Nation's Top Jockeys And Trainers Set For Santa Anita Autumn Meet Opener On Sept. 26 America’s top jockeys and trainers are set to compete beginning Friday, Sept. 26, as Santa Anita’s 23-day Autumn Meet, which will be highlighted by the two-day Breeders’ Cup World Championships on Oct. 31 & Nov. 1, will get
underway. “We’ve got an incredible overall jockey colony and our horse inventory looks good as well,” said Rick Hammerle, Santa Anita Vice President of Racing. “Our trainer roster is second to none and we’re
optimistic we’re going to be able to provide our fans topclass racing and good betting opportunities.” Rafael Bejarano, who will be seeking his 20th leading rider title in Southern California, heads one of the nation’s deepest jockey colonies that also includes the likes of Hall of Famer Mike Smith, who is the all-time winningest jockey in Breeders’ Cup history and who has to be considered one of the greatest big-money jocks in the history of the sport. Top trainers such as Bob Baffert, Jerry Hollendorfer, Peter Miller, John Sadler and Doug O’Neill figure to once again vie for leading trainer Please see page 4

Tuesday, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), a senior Member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, released the following statement after the President ordered strikes against ISIL and the Khorasan group in Syria last night: “Last night’s airstrikes against ISIL targets in Syria represent a significant expansion of the Administration’s efforts to degrade and ultimately defeat this new terrorist ‘state.’ The participation of Arab forces is especially important, not only to put an Arab face on the American led coalition, but also to cement their involvement in the long-term effort required to defeat ISIL. “The attack on the Khorasan group was also significant. On the Intelligence Committee we have long been aware of, and concerned with, the threat posed by this amalgam of core Al Qaeda from Afghanistan

Governor Brown Signs Historic Groundwater Legislation Putting California communities on a path to become more resilient to water shortages, Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr.last week signed historic legislation to strengthen local management and monitoring of groundwater basins most critical to the state’s water needs. “We have to learn to manage wisely water, energy, land and our investments,” said Governor Brown. “That’s why this is important.” The three bills signed by the Governor today – AB 1739 by Assemblymember Roger Dickinson (D-Sacramento) and Senate Bills 1168 and 1319 by Senator Fran Pavley
(D-Agoura Hills) – create a framework for sustainable, local groundwater management for the first time in California history. The legislation allows local agencies to tailor sustainable groundwater plans to

JohnMattos Returns As Official Artist of the 2014 Breeders' Cup World Championships The Breeders’ Cup has announced that multi-award winning illustrator John Mattos has been named the official artist for the 2014 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The Mattos collection features two brilliant art deco images celebrating the 31st running of the event at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif., on October 31-November 1. The Breeders’ Cup is Thoroughbred racing’s most prestigious international event, consisting of 13 races and purses and awards totaling $26 million. It is also an annual gathering of stars from Hollywood entertainment, business, sports and celebrities from all walks of life, and held at one of the world’s most picturesque horse racing venues. The Breeders’ Cup will be televised live by the NBC Sports Group, with the $5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic shown live and in primetime on NBC. In his second year as the Official Artist of the Breeders’ Cup World Championships, Mattos has evoked his retro-inspired style to capture the Art Deco setting of Santa Anita Park. The first image, which is the 2014 official poster, consists of a monumental Thoroughbred and rider seemingly etched into the San Gabriel Mountains.
Below the towering symbol, an elegant crowd watches as the best thoroughbreds in the world race toward a place in prestigious racing history. (see link attached) The second image depicts a flamboyant female wearing a fascinator showcasing a montage of the racetrack,
and is complimented by her trendy aviator sunglasses which reflect the day’s racing action (see link attached). Both images will appear on the Friday and Saturday official racetrack programs and on all event tickets to Santa Anita Park.
