LA Councilman Curren Price’s arraignment in criminal case delayed 4th time By City News Service

rraignment was postponed again Friday for City Councilman Curren Price, who is now due in court Jan. 8 in connection with criminal charges of theft by embezzlement, perjury and conflict of interest for allegedly voting on projects involving developers tied to his wife’s consulting firm, then failing to report the connections. Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Craig Richman noted that he has not had a chance to review court filings involving the defense’s legal challenge that is expected to be heard involving the 10 charges against the councilman before the arraignment goes forward. Defense attorneys contend in a court filing that the five counts of grand theft by embezzlement against Price are “barred by the statute of limitations.” The defense also contends that the allegations in the complaint are “insufficient to allege a crime” involving the two conflict-of-interest charges, and that the facts stated in the complaint involving the three perjury charges “do not constitute a public offense.” The prosecution has countered that the defense’s challenge should be denied. Deputy District Attorney Casey Higgins wrote in his response that the defense’s challenge is “unsupported by the law and meritless.” He added that the prosecution is not barred by the statute of limitations because “the prosecution was initially commenced on June 13, 2023, which was within four years after the completion of the offenses” involving five of the challenged charges.

The case was filed against Price in June, with his arraignment being postponed at four court hearings since then. Price has maintained his innocence and is free on his own recognizance. Price — who turned 73 on Saturday — has represented since 2013 the 9th District, which includes most of South Los Angeles and Exposition Park. He previously served in the state Assembly and state Senate. The criminal complaint alleges that Price effectively embezzled money between 2013 and 2017 by having the city cover roughly $33,800 in medical premiums for Del Richardson, to whom he claimed to be married, although he was still married at the time to Lynn Suzette Price. After his initial court appearance in July, Price issued a statement saying, “We are looking forward to engaging with the DA in the coming weeks and we are grateful that the court has given us time to do so. I want to thank my constituents and the entire city of Los Angeles for the outpouring of support I have received and I look forward to continuing to do the people’s business.” Price’s statement went on to say, “As we said when the charges were brought, we believe that the charges filed by the DA’s office are completely unwarranted and that the facts will bear this out. I have always conducted myself, in and out of the public eye, with integrity and professionalism.” Price sent a letter that afternoon to Council President Paul Krekorian announcing his decision to step down as council presi-

bars, the prosecutor said outside court following a brief hearing in July. Price is the latest Los Angeles city official to fall into legal or political turmoil. Former council members Jose Huizar and Mitch Englander have both pleaded guilty to federal charges in recent years, while Councilman Mark Ridley-Thomas was convicted earlier this year of federal charges for trading votes during his time on the county Board of Supervisors in exchange for benefits provided by USC to his son. Former City Council President Nury Martinez resigned last year after being caught on tape in a racially charged conversation with two other council members and a county labor official, discussing the council’s redistricting process.

dent pro tem, and surrendering all of his committee assignments. “While I navigate through the judicial system to defend my name against unwarranted charges filed against me, the last thing I want to do is be a distraction to the people’s business,” Price wrote in the letter. Price returned Aug. 8 to City Hall for the first time since he had been charged, entering the council’s chambers with a businessas-usual approach and with little to no disruption from those in attendance. During the public comment period that day, a few members of the public openly criticized Price’s return, mostly saying he should not be voting at all. If convicted, Price could face a sentence ranging from probation to roughly eight to 10 years behind

VOL. 12,

field of 16 candidates has filed to succeed Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Burbank, the Los Angeles County RegistrarRecorder/County Clerk announced Thursday. The field in the predominantly Democratic 30th Congressional District consists of 12 Democrats, two Republicans, one Peace & Freedom Party candidate and one with no party preference. Democrats who filed by Thursday’s deadline include former Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer; state Sen. Anthony Portantino, D-La Cañada Flintridge; Assemblywoman Laura Friedman, D-Glendale; Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education member Nick Melvoin; West Hollywood Mayor Sepi Shyne; Dr. Jirair Ratevosian, a former State Department official; and actor Ben Savage. The district stretches from West Hollywood to Pasadena and Echo Park to the Angeles National Forest. Schiff has not made an endorsement. He is running for the U.S. Senate seat formerly held by the late Dianne Feinstein after being a member of the House since defeating then-Rep. Jim Rogan, R-Glendale, in 2000. The filing period concluded Dec. 8 for most county, state and federal offices in Los Angeles County on the March 5 primary election. However, under state law, the filing period was extended five days to Wednesday when an eligible incumbent does not file to run for re-election. The filing deadline was extended for two other Los Angeles County congressional races due to the retirements of Reps. Tony Cárdenas, D-Pacoima, and Grace Napolitano, D-Norwalk. Cárdenas, D-Pacoima, has endorsed Assemblywoman Luz Rivas, D-North Hollywood, in the race to succeed him in representing the 29th Congressional District in the Northeast San Fernando Valley. Community organizer Angélica María Dueñas, a Democrat who lost to Cárdenas, 56.6%-43.4% in 2020 and 58.5%-41.5% in 2022, is among the three other candidates who have filed, along with Republicans Benito “Benny” Bernal, a family and youth advocate, and María Margarita Carranza, who did not list an occupation. Napolitano has endorsed Sen. Bob Archuleta, D-Pico Rivera, in the race to succeed her in the predominantly Democratic 31st Congressional District in the San Gabriel Valley. Former Rep. Gil Cisneros, who from 2019-21 represented the then-39th District, which ran from Walnut in the north to Chino Hills in the east, Hacienda Heights in the west and Fullerton in the south, is among the five other Democrats to have filed. Sen. Susan Rubio, D-Baldwin Park, Mary Ann Lutz, a member of the Citrus Community College District Board of Trustees, workers’ rights advocate Greg Hafif and health care advocate and businessman Kurt Jose are the other Democrats who filed. Three Republicans filed -- clinical psychologist Pedro Antonio Casas; lawyer/entrepreneur/educator Daniel Jose Bocic Martinez; and government affairs administrator Elvira Moreno -- along with two candidates without a party preference, teacher Erskine Levi and commissioner Marie Manvel.

