This is the Lovelace Group of Lake County and this is our Blog page. This Blog is dedicated to the good citizens of our county and with their help and dedication to change and transparency. This site now has 6 years of existence. It started several years ago dedicated to the removal of two public officials holding office in our county. Sheriff Rodney K. Mitchell and District Attorney John Hopkins. As our group began to look at the actions and incidents of corruption, elitism, and crony-ism that was entrenched in our local governmental system it became clear that something must be done to change the course of the past 15 years. Lake County is one of the lowest rated counties in the state from health criteria to water quality. Meth is still a severe issue, tourism is dying, and housing value is stagnant. Our lake is dying due to total government mismanagement. Change is needed. A model was created, this model was based upon the use and concept of social communications and Internet dialog to promote public awareness and further the cause of radical change in our community. By various means we brought our site to the attention of the citizens and public officials in our county. Now approaching one million comments, several elections, and an amazing county, state and country wide audience we are pressing forward for even greater social change and policy restructuring within our county. Environmentally and from a governmental failure, our county is dying.
What has been accomplished thus far would have been hard to imagine 48 months ago. Sheriff Rodney K. Mitchell has been removed from power, District Attorney Jon Hopkins has been removed from power. One of the driving forces for the exposure and removal of these two corrupt individuals is a terrible incident involving a boating accident on our local lake when a sheriff's deputy named Russell Perdock drove his speed boat at high speed in the middle of the night over the top of a sail boat just leaving the docks with running lights on killing at a far to early age a beautiful women name Lynn Thorton, at the helm of the sailboat was Bismarck Dinius. What followed is hard to imagine. Then sheriff Mitchell and DA Hopkins charged Bismarck Dinius with the death of his passenger Lynn Thorton and protected their deputy Russell Perdock, charging him with no crimes. During the course of the criminal trial cover-ups, illegal actions, jury tampering, and a host of other issues spelled the doom of Mitchell and Hopkins and the total unanimous jury acquittal of Bismarck Dinius. A federal civil rights trial of massive proportions has been settled in San Francisco federal court with several million dollars going to Mr. Dinius. Both Mitchell and Hopkins were key individuals in the attempted prosecution of Bismarck Dinius and cover-up of the truth of the accident. With this incident in mind we launched the sheriff Mitchell Watch Blog, of which our URL remains the same but our Blog name has now changed to Lake County Government Watch. During the adventures of our first year we were able to elect Sheriff Frank Rivero into the sheriffs position. For 4 years running the GOB network has attacked sheriff Rivero. A phony Brady process by DA Donnie Anderson, a Trumped up recall attempt by Brian Martin and Rob Brown, and a vote of no confidence by the BOS were some of the constant attacks by this elitist network. Now in the recent election, the local media showing no journalistic integrity has assisted in taking our sheriff out of office, he is being replaced by a Good Old Boy who is directly connected to former sheriff Rodney Mitchell. Although we will have one or two new supervisors in district's 2 and 3, we are saddened with the loss of sheriff Rivero. Sheriff Rivero was of Cuban blood. The severe racism still embedded in the power brokers of Lake County and their family and friends remains a major issue. However we are steadfast in our dedication to you the people of this county and of furthering transparency, honesty, and government integrity in our county and beyond.
What we have found during the course of our own investigations in the county is stunning to say the least. It was discovered that a local Internet paper called Lake County News run by Liz Larson and her husband John, in our opinion were in collusion with local government officials. We then exposed this paper for its biased and fascist operations discrediting their reporting and any semblance of credibility they once had. The Record Bee has done no better and due to a massive amount of pressure local editor Mandy Feder is leaving the paper. Both papers outright attacks on Sheriff Rivero scraped the bottom of journalistic integrity. One of the more significant discoveries also exposed several of our local Board of Supervisors to the citizens scrutiny. Most significant is Rob Brown, whom we continue to bring the light of transparency and exposure to his actions and Neanderthal approach to governance.
As together we continue our Blog and our efforts towards community awareness and change we want to thank the many citizens from deputies current and former to just good folks helping and offering assistance.
This process of change in a county or government system run through an entrenched multi-generational nepotistic, wink wink, system of government(GOB's or Good Ole Boys) is difficult to accomplish, new ideas and change are not embraced. Those that have the power and control will not give it up easily. Thank you for joining us here, we are the voice of the voiceless of which in today's world there are far to many whose voices are not heard.
Finally as of this editing, we are but a few days away from 2,000,000 page views in 6 short years, in this a county of 60,000 and change. All of you are the reason we hit that milestone.

Who's job was sacrificed in probation so soon after Rob voluntarily quit the Sheriffs dept to give it to Rob?
Who's job did Rob then sacrifice to hire Brian Martin to the number two spot in Probation?
Neither of the two had experience in Probation that I can find.
If Rob's and Brian's positions did not require experience Who was/is the decider when it comes to Top jobs with the county?
"Nepotism"&"Cronyism" has no place in County Government.
I find it offensive that the special people can move around in county positions at will while so many others are passed over or eliminated to make room for them.
Brian Martin has publicly stated that should he succeed in the next election he will quit his present position at Probation.
Only in Lake County can you expect and be paid to Campaign for yet another County Position.
Unless of course your last name is Martin...

