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.

Wow that is a great comment 615 it really is about give and take isn't it. I haven't heard it said any better then what you just said. An understanding that we all may have situations come up that requires our neighbor to give a little, and thus we exchange understandings that for the benefit of all our rights we have to fight together to ensure the government doesn't trample on the will of all of us. Very classy post and well said.
Rob Browns holier then thou ego, will ensure the passage of the initiative if it goes to a vote of the people. Thanks Rob.
5:20 Tru-dat. Green looked panicky today when he was begging the supes to adopt the grower's plan. Tells me those guys are not at all confident of a win. They need it to be adopted because they can't count on the voter's support.
why would anybody be happy with county's plan 701? it wasn't even up to state minimums, these bozo's are trying to take away rights we already have as californians.
6:58 It is Rob's attitude and direction of the BOS that has created the "Us against Them Attitude".
Hopefully the citizens will come to demand that the Rob controlled BOS represent all the citizens and not just the special interests that have controlled the county for far too long.
The nay sayers might take note of the number of new voters that registered just to vote Mitchell and Hopkins out.
Add that to the citizens that registered to vote just to be able to sign the referendum and ordnance petitions.
Change is coming to lake co like no one ever thought could happen.

Rob, When did you all get together to plan what you were going to say and do today? From a outsider looking in it all looked rehearsed to me.

Word post 739 that has been said here many times the fact of the matter is MJ has been illegal both federally and for the most part state wide for the past 30 years of intense attempts by various LE agencies to stop MJ, this has been to the tune of 50 billion taxpayer dollars, and MJ has increased in use ans sophistication by 100 fold during that time. In our small county the reality is, it doesn't matter what rules and regulations authorities put into place, you can buy MJ in 10 minutes about anywhere in the county, and most who buy here know people here so it is even easier. No matter what people will grow, buy, use, sell, and distribute this commodity in this county in the same manner they always have. All the illegality of the product does is keep the price high and therefore allow for crime associated with it. Slowly the powers that be are getting the picture. Since MJ is not going to be able to be "owned" by a Pharmaceutical company or the government, since it is essentially a tomato plant relative to ease of outdoor growth, no major corporation will be able to take advantage of the public when it is legal. The government has been trying to figure out for years how to capture the market in MJ. In fact if you look at the patent office on the internet you will find that the US Government owns the patents for Hashish oils, Pure THC, Cannibinol, and other components of MJ. That is a fact the government took out all those patents. Very interesting.
Klit, your daddy's name is Zane and John Jensen's brother's name is Zane. Are they one and the same Zane? Are you related to JJ?
Is that why you are so inzane?

Hey, 11:51, no problem. If it wins in June, all is good. If it loses, then it's like it's always been, no county ordinance, and if people comply with Prop 215 and SB 420 they are ok. If the Board passes another crappy ordinance, the Green Farmers will run another referendum campaign.

Vocal Local, Pat McGoon, claims Rivero personally retaliated against him for reporting a Marijuana grow in his neighborhood. He fails to state that he lives two blocks away from Rivero. He says the grower retaliated against him too. What was the retaliation Pat? Do you have proof? Did you file a complaint against either one of them? Are you saying Rivero sided with the grower, in his own neighborhood, and retaliated against you? Once again Pat, you are full of yourself and you couldn't tell the truth if you tried. Are you still thinking of that run for Sheriff? That would be funny, you and Rob Howe, running for Sheriff. Do you remember pulling the gun on Robbie when you were drunk in San Francisco? I can hardly wait for the debates.
Ok GOB's that cat is out of the bag on Victoria Brandon running against Comstock. Now here is a reality check for these being the final days of Comstock. First of all Victoria will field the same election team that put Rushing in office against Gary Lewis. This team is substantial and they are very skilled in getting out the vote, in election campaigning and overall election processes. The support base for Brandon will be all people who support and have supported Rushing in the past and that in and of itself will be numbers that Comstock will not be able to overcome. Victoria is an extremely smart individual, here husband was a noted author, and she has 10 times the intelligence of Comstock. You heard it here first, Comstock is done. Victoria will receive backing from the sierra club which she is the local president of, and a huge host of other organizations from which she will gather significant votes.
Here is a hint don't be surprised to see "others" sign up against Brown, things are in the works but won't give anymore out then that at this time.
Farrington is up in the air right now, and has not made a decision on running, he is waiting to see what field may come up against him.
The opportunity for continued change in the county is approaching and it looks very very good right now.

thanks for the reporting Lovelace, a hell of alot more information then in the local rags that is for sure!! victoria has my vote and anyone running against Brown and Farrington.
Yes!!!! Victoria will have Becky has her campaign manager, she is the head of the local democrats and of course there are more dems in this county then Rep. so this bodes very well. These people know how to run a campaign, and doesn't look like Comstock has a chance, she will muster a massive amount of money to run the campaign, and the votes are already lined up for Victoria. Me thinks Brown is headed for a surprise, and Langston just may be able to pull it off as well. Change change change, oh this has to hurt the GOB's I think I saw some actually packing bags to leave the county. LOL
Lake County Citizens for Responsible Regulations Denounces the Delay in the Vote for the Medical Marijuana Cultivation Act of 2012!