tarbucks could be forced to reopen six Southland locations that it closed last summer, with federal regulators alleging the stores were shuttered in an effort to suppress unionization efforts by employees. The National Labor Relations Board issued a complaint Wednesday questioning the closures of 23 Starbucks locations nationwide, noting that workers at more than a half-dozen of those stores had already voted to unionize with Starbucks Workers United. The NLRB called on Starbucks to reopen the locations, although the matter is expected to go before an administrative law judge sometime next year, The New York Times reported. Mari Cosgrove, a member of Starbucks Workers United, issued a statement calling the NLRB complaint “the latest confirmation of Starbucks’ determination to illegally oppose workers’ organizing. It adds to the litany of complaints detailed in the company’s own report released this morning. If Starbucks is sincere in its overtures in recent days to forge a different relationship with its partners, this is exactly the kind of illegal behavior it needs to stop.” A Starbucks representative told The New York Times, “Each year as a standard course of business, we evaluate the store portfolio” and typically open, close or alter stores. The company told the paper it opened hundreds of new stores last year and closed more than 100, of which about 3% were unionized. Workers at more than 350 corporate-run Starbucks locations nationally have voted to unionize. The closures of the six Southland stores included in the NLRB complaint were announced by the company last summer. At the time, Starbucks vice presidents Debbie Stroud and Denise Nelson wrote a letter to employees suggesting that the closures were the result of safety concerns at the locations being targeted. They wrote that issues facing the nation as a whole -- including “personal safety, racism, lack of access to healthcare, a growing mental health crisis, rising drug use and more” -- were impacting some of the coffee chain’s locations. “With stores in thousands of communities across the country, we know these challenges can, at times, play out within our stores too,” they wrote. “We read every incident report you file -- it’s a lot.” The Southland store locations referenced in the NLRB complaint are: -- Santa Monica Boulevard and Westmount Drive in West Hollywood; -- Hollywood Boulevard and Western Avenue; -- First and Los Angeles streets in downtown Los Angeles; -- Hollywood and Vine Street; -- Ocean Front Walk and Moss Avenue in Santa Monica; and -- Second and San Pedro streets downtown.

uesday, the Duarte City Council selected Vinh Truong, of District 2, to represent Duarte as mayor and Cesar A. Garcia, of District 6, as mayor pro tem. “General Colin Powell once said ‘Great leaders are almost always great simplifiers who can cut through argument, debate, and doubt to offer a solution everybody can understand.’ Everybody does deserve an opportunity, but when we sit here on this dias, that opportunity is for our constituents and our residents, not for us. I believe that is who I am and who I will continue to be.” said newly appointed Mayor Truong. “ Not only do I have all of Duarte to represent but I have to represent my kids and my wife at home.” Truong’s family migrated from Vietnam to the United States in the late 1970s and settled in Duarte in 1985. He has held a seat on the Duarte Economic Development Commission and served as a board member of the Santa Anita Family YMCA. In 2019, Truong was appointed to Duarte’s Financial Advisory Task Force, which allowed him to learn about the city’s financial condition. Garcia was appointed by the City Council to fill the District 6 vacancy in December 2021. Garcia was raised in the City of Duarte and his family has lived in Duarte for over 27 years. “To be able to sit here with the rest of my colleagues is truly a full circle moment for me. I always knew I would continue to serve my community but I never thought at this capacity,” said newly appointed Mayor Pro Tem Garcia. “The greatest lesson my family ever taught me was how to serve others. It feels really good to be serving this community because of my family’s history with Duarte. My grandparents bought their first home here, my parents met at Mike’s Food, and this is also where I met my wife. I am humbled and will continue to serve this community in any capacity.” A representative from the office of Senator Susan Rubio presented Councilmember Jody Schulz with certificates from Senator Rubio and Assemblywoman Blanca Rubio thanking her for her service as Duarte’s mayor. “This has been a tremendous honor and one of the most profound things I’ve done professionally,” said Councilmember Schulz. “The amount that I’ve learned about myself, others, government, the residents and the connections I’ve been able to make with the residents in the community is something I’ll cherish forever.”