Get ready for I'm voting for you hardball questions.
Get ready for I'm voting for you hardball questions.
Can anybody tell me why the DA's office has not charged Craig Clausen's kid with assault yet? My friend was attacked by Craig Clausen's kid back in October 2013 -while at school mind you and the other day we called the DA's office on the case to see what was taking so long there still has nothing filed on it. Is this going to be one of those cases when they claim the time to file ran out so there will be nothing that can be done? This is just so stupid because everyone knows the boy is a punk but then they do learn what they see at home and maybe he can say he is sorry to my friend and get off scott free just like his dad did when he roughed up his old lady neighbor. If this kid doesn't get charged what message does that send to people and this boy in particular? My dad's got power and he has powerful friends so I can do anything I want and there are no consequences to face, who will he beat up next time he gets mad? How bad will the next beating be? Will he have to kill someone before anyone thinks it's important enough to dare show him his behavior is wrong? oh no that's right Perdock killed someone and those same powerful friends let him get a freebie too. Thank you DA's office for your concern for the little guys - I think my vote will go to Mr. Ross and hope he gets that place back in line with how a real prosecutors office should run.
Kathy Maynor thank you for the updates on the show and info about what Don Anderson said. I hope if Andre Ross wins the election then it sounds like he needs to get some new top people to assist him because clearly the ones who have been there steer the boss in the wrong direction. Look at all the dumb moves DA Anderson has made so far, I have to assume he speaks to his top people Deputy DA and Chief Investigator to assist him in making moves or decisions and if those two don't do anything to let him know it is a dumb move then why would Andre Ross trust their judgment? I say Andre Ross should clean house!
Ron Green interviewing Brian Mitchell..Awwwwwww how cute it will a regular lovefest on the radio, I wonder if they will hold hands while they talk....LOL Ron such a poser!!! I don't even listen to the idiot anymore.
If Ron can stop su%&ing off Martin here are some questions he can ask him.
As a major Mitchell supporter in the past election here are some questions just to see if anything about Martin has changed:
1. Given the terrible racist attacks on Rivero during the last election are we to believe you have suddenly changed?
2. What role did you play in the Rhonda Rully scam. and do you think it was a fair thing to attempt?
3. Rob Brown is a key supporter of yours including John Jensen, Tommy Andrews(he pulled the gun on Howe in the bar with Brian there) and Renee Leffler(kat women)what does this say about your own integrity? Do you support Rob Brown>
4. What role in the "screen tests" the deputies conducted did you play?
5. How did you access the Rimms system with your private investigation business you had with Howe.
6. Who paid for the private investigators to go to Florida to try and dig up dirt on Rivero in the last election? Taxpayer money did most say.
Question to Ron Green, since Ron and all of us known Chalk does not have a chance, Ron are you voting for Martin. the answer must be yes since there are no other choices.

You can bet Ron and Brian got together and rehearsed the questions and Ron gave Brian the answers that Ron wants to hear...
Just like he did with Donny.
Donny came with his prepared notes like always...
Booo!

But Brian only mentions two county positions? Why is that?
Brian has held four local gov positions and Brian has Quit every one.
Only a privileged class would be given that many opportunity's to suck at the county trough.
Name one other county employee that quit and has been rehired that didn't belong to the elite group?
Cronyism and Nepotism in the county is out of hand and giving Brian Mitchell another county position only encourages it.

Poor Ron he lost all credibility with his love affair with Martin. Well it was a nice run Ron, now go away.LOL
That is why Brian says that if? he is elected ALL Internal Investigations will be done in house...
No need for outside investigators snooping in on his business...
Cept maybe a corrupt DA like daddy Mitchell had...

Here goes Brian Martin on the Ron Green show, repeating the "what if" question about Perdock from the last radio show he was on. Are his callers scripted too, and the ones in between that "can't be heard" and are cut off not on the script?
Mitchell handled the Boat indecent wrong But yet you stayed on and supported Mitchell?
If you had the morals then about Mitchell that you claim to have now about the sheriff why didn't you quit then?
The truth is you are a Mitchell Clone.

God worst show Ron has done. Talk about boring radio, I fell asleep twice while Ron was talking!!!! Ya the GOB's are all pumped up cause they call in and think they are accomplishing something with Ron's Big 200 listeners....LOL Wow what a joke Green has become.

"Nepotism"&"Cronyism" has nothing to do with hard work.
That's why it is so wide spread in the county.
A good example is the Martins.
Lt.Brian Martin snuggled up to Mitchell through out the Perdock cover up and corruption uncovered during the campaign.
The citizens elected Sheriff Rivero to clean up the mess and Lt.Brian Martin quit?
Go figure.
We don't want a Family owned and run county!!
Brian Martin, a former sheriff's lieutenant currently serving as assistant chief of the Lake County Probation Department,
Martin said he's pursuing the sheriff's job, and the role of public servant, because service to the community is a family tradition.
"Nepotism"&"Cronyism" has nothing to do with hard work.
Just so you know Brian had 2 other county jobs between working for the Sheriff and where he is at Probation, he first was a court investigator then had a short stint with the DA's office as an investigator.
My god the man has had four public employee positions already.
he voluntarily quit one to go to another and another that he will now use as a stepping stone to another.
His wife, Crystal, works as a victim advocate in the District Attorney's Office's Victim-Witness Division.
His mother, Joyce Campbell, is a retired prosecutor who now works part-time at the Self-Help Law Center in Clearlake.
Martin's father is Judge Richard Martin, who has presided over Lake County Superior Court's Department 2 since 2005.
And who has paid and will pay for this?
We have, And we will.
Enough already.