Lake County Citizens for Responsible Regulations, in association with the Lake County Green Farmers Association, would like to express our disappointment in the decision by the Lake County Board of Supervisors to delay the vote on the Medical Marijuana Cultivation Act of 2012, pending input from an unnecessarily wide array of county agencies.
We believe that certain members of the board may be calling for this input as a way to stall their vote on this very important citizens’ initiative. The Medical Marijuana Cultivation act is a simple, straight forward initiative. Its impact on land use, county finances and agriculture and other agencies are clearly spelled out in the text of the initiative. Therefore, this multi-agency impact inquiry will produce no new information and serve only to burden the agencies tasked with responding to this unnecessary request.
This unfortunate delay in implementation means that cultivation will continue to be unregulated in Lake County. Communities will not have the tools they need to impede problem grows and compassionate use farmers will not have county regulations to guide them as they prepare for the spring planting season. This delay tactic does not serve the needs of the communities that have shown their support for clear regulation with their overwhelmingly positive response to our initiative petition, which collected the signatures needed to qualify in less than three weeks.
We will continue to push for the adoption of the Medical Marijuana Cultivation Act of 2012 - fair, simple regulations that serve the needs of the patients, caregivers and the communities of Lake County.

You really don't want it to go to the ballot do you? I love how you switched from "let the voters decide" to "lets make the BOS do what the growers want."
Not exactly deomocratic.

Hey 10:10.. I'll call the Sheriff! I'm calling him a disgrace to law enforcement!!! I'm calling him an out sized ego punk!!! I'm calling him Bruce's Papi!!!!
Please explain to me why if someone does not like frank and believe he has an oversized ego and believe he is a disgrace to law enforcement, why does that become a "typical racist white supremacist" comment? I don't understand.
thanks for the explanation. It shows me that you don't have an answer. Which is the typical response from a liberal, when they don't have an answer or know they are losing an argument their last response is to use race. Oh, and by the way, I am not white.
Another useless response. If that was how you responded to questions in school I am surprised if you graduated. Try explaining your position. At least then people will know that you have a logical reason for your position. I am just asking a question and apparently you have no answer because you have no position to defend.
1211 Who are you to judge someones IQ? Your contribution to this site amounts to a bunch of canned responses that call any and all who don't share your opinion a racist. You add nothing of substance and only further the belief that this site is for the most part a waste of time. Good Job!
1234 The question was:

Looks more like the Blog is for exposing racists in the county.
112 Answering a question with a question. Typical.

121 The fact that you are comfortable with KKKlit/Nazi Boi's comments and actions on the Blog and that you choose to question only my actions toward KKKlit/Nazi Boi and not KKKlit/Nazi Boi's actions speaks loudly of your position.
KKKlit/Nazi Boi, We have been at this for far too long for you to think you are continuing to fooling anyone.
127 Again no answers just more Rhetoric. Due to the fact that you are incapable of engaging in any debate whatsoever it's you who fails at fooling anyone. At least your response was'nt more cut and paste this time. Thats a start.
100 The fact that you are comfortable with KKKlit/Nazi Boi's comments and actions on the Blog and that you choose to question only my actions toward KKKlit/Nazi Boi and not KKKlit/Nazi Boi's actions speaks loudly of your position.
134 The only posts I see on the Blog that refer to race are yours. Not all people are going to like the sheriff, or any government official for that matter. This does not automatically make them racist. It's your actions that speak loudly of your agenda.
143 You know what I'm saying as it has been said time and time again. You are the poster who chooses to inject race rather that post a rebuttal. You lack the intellect to engage in debate so instead you pull out the race card.
212
Use the Google and see the White Supremacist groups that KKKlit/Nazi Boi belongs to.
Using the Google you will find KKKlits racist comments and videos.
I didn't put all the information about KKKlit/nazi Boi on the WWW/ Internet's,

You called it. Thats what drugs and drink at an early age result in, though its possible that PB's parents are the root of PB's issues. Dropped on the head after birth or borne to addicts may be the case. Squawk! Nazi Boi! Squawk!

404Perhaps 227 and 332 are correct. You are simply not intelligent enough to discuss anything other than KKKlint. Must suck to be a one trick pony.
421 We have been down this road before.
It must suck to be KKKlit/Nazi Boi.
How about White Supremacy in Lake County?

9:32 pm, you keep asking the same question. I have never seen anyone stand with Klint and/or say he was not racist. People disagree with him. But that has not been the question to you and you are either incapable or unable to answer the question due to your lack of intelligence or your lack of factual evidence to logically debate the issue.
I find it interesting that when a person follows the rules of this site and make a logical comment that it gets deleted. Just because it might not be in lock step with the thought process of LL, it is deleted. You complain about LCN and the Bee not being fair on their reporting because you think they don't report all that should be reported. Why will you not allow opposing views?
And what view is it that you are discussing, aside from the constant diatribe about not liking the site or hanging on to the lost cause of disliking the sheriff, what views of this site to you want to logically discuss??
So what is your opposing view? Do you have a subject line, some intelligent issue opposite of what the citizens are saying here? To complain for the sake of complaining is a waste of everyones time.
So what is your opposing view? Do you have a subject line, some intelligent issue opposite of what the citizens are saying here? To complain for the sake of complaining is a waste of everyones time.
All it asked was for a logical response. But as is usual with you, you delete it so that people can't read it. Why not repost it and see if you can give a logical response to it? And it was not really about Frank. It asked why you would not respond to the question(s) instead of your normal response about racism and Klint.