Some Californians May Be Owed Refunds on Auto Purchases Board of Equalization, (BOE) Chairman Jerome E. Horton announces that the Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) may have charged you too much use tax on your purchase of a car from a private citizen. When purchasing a car from a private party you are required to register the vehicle with the DMV, and pay the use tax. The use tax a buyer should generally pay is the applicable sales tax rate for the area where the vehicle will be registered (usually the new owner’s home or business address). The Department of Motor Vehicles, working with the BOE, has discovered that some taxpayers may have been charged the wrong rate in computing their tax liability on the purchase of a vehicle from a private party. For example, if you
bought a used car for $10,000 and the car will be registered to your home address in the City of Inglewood, you would owe $950 in tax (based upon Inglewood’s sales and use tax rate of 9.5 percent). If your home was nearby in the unincorporated area of Los Angeles County, which is also in the 90045 zip code, you would owe $900 based on that area’s rate of 9 percent. The Board of Equalization, working with the DMV, is in the process of implementing safeguards to protect California taxpayers from being overcharged in the future. However, Chairman Horton encourages taxpayers to report any concerns to the Board of Equalization. “Taxpayers have the right to pay the correct amount of taxes under the law, and correcting this
mechanical or human error preserves that right,” said Chairman Horton. To verify that you were charged the correct amount of tax, and to file a claim for refund if the wrong amount was collected by the DMV, please visit www.boe. ca.gov. Your request for a refund must be made in writing, and must state the grounds or specific reason for the over-payment. You may use the form BOE101. More information and instructions are available on the BOE’s website in Publication 117. If you were overcharged tax by a registered vehicle dealer, you should request a refund from that dealer. For further assistance, consumers may contact the BOE’s Customer Service Center at 1-800-400-7115.

DOG HAUS TO OPEN RESTAURANT IN WEST COVINA OCTOBER 4 Acclaimed Gourmet Hot Dog, Sausage and Burger Concept to Welcome Community to the Haus with Free Hot Dog on Opening Day
Dog Haus, the celebrated Pasadena-based concept known for its gourmet hot dogs, sausages, burgers, and one-of-a-kind creations, will be opening a franchise location in West Covina, CA on Saturday October 4, 2014. Located at 2678 East Garvey Avenue South, the restaurant from franchisees Owen Yan and Andrew Ni will be the fifth location of the emerging brand, which was originally founded by Partners André Vener, Hagop Giragossian and Quasim Riaz in 2010 to recapture the nostalgic childhood experience of eating a hot dog. To commemorate its arrival in the area, Yan and Ni will be inviting locals to swing by the Haus for a free Haus Dog on opening day. “We are thrilled to open the newest Dog Haus franchise in West Covina and to share this unique and increasingly-popular brand with our thriving community,” said Yan. “Conveniently located in the recently renovated McIntyre Square, Dog Haus West Covina is sure to quickly become the new hot spot in town for gourmet hot dogs, sausages and burgers, all served in a casual, fun and welcoming atmosphere.” As part of that introduction to the community, guests will be able to swing by from 11:00am – 10:00pm on October 4 to enjoy a free Haus Dog from a selection of Dog Haus’ clas-
sic all-beef skinless dog offerings, all served up on grilled King’s Hawaiian Rolls. Options will include

To pair with their dogs, diners can order fare from Dog Haus’ full menu, which is rounded out with gourmet sausages, burgers, corndogs, and sides -- each prepared with the highest
mozzarella; while the Das Brat Haus Sausage features a bratwurst with caramelized onions, sauerkraut, white American cheese, and whole grain mustard aioli. Burgers run the gamut from the trademarked The Freiburger® with white American cheese, a fried egg, haus slaw, fries and mayo; to the Holy Aioli with white American cheese, caramelized onions, smoked bacon, and garlic aioli.

emphasis on local breweries, including Hangar 24, Golden Road Brewing and ¬Strand Brewing going by the pint. Canned beers like Fat Tire, Pabst Blue Ribbon and Modelo will be served up in koozies -- a nod to backyard summer BBQs. The fast-casual concept, designed to elevate the nostalgic experience of eating that quintessential hot dog or burger, carries its ethos over to the aesthetic of the space. After ordering at the counter, diners can gather around communalstyle tables outfitted with bar stools or at cozier tables that span the perimeter of the 1800 square-foot restaurant. Striking red and black accents enliven both interior and exterior, bringing a modern sensibility to the classic concept. “It’s awesome to witness the building anticipation and overwhelming response we receive each time a new franchise opens,” said Dog Haus Partner Quasim Riaz. “We are proud that Dog Haus has found a home in West Covina and look forward to becoming a staple in the community.” The new restaurant, located at 2678 East Garvey Avenue South, West Covina, CA, 91791, will be open for lunch and dinner daily from 11:00am-10:00pm.