I tried to call into Ron's show but got a busy signal. I doubt he would have put me on anyway. The person who said I've had my 15 minutes of fame on the Dinius jury and I'm an idiot.....skip the next few paragraphs, as you will find them painful to read. I had only been in the county a few years when I was placed on the Dinius jury, and can only say that I am shocked and disappointed that none of the other 11 jurors or the alternates aren't speaking up, to remind this county and to inform newer residents of what we had when that case went to trial. Brian Martin mentioned on the radio that one of the things he would do differently is administer a breath test immediately, which Jim Beland suggested and was shut down for. That would have been good, but the major blunders on both the part of the Sheriff and DA were much more obvious and shameful. Brian Martin knows what they were and didn't speak out. I voted for Rivero and Anderson to improve county law enforcement. But I believe what Jill Ravitch (DA of Sonoma Co.) believes. "It is the DA's sole responsibility to determine criminal liability - not to evaluate the Sheriff's Office protocol or training procedures". Rivero has made many, many improvements, and DA Anderson has been fighting him all the way. I support Andrew Ross for DA. Sandy Bayles
Breathalyzers are not thought to be as reliable as blood test for BACs so the decision at the scene of the boat wreck was made in order to get the most unimpeachable evidence possible. I suppose it would have been preferable to get BOTH kinds of test done, but the breathalyzer would have been criticized had it been the only method used.
What were the blunders, you might ask? You talk about our Sheriff costing the county some money for attorneys....there were 14 lawsuits or more against us when Sheriff Mitchell was in office. It wasn't in the press enough, but the sailboats all left Clearlake after we let a Deputy Sheriff drive over a sailboat, killing a mother (who also previously worked in law enforcement) and then didn't go after the guilty party, instead charging the sailboat "driver" who was barely going 5-10 miles per hr. in the dark!! Dispatch should have ignored Perdock when he said "Get help, but call CHP and tell them we have this covered". The Sheriff AND the DA should have insisted that the investigation be immediately turned over to others, instead of that happening later. Blood evidence shouldn't have been stored in a vehicle overnight, Perdock should not have been allowed in a building where he could access RIMS, we shouldn't have had to pay a jury to sit for days and days and listen to testimony regarding whether the sailboat lights were on or off!! Are you kidding?? He was going a minimum of 45 miles per hour in a speedboat, in the dark, with people on his boat, and wasn't even out in the middle of the lake. He was showing off. I don't care if he hadn't had a single beer all day long, he should have been charged with reckless endangerment. It was not, as he said, "just" an accident. But Perdock was never, ever charged. What does that tell the public about double standards? And I bet you a million dollars that if I needed help and Brian Martin were to ever work for the Sheriff's Office again, he wouldn't answer the call because of who I am. Ask Bill Shields about the time Brian arranged for him to have to sit in the hot sun to try to defend Rivero against the Recall Petition that Martin and Ron Brown's son so badly wanted signed. He made the manager make Bill move to the public sidewalk, because that's where he had been told he (Martin) had to stand....never mind that it was over 100 degrees, Bill is up in years, and was dressed nicely (not in summer shorts and a T-shirt). Martin is not compassionate, doesn't report things that should be, and is waaayyy too friendly with the DA. Working relationships are important, yes, and compromise and civility are necessary, but I would take Rivero's morals and judgment any day over his. Keep Rivero. Sandy Bayles

Why would Becky Mitchell be a threat? She has MS and is in a wheel chair? Farrington has several black friends, Renee Leffler has not had anything to do with Kip in like 3 years and is married. I know her and her husband ride motorcycles with the black deputy and a black retired firefighter, Ringen has several black friends. So where do you come up with these people being racist? Just because they do not support Rivero does not make them racist.
Ha ha ha some of my best friends are Black eh?? Oh 236 your are indeed clueless. Ringen has several Black friends too? Right and JJ loves the native americans, and Martin never did screen tests, and when you go to a Martin function it isn't all white, Renee hasn't a person she is friendly with who ain't white. If your a Mitchell your a threat regardless my friend this is Lake County. Kip by the way is as racist as they come, I have heard the comments. Get a life dude your clueless
Agreed 1228. The sad thing is Bruce still thinks his little site is bad ass. He truly does. Much like Frank thinks he is going to win the election.
Last election almost everybody wanted a Rivero sign. He had way more than Mitchell and it showed in the polls. This election nobody wants a Rivero sign in their yard. I mean nobody. He has screwed over every group in the county. You name it, Frank has jammed it to them dry. Pretty hard to win an election with nobody in your corner. C Ya Frank

2:47 You obviously are mistaken. Why don't you ask Deputy Walter White (who is black) about the Lefflers. Or ask Toby Edmonds the retired Arson Investigator about Ringen & the Lefflers. I have personally seen the above mentioned out socially. I dont make it a habit to stick up for people, but I find your claims here to be a total lie.
Birds of a feather 303, if what you say were true you would not see such vehement support for a known racist named Martin. You might want to re-think your theory. Nuff said, you are who you support and hang with.
Wow Mandy and the RB better watch out or they will end up like JJ and Lizzy, a failed paper and no where to go. Man I bet Mandy's spanking hurt as much as JJ and Lizzy's did. What a hammering.
Speaking of Kip and Renee, I wonder if Renee's hubby knew what Leffler was doing with Kipster while he was still married. Now when Rivero confronted Kip and asked him straight up if Renee was married and if he knew it, and Kip lied about it, Rivero had to dump KIpster as we had two married people fooling around on each of their spouses. These my friends are the ones supporting Martin. Nice folks huh.Hey Renee what happened at the storage shed where the stolen bullet proof vests were hidden? You said something about that, now what was it. Brian have you come clean yet your supporters have not. How about your screen tests you conducted on Native Americans and Hispanics was that fun for you. You use to laugh like crazy while you drove remember?? Brian??? Are you there??? JJ when you were fired from the RB for your racist rant against Native American's is that when you decided to try your own paper??
Recently Judge Martin ruled on a senior housing rent control issue before his court. Mr. Nelson Stasser wrote an opinion piece concerning Judge Martins ruling against his efforts to protect the seniors from rental pricing hardships. Although all generally(including Mr. Stasser) agree that the rent control initiative had legal make-up and wording issues that needed to be corrected, but this was not the crux of Mr. Stassers opinion. The paragraph below suggests a far more sinister reason for Judge Martins ruling. As Mr. Stasser opined.
“And then I realized that the conclusion had been foregone. Judge Martin would never have made any other decision: he is a member of the power structure of Lake County, which consists of all white, all male, all conservative and relatively wealthy(by LC standards) individuals. He was appointed by a Republican governor. These folks believe that old people in economic distress should have planned better. However, there are many seniors in Lake County who have worked hard all of their lives, but never earned enough money to acquire significant savings. These seniors are not asking for frills; merely that their income does not shrink at the hands of predatory park owners.”