Syria is descending into chaos hundreds killed in Homs the Mideast turmoil continues:
Early Saturday, the anti-Assad regime army intensified its campaign against the government’s forces as it destroyed an air intelligence building in Homs, the Syrian Media Center reported. Hours later, the media center said that a huge explosion took place in Hama close to the border entrance of Halab. And in the rebel-held al-Zabadani, the opposition fighters went on to surround a government security building, the media center said.
Ammar al-Wawi, an FSA official, told Al Arabiya that the free army vows more operations against Assad’s forces to include targets such as military and police headquarters.
Initially, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 138 of the fatalities were caused by mortar fire in the Al-Khalidiya district of Homs, which has become a flashpoint of the 10-month revolt against the regime of Assad. Civilians, including women and children were killed, a rights group said on Saturday.

3:55 I am sorry to disagree, but I know a lot of influential people and when I mention "the blog" almost no one knows what I am talking about. This site is truly the tree that fell in the forest when no one was around. I read it daily and once in awhile I learn some news from it, but association with it is not taking anybody down.
417 By the way When a tree falls in the forest it does make a sound.
That is what scares the animals.
That is what scares the animals.
Whether or not your influential friends know about the blog has little to do with association with it. The blog is entirely irrelevant, the players are not. The player's names and associations are known and that is the biggie.
Let's help you out 417, first of all we could care a less about your concept of "influential" people. The fact that you state "I know a lot of influential people" means to us you don't know crap. Setting all the bullshit aside 417 you can spin your participation anyway you want, fact is your looking your adding to the pageviews of which we are around 700 per day during a very slow time in the county for controversy and you think we give any weight to your opinion, the guy with "all" the influential friends.
Heading for our 3rd year of operation, assisting in everything from the Navarro case, to Mitchell and Hoppy's demise(remember during the peak of elections we were at 2200 page views a day), from exposing the rift raft in the old regime to going after both Mitchell and Brown through the FPPC, (remember this is Browns 2nd time being under review). 825,000 comments later, and you want to question our effect.
Remember we have modeled ourselves as the "bad boys" the site everyone says they never go to, but everyone does. We think that is funny as hell. Everyone knows if you want news to get out to the public, post it here and it will get there.
We call BS 417, but nice try.

You call BS, I call BS on you. It isn't a 'slow time in the county for controversy' at all. Unfortunately for you your buddy Frank is at the epicenter so you can't blog it. Not that that will keep it from the public.

Wow, All the kids from the Upper Lake stoners won the Academic Decathlon competition again. If my short term memory serves me right, that's 13 years in a row. Way to go kids. Thanks for helping to debunk all those myths that people like LTGOB spread.
I speak out so others know their not the only ones used by this local government.When I started telling all it was long before the Dinius case. I saw no fear with them then and I see no fear with them now. Their view is we will move on,forget. Then they can go back to where government is for them. I say again the Dinius case opened Pandora's box.
Ya right Go0b, just stopped the use of public resources and oh by the way Mitchell lost if your short term memory isn't to good like mine. Go0b, you aught to take a couple of rips it might help your mental capacity and your memory. You seem to be lost in days gone by.
I only talk about what is left in this local government.The leaders such as Mitchell and Hopkins are only bad apples Their views of how government is to run is in place. The grand jury is not only run by those you would report on but it is run for them. A system used by those in government for their good. Say what you will but I tell the truth.

It'd be interesting to know how closely the FPPC is gonna watch Joan now that they know she filed her complaint as a political opponent in the race. I guess she lied about that to them too so it raised flags. whoopsy.
638, let us be frank(no not rivero), your an idiot, first of all the FPPC is not an agency that undertakes self created investigations. They act soley on the direction of requests for investigations from the public. They only act on sworn statements turned into the agency, once they verify that a complaint has a legitimate basis, they go forward, as in the case of Brown. Brown is really going to have to be careful now about his lying as we all will be watching his next reporting and you can bet he will do it right this time and not lie. If he does he will get his ass nailed with fines and other very nasty conditions. He has received his warning letter, and that along with his attempt at cover-up on his 50,000 dollar tax lien, to which he claimed he did not know he had to pay capital gains on a house sale despite having done so numerous time prior to that is clearly showing him to be a liar, a cheat and man not to be trusted.
As far as Joan goes, kudo's to her, you can placate yourself all you want, the bottom line is that an individual nailed Brown, and as always for the GOB's they never do anything but try to ass cover when their hidden games are uncovered. Remember it is the person you guys have called every name in the book and pretty much said she does not have any validity in who she is that nailed Robby. You guys continue to get your asses kicked by the very people you say don't have a clue. Pretty sad really. We give Joan all the props in the world for taking that action.
We as the Lovelace group have endorsed no one yet in any of the upcoming races for the various positions in the county, when we do you will know it. Once all the canidates have thrown their hat's in the ring, then we will put out our endorsements. If we endorse Joan, then we will gladly say so. You should also know that are actions regardless of the winner of any of the races, is to expose the scum like Rob Brown through the debate and election process, the public ultimately will decide the outcome.
As a person we find it rather sad to disparage a person the way you GOB's do, in Joans case a cancer survivor who has fought very hard for her life, and from Chemo, to other drugs and treatments she went through it appears she has beat this terrible diseases. We might suggest you think twice about your words, as you know Lovelace has an uncanny ability to turn the public against your knuckle dragging ways. You have lost every single battle thus far, we don't anticipate that changing any time soon.

