see.
 

good morning Lake County, yesterday was a big day on information sharing, and the PD story went viral on the Manifest, lots of comments lots of debate. Raised areal hornetsnest on that one. Obviously a subject which warrants more attention in our fair county. As so may have noticed a real dent has been put in the fender of the corruption supporters. it appears the Baxter potential reaqlly stung them.

Remember the rodeo parade is in Lakeport today, and Frank will be riding a beautiful hourse in the parade,and it should be another great day, of meeting and greeting the people, a great Rivero float as well don't miss it and get out there to support Frank.

This is Lovelace
 

6:24 PM If that rumor became serious I think I would pull my sign out in protest infront of the courthouse and I do believe there would be a huge turnout saying no more to Hopkins.
 

Anom is on vacation and enjoying every bit of it, will be back next week.
 

Great rodeo and parade today. Frank scored big, had a float, riding a horse, looked good, shaken hands, alot of yelling and screaming. The best part was when Mitchells boys were handing out balloons the Rivero supporters came by and told everyone to let go of their Mitchell balloons, ha ha about 20 Mitchell balloons flew off into the sky. A solid rejection of Mitchell. funny huh Mitchell your elitist network will no longer keep you in power, now you are trying to change yourself and go to the public. Sorry ain't going to work. LOL
 

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaa the Cuban Cowboy rides into the sunset victorious over black bart and the Mitchell gang!! Hell Mitchell couldn't even get a horse to ride!!!
 

That was because the horse has first right of refusal. LOL
 

lmfao now that was a good one 1:53
 

1:53 that was Too Funny!!!! Thank You :-)
 

Who in their right mind would let Mitchell hoist his fat butt onto their good horse?
 

Man what a great day for the parade and Frank scored big points on this on. Not only that but he has a non-stop schedule for the rest of the day and for weeks to come. Man Frank is on fire bit time a freight train could not stop this guy right now, he is head on and a firecracker right now.

Word on the inside from a couple of SO's is the minute the Baxter news broke they started getting real nervous. They are looking around see where they stand and what their options are. Man oh man there is some re-thinking going on within the corruption supporter ranks now. It is nervous time in Rodneyville right now!!!!

This is the Lovelace group
 

Go to this evenings Lake Co. Rodeo in Lakeport and watch Rodney waddle around trying to be a good old boy. He even has a cowboy hat someone loaned him. Show starts at 7: PM and its worth the price of admission just to see fat Rod do his thing while always under the watchful eye of his bride and being closely followed by Rob Brown to keep an eye on him.

Rivero is there also working the crowd and although his campaign button is not as big as Rod's niether is his head. He seems to be getting a good response from the people without having to strut around like a banty rooster.

I saw Baxter there also drumming cow chip bingo tickets for the rodeo and he looked like he was having a great time.
 

The Mitchell thugs have alreadt started working on Baxter trying to intimidate him to back their boy. Bad move Mitchie, I don't think a wimp like yourself will intimidate a man like that in any way. I think you'll just piss him off and send him straight to Frank's camp which is the best thing that could happen in this county.

The profeits of doom are whining that if Rivero is elected the county will be run by the dopers and illegal aliens will be flocking here in mass. The sky is falling at the same time.
 

Check out craigslist after the election for discount Rodney Mitchell polo shirts, pins, baloons and signs. He's going to need the money until he can butter up Garzoli for a job.
 

LOL best laugh of the day!!! post 401
 

Maybe Dave could teach Rod to fly a chopper.
 

Did rodney ride side saddle ?
 

Just remember ol Rodney is involved in the murder of Lynn Thorton by Russ Perdock . I can not wait until he is charged for his crimes .
 

The truth will out. Ring it in. Let us be the judge. one dishonest person for another one is not the answer. I'm for Officer Rivero but not if he is another Mitchell. That is what this local government is full of now. Dishonesty from top to bottom
 

No body can be as bad as Mitchell has been.
 

1242 Is that you Beetredrob or is that PattyMac? Has anyone seen the new republican office opening up on Brunetti's property? You know the old Bruno's-is that donated space for Mitchell's campaign?
 

Good morning lake looks like the big new of the day will be posted later on we some very interesting information on Hoppy, and a few of his potential plans for the future, you will find it quite interesting to say the least, that will be a later on in the day but wanted to give you all a heads up.
 

7:57 - details please on wingnut hq?
in the G.O shopping center?
 

July 8, 2010 12:34 PM

As usual someone had a grip aimed at the SO's and were complaining that at a area on soda bay rd there was an apparent wait due to a accident and that the posting person happen to see some LR from the SO at Kit's Corner and whined about WHY WEREN'T THEY DIRECTING TRAFFIC....and My reply was that that is now what they do, unless called to assisted an Outside agency they have their own jobs and directing traffic is not their main objective.

I see you finally have a follower/member named cromforever77. I thought you
would want to keep it a secret that your group is associating it's self with
white supremacy. When will we be seeing cromforever77 and KKKLINT's videos on
your site? Mitchell was lying when he said there wasn't any racists in your
dept and this proves it. I just didn't think you would be so bold and in your
face about it.
 

So,10:10 that sounds like tit for tat to me. Mitchell has the likes of KK Klint on his side and you find a 290 who supports change and you act as if the everyone is going to go "well shit, there is a 290 with a Rivero sign, I'm voting Mitchell and his KKK friends" SORRY, it ain't going to happen. No one likes 290's(sex offenders), 288's (child molesters) or 273.5 (spousal abusers) but you wonder how is Rivero suppost to control who is for or against him, just as Mitchell can't control the num-nuts who are for him. And who cares what "persuasion" the 290 is. If he is out of compliance then I hope you had him rolled up, if not... then shut the F**k up and do us all a favor Mr. I got the address and get him in custody for being out of compliance. Good try but it really wasn't all that impressive.
 