This article was written almost 2 years ago:
But something has always seethed under the surface of Lake County. Racism, and in time it manifested in every corner of the county. Some deputies were racist, many of you know the names and the incidents to which I will not elaborate on in this delivery. There was a breeding of racism, against Hispanics, Blacks, Asians and Native Americans or for that matter anyone who was not as close to a WASP as one could get. This ignorant propensity for racism reared its ugly head during the last sheriffs election, and still on local Internet sites words like “Cisco”, “Spic”, “Cuban drug runner”, and a host of other names are used. Many of you are cognizant of our current racist who also plies his trade on the Internet outlets in our county. Clint Fritzgerald known to some as KKK Klint. Many of you also know that the simple mentioning of his name will bring his wrath of racist ramblings to the comment section of this article.
As Lake County began it's decline in the mid 70's and economic conditions deteriorated, a great number of houses were lost, closer water venues became available at reservoirs south of here and Clear Lake lost its appeal. It was during those times that more who were racist stayed in the county and the demographics of diversity shifted to majority white. Lake County tried to hide it, but the passive racism as mentioned lived on, resurfaced and in fact thrived and grew for many years.
In the latest housing boom gone bust new “blood” came into the county, a younger more progressive population came to roost and issues of racism began to surface and be exposed. Not only within our local LE departments but in local government as well. It will be critical if Lake County is to continue its growth out of our racist biased and past not to PR the racism in our county, but to expose it, only the powerful light of the truth shone directly on the words, and acts of racism in our county can carry us to a greater and wiser community, devoid of the ignorant darkness of judgment by color.
But something has always seethed under the surface of Lake County. Racism, and in time it manifested in every corner of the county. Some deputies were racist, many of you know the names and the incidents to which I will not elaborate on in this delivery. There was a breeding of racism, against Hispanics, Blacks, Asians and Native Americans or for that matter anyone who was not as close to a WASP as one could get. This ignorant propensity for racism reared its ugly head during the last sheriffs election, and still on local Internet sites words like “Cisco”, “Spic”, “Cuban drug runner”, and a host of other names are used. Many of you are cognizant of our current racist who also plies his trade on the Internet outlets in our county. Clint Fritzgerald known to some as KKK Klint. Many of you also know that the simple mentioning of his name will bring his wrath of racist ramblings to the comment section of this article.

If Brian can't handle his own money I don't want to see his name on any of my hard earned tax dollar checks.
The one he is getting now is one too many...

From the associated press article
LAKEPORT, Calif. — Three young black men break into a white man's home in rural Northern California. The homeowner shoots two of them to death — but it's the surviving black man who is charged with murder.
In a case that has brought cries of racism from civil rights groups, Renato Hughes Jr., 22, was charged by prosecutors in this overwhelmingly white county under a rarely invoked legal doctrine that could make him responsible for the bloodshed.
He is scheduled to go on trial Nov. 27.
"It was pandemonium" inside the house that night, District Attorney Jon Hopkins said. Hughes was responsible for "setting the whole thing in motion by his actions and the actions of his accomplices."
Prosecutors said homeowner Shannon Edmonds opened fire Dec. 7 after three young men rampaged through the Clearlake house demanding marijuana and brutally beat his stepson. Rashad Williams, 21, and Christian Foster, 22, were shot in the back. Hughes fled.
'Provocative Act' doctrine used
Hughes was charged with first-degree murder under California's Provocative Act doctrine, versions of which have been on the books in many states for generations but are rarely used.
The Provocative Act doctrine does not require prosecutors to prove the accused intended to kill. Instead, "they have to show that it was reasonably foreseeable that the criminal enterprise could trigger a fatal response from the homeowner," said Brian Getz, a San Francisco defense attorney unconnected to the case.
Advertise
The NAACP complained that prosecutors came down too hard on Hughes, who also faces robbery, burglary and assault charges. Prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty.
The Rev. Amos Brown, head of the San Francisco chapter of the NAACP and pastor at Hughes' church, said the case demonstrates the legal system is racist in remote Lake County 100 miles north of San Francisco. The sparsely populated county of 60,000 people is 91 percent white and 2 percent black.

Bring what on I think the Lovelace folks just have to watch and wait, Mandy and the gang seem to be setting table for themselves. LOL But when they do man does the group know how to throw them under the bus. Oh by the way, I heard, Mandy has really been reeled in at this point, and also that there is more coming based on her stupid decision. You might want to back off 502 your out of your league.
Remember the FAQ video that Brian and Mitchell did in the last campaign?
Brian asked Rod what he thought his biggest problem going forward was.
Mitchell said it was the "BLOG" giving the citizens a voice for truth.
Rod was right the Blog exposed Mitchell and the citizens voted him out.
Why do you think there is a constant attack on the Blog by Brian,jj,Clint and company?
They know that when the citizens are informed of the truth the GOB loose.
The GOB's have mistreated their own employees long enough and they are coming forward with their experiences.
It's one thing to crap on the public but to use Nepotism and Cronyism to prevent advancement of hard working deserving employees has to end.

Wow what a great turnout and what a great day with Frank and all his supporters, the place was packed and man was it a blast. The greatest was part was the diversity people from all walks of life were there. A great bunch of people, as always for those who support our sheriff. Geeeee we missed Ron Green today. LOL.....NOT!!!! Frank is so pumped up he feels great about how things are going and the amount of great support he has. A great day overall. The people all down to earth great people, no sunglasses kicked back on their heads no phony silicone wives, no uppity ups, no racist just a great bunch of people. Would sure be sad to see the county go backwards to where we were in the Mitchell days. Way to go Frank great job today!!!!!
7:50, are you talking about the Italian feast in Lucerne? I couldn't make it, glad to hear it went well.
Well 805 I tell you the Rivero supporters are just the greatest people, no pressure to be something your not everyone is welcome black, white, red, yellow, tan, it don't matter, those down on their luck, you name it just good wonderful kind people. All just the opposite of the Martin/Mitchell Klan, it makes you feel so comfortable and welcome.
What a shame Ron Green has decided to embrace such a stuff shirt bunch of uncaring people, he has to be hurting to know all the good people he has thrown to the side of the road for his own vendetta.
In Ron Green's self serving run for sheriff program Sat. Brian had all kinds of ways to spend money for the dept.
You know like body cameras, license plate readers ect.
Not once did Brian mention a raise for the deputy's?
In Mitchells FAQ video that Brian narrated,
Not one mention from Mitchell or Brian about the deputy's deserving a raise.
All you deputy's out there, Your on your own according to Brian..
You think Brian is in your corner? Think again,
If this works out for Brian, Brian will be the only one getting a raise...