Trouble is brewing and religion is at the root of it all. Link to whole article is below this excerpt.
Calling Israel a danger to Islam, the conservative website Alef, with ties to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said the opportunity must not be lost to remove “this corrupting material. It is a ‘jurisprudential justification” to kill all the Jews and annihilate Israel, and in that, the Islamic government of Iran must take the helm.”
The article, written by Alireza Forghani, a conservative analyst and a strategy specialist in Khamenei’s camp, now is being run on most state-owned conservative sites, including the Revolutionary Guards’ Fars News Agency, showing that the regime endorses this doctrine.
Because Israel is going to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities, Iran is justified in launching a pre-emptive, cataclysmic attack against the Jewish state, the doctrine argues.
On Friday, in a major speech at prayers, Khamenei announced that Iran will support any nation or group that attacks the “cancerous tumor” of Israel. Though his statement was seen by some in the West as fluff, there is substance behind it.
Iran’s Defense Ministry announced this weekend that it test-fired an advanced two-stage, solid-fuel ballistic missile and boasted about successfully putting a new satellite into orbit, reminding the West that its engineers have mastered the technology for intercontinental ballistic missiles even as the Islamic state pushes its nuclear weapons program.

Conference with Legal Counsel: existing litigation pursuant to Government Code Sec. 54956.9(a): Estate of Hatfield v. County of Lake, et al.
This is an agenda item requiring attention from the BOS and county counsel. If you remember this is an old problem from the Mitchell regime. This is the jail suicide, where the sheriffs department and jail personal were warned that Mr. Hatfield was suicidal and that he should be put on special jail watch. The jail people and sheriffs personal were called no less then 10 times to tell them to watch him close or he may make an attempt again. When he was arrested after his parents called LE to assist them there was a hangman's noose hanging in his room. Despite all of this,Hatfield was left on regular jail watch, and no items which could assist a person in killing themselves were removed from his cell. Mental health upon the night of his arrest told LE he needs to go to a mental facility. That request was refused, thus in the end, in jail, on regular watch Hatfield took a sheet from his bunk and hanged himself.
This is the perfect example of why Mitchell had to be removed and the sheriffs department totally changed out by the new organization. None of these facts were totally reported in the local news and only Lovelace upon certain interviews reveled these facts to the public. This is going to cost the county big time and the legacy of the old regime continues to cost the citizens.

So if I read this right both LCN, and the Bee back then covered up and protected Mitchell and his band of misfits? Yup gee how unusual. No investigation just report what you are told.
Ha ha ha now LCN has decided the error of their ways, and decided they better put comments back up!!! Now you still have to sign up and the average citizen cannot post on the site without their approval. But now have changed their minds as no one was going to the paper. Duh, nice recovery, bad move, you cost yourself readers and more to question the integrity of the rag.
807 Under Mitchell, it was one screw up after another- this one all involved should be fired including the officers and doctor on duty.
Mitchell is gone now but under his command will leave LC bankrupt.