Series: With Every Breath: Millions of Breathing Machines. One Dangerous Defect hilips Respironics received thousands of complaints about a dangerous defect in its breathing machines but kept them secret for years as stock prices soared. The devices, including the popular DreamStation for sleep apnea, went to children, the elderly and veterans before the global giant announced a massive recall. In 2021, after Philips Respironics sold millions of defective medical devices to those who struggle to breathe, the federal agency charged with protecting the health of the American public swept in. The Food and Drug Administration accused the global powerhouse of a succession of mistakes — casting aside test results and health risks — long after the company discovered an industrial foam embedded in its breathing machines could break down and send tiny particles and fumes into the lungs of patients. The FDA maintains that it acted as soon as it learned of the safety concerns in April 2021, just weeks before Philips launched one of the largest recalls of its kind. But a ProPublica and Pittsburgh Post-Gazette investigation found that in the years leading to the recall, the FDA repeatedly failed one of its most critical missions: alerting the public about devices that can inflict serious harm. Over the course of a decade, the agency missed a pattern of warnings from health care workers, patients and others that something was very wrong with the company’s popular sleep apnea devices and ventilators. From 2011 to 2021, Philips sent hundreds of complaints about the machines to the FDA, none of which resulted in alerts to doctors or patients. One report described a “black powder substance” inside a ventilator. Another noted foam that was “loose and tangled.” Scores specifically cited “contamination,” a red flag that experts say should have prompted an immediate inquiry because the machines send air directly into the noses and mouths of users, including infants and the elderly. It is unclear who, if anyone, read

the reports at the agency. After the recall, the FDA said that Philips had held back thousands of additional complaints, compromising a public warning system meant to inform consumers about life-threatening device failures. The FDA allowed the company to submit reports years later, so far without penalty. The FDA also permitted Philips to submit follow-up reports about those late complaints and update the dates that the company first received them. Then the agency concealed the original dates from the public, obscuring how long Philips had the warnings in hand before turning them over to the government. “That’s regulatory failure,” said Paul Pelletier, a former federal prosecutor who once led health care probes for the Justice Department. “There is no other way to say it. They dropped the ball.” ProPublica and the PostGazette spent more than a year investigating the Philips CPAP recall and the FDA’s response, analyzing 17 million reports in a complaint-tracking system open to the public that has long served as the backbone of the government’s oversight of medical devices. Created about three decades ago to detect repeated breakdowns, the system relies on companies whose profits are tied to the success of their products to quickly disclose problems and on the FDA to review the warnings, respond to them and hold device makers accountable when they delay reporting on time or fail to do so at all.

Federal law has long required manufacturers to disclose malfunctions, patient injuries and deaths within 30 days. But since 2010, Philips and other subsidiaries of Dutch parent Royal Philips have been late in submitting at least 60,000 complaints to the FDA — often by years, government records show. That includes more than 3,700 complaints about the recalled continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP, machines and ventilators, which a ProPublica and Post-Gazette story reported in September. The delays came as patients using the machines suffered from inexplicable respiratory infections, cancers, liver and kidney problems, and other illnesses — ailments that some medical experts fear are tied to the crumbling foam. Philips said early on the devices could send potentially “toxic and carcinogenic” material into the masks of patients, and the FDA classified the recall as the most serious, for defects capable of causing severe injury or death. Philips has a history of withholding complaints about medical devices it manufactures. The FDA’s own inspectors have previously cited the company for failing to turn over reports about safety breakdowns involving widely used CT scanners and defibrillators, public records show. Though the agency can pursue criminal charges for the delays, Philips has never faced such penalties. The lapses in enforcement have not been limited to Philips. In analyzing complaints

in the government’s tracking system, the news organizations found that other leading device makers have submitted hundreds of thousands of late reports to the FDA, in some cases waiting years before disclosing the information. Last year alone, 1 in 8 reports — more than 232,000 complaints — were submitted past the 30-day deadline, leaving regulators and the public without badly needed safety information. The FDA has sent warning letters to errant companies, but criminal charges are rare. The analysis also exposed the troubling use of the FDA directive instructing manufacturers to update the dates they became aware of potential defects when providing follow-up reports to the agency. A review of more than 100,000 complaints submitted since 2013 by two dozen large medical device makers showed that dates were changed on 1 in 5 reports, including those about flawed pacemakers, prosthetics, dialysis machines, and even screws and plates for bones. The news organizations found the discrepancies in the dates after obtaining the original reports from a private company that stores FDA data and comparing them to the reports as they appear in the agency’s public database. Medical experts and lawyers who rely on an accurate timeline of breakdowns say that permitting companies to submit late reports or change dates underSee Breathing machines Page 4

