Jose Velasquez is an embarrassment. He berated every judge on the bench (not on their corruption but on their "racism") with the exception of mg Aunt, Kay Kingsley - who was trying to help Jose not fuck up further - so he didn't include her in the "racist" judges bs
Way way back the Judge and his buddy Ricky Cabrera were commissioning an illegal dumping things near the Silacci Ranch near Old Stage Rd - at night. A @MCoSheriff deputy who did the right thing through all the name dropping and threats - cited

the dumping crew.
That deputy was later fired by Mike Kanalakis under pressure to fry this cop by the two politicos tied to the case.
The case against the Cabrera/Velasquez crew was dropped by Dean Flippo - "in the interest of justice".
Funny how that happens.

In April of 2022 @SheriffBernal of the corrupt @MCoSheriff department was raking in money from people like Ted Balestreri, Burt Cutino, Bill Uretsky, Dave Gill (Gill Onion), David Armanasco PR, Tanimura & Antle, Cannery Row, Pacific Valley Bank (sold Mary Duan a repoed hous).

By October 2022 Bernal is working on a "retirement video" as the @FBI closes in on public corruption in Monterey County (I'm pushing hard for this in the background on all fronts).
Our media hasn't had one credible report on what changed?
They didn't cover it right because of Moonbeam (@JerryBrownGov) because they don't want to damage Moonbeam's reputation as a "Progressive California Leader" / even though Dave Drew committed a crime after my aunt, Kay Kingsley, signed his certificate of rehab in 2010.
Guys like @Kelly_McMillin - who was Chief of @SalinasPD by 2012 had a history of covering for politically sensitive criminals. (like @CASenCaballero) so covering for Dave Drew seemed like good business for Kelly (a total fraud).
@CyFlys LAPD has a history of having very highly trained units which are capable of very serious investigations - unlike those that take place in Monterey County.
LAPD's special public corruption unit were the coppers that picked up the Communist Part in Los Angeles making a lot of π
calls to Fred Farr's law office in #Salinas. Fred Farr, Sam Farr's dad.
LAPD's special until - with the FBI picked up a subject on a wiretap a couple decades ago of organized crime figures in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Visalia, Bakersfield and Salinas talking about the need
for a card room IN #SALINAS, for organized crime type purposes.
What did Dennis Donohue make happen in 2007?
A card room in Salinas after he arranged for the @CityofSalinas to purchase a bunch of marginal dirt off East Market Street to be purchased for $900,000 from a pair
Chief Deputy Kevin Oakley helps make these mysteries happen. Oakley considers Hicks a second father and mentor. Oakley is also the guy who rushed Dave Drew's CCW permit through so the former cocaine trafficker who would once roll around with a loaded AK-47 can legally carry a
@veggie64_leslie He is. He was dating a 911 dispatcher and not telling his wife he was fired by the Sheriff and criminally charged. I was talking with a @MontereyHerald reporter about it casually (@grlreporter) and she ends up calling the local DA who was sitting on it. Now they are worried about
@veggie64_leslie@MontereyHerald@grlreporter how it looks because the Herald is going to write about it and, back in the day, of their is a local reporter I love more than @Calkins_Royal, it's Julie Reynolds. She is the most honest reporter I have ever met. The most honest.
So Berk Brannon, a Deputy DA, runs out to the
@veggie64_leslie@MontereyHerald@grlreporter@Calkins_Royal .@MCoSheriff department and pulls the file on Banuelos. Brannon goes back to his office and ADDS a felony to the complaint and tells Sheriff Miller that there is so much proof that two felonies took place he added another.
Then the case sits. Miller is defeated by this crook
It was stories like this that inspired me to run Scott Miller for Sheriff against a sleazy Mike Kanalakis and the entire political apparatus of the County of Monterey.
2/ "Judge Tom Wills agreed with Public Defender Jim Egar that 21-year-old Elisha McCoy deserved to be cleared because of the mistake by the Monterey County Sheriffβs Office."
3/ "Chief Assistant District Attorney Terry Spitz argued against the dismissal, suggesting the judge could take McCoyβs treatment into consideration at sentencing if he decided to plead guilty or was convicted at trial."