LOL now LCN is flashing a breaking news blurb at the top of their page, you know what the breaking news is??? That comments are back and are now active!!!! Ahhhhaaaaa that is so funny, the greatest breaking news I have ever seen. I think it might be to late as going through the entire paper I found 5 total comments on all articles in the entire paper. Oh look you don't have to use Facebook now!!! Ahhhaaaaa haaaaa what a turn around someone must be reading the Blog again. LOL It appears by the comments the only people who will still post on the rag is Marzzzzzzzooooocooooo and a few other GOB's from the past, I don't even see OU anymore. Sad to see a paper die like this, well I am sure they will hang on the overhead isn't to much, you can treat it like a hobby or something, but please don't call it a journalistic newspaper. In fact don't call it a paper. Hey I have an idea, call it the agenda pusher. Ya that's it, make a new name called the agenda pusher. he he
Oh look a "settlement conference" is set for March in the Hatfield case. Now with the BOS taking up the item tomorrow, one wonders what they are discussing. Well I can tell you and of course our local government folks would not say a word if it wasn't watched and showed to the citizens. What their discussing is how much money of you the taxpayers would they be willing to pay out to the Hatfield estate for our former sheriff and his minions stupid mistakes. One million, two million, three million four, last one out of the county shut the door!! LOL Of course Rob Brown and Comstock fully support the actions of our former sheriff, and believe that they hold no responsibility for the preventable death of a human being. No no not in this county opines Mr. Brown, weezz don't do things that way around here. Ifn you don't like it move to Mendocino!!! LOL
LCN looks like its going away to you? Looks to me like their rolling out new stuff. Not usually a sign of demise.
421 is the perfect example of transparency and one of the reasons the citizens rose up, started this site and have pushed forward the need for honesty and clear unobstructed transparency in our county. This, back in the old days when the GOB's were in charge would never see the light of day. Now the people will know what these band of misfits have cost us the taxpayers. Transparency, honesty, justice and the will of the people, in charge of the actions of those we place as servants in their positions, anything less is not enough. And remember like in the days of the press protecting JFK and other presidents, the local rags for many many years protected those in office in this county. Those days are done, this is not the times of Walter Cronkite friends and neighbors these are the days of Anops and Anonymous. A whole different ballgame.
LOL 48 well said, and what is the "new" stuff, did anyone see any difference except you can't find and read the articles anymore and the color scheme stinks, and they have reverted back to the same comment and posting system they had before. The same 4 front page advertisers, well we use that term with a grain of salt as the free stuff such as for Lake County Live, which is really just the old GOB's like Rhondes and Hoppy and their 'band of misfits to which LCN is giving them free front page ads. He he ya a whole different paper that's for sure.
I believe Mr. Bauman was on the jail watch at the time of the Hatfield incident, he was quoted as saying "When the hourly bed-check was done we found him hanging in his cell. That was not at the time a bright comment, as it secured the idea and the truth of the matter that they did not put him on any suicide watch despite their knowledge of his condition. It should also be remembered that when Mitchell was meeting with the mental health people in Clearlake shortly before this incident, he was recorded as saying I don't want no crazies in my jail!! So that tells you what his thoughts and ideas were about those that may have mental problems, he did not give a crap and that belief permeated then entire department.
Hey Lovelace what is the latest on the Dinius trial any updates last was another hearing scheduled sometime this month I believe? If anyone knows what the current date is for the next hearing please post it.
Speaking of the jail, haven't heard of any more whining from the correctional officers, looks like they have decided to follow the leader and stop the bitching. After all the goo gaa over uniforms, and carrying a guy like the deputies and this and that, and the hours and the whining and all the hysteria, they have finally realized they better get with the program or get another job. Sometimes you have to take your beating before you get the picture of reality.

Approximately 100 survivors and family members of victims of the attacks were in the court audience.
The man accused of killing dozens of people -- many of them teenagers -- in dual terror attacks in Norway gave what was described as a fascist salute in court today before saying he deserves a "medal of honor" for the 2011 massacre.

5:46 The COs are happy now because they are being led by somebody who treats them well, the new under-sheriff. Also the 12 hour shifts have been reinstated, although you never hear much about that because Frank would have to admit he was wrong on that one.
Oh ya the undersheriff, the one that Rivero picked, the one that he put into place, ya that undersheriff, the one who all you GOB's hammered when you heard he was coming here. Yup your right that was an excellent choice by Rivero, you got to admit shows good leadership.
Bauman is a piece of crap. He couldn't do a thing right and was moved around all the time because he couldn't do the job. Ask anyone who worked under him what he was best known for and you will her "NOTHING".
Hmmmmmm a reaction to cover his ass, and with the excellent execution of putting the under-sheriff in place and making that decision, what ass covering was taking place? The jail was a mess, and out of control, he placed a man in place who with his guidance is bringing the jail in to compliance with how it should be run and as you know the issues with that structure have now ebbed away. Clarity has been restored and the proper sense of direction and purpose. You see that is leadership, and by the way not a single word or issue from the GOB's in well over a month concerning the sheriff, all the crap thrown against the wall and not a single piece of GOB excrement has stuck to that wall of ignorance. Not the best record, one would say. The train left the station friend, and you missed it. Sorry for ya, but that is the reality.
126 was removed as they cannot follow the basic rules of the Blog. They can choose to try again, but we doubt they will as usual for the GOB's.
Is it becoming clear to everyone else as it is to me that the old boys are getting desperate at this point. They cannot seem to post any intellectual comments, they no longer have their beloved LCN, they cry out with childish posts, and, it seems they have no where else to turn. It is, if one looks at it clearly the natural way that a group such as these malcontents should end their last days. They once held sway in the county and now they seem only to be a desperate small band of left overs even now abandoned by their own, who have now realized that their days are done, and they too must get on the train and join the victors in inevitable process of change and transparency.
Hey 529 do us all a favor and follow these instructions:
1. Grab hold of the back of your neck, you know that red part of your body.
2. Pull hard with both hands, in your case real hard.
3. Lift your head and remove it from the deep deep hole in the sand.
4. Look around,(requires opening your eyes)
5. And see reality, it will be bright and scary at first, but just hang in there and keep actually looking.
Now isn't that better. You, if you accomplish the above 5 steps, will have begun the process of removing the plague of ignorance of which you are terribly afflicted.