DECEMBER 18- DECEMBER 24, 2023

Breathing machines cuts the nation’s primary system for tracking the safety of medical devices. “I never imagined that this would be allowed,” said Madris Kinard, a former FDA analyst who was brought in to fix the system in 2010 and quit four years later. “It boggles the mind.” In a statement, the agency acknowledged that device makers are directed to replace original dates when updating reports in the system but said copies of earlier versions — not available in the public tracking system — are kept separately at the agency. The FDA did not respond to questions about why such a policy is in place but said that the tracking system is “just one source of information” about faulty medical devices. The agency defended its handling of the Philips recall, saying officials continue to “take steps to protect the health and safety of individuals using these devices.” The FDA said it received complaints about “general contamination issues” before the recall but that the debris could have been caused by external sources unrelated to degrading foam. Complaints that specifically described problems with the foam did not indicate that any patients had been harmed, the agency said. The FDA said all complaints are read but did not specify when it reviewed them. More than two years after the recall, Philips maintains that patient safety is a top priority and its machines are unlikely to cause “appreciable harm.” In a statement, the company said that it turned over the late complaints about its breathing machines to the FDA “out of an abundance of caution” and that it did not initially believe the complaints needed to be reported to the government. The company did not say why so many other complaints were reported late. It said the date changes were “consistent with regulatory guidelines.” Philips and Philips Respironics, the company said, “share the same objectives as the FDA.” Philips has disclosed that it is in discussions with the agency about a consent decree that could compel the company to make significant improvements. The FDA said it could not comment on potential enforcement action. Criticism of the agency’s oversight of the industry is not new. Over the years, the FDA has promised to overhaul the way it detects dangerous medical devices by relying more on real-time data in medical registries, electronic health records, insurance

claims and other sources. Under Jeff Shuren, a neurologist and attorney who has long led the FDA unit that regulates devices, the agency has directed millions of dollars to that effort. But to carry out the plan, the FDA in 2016 turned to an organization whose members include major device makers, such as Philips. The group paid for conferences, consultants, travel and pay for its executives, public records show. Years later, the promised system is still not in place. “It’s very disappointing that we continue to see delays in public notifications of serious device safety issues from the FDA,” said Dr. Rita Redberg, a cardiologist and expert on medical device safety. “We learn about [problems] after years and years and lots of preventable injuries and deaths. It’s such an avoidable disaster.” “I Was Just Horrified” In late 2012, hospitals in three U.S. cities scrambled to contain a disturbing pattern of infections among patients who had undergone exams for digestive illnesses. Eventually, investigators found the connection: a hollow, lighted tube made primarily by medical device maker Olympus that doctors snake down the throat and stomach to peer at the small intestine. By the time the maker of the duodenoscope launched a recall about three years later, the FDA had received dozens of reports about deaths, infections and injuries to the bowels and other organs, the ProPublica and the PostGazette analysis found. A Senate investigation in 2016 faulted the FDA and its “outmoded” complaint-tracking system for allowing the crisis to continue well after the devices started sickening patients with virulent infections. “Preventable tragedies,” a Senate report called the crisis after doctors around the world raced to treat patients. “A vivid example of the failure of FDA’s current system for tracking and monitoring the safety of medical devices on the market.” The congressional probe came six years after an inspector general’s report found the FDA had allowed warnings about medical devices to sit untouched for weeks or longer. At the time, about 20 people were assigned to read the complaints, which were kept in an electronic tracking system from the 1990s that couldn’t easily retrieve large numbers of related records or run comprehensive searches for key information. Reviewers often jotted down details

about the most alarming cases on Post-it notes and tacked them to their computers. “A huge number of reports weren’t read,” said Kinard, the former FDA analyst. “I was just horrified.” As the complaints languished, thousands more came in. The increase was driven partly by the sheer number of products on the market, the vast majority approved through an expedited review process created in the 1970s and championed for years by the industry. Last year, the FDA received 3 million reports about potentially defective devices — nearly 30 times more than in 2005, government records show. Nearly one-third described injuries and deaths. The FDA, which regulates more than 200,000 types of medical devices, did not say how many people are currently assigned to screening the reports. Amid concerns about the agency’s response time, the inspector general in 2009 faulted the FDA for not cracking down on companies that submitted late reports. In response, the agency pledged to offer “educational assistance” to manufacturers and conduct inspections for chronic offenders. But years later, device makers have continued to turn over complaints months or years after they came in, ProPublica and the PostGazette found. The FDA has significant power to address defective products or companies that ignore its rules by seeking criminal charges, fines and injunctions. Olympus pleaded guilty and agreed to pay tens of millions of dollars in 2018 for holding back reports that would have exposed the scale of the problem with its duodenoscopes. Late last year, the company was warned again by the FDA about failing to disclose complaints on time. Olympus acknowledged that it filed some complaints about duodenoscopes late but said the “disclosure failures” were not tied to patient injuries. The company said it is launching a new global complaints system to address the FDA’s more recent concerns. “Olympus takes the FDA findings and feedback very seriously,” Olympus said in a statement. Other companies have escaped penalty. Device maker Becton, Dickinson and Company did not submit 25,000 reports dating back to 2010 about its defective infusion pumps until the devices were recalled nine years later, government records show. The pumps, linked to scores of injuries