AMEN 11:05! 10:10 is that all you got?? No one can control that. It's not like the Rivero people are checking everything everytime they pass out a Rivero sign. Hey and since you are so smart, do as 11:05 says and turn him in or send the LCSO. What are you waiting for. Also you sound like R Brown and I thought you were told to stay off of here.
 

10:10 what did you check the address in to find a 290? Could it have been RIMS? Could it be your LE or is your BFF Von checking it for you? Regardless, after searching the recent arrests on line I didn't see any hispanic males who were arrested for 290 violation. So, either you're full of shit or you don't care that there is a out of compliance 290 proudly displaying his sign. As for Rivero being in violation of election campaign rules, well if you look up the County of Lake web page, find Article 45 Section 21-45 Regulations for Signs: look all the down to 45.3 subsection (X)then go to number 2 and in part it says "Signs on behalf of a political candidate who is successful in the primary election may be retained for the general election." May be retained for the General election....that means for you tiny minded deputies and R. Brown that the sign can be left up until the next time we vote in November. Oops, there goes your violation. Check your facts before you post why don't cha? Num-Nuts.
 

So Rod is the devil. But Franciso is promising things he can't possible deliver. Even if his intent is good, how can he promise things that have no chance of being put into play? Substations that can't be funded? An Undersheriff's position that can't be funded unless there's a cut in the patrol force? WTF? He might be a good guy (remains to be seen), but why make political promises that can't be fulfilled? Just to get elected? Where's the alternative? Where is the hope for the common man or woman? I'm not happy with the whole situation. I want change, but is this it? Promises that can't happen?
 

Hey red cell some more patrol deputies would be great so why do they have to be black or some other color how about just qualified ? why does everything have to come down to race? screw that just qualified will do
 

Hey RedC. This blog was not meant for the likes of you. You're just a shit disturber, and this blog was created to get rid of the corruption in Lake County, and the removal of Mitchell. I really think Lovelace should just clean up all of the extraneous crap, and stay concentrated on the gob's and the corruption. I don't think this was intended to be an open forum. It was to inform the public of the blog's goal, and invite people to contribute, or just learn what is going on by reading the blog. I think it has gone astray, letting the corruption supporters come on and lie through there teeth, just to upset the blog's intention to inform the public of the truth in this county. Throw there asses out. We don't need to waste time reading their crap. This is the people's blog to clean up the corruption. They can start their own blogs, and let the gob's rant all they want. How about it?
 

5:47 Are you suggesting that if a person does not support Rivero they are automatically a gob? I've seen plenty written here from Rivero supporters that is far from the truth. If this is your primary source of information you most likely don't care about the truth.
 

5:45 Why do you assume that in order to fund the Under Sherrif position they will have to cut the patrol force? WTF back at cha. There is plenty of fat jobs at the top that are open that no one seems to want (well ok, McMahon might but he doesn't count). The department seems to be running as usual without the bodies in the spot, so delete the Lt. and open Captain's positions (notice no patrol officer cut) and fund it that way. As for the substations, why don't you ask Rivero how he plans on funding them? Have you tried that? Or is it easier to feel like all is lost because Mitchell and the Clan look to be on the way out. There is plenty of hope for the common man and woman. Change won't be easy (I suspect more for some than others) but it is coming. I for one look forward to it.
 

With a table of organization, a second in command is crucial for good control. good leaders have those that will tell him the truth not just to kiss his gluteus maximus
 

This is the Lovelace group, this has been a busy day of gathering a bit of information and we are going to put it out there now. This is very important and we invite your comments and input on this information.

We had an individual stop a couple members of the Lovelace group yesterday at the Rodeo and parade. They said they had heard about the banter of Hopkins trying to keep employment here in the county in some way, either through the PD's etc. It doesn't appear to be the case, the news if we don stop it could actually be worse. Hopkins is indicating that he is thinking of approaching the Attorney General's office to appoint him as a "special prosecutor" to handle all of the cases that Anderson/Rhoades will have to recuse themselves and the DA's office from (prior clients of Anderson/Rhoades). He figures after Rhoades practicing for 20 years, and Anderson roughly the same, there will be quite a few.!!!!!!

We don't think the public who has worked so hard to get him out would take kindly to this idea, and it seems Hoppy is trying to find anyway he can to stay in this county. If more information confirms he is actually going to make this request It might not be a bad idea to contact the AG's office and let them know we don't want him as a special anything!!!! Period, no question asked no way. We are going to track this very carefully, and we believe the citizens should start sending off e-mails to the AG's office and let them know we will not stand for any move of this nature.

Alright folks there you have it. Let's keep a close eye on this and make sure we shut any and every door Hoppy might try to squeeze into.
 

Well 626. I am saying that this blog was created to end corruption in Lake County, and kick Mitchell out. And, no, you have a right to support anyone you like, but if you don't support Rivero, then you obviously support Mitchell, which = gob corruption. that to me is as real as being a gob. Rivero may not be god's gift to Lake County, but he is the only one that stepped to the plate, and decided to try his best to help clean up Lake County. He will be a start, and as others see that there is hope, they will join to make Lake County the desirable place it once was. by the way, this is not my primary source of information, and I'm sure many others who read this blog are intelligent enough to understand that they are reading it to get some insight as to what is going on in Lake County. before this was started, we had very little information from the media. Local papers and commercial radio put out fluff, with very little substance. Sure, everything written has to be weighed, and digested by the reader, who, I think, will, in his or her own way, sift through any meaningless posts.
 

Clark Kent you are good and have been putting the word down. Keep it up and great job, it is sometimes frustrating trying to get the representatives supporting Mitchell to speak and understand on the same level as we do. It is not intellectual it is proper reasoning that is difficult to get across. Keep it up.
 

yikes.