and Pakistan, the premier bomb-makers of AQAP, and abundant foreign recruits who can easily travel abroad to carry out attacks against Europe and United States. The Khorasan group and AQAP continue to be the most proximate threat to our nation. “This significant escalation of the military effort makes it all the more imperative for Congress to take up a
new authorization to use force. The rationale given by the Administration, that its actions against ISIL can be justified by an authorization passed by Congress in the days after 9/11, is increasingly untenable, and Congress must not abdicate its responsibility. Congress should never have recessed with a war underway – we should take up this issue the moment we return to session.”

Friends In Deed: Hope for Pasadena’s homeless since 1894 Continued from page 1
makes her not give up her life. On the streets, she started to write poems, which help her to “keep in touch with humanity.” Jackie Knowles, founding coordinator of The Women’s Room, proudly told me that it has existed for seven years, and started off with eight women. Juliana is one of 25-35 ladies who are homeless or at-risk, who come to the Women’s Room to either get help, take one of the many classes and services offered from a weekly writing class, to “Ask a Nurse,” to take computer lessons, or just to socialize and connect with others who face a similar destiny. The women here feel comfortable because they are not being judged and are free to come and go whenever they please with signing in as the only required paperwork. Theresa is one of the lucky women who found housing, but still returns to The Women’s Room because she loves the people and the activities. She also participates in the writing group. Jackie was inspired to found The Women’s Room after reading a ten-year strat-
egy to end homelessness and finding out that out of the 1,200 homeless in the city, one-third were women. However, for homeless women without a verifiable drug or mental problem, there were no services offered. Therefore, she decided that homeless women with or without these problems needed a place where they could feel whole, lift each other up, and get treated with dignity and respect, and so Jackie created the Women’s Room after the model of the women’s shelter in Downtown Los
Angeles. Friends In Deed works closely together with the Pasadena Housing Department and other organizations to end homelessness and to prevent it. They offer financial and employment counseling. The Food Pantry of Friends In Deed serves an estimated 4,000 people monthly, and is the only one that lets people shop according to their needs rather than getting a pre-prepared bag full of groceries they might not like or need. When 40 years ago a Pasadena homeless man froze to death,
Friends In Deed established The Bad Weather shelter for the weeks between Thanksgiving and March 15, which served nearly 1,000 homeless men, women and children in the 2012-2013 season. During holidays, Friends in Deed plans special events, or, just recently, had a Back To School backpack drive, thanks to which 180 kids received backpacks with school supplies. The organization prides itself on minimal staff and bureaucracy, and on a wide range of volunteers. Without them, the organization simply wouldn’t exist. Jackie
and Tara Hull, The Women’s Room’s program director, and many other employees agree on that. Local supermarkets, parents, students, retired professionals, and others all help by donating their time, food, clothes, and money to people in need. If you would like to contribute as well, please visit http://www.ecpac.net/ how_youCan_hep.html and find out how you can help. Hosted by Fritz Coleman, stand-up comic and KNBC weatherman, the 120th anniversary of Friends in Deed will take place on November 5, from 6:00 p.m. to
9:00 p.m., at Castle Green, 99 S. Raymond Ave., Pasadena. Tickets are $120. Valet parking will be available. For the event, Friends in Deed is planning “A Walk Through History” paired with food, music and auctions, honor contributors, but also three former homeless women, who are now, thanks to Friends In Deed, self-sustaining. The success story of Evelyn provides strong proof of how Friends In Deed helps the less fortunate: seven years ago, Evelyn told me, she lost her administrative assistant job because her company went bankrupt. Without any family close, she landed on the streets. With finding The Women’s Room, Evelyn also found new hope, and a job. “If it wasn’t for this place, I wouldn’t know what my life would have been,” Evelyn said. Even though she isn’t homeless anymore, she still comes back to The Women’s Room and gives back to others, saying that there she has family fellowship and everyone looking out for each other.

