"Kerik had affairs with not only his publisher, but also with a Department of Corrections employee. A day earlier, the News had run hard-hitting Kerik coverage, much of it discussing the undisclosed gifts from friends." villagevoice.com/2004/12/13/tha…
For reference Kerik was a mediocre tough guy NYPD street cop who suddenly sailed ahead in the dept. when someone picked him out, politically.
and his consultant Plasha Will) spent up to and over $750,000 installing as sheriff in the nastiest campaign in the @MCoSheriff history.
It was coordinated, it had a purpose and it was successful.
Both Kerik and Bernal undermine the integrity of our top law enforcement

institutions.
As did former @SalinasPD chief @Kelly_McMillin who was promoted up (politically) by then Mayor now State Senator @CASenCaballero - because Kelly took care of things.
"The state Fair Political Practices Commission this month agreed to open investigations into two complaints filed by Schneider. One accuses the Monterey County Counsel’s Office of improper partisanship. We’ll get to that one in a bit."
"Over the past year, his research has revealed an apparent pattern of campaign law violations throughout Monterey County and an unwillingness by local authorities to take action"
A @MCoSheriff Sgt. Mike Richards asks newly elected Sheriff Mike Kanalakis for permission to fraternize with a convicted drug trafficker. #Sheriff Kanalakis gave it to him.

A group of #corrupt local officials attached letters to the court during a "Certificate of Rehabilitation" effort which is the first step in a #Pardon process.
It was scandalous and partly caused Mike Kanalakis' loss to Scott Miller in 2010.
Yup. Royal Calkins is correct here. All the crap the local media dumped on Christian Schneider is because he was getting "home-town'd". Schneider is the consultant who is driving many of the #corruption probes, unlike anything I've seen before, in #MontereyCounty.

Dan Miller is former Sheriff Scott Miller's brother. He is right about one thing, the Bernal - Miller campaign was the dirtiest campaign in MoCo in my memory. Outrageously so.
Brandon Gesicki and Plasha Will were the two moving heaven and earth to get a deputy elected.
3/ The Gesicki / Will combo is especially odd because Brandon Gesicki typically only works for Republicans.
Plasha Will, @RepJimmyPanetta's consultant will work with anyone who pays her.
The @mcweekly loves to jab Gesicki while leaving Plasha Will in a protective bubble.
Newsom just told Black people what he thinks of @SenKamalaHarris legacy.
This is exactly how Black people are frosted out of the process. The powerful do it with a smile on their face, and they wonder why African (Americans) brought here 400 years ago in chains are upset?

Every crooked politicians up and down the State of California got on their high horse and told @GavinNewsom what should happen, OR ELSE. And he did it.
Guys like @SupervisorAlejo, who is @AGBecerra buddy, a guy I cannot get to open an investigation on Alejo for his bribe
