Fun Fact: When SPD's Jeff Munoz was dating a tenant of mine, Julie Nix (CASP) Jeff told me @DavidDr34643165 had a bogus burglary of his house and the cops were told that Dave had a lot of cash stolen.
2/
Officer Dodd (a deceased former Salinas Cop and Army Ranger) didn't believe Drew, didn't believe he had a bunch of cash laying around his house - so Dave takes Dodd to his bathroom and goes under the sink and pulled out a wad of more 💰 💵 to show him how much cash he stores.
3/
Dodd put all that information in the 459 report.
Jeff Munoz told me Dave is a scumbag and he remembered him from when he was a kid and worked as a waiter at the Brass Rail, a bar / restaurant in Oldtown #Salinas which was at the center of a cocaine bust that was huge and
4/
where the same informant on that major cocaine bust implicated Ted Balestreri and Burt Cutino as major players of the cocaine ring along with several other public officials alleged to receive bribes from the ring.
Jeff Munoz told me this after Sheriff Miller was elected.
5/
Munoz was aware because my tenant Julia Nix was aware that I was putting together a public corruption task force so we would have a Sheriff who actually went after corrupt officials with help from federal partners. Many partners were being aligned for this effort via
6/
Gregory Lee, an honest fmr. DEA cop who was so into what I was doing we would talk nearly nightly about the effort and where this was headed. (Lee had worked in Pakistan and with an informant who was helping federal officials locate Osama Bin Laden to arrest UBL).

Let's not kid ourselves, @FelixKSBW - we both know, and we both can prove that the City of Salinas City Attorney is acting as a defacto "board member" of the city council via his advice that is above their competency and while breaching duties to remain counsel for the entity.
And the same can be said for Les Girard, and prior to that Charles McKee, because of the manner in which they insert themselves in decision making while hiding behind attorney-client privilege, illegally, attempting to claim public record memorandums they issue our elected are
advices. Their advice, when they breach the (Entity Client >< Attorney ) bubble and give advise illegally, thereby making the work product a public record.
The records will show that Les Girard knew of the Conflict @AdamsSupervisor had by employing Det. Archie Warren's sister
Here is an @latimes article that was Public Relations driven. Mike Kanalakis was sheriff (and a corrupt one at that) and he was in the election fight of his life. Or as Kano saw it, life and death, because Kano LOVED glad-handing and freebies.
I had just put Scott Miller into
the 2010 @MCoSheriff's race and Kano, as Sheriff Kanalakis was called, was punishing everyone. Kano was afraid of my truths and what I knew about his past conduct so he largely kept his Miller attacks to political ads making Miller look bizarre. (notice I do that here on Twitter
now as an Ode to Brandon "Thailand" Gesicki's style of politicking. (The one thing Joe Livernois over at @VoicesofBay got wrong is, its Gesicki and Plasha Fielding Will who don't want their names mentioned ever - and Livernois and others cater to them, I don't give a shit)
@B1968Big@TajhaLanier@stevemcshane@kimbleycraig@reym12 Jim Pia is scared. He told me so. We met at the sign installation with all the politicos wanted to take credit. Pretty sure this was long before Kelly McMillin was sued twice for sexual thuggery. We walked back to city hall together and I told him, it’s bad and I told him I had
@B1968Big@TajhaLanier@stevemcshane@kimbleycraig@reym12 gone to the FBI in 2021 after a host of people who were credible in the past, came to me to ask for help in laying out some details. One of them being award winning journalist Royal Calkins.
Jim just said “oh man, I’m a short timer” - meaning he is retiring in a few years. He
@B1968Big@TajhaLanier@stevemcshane@kimbleycraig@reym12 doesn’t want to hear that level of bad news because he is so close to being done. Gunter was corrupt. There is no 1/4 corrupt or 1/2 corrupt. Gunter was provably corrupt. And I liked Joe. We always got along but in his last two years he grew more secretive - then dies on me.
It’s shocking the lack of ethics that exists within @SalinasPD.
When I say this I’m talking about leadership and that begins and ends with a Chief.
Kim Craig, @CityofSalinas’ right wing Mayor is outted by her neighbor (quite innocently) as residing in “her” home with
Bobby Richardson, who fits the textbook definition of common law partner under California and federal law on Willow Street in South Salinas.
Craig was so alarmed that this truth was revealed she sent me a threatening letter on City letterhead to no longer speak about her South
Salinas residence. The panic of Craig was inspired by the fact that Craig had just run for Supervisor against Glenn Church and Regina Gage and lost spectacularly BUT Craig used her North Salinas condo to qualify as her domicile for legal purposes even though she was living on