convenient for the patients we serve,” said Harlan Levine, M.D., chief executive of City of Hope Medical Foundation. “These practices also allow seamless access to the specialized and advanced services of a top ranked cancer center when a more complex treatment is needed. City of Hope’s commitment to establish a unique alignment of high quality community physicians with its cancer center also meets the needs of health plans, employers and the government, which are seeking clinical integration of quality and affordable care in the community with the expertise of a NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center.” The nine new physicians will bring an in-depth understanding of coordinated community oncology care and share City of Hope’s philosophy of compassionate, patient-centered treatment. Current patients of Wilshire Oncology Medical Group physicians should not see any disrup-
tion in their care during the transition. “Expanding our clinical services beyond the San Gabriel Valley is imperative to City of Hope and its mission,” said Vijay Trisal, M.D., medical director of community practices for the City of Hope Medical Foundation. “Our community practice sites are set up to expand community access to City of Hope’s high-quality care and to offer patients convenient care by City of Hope physicians.” The Glendora, Pomona, Rancho Cucamonga, West Covina and Corona sites are the most recent additions to City of Hope’s growing list of community practices, all of which extend the institution’s reach by bringing premier care to patients in their own communities. City of Hope recently opened a state-ofthe-art clinic in Antelope Valley and has practices in Palm Springs, Pasadena, South Pasadena, Arcadia, Mission Hills and Santa Clarita.

Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Launch a Body Worn Camera Pilot Program at Four Patrol Stations Continued from page 1
test and evaluation of a Body Worn Camera System. After completing extensive research and a request for information procurement process, four manufacturers were selected to participate in the pilot program, which was formally initiated on Monday, September 1, 2014. The six month pilot program will evaluate the feasibility of utilizing a Body Worn Camera System for Sheriff’s Department personnel to record interactions with citizens, the specifications for the procurement of a Body Worn Camera System device, file management software, cloud-based storage solution and an evaluation of future Department policy. The pilot program will also identify the strengths and weaknesses associated with the use of a Body Worn Camera System in a law enforcement capacity. The evaluation will be performed at four Sheriff’s patrol stations which include: Lancaster Station, Temple Station, Century Station, and Carson Station. The
Deputies who participate in this pilot program are voluntary. Each Deputy will be provided training on the use of the device, maintenance, uploading video files, retrieving video files for viewing and evidence and protocols for utilization. Deputies will provide weekly evaluations to the Department project
LA County CHP Hit-and-Run suspect arrested in Boone County, Illinois after a routine traffic stop. On July 13, 2014, at approximately 11:53 p.m., CHP West Valley Officers responded to a traffic collision with major injuries, which occurred westbound on the US101 (Ventura Freeway), east of Sepulveda Blvd. Upon arrival, officers determined a BMW collided with a Honda CRV, at a high rate of speed. Officers learned the driver of BMW fled the scene after the collision. Officers were able to identify the suspect as, Chauncey Alexander Hollis, a resident of LA County. Officers forwarded this information to West Valley Investigator, M. Geller, who along with investigators from the Southern Division Investigative Services Unit, and the United States Marshalls Fugitive Task Force, filed a warrant for the arrest of Mr. Hollis, for violating California
Vehicle Code section, 20001 (a) Hit-and-Run collision, resulting in injury to a person. On September 16, 2014, deputies from the Boone County Sheriff’s Department conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle, which was being driven by Mr. Hollis. Deputies discovered that Mr. Hollis was wanted by the California Highway Patrol. As a result, Mr. Hollis was arrested and is awaiting extradition to Los Angeles, to face charges for the Hit-and-Run traffic collision.
manager about their experiences and opinions. A total of 96 Body Worn Camera System devices will be issued to Department personnel. The devices will also be tested in several side-byside comparison tests by the Department’s Training Bureau. At the end of the test phase, which concludes
on March 1, 2015, the Sheriff’s Department will prepare an assessment report and recommendation for potential future procurement and deployment of a Body Worn Camera System by Sheriff’s Department personnel. “The Body Worn Camera system is the next step in the modern evolution of law enforcement technology. Just as radios and computers have become common place in law enforcement, these camera systems will be utilized by law enforcement as a matter of routine. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is systematically researching and testing these systems as well as developing policies and a process to manage the thousands of hours of video data that will be collected each year that will be needed in future law enforcement efforts,” said Project Director Chief Bob Denham.