"special prosecutor" is a unique title under the department of justice. Previous special prosecutors are known for "prosecuting" historical suspects such as martin luther king, jr. and huey p. newton to death. i wonder what Hoppy's justification is... why exactly does Lake County need a special prosecutor? to fight those shadowy blogs, maybe?
 

Ooh hoppy is special . It very rare to get so much arrogance and ignorance in one person .
 

love lace, do i post on this blog what is true and verifiable about rivero and baxter, things that will lower them to mitchell's level, or do we just let things go as they are so that we get rid of mitchell? i have not heard from you? let me know, do you want the information or do you just want to vote for rivero to get rid of the trash that currently exists and replace it with a new trash receptacle?
 

10:06 Not so rare we have two of them in this little county Hopkins and Mitchell
 

10:40 Certainly you should post the facts, voters deserve to be informed.
 

Facts have away sometimes not being the truth but the truth would be refreshing so let it gush forth. We that are for officer Rivero know what Mitchell is, we have had him for 16 years and a jury with the Dinius case confirmed to us we were right.He would hang another for one of his own. Now Show us that officer Rivero comes up to is standard. we really don't need another Mitchell.
 

Yes 10:40: If you have the goods let's hear it.
 

10:40 If you have the goods let's hear it.
 

1040 It is no secret that we support change and change is Rivero. If Rivero and Baxter decide to work together so what. Your worried and rightly so, you need to save your money because November isn't to far away and mitchell is a gonner just like hopkins.
We expect honesty, from LE so when a SO covers for another at the expense of an innocent person I really get p. And when I listened to the testimony in the Dinius Case knowing it's BS and mitchell continued in his gig that's when people decided to get involve just like I did. People have a choice to allow this crap to continue or put a stop to it and you have not seen anything yet.
 

Search and Rescue Fundraiser? Hey....anyone know about the money that was left for search and rescue by a private party's Will?. People said mitchell held on to the bank book and it was to give search and rescue some extra's not covered in Mitchell's budget. He purchased a new vehicle with it, had Search and Rescue painted on it but refused to allow search and rescue to use it. Remember this? As I remember it was quite a bit of money,much more than the vehicle cost. So anyone know what happened to all of it? Just Curious.

losers
 

You must be kidding me, I am sending an e-mail to the AG right now. Hoppy is going to have to pick grapes to stay viable in this county after January, which is when the actual shift of power happens. No fricken way, Hoppy is gone, and I hope Mitchell is leaving as well. Even if Mitchell retires I would love to see him high-tail it out of this county. I can't wait for the change!!!
 

Don't ya love the great effort these Mitchell supporters are putting out right now. Duh, I think I will type loser on the Blog page. Man that is strong statement for your boy, that should get him elected!!! hahahha
 

Man! von morshed sure has a lot of time on her hands these days....boy she's writing up a storm on that stupid "dirty rivero" site. She might as well sign her name,that girl is a give away with the way she writes. Check it out,she is just unbelievable!! God I hope she's next to go.I cant stand that woman!
 

This is a message we received from a concerned citizen who used to work for in our sheriffs department, this is a quick but enlightening story take a read of it.


I know longer work for the county but want to give you and your people an idea of what I went through when I first arrived in Lake County.
I had worked in a couple of different LE organizations in much larger cities so having done that for several years it told when I first arrived in lake county almost 10 years ago that there is something not right about the way things are done in Lake County, and in the sheriffs office. When I first came here and started working for Mitchell they told me if you have any ideas from the last police department you worked at let us know. Well, when I gave them my input, they got all huffy and said well we can't try new things because that's the way it has always been done here. After that I was the "enemy" because they have the "us or them" mentality. Butt-holes apparently never heard of Teamwork. They didn't like having an old veteran of LE background who is more hard ass constantly asking why some people in the department are protected and others are thrown to the side, why do they ask for input to improve then get so pissy cause you don't think their way is the best, There is so much I could go on about but will give you that later and it just gets me fricking mad!!!!! Anyway to close, as I said before, I believe Mitchell hates me about as much anyone who stepped up and asked questions. One more thing I believe the fight is going to be tough with the BOS as long as Brown is seated. He really needs to go too. Keep up the good work and don't let up. You guys have, for the first time, these lowlifes on the run, I have never seen it happen before and thanks!!! I'll send more stories in a few days.

There you have it another testimonial to the lack of professionalism, the collusion and terrible manner in which Mitchell has run the sheriff department. We like how this person talks, will post more as we get it.
 

Hey post 356 at this point I don't even go to that site, just a waste of time with one or two people blasting up all kinds of crap, it is just the rats starting to run, and wecan't take the time. They know it is late in the game and the party is over, they will try to scramble but it won't help. Their site is essentially dead in the water, I bet it will be toast before the November elections. Part of that will be I hope because most of them will have realised the end is near and left the county!!!!!
 

any info on the mitchell event that was at rb's house last nite?
 

well, since love lace is not responding back, i will just put one thing forward for the time being. why don't you ask mitchell, rivero and baxter to show their health records. i am sure that the couple of operations and hospital stays that rivero has had during the past two years is no big deal. but maybe it is a sign of problems with his circulatory and respiratory system. what about mitchell? what about baxter? i am sure everyone wants transparency, right? don't want the county to pick up another person with health problems that we, the taxpayers would have to eventually pay for.
 