Uh oh, now LCN has a blurb saying they are having people reporting log in problems. This is of course a reach, in that they really haven't had anyone report that they are just stabbing in the dark, trying to figure out why everyone is gone. Hint: You blew it when you tried to force people to use the government tracking agency called Facebook, that along with the log in and sign up process causes people not to trust you, along with your agenda driven so called journalism has spelled the end. Now you will hang on some time to come, but overall you have been marginalized to the point of no longer being a viable source of information. Sorry about that it is just the way it is, when you fail to understand the street and its people.
Now, pro-legalization backers have yet another point in their favor: According to a new study from the University of Colorado-Denver, the 16 states that have legalized medical marijuana have seen an average 9 percent drop in traffic deaths since their medical marijuana laws took effect. The study analyzed data from 1990 through 2009.

Lake County Board of Supi closes another medical marijuana dispensary, this time in Middletown. The Board voted 4-1 to permanently close H2C Collective and others-opposed by Denise Rushing.
Rob Brown told Denise Rushing that it was disrespectful of her to say the board wasn’t doing its job.
Be careful Denise, you don't want to be disrespectful to the all mighty wizard Rob Brown. He doesn't like it when he is told he is not doing his job. First the FPPC and now you. Next the citizens might recognize that Rob is not doing his job. Vote the bum out! (great job Denise)

As all of you may have heard, the BOS had a brew ha ha yesterday. Rushing is the only one who has gotten the picture and stood up to the ignorant rest of the BOS.NKudo's to her for standing up against these lame duck members. Brown as always was nothing but disrespectful towards her. What she see's and understands is that they cannot stop this process of the citizens, and they were told that "we the people smashed there attempt to go against the peoples wishes. It has always been thought she was the sharpest of the BOS and this has shown that. Brown is an indignant idiot, and let's hope he pays the price at election time. Comstock as always follows Browns lead and both Farrington and Smith follow on long like dogs on a leash.
No matter how one looks at it the grow and dispensary initiatives will go before the voters. That cannot be changed. So despite reality these knuckle draggers continue to go against the citizens. Ignorance is bliss and the price to pay for that is going to be huge.

Hey GOB's the substation is approved and a done deal, remember the substation you all said wasn't going to happen. It's a done deal. You lose again. Change change change get on the train train train. LOL
Thing is, we don't cotton to cowardice. John Jensen, 2/7/12
We don't like cowards so we encourage you to say what you like and take credit for it. John Jenson 2/8/12
What will he say tomorrow? What does he call himself when he posts anonymous on this site.

I have always been amused the name I'm called when all I say is that no one in this government should lie,or cover the lies up no less try to put someone in jail for one of their own. I have no hope you in government will understand for you have been corrupted by leader that would put government before the citizen ,power corrupts.
Farrington follows the rest of the GOB's on the BOS on the MJ issue because he knows that pot/MJ/medical MJ is easier to get that booze. Everyone has a trusted friend or a friend of a friend who will kick down! Hell, I know people who never have to pay for MJ and other people who grow enough that they will flat give you some if you ask them...
Anyone who thinks the MJ isn't helping Lake County keep it's head above water has their head in the sand. Look around, ask local contractors and the local hardware stores exzactly who are the people remodeling, doing home improvements and spending money. Ask away, but no one is talking! Why? Because they have found out just where their bread is buttered! How many tarps did Mendo Mill & K-ville Lumber sell with this years early rain? How much Foxfarm soil? How many pairs of fiskars @ 14 bucks a piece? Ha ha ha, ha ha!
You GOB-anti-pot people just keep on keepin your heads shoved up each others rears and the rest of us will just keep on laughing at you,,,,all the way to the bank!