A lot of deputies do not want Martin as sheriff, they know he will throw them to the side and bring in his old racist Mitchell buddies and they remember how Martin treated them on Porac and the threats to support Mitchell or else.

No. Illegal growers like Rob.
Brown said he discovered 7,500 pot plants on his ranch, and called deputies. He believes the growers retaliated by tearing down his fences and letting his herd of 80 bison run wild on the highway.
Yea Right Rob...

Yea Right Rob...
Brown should have gotten a ticket from Animal Control for each and every bison out on the highway. Everyone else does, at $100 a head. Apparently he got a pass. Probably for the same reason that he was offered the farm animals that come into AC first, before they ever get offered on the site; I heard that first-hand from several of their employees.
Well Brian there is your quote that you said you didn't make. You had concerns that the DA's office was accessing RiMS illegaly. Now you say it's no big deal. Which is it Brian?
Brian said he wanted to be the Sheriff for the next 12 years. That is pretty ambitious for a guy who has had six jobs and quite everyone.
Rivero was not the one making faces, that was Martin. When Rivero said Martin had concerns about RiMS abuses, Martin made an angry face, shook his head no, and threw his pencil onto the podium. Temper, temper there Brian.
Okay it is almost Thursday and I haven't seen any official response from Donnie or Brad about Stoebe having sex with the 15 year old. I'll give you a hint, if we were playing Wheel of Fortune I would ask you if there was an "S". You would answer, Yes, there are five of them.
Step up Rasmussen, you are in the path of a freight train.
Step up Rasmussen, you are in the path of a freight train.
Your calling Ringen a liar? Well that is one thing you are right about and that is exactly why Rivero kicked him off of his team last election. Then Ringen went to work for Rich Russell at the Mendocino task force. Wait, isn't that the guy that got caught stealing money from the multi-agency task force that Brian Martin was a member of.
Heck that was Wednesdays clue, here is Thursdays clue. Wheel of Fortune, is there an "M". You would say Yes, there are four of them.
Tomorrow I am going to buy a vowel. Step up Brad.
Tomorrow I am going to buy a vowel. Step up Brad.
Is not the "Chair" Becky. Is she the one who walked? And who is the Vice Chair or was? This is the Blog we can use names here, no need to beat around the bush, let's name some names and get this out and in the open.
This is the Lake County Democratic Club (LCDC), not the Central Committee of the Demo Party. No, the chair is not Becky. She is the chair of the Central Committee, not the LCDC
Ahhhhh so who is the chair for the LCDC? names please, what good is a comment if you don't have a name. I mean is it Arnold Palmer, or Jack Dempsey? or???????????
I don't believe Martin's PI business failed, and you have no evidence to support saying that it did. But how about this: How did Frank's mortuary business fail? Did he just let it die, because he had no live bodies to bully?
Are you saying Martin's business is still operating? Well he is campaigning on County time, it wouldn't surprise me if was running a business on County time too.
Frank's mortuary business ia stil in business after 30 years. The website is www.interment.com. Frank sold part of his stock (for a boatload of money) in order to return to law enforcement. I believe he kept the buildings also. All public record and easily confirmed if you bother to check your facts. Martin on the other hand filed for bankrupsy and stiffed all his creditors. Big difference.
Hey Donny Suppose I wanted to hire you to do some Criminal Law for me.
Where would I look for you?
Under Premisses Liability?

Yahoooooo the RB is endorsing Martin, the death ray has hit Martin, just like Mitchell. Now if LCN will do the same thing Rivero is a sure winner. LOL, they never learn. Thanks Mandy you have assured another Rivero victory with your endorsement. Yahooooooo
Donny has a lot of criminal law background, a daughter writing bad checks, a wife not living here but on the county insurance? Assisting and testifying on behalf of sex offenders, assisting the Hells Angels, Getting Grothe off with a hit and run DUI, and it's a site and release to Hinchliff. Think you or I would get that treatment if we were so drunk we passed out, rammed a state fence on the freeway,only to flee the scene and end up passed out on a side street. Ya just a site and release, no photo, no booking at the jail, nope just released to Mr. Hinchcliff. Just like you and I would be treated. Right? Yup Donny has a lot of criminal background experience.
Yawn....am I wrong or has LCM gotten very boring as of late? Not trying to be mean, nor judge, but just my opinion but sure is lacking any guts right now. Meh?

I would LOVE to see where this is? What is this post/picture you guys mention? 2:28?? I need a good laugh today
No post or pic to see, yesterday was honestly Kick A Ginger Day. So I was just wondering if anyone had kicked the ginger known as kitty kat.

Just copy and past in your browser window. Apparently, she just keeps yapping...now has blatantly lied, claining: " Oh, and for clarification for the trolls.. All 3 hags that I named have all at separate times posted the pic of me with the shiner." Nice lie, Renee...at least one of the so-called "hags" can prove that they didn't post it and can prove that Renee posted it herself "at separate times". Try to base a slander case on that. Oh, and according to Renee, it is all a big conspiracy, and we are all controlled by Terri Larson and Lake County Magazine, and are all shills for Rivero and Jeri Spittler, and she also claims, "I guess I should take it as a compliment if they are attacking me, they feel I am a threat." (A threat to public health, definitely...but since I'm not about to swim in that pool, no threat to me at all) No worries, Renee -- those of us who have confronted you using our real names have been lied about by you in retaliation. That doesn't scare us a bit -- funny that for someone who brags as much as you, that you wait until you have "blocked" people who don't agree with you before you go on a rant about them...sounds like you are the one afraid to own your own big mouth! If you can't back it up, don't hack it up, Putty Tat.

OPINION: DA Anderson vs. Sheriff Rivero: Who Started this Fight? Part One
A great piece is being published on LCM....By Kathy Maynor...This is a must read and spot on!!