Ya the info on the Mitchell event at Rob Brown's house is quite interesting. It appears that Mitchell is trying to move Rob out of the picture. Brown has really hurt Mitchell in his support, but they are having a hard time figuring that out. Brown is such an ass to the public, and is so disliked that it was a big mistake for Mitchell in allowing Brown to be so visible. The meeting talked about what in the hell they are going to do now. There are not many options, and it is going to be hard to move Brown out of the way without it seeming like there is dissent in the ranks. The other side of the coin is that the Mitchell campaign is in big trouble, now the corrupt SO's that were supporting him are starting to back away from Mitchell. Mitchell is starting to see that his supporters are getting less and less, and putting out less and less effort. Of course you know why, because they are now thinking about saving their own ass. That was a big mistake having Brown be so visible as he cost Mitchell a lot of votes. Bad campaign move by Mitchell. You see Mitchell has never had to play the real game of campaigning, now when he and his boys go against the citizens and a great campaign being run by Rivero they are getting their butts kicked big time!!!
 

Ya post 443 we will go ahead and concentrate on the circulatory and respiratory conditions of the candidates. Ya we will get right on that one!!! Oh the Mitchell supporters are really reaching now. LOL
 

hA HA HA HA.........Is that all you got Mitchell boys, check their circulatory systems!!! That is to funny...Lovelace you are right they have got a strong campaign going on, wonder if they dreamed that up and Rob Brown's last night.
 

well oliver, you are probably right. two operations in less than 18 months is nothing that you should be worried about. that is only the tip of the iceberg concerning his health. but, don't you think all three of them should come forward concerning their health? don't go to your liberal "mitchell supporter" comment corner. i agree mitchell has to go. i am just saying that we need to see what we are really getting. and there are other items that i will bring forward later that concerns rivero and baxter, as well as mitchell. take your blinders off and start looking at the total picture.
 

Martin wannabe gob ,I see they love your sorry ass over at the anti Rivero blog why not stay over there .
 

I don't know what the big deal is, so here is the facts.

The CHP, LCSO, Lakeport and Clearlake Police all share the same arrest authority to arrest a person anywhere in California.

In an unincorporated area (area's other than a city), the CHP's primary job is traffic enforcement and accident investigations. When requested, the can also investigate other crimes.

LCSO is responsible for controlling the jail, providing security for the courts and serving civil process anywhere in the county (even the city). An additional job is investigating coroner cases. LCSO's secondary job is investigating crimes in the unincorperated area's except traffic accidents. LCSO does enforce traffic laws just like CHP, but not traffic investigations. Deputies do respond to accidents to assist CHP or investigate a death if the accident is a fatality.

When a city is incorporated, it assumes all law enforcement needs and traffic investigations. The CHP and LCSO can enforce any law within the city but it is not their primary duty.

CHP has been called upon in the past to investigate crimes in the cities and county due to the police and LCSO not being able to respond. LCSO has handed crimes in both cities when asked and the city police officer's have handled crimes outside of the cities when LCSO requires assistance.

In a nutshell, if they are a peace officer, they can arrest anyone, anywhere and at any time.
 

We took down a couple of Redcell posts, essentially folks the conclusion has been come to that Redcell will never change. He will follow Mitchell down the garden path despite the weeds and no one will be able to change him. His diatribes are always the same, and frankly a giant waste of time. He posts non-stop, and then repeats his posts we remove on the copy cat blog. No one appears to respond to him over there but they leave his garbage up so that should make him happy. Redcell, we have moved past where you are, the planning now is for the future. This is no longer about being concerned about who is going to be sheriff, this is planning for the change. Your holding on to a lost cause and we frankly don't have time to banter with you on your now dead issues. You keep touting Mitchell till he has to pack his bags and you can follow him down the street into the sunset. The world has passed you by Sta Marine, and so have we and the change is coming, time to evolve or die Sta, the choice is yours.
 

If Martin is such a great GOB, why did Rusty Wright not get charged with any crime related to LCSO? If Martin is so good, why was Morshed not arrested by now. That is because Wright and Morshed did NOTHING!!!
 

728 you are correct. and post 549, you know you still are not to convincing, Rivero is in fine shape, walks miles in any given day, is very active, from building to being out with his kids. You are simply barking up the wrong tree. Mitchell's health does not matter he is a done deal anyway. He just has to make it till January. The role Baxter will play as under sheriff has zero connectivity to his health or age. He seems in fine health to us, and we really think you might want to try a different angle, there is really no point to what you are saying
 

Redcell, face it, the people already spoke in the primary and Mitchell lost. Mitchell could not control his management that lead to Perdock, Garzoli and the Dinius case. Mitchell can't even keep his house in order and has been accused of cheating on his wheelchair bound wife.

Mitchell didn't make RIMS, the LCSO website or even the new on line report system. Deputies came up with the idea, put it together and Mitchell only signed off on it. But Mitchell never even reads what he signs (remember the DEA grant)?

So what's the big thing about what Rivero drives? Let me inform the people here of what Rivero did. When Rivero first started he needed a new car. On EBay, he found a Ford Crown Victoria with only 16k miles. He purchased it for only $8000.00 and I think that's a steal. The car is in fantastic shape, great paint, never had decals on it or any emergency lights. So what did he get? A 24k car for only $8000.00, an almost new sedan with heavy duty suspension, radiator and other goodies. Hell when I saw it the tires still had the little rubber nipples still on it!
 

715 Redcell posts over here because no one supports him on the other site. The sad part is that he is so ignorant he thinks he can turn a Rivero supporter after all Mitchell has done. Redcell is the best example of a Mitchell supporter being so confused he can't figure out which site to post on. With his support Mitchell will lose, Guaranteed.
 

Wow, Redcell is getting it handed to him this evening. Lovelace will stand on the sidelines on this one, the citizens are doing a fine job putting down the facts!
 

Who cares what River drives??

So what..

If he drops in a modified engine he has my vote. Yank all the smog equipment out. Yea!!!

Heads up, we have some new articles coming out in the Manifest one is an interview with Frank Rivero on the undersheriff position and on the concept of substations. You will find it quite interesting to say the least, we will post when that interview and the other article go up.
 