and at least one death, were malfunctioning while delivering medication and blood to critically ill patients. In a statement, the company said that it turned over the late reports after the FDA carried out an inspection in 2020 and that none of the cases involved patient injuries or deaths. The FDA said it took steps to provide information to the public and work with the company. Public health advocates and patients who have been harmed by defective devices, however, say the FDA too often fails to hold companies accountable. Tess Schulman, a paralegal in North Carolina, struggled with rashes that her doctor said were caused by Essure, a contraceptive device manufactured by Bayer that was blamed for lost pregnancies and deaths and later pulled from the market. “Why are we still allowing this to happen?” she asked. “Everybody thinks they are there to protect the public and they would not allow companies to sell something that wasn’t safe. We have a false sense of security.” In a statement, Bayer said it continues to “stand behind Essure’s safety.” Beyond the late filings, Olympus updated the dates on follow-up reports submitted to the FDA — more than 2,000 times in the case of its troubled duodenoscope, government records show. In each case, the change made it appear in the FDA’s tracking system as if the company had more recently received warnings when they had actually come in months or years earlier. Like Philips, the company said it was following instructions from the FDA. The directive has created vast inconsistencies in a system meant to inform and protect the public. ProPublica and the Post-Gazette found that other companies have often left the original dates intact, despite the FDA’s guidance. The agency said it has the capability to root out “systemic” reporting problems, but experts say they fear the date changes serve companies seeking to conceal potential violations of the law. “The risk is obvious,” said Michael Gonzalez, an Ohio lawyer who advises companies on health care compliance. “You don’t take what might be evidence in a case — and even your own culpability — and then alter or change it.” Kinard, the former FDA analyst, said she discovered about a year ago that the agency had created a pathway for manufacturers to make the changes. “It is an error on the FDA’s

side that is being exploited by manufacturers,” said Kinard, who added that she had no idea the changes were so extensive. “I want to know … who has been taking advantage?” An Unfolding Crisis The steady series of reports about contaminated CPAPs and ventilators streaming into the FDA in the years before the Philips recall should have come as no surprise to the government. The FDA had co-hosted a meeting with the nonprofit Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation about ventilator safety in 2014, raising alarms about how material packed in the devices could contaminate the air quality and send “substances into the patient airway and lungs.” When Philips finally announced a recall in June 2021, acknowledging the foam fitted in its machines could break down in heat and humidity, the FDA released a series of updates on its website but did not address the warning it had issued years earlier. The agency also said little about the reports it had been receiving from Philips all along. One of the first arrived in 2011, describing “black substance in the air path” of a ventilator, records show. Another the next year noted a “significant build up of dust and particulate.” Other reports were more detailed, describing problems with the foam itself. “Foam was found to be deteriorated,” read one report submitted to the FDA in 2020, about seven months before the recall. It remains unclear whether anyone at the FDA at the time looked at the mounting evidence that something was amiss. The agency has since said that Philips submitted 30 reports between 2011 and April 2021 that specifically described foam degradation. “We review and take seriously all reports of adverse events associated with medical devices and conduct additional evaluation and analysis when necessary,” the agency said. “We take prompt action and communicate publicly when appropriate.” There is no evidence, however, that the FDA took any action as a result of the foam complaints or the hundreds of reports that described contamination. While Philips forwarded some complaints to the government, ProPublica and the Post-Gazette reported that the company withheld thousands of others over a span of 11 years, including reports that described deaths among patients. It wasn’t the first time

Philips held back reports about malfunctioning medical devices. In 2011, the FDA cited a Philips subsidiary for failing to turn over complaints about faulty imaging scanners, including at least two that reported the machines had caught fire, government records show. That same year, the agency found the company was withholding reports about emergency defibrillators that failed to work when patients with heart problems needed them. A federal court eventually forced Philips to stop distributing defibrillators in the United States, but the order was lifted in 2020. All the while, Philips was quietly scrambling to deal with the flurry of complaints about its popular breathing machines. And people were getting sick. Eleven hundred miles away from Washington, in a trim white house in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Richard Ieyoub rarely thought about the company behind the CPAP machine he had used for years. The former attorney general of Louisiana, who helped lead a groundbreaking lawsuit against U.S. tobacco companies that ended in a massive settlement in 1998, was serving out a term as the state’s top oil and gas regulator. He was also recovering from a rare form of mouth cancer; doctors had to remove a part of his jaw and then rebuild it during a 17-hour surgery to remove a tumor in 2017. The father of seven spent time in recovery at Jesuit retreats and at a family lake house, sitting by a fire pit and regaling his grandchildren with stories about parents, aunts and uncles who had emigrated from Lebanon and settled in rural Louisiana parishes. After Philips launched the recall, Ieyoub, like the other CPAP machine users who had grown sick, said he began to question whether the device he had used for hours every night was to blame. And as the prosecutor who took on the dangerous practices of tobacco companies, he wondered why the federal government did not warn the public years earlier. “To think that so many people are going to suffer,” he said in an interview last year. “There has to be some kind of accountability.” Early Warning System Members of Congress have repeatedly questioned the FDA’s oversight of medical devices, especially in the aftermath of wrenching reports of injuries and deaths.