Governor Brown Signs Historic Groundwater Legislation Continued from page 1
state that does not manage its groundwater,” said Senator Pavley. “The cost of doing nothing is the biggest economic gamble. Thousands of homes and small farms cannot keep pace with the race to drill deeper and deeper wells. The bills take a balanced approach – they protect property rights and incentivize local control.” “Ensuring a sustainable supply of groundwater is a critical element of addressing the water challenges facing California,” said Assemblymember Dickinson. “Over drafting our groundwater leads to subsidence and contamination; consequences we cannot afford. With these new laws in effect, California will take important steps to ensure we are protecting our valuable water supply for years to come. “I applaud the leadership of Governor Brown, Senator Pavley and Assemblymember Dickinson on the passage of this landmark legislation to better manage our precious groundwater supplies,” said Senate President pro Tem-elect Kevin de León. “There’s still a lot of hard work left to do, but these bills coupled with the $7.5 billion water bond proposal we adopted in August will help
protect our residents’, farmers’ and industry’s access to affordable and reliable water.” “Today’s bill signing is a historic step for our state. It is so important that we take these steps to preserve and protect one of our most valuable resources, groundwater,” said California State Board of Food and Agriculture President Craig McNamara. “Not very many years from now, I believe that we will look back on today as a turning point in securing reliable, long-term water supplies for California’s vital agricultural economy,” said Association of California Water Agencies Executive Director Tim Quinn. “This legislation marks a new beginning for enduring sustainable management of California’s rivers and groundwater systems,” said The Nature Conservancy External Affairs Director Jay Ziegler. “At Driscoll’s, we are highly dependent on groundwater. The future of agriculture in areas along the central coast hinges on sustainable management of this precious resource,” said Driscoll’s CEO Miles Reiter.
Charges dismissed on former SCVCOG Executive Nick Conway Nicholas Conway, the former Executive Director of the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG), and the SGVCOG’s Governing Board have resolved their legal disputes and reached a settlement agreement and a mutually agreed-upon letter of apology to Mr. Conway. The agreement and letter reflect what Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Norman Shapiro explicitly found in dismissing the charges against Mr. Conway: “Everything Mr. Conway did was open. It was approved. I don’t see a crime here.” Attorney Kenneth P. White, who worked with former California Attorney General John Van de Kamp in
Mr. Conway’s defense, remarked: “As we have said from the start of this case, Mr. Conway was wrongfully being blamed for the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments’ chosen structure and business model. In 1994, after conducting a national search for a private firm, the COG selected Conway and his firm to staff and manage the joint powers agency. They did that rather than employ public employees in order to save money. During the last 17 years, Conway’s performance was outstanding, and he provided leadership to the COG in securing more than $3 billion in federal, state and local funds. Those funds now support a wide range of transportation, energy
and environment infrastructure projects and many health and human service programs provided to the Valley’s cities and businesses.” The charges against Mr. Conway were premised on activities he undertook in public meetings, on the record, with the advice and consent of the COG’s legal counsel and the COG’s 35-member Governing Board. Even the Governing Board members who later complained to the District Attorney’s Office about certain contracts voted at the time to approve those very contracts. Mr. Conway and his counsel believe that the meritless complaints to the District Attorney’s Office were in retalia-
tion for Mr. Conway expressing concerns about financial reporting, cost overruns, and delays associated with the Alameda Corridor Construction Authority’s grade crossing projects located in Industry, Walnut and Diamond Bar areas. As Superior court Judge Norm Shapiro stated in dismissing the charges against Mr. Conway in July 2013, “the DA may have gotten involved with people in city government who maybe had an ax to grind with Mr. Conway.” Mr. Conway said he was pleased that “this chapter was finally settled and that all of facts surrounding this unwarranted case were made known to the public.”