I find you quite uninteresting to say the least..so much smack to talk so little time...LTGOB
 

Here is what Hoppy is up to, FYI. He is using the press, the way he always does to try and accomplish a goal. He is using the Record Bee today to try and do it. He wants to become judge and he is slowly trying to discredit and churn false information on the people who he thinks might run against him. It is not to hard to guess who these people are. Doug Rhoades, for instance. If he loses the DA race, he will run for judge. All seats for judge are up for election in 2012. That means the campaigning starts real soon. Look at the article in the Record Bee trying to discredit Rhoades as an attorney. In reality, criminal defendants do request new attorneys because they know it will delay their case and they are not ready to go off to prison yet or for other reasons related to staying local instead of going to prison. These requests are almost never granted, but this particular request is front page Record Bee news because Hoppy press released it. Watch out Hoppy does not use this site or the Manifest to do it. Make a short list of who will run for judge, it's easy to do, and be aware of Hoppy supporters (the other DA's) and mostly Hoppy himself manipulating the media to make little things seem like a great big deal. We are all on notice of what Hoppy is trying to do. He is trying to stay relevant and he will try for judge. AG position or not, judge is the main goal. He has been shooting off his mouth within earshot of others.
 

Nice post 7:47, we know Hoppy does not want to leave the county, but the citizens have to make sure he does not get a position of any kind in this county...Period, you can't burn the bridges of a small community and still want to travel in that community. It will be time for Hoppy to leave the county, and Mitchell should be right with him. They have done far to much damage to the citizens the coffers and the image of Lake county to be able to stay here and use our tax dollars to get paid....
 

I would remind you It was Mitchell and Hopkins with a few of other bureaucrats in this local government that started all this mess. This system has lied and covered up for each other for so long with its a"personnel matter" that to lie became ingrained, with no thought to the wrong in it all. Their is not one bureaucrat if asked, that would tell you that bureaucrats should be allowed to lie and cover up their misdeeds but the same bureaucrats will do it anyway. I'm the one with the problem because I can't wrap my gray matter around all that bull or the status quo that would leave it the way it is.For me to vote for Mitchell insanity would have to over come me.
 

Unreal Melissa Bentley posting her support of Mitchell in the opinion section of the Bee...Again, this is a women who would support Mitchell after all he has done to abuse women? Why does this idiot think anyone cares about her opinion. Would some of you go over to the Bee and beat her up for a while. That women is dumber then a lightbulb. No one cares what she has to say, and why would she think we would.
 

Well knowing Mitchell is this a sign that something else is going on between Mitchell and Bentley? Wouldn't be surprising would it. You couldn't put it past Mitchell that is for sure. Mellisa what's up with you and Mitchell?
 

Bentey is an idiot, she has been pounding the pavement for Mitchell since day one, has always been a Mitchell clone, sure would be nice to know what her connection is to Mitchell. What ever it is it can't be good.
 

We want to welcome the newest member to the Manifest team, it is bytesilias!! Thanks for signing up as a new member to the paper. Your support is greatly appreciated. We urge everyone to sign up on the Manifest and join the community in change. We have a lot of work to be done, and there is a lot on the table to do over the next few months. It is quick and easy to sign up and become a member. Please do so, and help the citizens in the cause for change!!
 

You say that the citizens were "handing it" to Redcell. I disagree. All I read was that people don't like his opinion. Redcell at least has the guts to state a different point of view and make you think. There is no harm in that. Unless all of us are to walk in lock step with each other.

Also, I don't believe this is as much of a "done deal" as you continue to state. I for one voted for Rivero in the primary. I also know many others that voted for him in the primary. They are now stating that they may vote for his opponent or not vote at all.
 

1059 now Redcell just post under your own name and stop the attempt to spin. Come on get a grip man. We know when it is you posting, your in dreamland, now you have to post fake comments complimenting yourself to try and stay viable. Your done man go away, its over for you. Go post on the copy cat sight and languish in obscurity over there!! LOL
 

1125 Well said! I too have noticed that deadcell will post under his name, and then come back anonymously and compliment his own post. This guy is so stuck in his own ideology that he refusees to look beyond the whole left wing right wing paradigm. Deadcell and his ilk will have a hard time accepting the change thats coming but hey thats their problem. I myself welcome change and can look beyond the right left bull$hit.
 

201 Deadcell, as usual you have it backassward. Bright as a light bulb is a good thing. "u r as smart as a light bulb." Is YOU! LOL

Well 2:01. I really don't think this blog was originated for a different point of view. It was started, as I have mentioned before, to clean up Lake County government, and especially get rid of Mitchell, and secondly, Brown.
And as for "this great country", how about the forming fathers, all white, decimate the original Americans (natives), enslave the black people, disregard rights for women, etc. Yes, a great country was built, regardless of these failings, but how about the wars we started, none of which actually protected our country (except WWII), but entrenched us in countries all over the world, where we still have thousands and thousands of our military in countries that we have no reason to be....except to form controlling power around the world. We, along with England and France have infiltrated, and tried to control countries that have resources that we all want. There are many countries that are internally having dire problems that we are not really paying attention to, such as Africa. Yet, take South America. It is a neighbor that we decided to go in and try to change governments. Not for democracy, but just to be on our side, regardless of what kind of government. Now, it's a different story in the Middle East. There is oil. We stuck our nose in there many years ago. take when Iran wanted to take back control of its oil from the British. Well, the Brits asked us to intervene...so, we did. We caused the downfall of a fairly democratic government, and opened the door for the Shah to take over, and take back the government from the people. Iran has eventually become our enemy. I wonder why? What if some great power did that to us? I think we would be a pretty pissed-off people. We have stuck our nose and power where they shouldn't have been...in Viet Nam, and Korea. Viet Nam was getting rid of the conquering French, so the French asks us to jump in the fray. The phoney call to us was that we were fighting Communists. No, we were jumping into a civil war. Their civil war...not ours. The same in Korea. We were not threatened, yet we lost thousands of our young people in a fight we again couldn't win, because it was an internal war, THEIR war, not ours. You see, Communism around the world eventually defeats itself. It can't sustain itself. Look at China. Little be little it is changing, and becoming a formidable financial power. People are actually striking for higher wages there. Years ago, this would have been unheard of. Let's face it. Money controls everything, even governments. the World Bank is one entity to reckon with.
Sorry Lovelace. Just got carried away. You can take this out, if you want.