USC hires defense/linebackers coach from North Dakota State

Breathing machines the top regulator, has long promised to keep the public safe. “We will remain vigilant,” he said this year. But the agency’s use of enforcement tools, including inspections and seizures, has dropped significantly in recent years even as the number of new devices hitting the market reached record levels. The FDA said gaining entry to manufacturing plants during the COVID-19 pandemic was difficult. But the number of inspections started dropping in 2018, two years before the coronavirus crisis, and continued through last year, FDA data shows. The number of warning letters, which the FDA considers the “principal means of achieving prompt voluntary compliance,” dwindled to 27 last year, down from 217 in 2012, records show. The use of injunctions and seizures against troubled device makers has also dropped. Shortly after the congressional probe into the Olympus recall in 2016, Shuren and the FDA launched a bold plan. That year, the agency awarded $3 million in seed money to the nonprofit Medical Device Innovation Consortium to establish a center that would bring together information from electronic medical records, insurance claims and medical registries. Dubbed NEST, the National Evaluation System for health Technology, the initiative aimed to spur medical device innovation and advance an early warning system that would alert doctors, patients and regulators to device malfunctions actively occurring in medical settings. Over the course of eight years, the FDA devoted millions of dollars to the effort. The nonprofit paid for travel, consultants, technology and bonuses, and about $400,000 a year in pay for its last executive director, records

show. But the group has yet to develop a comprehensive new system. Patient advocates and others have questioned whether Shuren — one of the most influential voices in the $185-billion-a-year U.S. medical device industry — pushed hard enough to see the plan succeed. Shuren was the vice chairman of the membership committee at MDIC and has been a board member for years, records show. One top FDA official said Shuren’s connection to the group, given the deep involvement of industry, has signaled to device makers that they have an ally in the agency responsible for regulating them. “It smells to high heaven as far as I’m concerned,” said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to comment publicly. The FDA said Shuren adheres to all ethics and conflict of interest guidelines. Shuren declined an interview request and to answer written questions. The FDA noted that representatives from other government agencies are also on the board of MDIC and that a network of hospitals, medical centers, clinics and practitioners is bringing together data about devices. The agency said it requires funding to go directly to building and maintaining the network of partners. In a statement, MDIC said that NEST, a “sub-group” within the nonprofit, did not receive enough money to build an active surveillance system and that as much as $50 million a year would be needed to do so. The FDA official, who has long been familiar with the effort, said very little has come out of the project. “It has been a huge waste of time and money,” the official said. “It was all in the service of industry.” Public health experts and

others said they worry that it’s only a matter of time before another emergency unfolds. “Everybody at the FDA that I ever worked with — everybody — gets up in the morning and the one thing that they most worry about every day is, ‘Is there something on the market that’s going to hurt anybody?’ Nobody wants that on their heads,” said Larry Kessler, a former FDA official who spent 13 years at the agency before leaving in 2009. “When people’s lives are concerned, you want to take quicker action.” “Government Is Supposed to Be There” Long before his cancer diagnosis, former Louisiana Attorney General Ieyoub often talked to his family about good government. “Government is supposed to be there for people who don’t have a voice,” his son-in-law, Art Murray, recalled Ieyoub saying. In recent years, the veteran prosecutor compared the Philips case to the battle he fought against tobacco companies in the 1990s. Even then, as the industry used cartoon characters to market cigarettes to children, Ieyoub fretted about the government’s failure to intercede. “That’s the job of these agencies,” he said. It’s one of the reasons he grew profoundly distressed after the Philips recall, his family members said. Murray said Ieyoub believed the company was determined to keep the problem with its machines secret “and unfortunately a regulatory agency ... fell right into that trap.” “This is one of those perfect storm situations,” Murray said. Ieyoub, who had recovered from mouth cancer, died of an aortic aneurysm in April. Known as “Giddie” to his five grandchildren, he was 78. Republished with Creative Commons License (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0).

SoFi Stadium to host Super Bowl LXI in 2027 By City News Service

oFi Stadium will play host to Super Bowl LXI in February 2027, the NFL announced Wednesday. Team owners unanimously approved the venue selection during league meetings in Dallas. “We are very excited to bring the Super Bowl back to Los Angeles for the second time in five years,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. “The city did an outstanding job hosting Super Bowl 56 in the incredible SoFi Stadium and we believe that Super Bowl 61 will be even more memorable. The Los Angeles Rams, the Los Angeles Host Committee and many other outstanding partners will help create an unforgettable week of events culminating in Super Bowl Sunday in 2027 that will celebrate the region as an epicenter of sports, entertainment and culture.” According to ESPN,

Super Bowl LXI will be broadcast on ESPN and ABC -- the first ever Super Bowl broadcast for ESPN and the first for ABC since Super Bowl XL in February 2006. SoFi Stadium played host to its first Super Bowl in February 2022, which saw the Rams defeat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in Super Bowl LVI. Hosting Super Bowl LXI in 2027 will put the Los Angeles region in the worldwide sporting spotlight for three straight years -- with the region scheduled to play host to a portion of the 2026 World Cup, and then host the 2028 Summer Olympics. “On behalf of the city of Inglewood, we are pleased to welcome the NFL and Super Bowl LXI back to Inglewood in 2027,” Inglewood Mayor James Butts said. “Given the success of the 2022 event, we are certain the NFL will find SoFi Stadium and the city of