Governor Brown Signs Legislation to Bolster State's Film and Television Industry, Put Californians to Work Taking action to keep cameras rolling in California, Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. Thursday joined legislative leaders and dozens of film and television workers in Hollywood to sign bipartisan legislation – AB 1839 by Assemblymembers Mike Gatto (D-Los Angeles) and Raul J. Bocanegra (D-Los Angeles) – that expands, extends and improves the state’s Film and Television Tax Credit Program. “Today, we remind the world that the Golden State is the home of the silver screen,” said Governor Brown. “This bill helps thousands of Californians – from stage hands and set designers to electricians and delivery drivers.” AB 1839 will increase the state’s film and television tax credit to $330 million a year for five years beginning with fiscal year 2015-16 and replace the current flawed and arbitrary lottery system with a more competitive and accountable sys-
tem that ranks applicants according to net new jobs created and overall positive economic impacts for the entire state. The legislation received broad support from both republican and democratic lawmakers. “This legislation will keep the cameras rolling in California and strengthen our position as the entertainment Capital of the world. We’re bringing Californians who are working away from their families in Georgia and Louisiana back to California where they belong,” said Senate President pro Tem-elect Kevin de León. “It’s the ‘behind the scenes’ workers who bring the imagination and creativity to life that keep this industry moving, and the businesses that serve the production sites and teams – their jobs were on the line. We need to keep these jobs in California and that’s why I was proud to coauthor AB 1839. It allows
us to compete with other states and nations who are clamoring for that big movie business,” said Senate Republican Leader Bob Huff “I am pleased that Governor Brown today signed this important legislation that will make California more competitive with other states and other countries for film and television production. More productions being filmed in California mean more jobs being created, more economic activity being generated and more tax revenue coming into the state. This bipartisan legislation is an example of what is possible when Republicans and Democrats work together to do what’s best for our state and our economy,” said Assembly Republican Leader Connie Conway. “Extending the Film Tax Credit keep cameras rolling in California, keeps costumers designing, craft services catering, and carpenters hammering. This is the
75th anniversary of what many consider to be Hollywood’s greatest year. Governor Brown signing this legislation to extend the film tax credit to keep production and jobs in California is the perfect anniversary present,” said Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins. “I’ve heard from so many people during my time in office, who have told me about their families being torn apart because of production fleeing the state, and how this program will give stability to families, certainty to small businesses, and help our communities thrive. I am grateful for all the help from those involved in this legislation, particularly my coauthor Assemblymember Bocanegra, Governor Brown, Speaker Atkins, Senate pro Tem Kevin de León, and all of the hardworking people who stood up for middle-class jobs,” said Assemblymember Gatto. “Today we’ve hit a home run for Califor-
nia’s signature industry – the film and television industry. This will help to stem the tide of runaway production and put tens of thousands of Californians back to work,”said Assemblymember Bocanegra. AB 1839 was also backed by a broad coalition of leaders representing labor and the film and television industry. “The MPAA and the studios we represent appreciate the Governor’s leadership in growing California’s motion picture and television incentive to bring good middle class jobs to the state, and we thank him for his recognition of the importance of film and TV production to the vitality of California’s economy,” said Motion Picture Association of America Chairman and CEO Chris Dodd. “With the Governor’s signature on AB 1839 today, we ensure that film and television production will continue to be a wellspring of middle-
class jobs that fuel our economy and boost our communities. California’s unions are proud to stand with the Governor in support of our state’s iconic film and television industry and the hundreds of thousands of good California jobs it sustains,” said California Labor Federation Executive Secretary-Treasurer Art Pulaski. “Over the last 20 years, our California has lost much of its film and television production work, and with it the solid technical and creative jobs that our industry provides. The legislation is a catalyst to grow those positions for the thousands of current and future crew members who want to work here and for the myriad small businesses that supply and support our industry every day,” said Warner Bros. Pictures President of Worldwide Physical Production Steve Papazian. For full text of the bill, visit: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov.