The fact that your post remains is clear sign this blog is up for more then just some shady election campaign. You are hypocrites! You deleted all my posts again. I really don't care about Rivero at this point. you idiots are the problem. you play on the misinformed and spread rumor, hearsay and innuendo.

Not sure what you guys mean.

I save all my stuff in Notepad and just ctrl. C and ctrl. V (Copy and paste) the whole thing in when I am feeling bored, after I see you have deleted it.

That 10:59 post was not me.

Hmmm.....

Oliver, Oliver...You deleted my posts again. I really need to get a USB thumdrive so when I'm at the coffee house I can copy and paste my stuff back up over and over again. Now I need to wait till I get home.

If you guys have a linux command line xterm shell window, just "grep /var/log/wtmp | more date, time stamp" (or it might be in
/var/log/lastlogin) of your little google blog account. If you don't have an exterm window just email the sysadmin for google. Copy and paste this email to them if you need to. They will know what I'm talking about.

Get the IP from the 10:59 post. Compare it to my other posts. It's called critical thinking and problem solving analysis to pattern recognition.

Jheeez!

you, love lace, and many of your followers think you are so smart. i will use a phrase one of your "brilliant" ones used, "u r as smart as a light bulb." it should have been bright as a light bulb, but that is ok. no, it was not redcell making those comments, it was me. and since you guys have all the answers, who am i? i was just stating that redcell just states his opinion and lets people look at a different point of view. but, since most everyone on this site apparently just wants to walk in lock step and think the same, redcell should not give a different point of view. you forget, that is what has made this country great, different points of view. # posted by Anonymous Anonymous : July 13, 2010 2:01 PM

201 Deadcell, as usual you have it backassward. Bright as a light bulb is a good thing. "u r as smart as a light bulb." Is YOU! LOL

Oh! wait!!

wtmp and lastlogin are binary log files. I prefer vi editor, but it won't convert binary. Try this:

xxd oldfile tempfile
vi tempfile
xxd -r tempfile oldfile

Don't use "touch" or "cat". Just pipe it into "more" or "less" commands otherwize it will spew.

Hope this helps.

Gee RedCell. Maybe you will go away, and this blog can go on with its intent to get rid of the gob's, and all the corrupt in local government that have left a stain that will probably take a long time to erase. I think you just like to hear yourself talk (write). Ego will get you nowhere. Why don't you sit down and start your own blog, and then all the other idiots will join you, and leave this one alone. Oh yes..and 'Rivero for Sheriff'.
 

I think it's funny that deadcell spams this forum with his copy and pasted diatribes, yet he claims Clark Kent is an idiot. I often wonder why he even bothers coming here anymore. I suspect he is either mentally ill or just a lonely conservative with a whole lot of time on his hands. In any case I plan to completely ignore his posts from now on and hope he gets bored and goes away.
 

Redcell can see the writing on the wall and it's killing him. The tone of his posts have gotten more aggressive because deep down he knows mitchell is toast come November.
 

I see spam marine is back to his old tricks. Hopefully Lovelace will come and clean up the mess he's left behind. It's the same crap over and over with this guy, and frankly I've tired of his games.
 

Hey everyone, just a heads up there is new articles going up on the Manifest, a good one just posted of an interview with Frank Rivero, concerning the undersheriff position and substations and Rivero's plans for January when he takes over the postiion. Good stuff, we will have more article going up as well. Take a read and while your there give a comment and sign up as a member, and join the cause of change in our county. Great interview with Rivero man he is on it. And very sharp!! I think I know what he does not want to debate Rivero anymore.
 

News FLash; Judge Hedstrom issues warrant on a under the influence charge. The person he issued a warrant for is already in Cal. Rehab.Center, because of a relapse that happened in the same week. Since this person is an out patient of CRC [parole] and has another charge for being under the influence had to return for treatment. Judge Hedstrom receives a letter from this person, who advised him that he is back at CRC and cannot make an appearrance in his court; but Judge Hedstrom issues a warrant anyway? Which means Judge Hedstrom wants CRC to return him to Lake Co. for a hearing? For what? So he can be sent back to CRC for treatment, where he is already. The Judicial system should try harder to coordinate it's efforts a little more, save us taxpayers but mainly concern itself with getting the proper help for the person involved....since this IS the LAW...

Ok So 5:20 asked me to update this incident; Why would the Judge put a hold on this person who is at CRC? for an under the influence charge? a misdemner; and this deputy Smith hasn't got anything and he wreaked two cars? Yeah, my friend
has been released from CRC (paperwork for release) but Lake County has a hold on him for the under the influence. Which means Lake has to pay for his air fare back to Lake County to go to court. Unbelievable; does Lake County have that kind of money, but for what purpose. Please give us your ideas on this.
 

July 13, 2010 4:16 PM

I'm getting aggressive?

I'm just trying to show you guys how to check your /var/log/wtmp file on your google blog account so you can see I'm not responding to my own posts.

Red cell we do not care . please go and get help
 

Redcell stop beating a dead horse and just go away.
 

You know redcell you use to be tolerable, but these days your rants are repetitious and downright rude. Calling people idiots is not gonna help you get your point across. It's obvious you don't care for the Lovelace group, so I gotta ask why do you still come to this blog?