Hey LL when or is that beaty eye whimp getting hired back on at LCSO? I bet he is afraid to come back where he knifed all his fellow officers in the back with the lies about racaial profiling
This is an overview of the proceedings at the BOS meeting directly from H2C owners of the dispensary, Rob Brown gets his ass kicked hard in this response, and well said.
Hello all this is H2C writing our own comment because too many facts were left out.
First fact: Rhonda Chadwick is not the operator nor does she have anything to do with the Collective and its operation.
Second: County presents their case, when they finish H2C then gets to start to defend their position.
Unfortunately Mr Brown, now sitting the chair seat, refused to let me present our case. He repeatedly interrupted me.
We asked the BOS council please explain the rules of this proceeding. She replied that the County presents their case, then the Defendant (H2C) gets to present their case uninterrupted. Then the county can rebut the claims.
Supervisor Brown refused to hear this and continued to act like KING HENRY VIII.
He was completely disrespectful to me and what I stand for. He made it very clear by trying to vote on my case BEFORE I GOT A CHANCE TO DEFEND MYSELF. He said he heard enough without hearing anything.
Thank god the motion didn't get on the table. I thought that the way I was treated was like a second class citizen.
H2C requested that Supervisor Brown and Farrington recuse themselves as they have shown nothing but bias against MMJ industry and its patients.
Their own county council said that if they cant make a decision without bias then they should recuse themselves.
Brown should have recuse himself because of his bad experience with growing on his property and all the grief that came his way from that which was published in all the lake county newspapers. His dislike towards the MMJ industry shows all over his red rosy face, the second he has to answer any opposition to his position. That's not Democracy that's a DICTATORSHIP.
H2C was promised from the beginning by Mr. Comstock that he had no intention of closing down our store. He said that repeatedly yet he brought the motion to the floor to close our store.
All voters! This should send a message that we must vote out the Dictators and replace them with REAL PEOPLE, Supervisors such as Rushing who truly care about the citizens not their own agenda.
All MMJ patients and growers please come out and vote this year as all three of the Supervisors that voted all the clubs out and tried to take your growing rights away are up for reelection.
There are real people that are running against them all. So please stand up and be heard. This will be the only way you and I can send the message that all of us count not just the 1%.
The proceeding that took place yesterday on our abatement process was not fair.
This was a retaliation from the BOS because their ordinance was rescinded, plain and simple. They said if the ordinance was overturned that they would close us down. That is premeditation at its wost.
Supervisor Brown blamed Supervisor Rushing, he must of been kidding. She was the only one who did their job and stood up and made it heard that they should of done more to get a equal medium for ALL. Supervisor Rushing should be chair of the BOS, then their would be a real person at the wheel.
Well, Thank you Supervisor Rushing your a Scholar and a Lady.

Great thanks H2C, and Rob Brown, has got to go, this guy is a liar, a cheat, can't be trusted and continues to show himself as a total ass. He has to go, the county has grown past the antics and stupidity of this idiot. It sounds like more and more publicly elected people are voicing their concerns over this guy. He is making the county look like a joke, what a shame he is a supervisor, he needs to get the hell out of office and out of this county.
The BOS, Coel , and others are becoming a threat to all citizens in this county. They are literally attacking us, and threating the very fabric of who we are as people of this county. Rob Brown has little mans syndrome, he is a narcissist man along the lines of Mitchell, his day is coming, and we all must focus ourselves to continue to attack him at every step and every opportunity. He very may be going off the deep end in the same denial way that Mitchell did. The pressure needs to be kept on this deceitful and dishonest man. The county can do much better then this, we need new and progressive representation in this county, and we need it now.
2:14, Let us hope Lande would come back soon so he can ferret out the likes of you. I saw Rod Mitchell give KKKlint hugs in public more than once. I read the names of several officers and wives of officers and CO's that signed up on KKKlints hate websites. At least one Supervisor, Rob Brown, signed up too.
Racism is alive in Lake County, but it is not so well, it is wounded. I am a white man who is at peace with my brothers of other colors.
Together we will drive a stake in the heart of racism. Be ready, we are coming.

Me thinks that Rob and friends may have interest in a larger than a 5000 plant operation either planed or in operation.
5000 plants that the sheriff says is equal to 5 lbs per plant at 2000 per pound is?
Divided 5 ways is?
Well lets just say it might be enough money to sway the minds of those directly involved in the decision making policy's that would guarantee that their investment stays in the high market range.

Great post 744, the days of past racial ignorance has taken a big hit over the past couple of years, the old racist regime is gone, I heard to today that the believes the majority of the bad apples are no longer with the department, and have left, those days of "screen tests" and racial inequities are dying off.
Did anyone notice that the RB did not post a single thing on the BOS meeting in todays paper? Funny, Jeremey has been covering that for quite a few months now. It may be that the article will go in tomorrow, if not, it would appear that the someone from corporate is controlling the local folks at the Bee. Gary is this true? It could be understood that an article may not get in the print addition, due to the start up times of the presses, but it most assuredly could have gotten on the Internet version.
Pop quiz. How many private investigators does a county of 60,000 need? The answer, as many as Donny is willing to keep in business by not having his own DA's work hard enough on the taxpayers dime. How many former public officials have their hand or their money in the local LC collective of private investigators? I could name several. Something is not right on this situation.
Anyone wanna bet money there are more elected officials that want Brown out of office then want to keep him? Add to that he has been named in not one but two total FPPC filings, and chalked up a 50,000 dollar tax lien, had 5000 plants growing on his property. Has some very sketchy situations going on with his son, more will come out on that later.Sells beer at high school functions to people that drive there, and wants the employees to help him, yet disparages MJ. This little list of Brown issues can be expanded big time, so not to take up to much room will leave it at that, feel free to add to the list. Bottom line, this guy has got to go, he is one of the last remaining representations of the old GOB system in power, the citizens are calling BS on his guy.