Six Current and Former Los Angeles Sheriff's Deputies Sentenced to Federal Prison for Obstructing Federal Civil Rights Investigation The six defendants received prison terms of up to 41 months from a federal judge who said they all lacked “courage to do what is right” and then failed to show “even the slightest remorse.” United States District Judge Percy Anderson issued the sentences after a federal jury determined that the defendants, including two lieutenants, attempted to influence witnesses, threatened an FBI agent with arrest and concealed an FBI informant who should have been turned over to federal authorities. All six of the defendants were convicted of participating in a broad conspiracy to obstruct justice, a plot that began in the summer of 2011 after they learned that a jail inmate was an FBI informant and was acting as a cooperator in a federal investigation into corruption and civil rights violations at the jail. “Blind obedience to a corrupt culture has serious consequences,” Judge Anderson told the defendants before ordering each of them to begin prison sentences in the coming months. Acting United States Attorney Stephanie Yonekura stated: “In their corrupt attempt to shield the Sheriff’s Department from scrutiny, these deputies brought scandal and shame to themselves and their department. These deputies decided to impede a federal investigation, and in doing so they threw away their careers and their freedom. These law enforcement officers have now been held accountable for their unlawful actions.” The defendants who were sentenced today are: • Gregory Thompson, 54, a now-retired lieutenant who oversaw LASD’s Operation Safe Jails Program, who was ordered to serve 37 months in prison and to pay a $7,500 fine; • Lieutenant Ste-
phen Leavins, 52, who was assigned to the LASD’s Internal Criminal Investigations Bureau, who received a 41-month prison sentence; • Gerard Smith, 42, a deputy who was assigned to the Operation Safe Jails Program, who was ordered to serve 21 months in prison; • Mickey Manzo, 34, a deputy who was assigned to the Operation Safe Jails Program, who received a 24-month sentence; • Scott Craig, 50, a sergeant who was assigned to the Internal Criminal Investigations Bureau, who was sentenced to 33 months; and • Maricela Long, 46, a sergeant who assigned to the Internal Criminal Investigations Bureau, who received a sentence of two years in federal prison. from conducting the federal investigation. The sergeants falsely told the special agent, and later her supervisor, that they were obtaining a warrant for her arrest. Speaking of the confrontation at the special agent’s home, Judge Anderson said it was one of the most striking incidents related to the obstruction conspiracy, particularly because it was videotaped. “They did this to scare and intimidate the FBI…and they intended to obstruct justice,” the judge said. In addition to the conspiracy count, all six deputies were convicted of obstruction of justice offenses. Craig and Long were also found guilty of making false statements to the FBI agent and to her supervisor about seeking a warrant for her arrest. Thompson, Craig and Leavins are no longer with the Sheriff’s Department. Smith is on approved leave. Manzo and Long, according to the Sheriff’s Department, were relieved of duty without pay in December 2013.
Schiff and 29 Members Urge Department of Justice to Fund BodyWorn Cameras for Local Police Departments On Friday, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and 29 Members sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder urging the Department of Justice to help fund local police departments’ purchase of small body-worn cameras in order to increase transparency, decrease tensions between police and community members, and create a record of events. Schiff, who is a member of the Commerce, Justice and Science Appropriations Subcommittee and former Assistant U.S. Attorney, stated: “As the investigation into the death of Michael Brown illustrates, the circumstances of an officer-involved shooting can arouse the strongest passions in a community and breed an atmosphere of profound distrust. Having a video record of events not only deters the use of excessive force, but it also helps dispute or demonstrate claims of police brutality – in either case it improves community confidence in a just result. Studies done in localities that have implemented body-worn cameras have shown a positive impact by demonstrating a commitment to transparency and accountability and helping to deescalate potentially tense interactions. “Given the Department of Justice’s crucial role in helping state and local law enforcement adopt best practices, I believe it’s time to expand our support to include assistance to law enforcement agencies that would like to adopt bodyworn camera technology for their police officers. The Department of Justice can use existing funding streams, or work with Congress to create a new pool of resources for local governments to help implement body-worn cameras for police officers throughout the country.” From the letter: “Police departments around the country have begun adopting small body-worn cameras for police officers on patrol. These cameras provide a visual and audio record of interactions with the public, so that in the event of a confrontation or police-involved shooting, such as the one that occurred in Ferguson, there is an inalterable record of the