You claim this board preys on uninformed citizens, well I guess I give the citizens of lake county more credit than you do. The citizens see what has been going on and in November they will show the GOB's just how informed they are.
 

Hey Clark Kent, from what you have written it appears that you are not very happy with this country or its government. By the tone of you post, I am sure you did not serve in the military. And we did not start the Korean war, or WWI. Viet Nam was already at war with France, we did not start it. That being said I will move on. I am not very happy with this government either. That jackass of a president that you and your socialist friends voted in is trying turn this country into a european look alike. Capitalism has worked very well for all of us. This country has made some mistakes over the years, but it is still the greatest country in the world. And as has been said before, if you don't like it, pack your lazy socialist ass up and leave.
So, Clark Kent or Oliver Wendall Douglas or Bruce or whatever you are going to call yourself next, when you need help when the shit hits the fan, call one of your bleeding heart socialist buddies. Don't call one us conservative bastards that have continued to protect your cowardist, socialist ass. And you dumb ass, this is not Red cell. You guys think you are so smart. It is frightening to think some of you morons may have some kind of say in the Rivero administration. God help us. I know, you don't believe in God.
 

My name is Jim Beland. I want to thank the people and deputies who testified in my behalf and supported me. Going through this process is something I do not wish on even my worst enemy. I wanted to publicily thank Rivero, Morshed, Samples, Ski and Thomas for their testimony during my hearing. Although some of those deputies did not like the other, they all testified truthfully.

To Ward, I am sorry I patted you on the head. McMahon and Brown gave me a strict order not to talk to you about that even when I wanted to apologize.

To Ski, I have never worked with a more dedicated cop than you. I enjoyed every minute of it. Sorry to have put you through this process.

To Kip, thanks for being there. I know we were never good friends at work, but I guess our personalities are just different (on the job). I always tried to respect you and enjoyed out motorcyle rides. Your dedication to the DSA, PORAC and even the Lake County POA was nothing less than honorable. No other member has done more than you.

I support Frank Rivero for Sheriff and that is most obvious since I even road on his float in two parades. I believe I am still in RIMS and have not changed my number. Any deputy may call me if they have any question.

Thank you,
 

7:03 Who is this asshole? He doesn't deserve an answer.
 

Oh I almost forgot, Thanks to Rob Zehrung. A great friend, a good cop and a fantastic Private Investigator. If anyone needs a PI, call Rob at Mainstream Investigations in Santa Rosa. You can't get a better PI than Rob.

Jim Beland
 

703 This is'nt the Glenn Beck show message board. Go peddle your teabaggin garbage somewhere else cause nobody here is buying it (except redcell). I bet the other blog would would welcome your right wing rant.
 

To Jim Beland, we want to thank you for standing tall, many may not know this but many do know you have gone through some very difficult times and we know it has not been easy. You are a good man Jim, and you have stood tall in the saddle during a very difficult time. You are and have gone up against Mitchell and his methods and unfair discipline, and we want to extend our heartfelt thanks for all your efforts. You could have quite easily given up. But you have seen it though and we are proud of you for your efforts. Please keep us updated as to the progress and the end results when you can. Thanks Jim, and thanks for your support of Rivero.
 

716....LOL best laugh of the day, way to put it down.
 

703, go peddle your wares on another venue, your ignorant, and you are clueless. You are the image of what the right wing agenda has created in you. It is sad to say the least that you have allowed yourself to be brainwashed in such a fashion. Think for yourself, be a man not a puppet of some contrived system, that has no concern for the citizens and the freedoms that we are losing right and left. We do not need your diatribes on a progressive and forward thinking agenda such as ours.
 

703 The right wing vs left wing paradigm serves no purpose and only succeeds in dividing the citizens of this country. The truth is that our government on both the left and right have been bought and payed for by Corporations. If you look at the state of our country objectively you will see that we are getting screwed from both sides. But seeing as you parrot things you have heard on Fox news I doubt there is much hope for you and your kind. In any case you are barking up the wrong tree posting that garbage here.
 

842 Seriously is that the best you've got?
 

Clean up on aisle 1
 

I sit and watch, and listen or read what some people think on a daily basis. They live smugly with this ridiculous belief that “it will never happen to them.” Me… I live in the world of reality knowing that “it” will happen. The question that can never be answered exactly is … what “it” will be. It happened to Beland and others within the Sheriff's Department and it will continue to happen. Unfortunately I don’t think it will matter who is at the helm. I think it took me having to leave the Sheriff’s Department to realize the old adage, “Power corrupts, and Absolute Power corrupts absolutely.” What members of the Sheriff’s Department need to ask themselves is… is that a light at the end of the tunnel or the train coming down the tracks? I know that is exactly what the members of the District Attorney’s Office are asking themselves.

Thank you for your kind words Jim… keep your chin up.

Robert Zehrung
 

Your incessant spamming won't stop us from doing what we have to do. While you mindlessly spam this board we are busy putting our ducks in a row. So by all means carry on.
 

834 You are right on the mark, right wing left wing all the same birds. We are seeing capitalism in the final days.

Robert Zehrung is a good man, A history in Lake County and is honest and good.
 

“Power corrupts, and Absolute Power corrupts absolutely.”

Truer words were never spoken.

To Jim Beland and Robert Zerung thank you for your posts and courage.
 

Thank you Jim, and we can't wait to see the details and the outcome.
 

Jim and Robert:

I wish you both the Best and Thank You for your honest integrity.
It's shameful that you have to go through all of this and someday you will be the model for others within the department. Your courage is commended! Thanks for your support as well.