Inglewood ready to deliver an exciting and memorable Super Bowl LXI.” Los Angeles Rams Owner/Chairman E. Stanley Kroenke added, “We are grateful to Commissioner Goodell and our partners at the other 31 teams for this opportunity to once again elevate our league’s biggest moment. More so, we are honored that Super Bowl will return to Los Angeles and Inglewood for a second time in five years and excited to build upon the substantial impact to local businesses and community organizations that resulted from hosting Super Bowl LVI.” This season’s Super Bowl LVIII will be played in February at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Super Bowl LIX will be played in February 2025 at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, and Super Bowl LX will be played in February 2026 at Levi’s

9.5M Southern California residents likely to travel for holidays By City News Service

ollowing a recordsetting Thanksgiving travel season, Southern California residents are now looking to escape the area for the Christmas and New Year's holiday season, with 9.5 million locals expected to hit the roads and airways, according to the Automobile Club of Southern California. The Auto Club prediction of Southern California travelers is a 3% increase from last year's travel number during the same period, and 2% above the level from 2019, the last pre-pandemic year-end holiday season. Nationally, 115.2 million people are expected to travel for the holidays, making it the second-busi-

est on record, behind the 119.3 million who traveled in 2019. The Auto Club defines the holiday travel season as Dec. 23 through Jan. 1. Among Southern California travelers, 8.3 million are expected to drive to their destinations, while 829,000 are expected to fly. Others will take means such as bus, train or cruise ship.

Chargers fire head coach, general manager following big loss to Raiders By City News Service

ollowing an embarrassing loss to the Raiders on Thursday night, the Los Angeles Chargers Friday fired head coach Brandon Staley and General Manager Tom Telesco. “I want to thank Tom and Brandon for their hard work, dedication and professionalism, and wish both them and their great families nothing but the best,” team owner Dean Spanos said in a statement. “These decisions are never easy, nor are they something I take lightly -especially when you consider the number of people they impact. “We are clearly not where we expect to be, however, and we need new vision. Doing nothing in the name

of continuity was not a risk I was willing to take. Our fans have stood strong through so many ups and down and close games. They deserve more. Frankly, they’ve earned more. Building and maintaining a championshipcaliber program remains our ultimate goal. And reimagining how we achieve that goal begins today.” The announcement followed the Chargers’ 63-21 defeat against the Raiders on Thursday Night Football in Las Vegas. The Chargers have a record of 5-9 on the year, placing them fourth in the AFC West. The team’s fortunes took a downward turn earlier this week when starting quarterback Justin Herbert suffered

a season-ending finger injury in a loss to the Denver Broncos. Chargers outside linebackers coach Giff Smith was named interim head coach. He has been with the Chargers since 2016, but has 32 years of coaching experience. The teams’ director of player personnel, JoJo Wooden, was named interim general manager. Wooden has been with the team since 2013. The Chargers are scheduled to host the Buffalo Bills on Dec. 23, then travel to Denver the following week before wrapping up the season at home against the Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs.

AARP fraud experts promote tips on avoiding holiday scams By Suzanne Potter, Producer, Public News Service

oliday scammers are upping their game this year, according to experts at the AARP FraudWatch Network. Bad actors bombard people with emails, text messages and ads on social media that could infect your device and steal your personal information if you click on the link. Liz Buser, senior adviser for AARP’s Fraud Prevention Programs team, warns against any deal that seems too good to be true. “Please do not click on the link. Instead, go to a web browser and type in the address for the company that is supposedly offering the deal. Make sure that you’re going to legitimate websites. And you can navigate to them again,” she cautioned. She added it’s probably a

scam if you get an unsolicited communication - if the person seems to be playing on your emotions, if they urge you to act immediately, or if they ask for payment via gift card, wire transfer, cryptocurrency or a peer-to-peer payment app such as Venmo or Zelle. Also, be aware that the first few entries that pop up on search engines are often marked “sponsored,” which means they are really ads that may have been purchased by scammers. Buser also warns people not to fall for calls or messages claiming to be a relative in trouble. She advises hanging up and calling back - because caller ID can be faked. “AI technology, including voice-mimicking software, deep fake videos and chatbots like Chat GPT. They can all

be used by bad actors, unfortunately. It gives scammers the ability to impersonate anybody. It could be your grandchild, a police officer, or even your spouse, and this is just the tip of the iceberg,” she explained. Holiday travel can turn into a nightmare if you book through an illegitimate website, so don’t click on social-media travel links. If you suspect a scam, you can contact AARP.org/fraudwatch and report it to the Federal Trade Commission’s website, which is reportfraud@ftc.gov.

Lawmakers propose bill to stop double taxation after fraud lawsuits By Suzanne Potter, Producer, Public News Service

emocrats in Congress reintroduced legislation last week to protect consumers who win lawsuits against big corporations from being overtaxed by the Internal Revenue Service. The bill would ensure people who win fraud cases receive the full amount of damages, rather than being unfairly taxed on fees awarded to their attorneys.