Our DA loves helping sex offenders doesn't he.
Sheriff Rivero was not happy with D.A. Anderson’s decision to enter into a plea agreement that did not include Lazard registering as a sex offender. Sheriff Rivero telephoned Mr. Anderson and they discussed the matter. Sheriff Rivero also called Chief Rasmussen. Brad Rasmussen told Sheriff Rivero that he was the Interim Chief and did not want to get involved in any conflict. Sheriff Rivero did not remain silent on the issue. He could not change the outcome, but he had campaigned on the issue of trust and change. The handling of the Justin Lazard case seemed like “business as usual” with the same old two tier system of justice. One might equate this first conflict to a school yard brawl. Sheriff Rivero threw the first punch. You can decide if he was justified.
The pesky problem with school yard brawls is when you get caught you have to justify your action. The voters of this county will be the School Principal. They will hear both explanations, then decide.
Sheriff Rivero expressed his feelings to Chief Rasmussen, Ed Borg and D.A. Don Anderson at the time. It’s just common sense that if a person commits a sex crime, you follow the law and have that person register as a sex offender. That protects future victims in this county, in New York or any other place this offender may live or visit.
D.A. Anderson however, was asked as recently as March 22 during a radio interview about his actions almost four years ago. His explanation included a lot of bobbing and weaving. D.A. Anderson said Mr. Swanson assured him it was a “one time thing”. D.A. Anderson did not clarify how it could be a “one-time thing” if Lazard had a prior act in Monterey just before the court appearance in front of Judge Martin. D.A. Anderson went on to try to explain that Lazard was not sexually gratified by the act and somehow that made it not a sex crime. D.A. Anderson did admit Lazard had “it out and in his hand” when the Lakeport Officers approached him. We have to assume “it” means his genitals. Anderson said Lazard was in a “coma like state” when approached by the officers. D.A. Anderson was confident that Lazard would get counseling and live in New York, so everything would be fine. D.A. Anderson never spoke of the two little girls that Lazard exposed himself to.

I read Jeff Markham's cry baby post in Lake Controlled News today. Here are some details that Jeff forgot to talk about. In the last election Jeff was playing golf with Jack Baxter and convinced Jack to run for Sheriff as a spoiler to defeat Rivero. Jeff didn't mention that he wanted to run for Sheriff the election before that until he had a meeting with Mitchell, at Perkos, and was told by Rod that if he ran against him, he would ruin his career. Jeff didn't run. You should have heard Jeff's wife talk about how much she hated Mitchell. After Baxter lost Jeff and Jeannie's new best friend was once again Rod Mitchell. Jeff also did not give any details of his Federal sexual discrimination lawsuit that paid out a large sum of money to a former employee.
After almost 16 years Rod Mitchell, during a heated election, becomes concerned about how his Officers are behaving and treating people? The person he appoints to do this is sexual discriminator Jeff Marham. Why doesn't LCN post any of these details?
Read between the lines people, I for one don't want to go back to the way things were.
Vote Rivero

Ed, that's all you got? Kathy doesn't claim to be a Lawyer. I don't see you disputing any of her facts. Oh, that's right, you are the guy Donnie kicked to the curb and took the case away from.
Jeff, Jack, and Donnie still play golf on Thursdays at Adam Springs. When they are done they have a good ole round of Liars Dice. They're all really good at it.
Not Ed, Phil. I must be Clint because that is what you have called me for the last two years. That and about 10 other names. LMAO
Kathy you sure talk about the law a lot for not being a lawyer. Did you take your law classes from Frank? LMAO IOW's you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

I have never claimed to be a lawyer. I am happy to engage in honest dialog about the facts. The negative nonsense is helpful because it shows the fear some people have of the truth. I hope LL will keep all negative comments against me up. It helps to get people searching for the truth. The people in this county smell your fear and they are going to stand up and be counted. Have a great day!!!

Really Jeff? On September 1, 2010 Mitchell announced you had accepted a newly created position, Quality Assurance Inspector. You state, "During September 2010 I developed a Quality Assurance Program." So the position was "created" but not "developed" when you accepted the position? Then, 2 months later, "When Sheriff Rivero was elected" you resigned the position. Why would Mitchell create but not develop a new position, and give you that position, 2 months before an election that would see both of you leave the SO? I call gibberish.

Dang Ed Borg, How could you question Donny about Criminal Law?
Didn't you know that Donny has been practicing Criminal Law for 20 years and he has probably forgot more than you will ever know about Criminal Law?
I think you owe Donny a apology.

It shows you know nothing of the law Kathy even though you talk of it like you think you're some sort of an expert.
Like I said, you and Frank must have went to the same law school because you both have about the same knowledge of the law. But don't let that stop you from spouting off. We love to laugh at your ignorance. Franks too. He is the laughing stock of the county.

Anderson lied to the court about Justin Lazard.
Justin Lazard was arrested by Soledad Police on 6/21/2006 CRMKO8009 People vs. Justin Lazard his defense attorney was Bruce Kitchin in Monterey Superior Court. 13 days later Justin Lazard was arrested in Lakeport CA for Indecent Exposure (13 days later) not 3 weeks as Don Anderson wants people to believe. Justin Lazard lived in Desert Hot Springs CA not New York. 13 days 2 arrests for Indecent Exposure and exposing himself to children and Don Anderson refuses to make him register as a sex offender. What does that tell you about Don Anderson?

We can do better.
We can do better.
Everyone with a county job has been campaigning while on the clock. To do it so blatantly is ridiculous. We are paying them to campaign..... WTF. A miss use of county funds that go's without comment or consequence. I Will not vote for anyone that has done this, I don't care who the opponent is. I'm sick of these pricks. Time for new blood.
This "Blog" is crap. People talk smack and lies they can't prove. Also posts are deleted if it's not to the admins liking, against Rivero, and/or against any bs this "Blog" factions about. Please note there's no cursing in my post and blog is with a capital "B" who's the first to delete my post? Hooray for you. Lol. "The voice of the voiceless" Ha.

Then those two people tell two people and those four people tell two people.and.. Well you get the idea...