The only difference is the pablum feed its members, between the two major party's.Lincoln said It will be by are hand our demise. We are a house divided.what it really is, Is power and greed. I have said it before and I say it again There is nothing that last, that is based on dishonesty. That is why all this is going on now. Not only this County but the State and the Country. The local bureaucrats ethics is "its a personnel matter and we can't talk about it." Thus allowing themselves with little responsibility for their actions so they can lie and cover the lies up. I see no hope I think history tells how it will play out.Be ready
 

Thank you Jim Beland, you respected the Oath you took to Protect and Serve the people of Lake County and we stand behind you.
Repeat 2x and Anom
Only 4 more months and Rod Mitchell will be terminated by the voters. We need to stay focus on the November election not the 2012. (60% of the people fired Hopkins, he doesn't have a chance for a judgeship)
 

Thank Jim Beland!!
 

Bias in the media: To the citizens of Lake county. An individual sent in a short opinion piece LCN concerning sheriff Mitchell and based on freedom of speech and the basic rules of journalism asked that they post it in their opinion section. Noting scathing, no profanity according to this individual, and far less divisive then many of the opinion pieces they have allowed in the past, including their own opinion piece which still funny enough resides on the copy cat blog of the corruption supporters which Jensen set up for them.

LCN's response to this individual was a flat out NO!!! We will not print your opinion/comment in our paper. It is a sad day when a paper exhibits this level of bias to the public, and does not bode well for the future of any publication showing this level of contrived journalism.
 

OWD It does'nt surprise me that LCN would do this. It's become very clear that they are biased and not a news source that the people of this county can depend on. I use to go there to get get news on the Dinius case and thought they did a good job but I hardly go there anymore. Their coverage of the election has been lacking to say the least. And what's up with them reporting every marijuana related bust from here to the Oregon boarder. I go to local news websites to get local news not to hear about out of county arrests for marijuana cultivation. Hey LCN get a clue!
 

1011 you are exactly right. There is a bizarre paranoia that has developed at LCN and a strange and confused need to post anything negative concerning Cannabis that they can find. We have noticed the same types of constant articles from up and down the state, it seems if they can find something anything about a pot bust no matter where it is or how small they will post it in their paper. There really was no election coverage except to post the vote numbers. Now to turn down a basic and well written piece concerning a citizens opinion of Mitchell is weak at best. Go figure!
 

9:43 AM If there was any truth to your claim you would have posted the letter from that person, preceeded by FLASH FLASH FLASH.
 

1033 Good Morning JJ.
 

John, you don't want to go down the road of proving that one now do you? Each time you do that you get stomped. I echo post 1041 good morning JJ, now go out and find a pot story to post in your paper. Maybe there was a 3 plant bust in southern Cal. you can write about.
 

Hey hey hey now Johnny boy we love the FLASH and since your paper never posts anything as a breaking story you don't get to utilise that option. Come on John boy if you get your self together and pick up a little more journalism skills the Manifest may hire you to be a beat reporter!! ;-0
 

Heads up everyone, there are some great new articles up on the Manifest, including an excellent article on the Rand corporation and a model they developed concerning the price of Cannabis if it were to get legalized, quite a good job of research and writing by Brian Rushing.

Also we want to see more poetry submissions to the paper, we know there are a lot of good writers out there and we want to show the creative side of our citizens, send those creations in to the paper and we will get them up for you!!

We want to also urge you to sign on as a member, as you can see we are going to be a wide ranging investigative paper and we need all the support and members we can get, this is your paper. Submit your letters to the editor and opinions and articles. It is quick and easy to sign on just go to the right hand side of the paper front page and you will see where to join.
 

uhhhh post 1112....Not!!
 

OWD, I am signing up today, keep up the good work!!
 

what is the url for the corruption web page I want to go see how many have posted or copy pasted
 

What's this buzz about Jessica Henson? Did she do it? What / How much was embezzled? The Record-Bee article is very, very slight.
 

Very well said. Clark, you know even though it is a different point of view than yours, he is right to have his own opinion and political view. Just because we conservatives have a different view of things than you does not mean we are wrong. It just means we see things differently.

Kip Ringen
 

Great letter to the editor has just been posted on the Manifest. It is from Conrad whom we had another article on the paper earlier in the week. This letter is an excellent letter and we want everyones input on what Conrad is saying is happening to our local community radio station. Take a read of it, as it brings up some very interesting issues and ideas. We want to thank Conrad for his efforts and dedication to having a solid and fair local radio station.
 

Kip... as you know politics makes strange bed fellows..;-)
 

Kip your not a conservative you are a "Hawkish Democrat" you have a greater field of vision then your standard died in the wool right winger, you have greater compassion and are not one to simply follow the Palin party line.
 

Lets face the facts..the Rivero bunch is the druggies, felons, Berkley cop
killer supporters, permanent malcontents, permanent gubment check recipients,
and a host of other similar screw ups.

I don't know about you guys, but threatening MY pro Mitchell friends and
neighbors could have DIRE consequences, remember ITS THE liberals who are too
chicken **it to defend themselves..
July 13, 2010 9:24 PM Is that you Redcell? What are the "DIRE consequences"
that you speak of? Are you threatening Baxter supporters also? Evidenced by the
vote the Baxter supporters agreed that Mitchell should be replaced. To assume
that any and everyone that voted against Mitchell are druggies, felons, Berkley
cop killer supporters, permanent malcontents, permanent gubment check
recipients, and a host of other similar screw ups is going to come back and bite
you on the you know what.
 

Bet you never been called a democrat before eh Kip, welcome to the fold! ;-)
 

So we have three new articles up on the newspaper. The Rand corporation article, the Rivero interview on substations and the under sheriff, and Conrads letter to the editor on the radio station. Good stuff take a read, and contribute your comments. While your there sign up to be a member of the community newspaper, we can show KPFZ how to do it. Hey may be that's the next step for the Lovelace group, a local radio station, sounds interesting, don't put it past us!!!;-0
 

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaa pirate!!!!