events. There are also indications that the presence of body cameras has a civilizing effect on both police officers and the public, resulting in lower incidences of excessive force complaints and deescalating tense situations before they become violent. Perhaps most importantly, cameras can instill greater trust in police departments on the part of the public they are sworn to protect. In communities with frayed police-community relations, cameras demonstrate a commitment on the part of the local police department to transparency and accountability, while protecting officers from false or frivolous complaints. For all these reasons, the adoption of body cameras has been well received in the jurisdictions that have begun to use them, both by the public and the officers wearing the cameras.” Schiff was joined by 29 Members, including Rep. Bass, Rep. Cardenas, Rep. Lacy Clay, Rep. Cohen, Rep. Deutch, Rep. DeFazio, Rep. Duckworth, Rep. Edwards, Rep. Green, Rep. Gutierrez, Rep. Lujan Grisham, Rep. Honda, Rep. Huffman, Rep. Bernice Johnson, Rep. Kelly, Rep. Jackson Lee, Rep. Lowenthal, Rep. Negrete McLeod, Rep. McNerney, Rep. McCollum, Rep. Moore, Rep. Pallone, Rep. Pocan, Rep. Schakowsky, Rep. Slaughter, Rep. Speier, Rep. Tonko, Rep. Van Hollen, and Rep. Waxman. The full letter is below:
Dear Attorney General Holder: We urge you to make available federal assistance for state and local law enforcement agencies to purchase body-worn cameras for police officers. The evidence from early adopters is highly promising, and body-worn cameras have garnered support from police chiefs, rank and file officers, community organizations, and civil rights advocates. We believe that a dedicated federal grant program would be a worthy addition to the support the Department of Justice has historically provided to state and local law enforcement agencies. We appreciate the crucial role of the Department of
Justice (DOJ) in supporting and guiding the activities of local law enforcement. In Ferguson, Missouri, following the shooting of Michael Brown, the Community Relations Service and the Office of Community Oriented Policing have provided invaluable guidance to state and local authorities, as they do for communities around the country. We believe the federal government has an important role to play in supporting state and local agencies in improving policecommunity relations. Police departments around the country have begun adopting small bodyworn cameras for police officers on patrol. These cameras provide a visual and audio record of interactions with the public, so that in the event of a confrontation or police-involved shooting, such as the one that occurred in Ferguson, there is an inalterable record of the events. There are also indications that the presence of body cameras has a civilizing effect on both police officers and the public, resulting in lower incidences of excessive force complaints and deescalating tense situations before they become violent. Perhaps most importantly, cameras can instill greater trust in police departments on the part of the public they are sworn to protect. In communities with frayed police-community relations, cameras demonstrate a commitment on the part of the local police department to transparency and accountability, while protecting officers from false or frivolous complaints. For all these reasons, the adoption of body cameras has been well received in the jurisdictions that have begun to use them, both by the public and the officers wearing the cameras. Though more study is needed, early returns on the benefits of cameras show real promise in improving police interactions with the public. A study conducted by the Rialto, California police department from 2012 to 2013 showed the potential of cameras. With half of the police department wearing cameras recording each interaction with the public, the department experienced an
88 percent reduction in complaints against officers. Additionally, the study found that shifts without cameras experienced twice as many use of force incidents as shifts using the cameras. Other studies conducted in Mesa, Arizona and in the United Kingdom have also yielded promising results. A major barrier to adoption of cameras for many departments is budgetary concerns, both for the purchase of the cameras as well as the technical infrastructure needed to maintain them and store recorded footage. A variety of Department of Justice programs provide equipment and financial support to local law enforcement agencies. We believe it would be appropriate to set aside a portion of federal assistance to state and local law enforcement to support state and local law enforcement agencies that choose to adopt body cameras for their officers. In doing so, the Department could also support rigorous study on the effects of camera adoption by police agencies as well help to develop and disseminate best practices for their use. These recommendations are in line with those suggested by a 2014 report by the Office of Justice Programs Diagnostic Center which recommended additional research into the effects of police worn body cameras. We urge you to explore the extent to which existing federal funding streams for local law enforcement can be used to acquire body cameras and to consider dedicating funding for this purpose. Should the Department require additional authorization or Congressional support, we are prepared to work with you through the upcoming budgetary and appropriations process to ensure proper support for such a proposal. We ask that you provide a response regarding the Department’s views on the adoption of body cameras by police officers, as well as an update on any plans to support their greater deployment nationwide. Thank you for your service and leadership on this and other important law enforcement issues.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-730-2727 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan. com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-613618AL . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.