DA Don Anderson has shown his colors in several ways. The worst, by apparently doing favors for friends (cronyism) and in turn protecting sex offenders. This is a blatant disservice to the citizens and puts the DA's office in a corrupt position. Protecting sex offenders and not cooperating with an illegal RIMMS investigation. Not only should Don Anderson be taken out of the DA's office in the up coming election, he needs to be looked at regarding the illegal access of RIMMS within the DA's office.
Lt. Brian Martin
The investigation of alleged inappropriate access to the RIMS files included an interview with Lieutenant Brian Martin. Lt. Martin became aware of the alleged inappropriate use of logins by District Attorney investigators from staff. Lt. Martin explained that a Lake County Sheriffs Dispatcher was permitted greater access to Sheriffs Department data than a DA Investigator. Lt. Martin stated that he was unaware of any special exemption given to the Lake County District Attorney's Office to permit those investigators to use their credentials as a dispatcher when they were performing duties for the District Attorney's Office. According to Lt. Martin, the number of searches conducted by the District Attorney investigators appeared to be greater than what he would have expected and he expressed concerns about the possible misuse of login credentials.

This is going to be a very interesting election. Just as the last election when citizens realized that corruption was actually alive and well in LC. Fact; The corrupt sheriff (Mitchell) and corrupt DA (Hopkins) were thrown out of their positions. It has been said many times cronyism, nepotism and covering-ups need to stopped in Lake County. The only way is to try and not elect candidates tied to this type of activity. If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, walks like a duck it is probably a duck. Vote smart on election day! Throw out Anderson and keep the current sheriff who is doing his best to expose LC corruption.
There are to many disturbing facts that should not be ignored concerning Don Anderson and Brian Martin.
The Catholic clergy will probably be looking for a change of venue to Lake County for priests that are charged with unlawful sex acts. Referred to as Lake County sexual predators sanctuary, DA Don Anderson director.
LCM article on DA Anderson paints a very ugly picture and any rational person can see the corruption in his handling of the Lazard case. He needs to go. The article states facts not hearsay.
PaRT 2 of Kathy Maynors expose on the sheriff, Donny and the collusion and corruption in our county including yet another scathing report on RiMMs and corruption. Great write up here is the link. On Lake County Magazine.
LC corruption
LC corruption
Why after all these years of failure do these GOB's think they deserve another single day as officials in our county. Over 20 years they have totally destroyed our county. What are their excuses? How do they justify this horrible record that has us as the worst rated county in our state?
7:10 We have no need for justification; we just enjoy totally destroying counties, and we will continue to do so when Brian is elected and Donnie is re-elected.
Well pigs love wallowing in their own crap, your statement is proof enough of that. You forgot to add, and if you don't like it move, so we can have our crap to ourselves. Yup that is Martin and the GOB's.
The article on LCM is blowing the doors off of this corrupt administration and Donny if you have not read it go to LCM and take a read. Here are a couple of the comments on the article:
By philip Murphy on 04/23/2014
WOW! Excellent piece, and this is just one example of how Don protects perverts, drug dealers and crooked cops. Don Anderson is a disgrace to LE and the legal profession, he should have been disbarred already for his slush fund he runs without any guidelines or supervision of any sort.
By larry anderson on 04/23/2014
BRAVO to Sheriff Rivero, a man who has the guts to stand up for what is right.

Had this been any other Sheriff it might not have been a blip on the radar. However, Sheriff Rivero was not just any Sheriff. Sheriff Rivero was considered an “outsider". He had just won an election that, even by Lake County standards, was not pretty to watch. It was dirty politics on every level. His character was attacked and his family was attacked. Sheriff Rivero received death threats. He was the underdog that no one expected to survive the attacks, let alone win.
Should the citizens of this county in the majority elect Brian Mitchell to replace Rivero, then you would simply have to write off this county as dead in the water. It would mean the return to the Mitchell days of crime and corruption and would be the final nail in the coffin of a dead county. Let's hope the majority will not let that happen.
Oh look right where they want the kids to go to college!!!
From the sheriffs department:
Law enforcement and medical personnel responded to the scene of a shooting late Tuesday night in Lucerne.
The incident was first reported just after 10:40 p.m
Several shots were reported to have been fired with a handgun at a residence in the 6300 block of 12th Avenue, reports from the scene indicated.
Central Dispatch received reports that one person had been shot, with the male subject who was responsible fleeing the scene on foot toward the Tower Mart at the corner of 12th Avenue and Highway 20.
Do we all agree this million dollar college debacle is the perfect example of why this county continues to be an epic failure?

