Yesterday I took a short trip to Catalina Island to visit with @AvalonLASD. The scenery all around was beautiful, but more importantly I was able to get a first-hand understanding of how we are ensuring public safety for the residents & tourists on the island. #SheriffV ImageImageImageImage
A quick trip around Two Harbors, or "The Isthmus", afforded me the opportunity to see the area we protect and agencies we partner with on the island. #SheriffV ImageImageImageImage
Captain Hocking and deputies from @AvalonLASD provided a station tour and shared their experiences and efforts to continue building strong relationships with the community. #SheriffV ImageImageImageImage

I'm really glad that @STARZ #SpanishPrincess has brought #Catalina, Catherine of Aragon's Moorish attendant, into popular awareness, But in the service of this fascinating story, it has melded *two* different historical women.

The woman responsible for "secret services" in Catherine of Aragon's bedchamber, who was reported to be "well informed" of whether Catherine's marriage to Arthur #Tudor was consummated or not was #Catalina of Motril, an enslaved woman from Granada...
Catalina was in Catherine's service by 1501 at the latest, but may have been there earlier as there is a payment for an (unnamed) 'esclava' in the princess's household ten years before.
'Catalina' may not have been her original name...
