The ⁦@carmelpinecone⁩ is doing better journalism than the @mcweekly, the Weekly failed to connect the dots between alleged sleep rapist ret. ⁦@MCoSheriff⁩ deputy Nat DiMaggio and Dave Bernahl - his close friend and boss with Pebble Beach F/W. That's #CanneryRow's
2/

protégée Dave Bernahl (not to be confused with corrupt Sheriff Steve Bernal). Bernahl and DiMaggio were part of a whisper campaign against Sheriff Scott Miller - gossiping that Miller was pinching butts at 1833 a restaurant controlled by Bernahl.

It was all bullshit, but ...

Elections everywhere are a hot mess and the hope is truth, however slim, reaches the voter. In small and insular communities (where many of us exist) truth can be more elusive than DC, San Francisco, Chicago, New York City and a few others.

Newspapers have been destroyed.
4/

Reporters have been trimmed to dangerous levels, we have only a few handfuls doing meaningful journalism for a country of 330 million people.

It's a dangerous time. If you want to engage in politics the best advice I can give os engage, especially in your own community. 🆘

When I told @Calkins_Royal that the then managing editor of the @mcweekly has a truthfulness problem he not only agreed but told me "she is really pissed that you told me about the Mike Hackett appellate story, so watch out". I told Calkins I didn't care. Calkins asked "I thought
2/

you were friends" and I reminded him that she was untrustworthy in my opinion and despite casually communicating it was all business. MoCo corruption is a puzzle and Duan is a piece of the puzzle.

Calkins covered for himself by saying to Duan I didn't give him the Hackett
3/

cocaine conviction story, but I did - because it was newsworthy and relevant to a serious problem in Monterey County. The @FBI has not only been investigating corruption but, I was told, they are looking into collusion between news outlets. Specifically @ksbw & @mcweekly.

No update from the @mcweekly in their garbage article trying to dirty up a competitor in journalism. A @PacificGrove council woman (whose mother has been a Nader Agha worker) went all weirdo, similar to @maryrduan the Weekly's former editor has with me and this blog, after being
2/ criticized by Sheriff Scott Miller's brother, Dan, who is the editor of a PG Weekly.

The elected official took out a restraining order against Miller for his journalism - Judge Julie Culver saw through the bullshit and troubling legal assault and ruled against Jenny McAdams
3/

McAdams will now have to pay Miller's legal fees as a result of her loss - but what about Dan Miller's damage to his reputation?

The Weekly failed to balance and fairly treat Miller in their coverage much as they have unfairly treated this blog, siding.

Fascist liberals?

.@ksbw sleazy former GM. The guy is buddy-buddy with all these insiders and is neighbors with Mike Kanalakis - exactly - KSBW was garbage to Sheriff Scott Miller when he was Sheriff and perhaps the public will learn more as time moves on. Some @CaliforniaRodeo insiders told me
2/

that @ksbw is struggling and viewership is down along with ad rates.

Listen to what Kimbley Craig is saying here, Monterey County. She is saying she only wants to win a County seat by appealing only to getting out their voters and not the community at large or communicating

with the community. This may be a district election, (which the rigged up people love regardless of party affiliation) @kimbleycraig, with her locked Twitter account, wants to pump over $300,000 into literally a handful of MoCo residents.

Let's be clear about what is in our District Attorney's hands and we can all wonder why @JeanninePacioni has not reached out to me personally, knowing what I've accomplished (and her office blew) with low level scumbags like Joey Banuelos et al.

Mike Richards "paramour"

purchases a house owned by Dave Drew with Dave Drew acting as the bank in 2013.

Mike Richards paramour (and her ex husband) sell the house in Salinas for over $100,000 profit.

Mike Richards was running for Sheriff when this occurred (@TinaForSheriff).
3/

Mike Richards paramour was living in a house in Spreckels and did not move into the house, at 48 Harvest St in Salinas.

During this entire period Richards and the woman were in a relationship.

Crickets from local law enforcement.

That's a great way to launder money to a

Meet Gonzalo Fernandez @supervisoraskew. Now @VoicesofBay reporter @Calkins_Royal asked me to look into this scumbag - then he started getting what he described as death threats. Prior to he said fired and prosecuted (but rehired) cmdr. Joey Banuelos created a report re/ 👇 and
2/

that the report was created only after Calkins asked for a copy, MCSO claimed there was none, Calkins said "ask Banuelos about it" and suddenly a report appeared.

So @MCoSheriff are acting like cops from Tijuana now? On the take and corrupt?

Calkins also said this dude

is "very scary" and has "Cartel" connections.

Would you are @SupervisorLopez, or @AdamsSupervisor like to elaborate?

On a separate note, Calkins said Mike Hackett, the cocaine trafficker you are proposing to give a gift of public funds to, knew about the bribes being paid

🧵 "Soxie" Silacci. It's not a coincidence that he ended up buying Bobby Franscioni's house when he went to prison for guns (Bobby was a narco). Nor is it a coincidence that the property he and fam own at S Main and Winham houses Mike Bitar, Kaz Ajir enterprises @JeanninePacioni
2/

It's not a coincidence that Soxie is forever in the DEA NADDIS database or that his partner "the chemist" was murdered by Soxie's house in the hills of Santa Cruz. (unsolved) @JeanninePacioni
3/

It's not a coincidence that Soxie and his Monterey "Mafia" friends were headed down to Latin America when Sal Palma's son was thrown in a Latin America prison (they got him out) or that Silacci was stopped at the Monterey Airport with a sawed off shotgun in his luggage, then