h2c whining....Want a hankie? Your operation is illegal. You should be glad you got to last this long. Go to a different county and spread your poison.
937 you could not be further from the truth in my opinion. It has nothing to do with the event you describe, not even close. Did not Liz intimate in her article something about the Hells Angels, in a slight of hand manner? Might want to think about that. Remember by the way, the Brown act can be violated in a number of different ways. No matter how information on this Rivero notification got out, the fact is the meeting was held behind closed doors and the fact of the exact subject line should as well. If there is just some mention of the sheriff and litigation on a memo, but the totality of the connection to Donny and the reason for Rivero's notification to the board and their subsequent need to hold a closed door meeting is not there then overly detailed information leaked. No matter how you shake it out, even taking Liz out of the picture the details at this point that were revealed violated certain acts.
Why did Liz have this in the article?
Anderson and Rivero, who had the same campaign manager – Olga Martin Steele – and ran closely allied campaigns in 2010, have been locked in disputes since early in 2011, not long after taking office.
One of their main issues of contention concerned the sheriff’s response on May 14, 2011, to reports that a large number of Hells Angels were en route to the county because of the appearance of the rival Vagos gang in Lakeport.
No Hells Angels appeared, but efforts to block entry to the county and concerns about potential violations of civil rights put Rivero at the center of a District Attorney’s Office investigation.

Never encountered the concept of 'context?'
Its a thing good news writers do to help the slow people who otherwise won't understand things. People like you for instance.

Good Question does seem to have any real connection unless Liz is trying to drop a hint. I heard that a lot of items printed in the article were also not accurate. Or what if none of this should have been out to the public and a number of people violated some rights? Interesting.
This sounds like there may have been a lot of people that could have violated some things. Rivero said he had not seen any of it and she should talk to Anita. Something isn't adding up.
What's adding up is that the Sheriff wants to sue the county but is lying about it. Ask him on Tuesday when he trys to justify the expense he is asking for.
Wait, have a lot of people violated the sheriff's rights? This could be much more then just worrying about LCN, set them aside, what if Anita and others should not have discussed any details? This could get sticky. Maybe none of them should have given any comments to Liz, more questions then answers at this point.
Is "context" what Frank was attempting to provide when he snuck into Judge Blum's chambers and left what Judge Blum described in open court as an "improper ex parte communication" on Judge Blum's desk?
Oh you mean on the Navarro case that is know going to trial? That letter, that the judge never read that was given to his assistance who is the only one who reads it or even tells the judge what it is about. But the people raised the issue and followed Rivero's lead and it did go to trial and the judge did agree with the peoples concerns.
Would this be something the AG would have to investigate in total, if some aspects of the Brown act or some aspects of the sheriffs rights have been violated? Or is there some other connected aspect of this based on whatever it is Donny is trying to throw at Rivero?
Lot's of questions.
Lot's of questions.
"improper ex parte communication" on Judge Blum's desk?
another of the Big 5 Blunders in Franks file...just saying
another of the Big 5 Blunders in Franks file...just saying
I haven't seen a single thing happen to the sheriff on any of your grasping for straws, so you want to tell us what has happened to the sheriff, we must all be missing something.
regardless of the Judge not reading the letter, the fact that a person who should know better would not do what was done, again Frank has no knowledge of law rules and protocol, he thinks his position has no boundaries, well he stepped over many lines of illegal actions and now The DA will hold him accountable as anyone should be, stop blaming LCN or Elizabeth she is not the dummy of the county Frank owns that trophy
Ya but you guys having been screaming the sky is falling on the sheriff for a year, and I still can say there has not been a single ramification on the sheriff, nothing despite the constant screaming and yelling. Now you are doing it again, saying the DA will hold him accountable. Are you sure what is going to happen? Is this just another reach? I don't mind if you guys can here it is and here is the penalty he paid, but you can't. Not trying to be a smart as* but it is a fact.
It seems as though there is never a shortage of armchair experts ever so ready to throw around Brown Act threats which never come to anything. One would be hard pressed to find an example of a Brown Act violation which was ever successfully prosecuted.
1022 In the Mitchell days a judge would automatically assume that a deputy should receive special protections as in Perdock.
New sheriffs note to judge, No special treatment.
Nuff Said.

Frank is just trying to sue the county for something, anything at all will do. Everybody knows it so everybody is extremely careful around him to avoid giving him an excuse. He's got nothing and will get nothing on that angle but he does have a gift coming.
We agree with you on that one post 1031, we think they are few and far between. Don't know that it should mean the public doesn't try and doesn't ask questions. That really is all this is and has been about asking questions being edgy and not politically correct. However you are correct the odds of this coming to fruition via the Brown act is slim, but we still need to ask the questions.
Seems to me to much information got out, doesn't matter how but that it did, doesn't matter if it was through LCN or that the whole process was flawed. Seems since it was agreed to be ok to have a closed door meeting to protect the party(s) in accordance with the Brown act or other privacy issues then somehow way to much information concerning the details of this was made public.
What don't some people get about good public speculation and question asking, and why does it get you so upset? Did you read what Lovelace wrote.
"We are to early into looking at this to say it is fact or that it is a100% done deal, thus why we are posting this information and letting the public know what we are investigating."

jj is still upset because he couldn't keep his promise to Rod so the next best thing is to trash the sheriff.
Go back and reread the editorial that jj wrote in the campaign and tell me that jj's coverage of the sheriff and comments on the Blog and his own paper aren't in lockstep.

The editorial is still up on the Rivero Hate site along with Don's letter to Rivero. Why is that jj?