8:30 pm, My question would be, when did the Sheriff's Office get on scene? We all know in this day and age, you can't take a person into custody until a crime has been committed. What was done wrong.
Fortunately for the GOBs, Kathy Maynerds' articles were in LCM, which means that maybe 40 people will see it, maybe 10 FB likes, maybe 5 shares, while the vast majority of Lake County goes on with their lives.
Actually 1011, Part 1 of the article had over 300 hits the first day, and Part 2 has over 200 today. Usually an Article of this nature over the course of a month will get a minimum of 700 hits, and can get up to 5,000 for a month.
Thank you to those that have been supportive of my long article. Thanks to LCM for printing it. Still have a few more parts to go.
Haha, well I have just shared it on 11 different sites plus on my page with over 916 friends. So 10:11, that little theory of yours is a wash! Kathy is doing one hell of a job and I am sure there is a lot more to come lmfao, When will you learn to never under estimate the under dog, The community is more aware than ever, and it will continue to be that way. I don't care how much coaching Brian is getting from Mitchell, we will always have the last laugh with you idiots! Sorry Buddy, that seat is taken and RIVERO'S NAME IS ON IT!
Kathy Maynors 3rd installment is up and available on LCM another great piece and a stinging attack on the GOB network in our county. Just click the link below:
The fight
The fight
Ha ha ha, LCN is so down in the dirt, ever notice that even in their constant hit pieces the latest by a typical idiot and corrupt GOB named Jeff Markham, they get two comments and a couple of likes and that is it. Jeff is just another malcontent who has a bad bad record of not only performance but is firmly entrenched in the old boy network. LMAO JJ's going to go on a drinking binge soon I can feel it. LOL
JJ never stopped! I saw him recently and he looked like he had just crawled out from under a freeway overpass. Beer gut, unshaven, sores on his face, dirty, grease stains on his shirt. Is he homeless? What a mess!
918: you sound like sour grapes. I quit LCN a long time ago because of the dribble that continued to leak from the pages. As far as LCM is concerned I do not know Terri but the articles there are very good. I am on the edge of my seat waiting for the next installment of Rivero versus Anderson. I'd vote for anyone befor i marke the slate for Anderson. Especially after the article I just read. I voted Rivero last time and will again. He is our last hope for justice in this system.
Did anyone see the article in the RB online about Russ Perdock speaking at team dui. Really, he kills a women in a boating crash gets a pass and now they have him as a pilar of the community. The RB has gone mad along with the sponsors of the event. Issac Bimbo the guy who wrote the article is an idiot.
9:38 Thanks for the heads up. I don't usually read the Record-Bee (we know all of the reasons not to give them our quarters) but I checked this out because of your tip. I couldn't be more outraged! I would be okay with Perdock being on Team DUI if it had been a court ordered sentence, but as we all know he got away scott free from the boating accident that resulted in a death, he is not the best example to be standing in front of our children and saying he was angry at the driver..... Let's assume for a minute that Russ Perdock hadn't been drinking on that fateful day, and that the sailboat tiller operator was. NEVERTHELESS -- are you kidding me??? He has been quoted in the paper as saying that Dinius should have been found guilty. Well, this juror member feels that the entire GOB system in Lake County shouldn't have covered for Perdock, and he should have been charged with the numerous things he had done wrong. He was speeding in the dark (yeah, yeah, there is no speed limit on the lake.... ever heard of "FOR THE CONDITIONS"??? He endangered the life of the pre-teen or young teen who was on the boat with him (regardless that she said she wasn't scared...all kids want to be known as brave). He broke several boating rules that state that the sailboat has the right-of-way over the speed boat (and his ex testified that Perdock had a "need for speed". He has no right to preach to others!!!! Sandy Bayles (yeah, I also know I already had my 15 minutes of fame....blah blah blah) Vote Rivero for Sheriff so this never happens again.
Now let's try and be civil, even though it is Lake County. Who around here could moderate from the center any kind of debate/interview between any of the candidates or issues? LCN for their unbiased opinions, RB for their unbiased opinions both for their in depth journalistic abilities?
1102 Perdock also had pain pills in his system, higher levels than what is normal, I have seen the toxicology report...
What has happened to KPFZ? It has been off the air since Wednesday afternoon. Isn't this the time when they planned to raise money?
Perdock, Brown, Joey, Anderson, Jenson, Feder, Fullton, Martin, Borg. These folks share a lot more than RIMMS and CLEATS
When Brian shot his neighbors dog with a pellet gun, did Brian pay the vet bill? or was that bill included in his bankruptcy?
What is the most powerful citizen communication medium in the county?
Lovelace and the Blog of course.
What is the least effective? It's a tie between the RB and dead on arrival LCN.

The slug Brian Martin and the GOB's do not like the truth, for some reason it does not set them free. LOL
Brian paid the $300 vet bill before his bankruptcy. He was so broke that had to hurt. Eh Brian, you're telling people that you shot the dog but you are lying about where you shot the dog and what kind of gun it was. You trapped the dog in the garage and it was a pellet gun, not a BB gun. You are also saying it was an accident. BS Brian and guess what, accident or not, it is still a crime.
Ixnay on the dogshooter eh
Ixnay on the dogshooter eh
Donnie, you still haven't told us about your affair with Shelly. Is that why she got off from her MJ bust?
That's funny 9:29. Truth is that Rivero has put out twice as many signs as last election. Read his election reports. The problem is the signs are being stolen almost as fast as they can be put up. There were reports of Rivero's signs being stolen in the last election. No other candidate has reported signs being stolen in either election. Same players, same game.
not sure what you are reading, 1019, but Brosnan's ad is there, so is Jim Steele's, so is Herb Gura's, so are others. there are comments there by Phil, and bruce, and others, maybe you need to check your url, make sure you don't have lcn, lmfao
BRAVO, BRAVO. Thanks Lakecomagazine and Kathy Maynor, for your noble deeds in putting the truth out there for the public to read.
After reading the articles on LCM one can easily see how bad it would be for Martin to get anywhere near the sheriff office. This county cannot go backwards into the old ways of corruption and crime. Imagine having Rob Brown, Brian Martin and Donny the dufus in office at the same time. I would say just grab a D-9 Bulldozer have mow this place down. Yikes
Whoa wait a minute you all tell me if I am reading this right: Frankandgang bashes and talked shit about the RB and everybody else in the county and then come election time wants to run adds in their paper and wants their support. WTF he could not have really done this I thought. But I read this blog and sure enough he did!!!!! I cannot imagine Rivero keeping his job after all the shit talking and crazy things he has done. At the very least he is going to lose the election and turn tail and run out of this county in shame. Every politician knows you don't alienate your core groups of support. Oh Frank, stupid stupid stupid.
1038
Everyone else is the citizens who elected Rivero.
As you have learned We didn't need your help last election and we don't need you this election.
Wake up, There are more of us common citizens than your GOB group.
Until you can figure out a reason for the citizens to join the GOB you will always be out numbered.

Rod Mitchell was voted out for a reason and the citizens don't want Brian Mitchell for the same reasons...

I have been noticing lately on FB when folks find a dog in their backyard they take a picture of them and post it on FB to try and find the owner.
Not like the old days when you trap them in your garage and shoot them with a pellet gun.
Lake county has come a long way in spite of some...

At the DUI awareness event for teens, Brian Martin kissed Perdock's ass so hard (rumor has it) it left a bruise! Can you imagine this horrifying nightmare? Brian wants to be Sheriff and bring Perdock back into the fold... (Shudder!)
It's bad enough that Perdock is on the Fire Board and Teen DUI, having not only never been charged with crimes related to the boating accident, but also going around talking about how he was a victim too... he hasn't paid any dues, and isn't the person who should be telling the teens how angry he was at the driver of the car when an incident resulted in death.... If he gets back into the Sheriff's Dept., I will be in front of the Sheriff's Office in all of my spare time with picket signs and all of the volunteers I can get. You can count on it.
I heard today that Perdock has a couple of Pyramid scams going on.I wouldn't swear to it but some do.