While serving in the Navy, Mario Montemayor bought a BMW in San Diego ten years ago for $30,000. The seller failed to disclose structural damage. He sued and won his money back, plus attorneys’ fees. Then the IRS came knocking. “They already taxed my attorney on his winnings,” said Montemayor. “And he

said he paid taxes on his. Then the IRS comes back at me and tries to ask me for money on his winnings as well. So, it’s basically a double-taxation deal.” The IRS demanded Montemayor pay $58,000 dollars in taxes, penalties and interest on the $162,000 that went straight to his attorney. This law would reverse

a Trump-era policy that allows the IRS to tax plaintiffs on the full amount of the judgment in fraud cases - including money awarded to their attorneys. Opponents of the bill argue that it would incentivize litigation and reduce revenues to the IRS. U.S. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., is a co-sponsor of the bill.

“People who win their cases can end up owing more in taxes than they actually receive in compensation,” said Cortez Masto. “It’s not fair. My legislation will end double taxation and keep more money in the pockets of Americans who stand up against fraud and abuse.” Montemayor said this has been hanging over his family for too long.

“It’s not just the actual financial aspect of it, and we don’t make a lot of money,” said Montemayor. “But it’s also the fact that the IRS is constantly asking for the money. It’s stressful.” A version of the bill, called the End Double Taxation of Successful Consumer Claims Act, has also been introduced in the U.S. House.

DECEMBER 18- DECEMBER 24, 2023 9 A DEED OF TRUST DATED AUGUST 23, 2005. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. Affinia Default Services, LLC, as the duly appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded August 25, 2005 as Document No.: 05 2046580 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Los Angeles County, California, executed by: Eleuterio Raul Cruz, a widow, as Trustor, will be sold AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER for cash (payable in full at time of sale by cash, a cashier’s check drawn by a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state). All right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said deed of trust in the property situated in said county and state, and as more fully described in the above referenced deed of trust. Sale Date: January 9, 2024 Sale Time: 10:00 AM Sale Location: Behind the fountain located in Civic Center Plaza, 400 Civic Center Plaza, Pomona, CA 91766 File No.:23-05855CA The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 12132 Deana Street, El Monte, CA 91732. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made in an “AS IS” condition, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $0.00 (Estimated). Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. 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, (916) 939-0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website, www.nationwideposting. com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 23-05855CA. 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 website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (916) 939-0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 23-05855CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. File No.:23-05855CA 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.

KALLOCH 2002 PERSONAL TRUST, and DOES 1 to 10 Defendants. THE ESTATE OF ANTHONY KALLOCH Cross-Complainant, vs. NOVOTNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES,

and ROES 1 to 10 Cross-Defendants. Case No.: 23GDCV00649 FIRST AMENDED CROSS-COMPLAINT Dept: D Judge: Hon. Ralph C. Hofer Action Filed: 03/30/2023 Trial Date: Not set Defendant/Cross-Complainant THE ESTATE OF ANTHONY KALLOCH alleges as follows: Cross-Complainant’s Factual Allegations 1. Cross-Complainant is informed and believes, and upon such information and belief alleges, that at all times herein relevant, Cross-Defendant NOVOTNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES is an entity doing business in Los Angeles County and is a business entity of unknown nature in the State of California. The incident that gives rise to this action took place in Los Angeles County. 2. Cross-Complainant hired CrossDefendant NOVOTNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES, a moving company to move ANTHONY L KALLOCH’s personal property out of Cross 1 Complainant’s Unit 201. 3. Cross-Defendant expressly warranted and represented to the CrossComplainant that they would handle the Cross-Complainant’s property with utmost care and in accordance with industry standards. 4. Cross-Defendant caused damage to the fire sprinkler system within Unit 201. 5. The damage to the fire sprinkler caused significant water damage to Cross Complainant’s unit, surrounding units and common area, causing substantial monetary losses and emotional distress to Cross-Complainant. 6. Cross-Complainant does not know the true names and capacities, whether individual, corporate, associate or otherwise, of the Cross-Defendants sued herein under the fictitious names ROES 1 through 20, inclusive, but in this connection, Cross-Complainant alleges that the Cross Defendants sued herein as ROES 1 through 20, inclusive, were liable to Cross-Complainant for indemnity based on their conduct in connection with Plaintiff’s claimed damages upon the principles of implied indemnity; and Cross-Complainant further alleges that all of the Cross-Defendants sued herein by a fictitious name are jointly, severally, and concurrently liable and responsible with their above-named co-Cross-Defendants upon the causes of action hereinafter set forth and Cross Complainant prays leave of this court to insert by amendment the true names of the fictitiously named CrossDefendants when they become known to Cross-Complainant. FIRST CAUSE OF ACTION (Equitable Indemnity against CrossDefendant NOVOTYNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES, and 3 ROES 1 to 10) 7. Cross-Complainant hereby incorporates each and every allegation of paragraphs 1 through 6, inclusive, as if fully set forth herein. 8. Cross-Complainant has been sued in the principal action by Plaintiff, who seeks to recover damages as a result of the incident as alleged in the Complaint. Plaintiff has alleged that Defendant was in some manner responsible for the occurrence of said incident and the alleged damages. Cross-Complainant has filed an Answer to the Plaintiff’s Complaint and has denied any responsibility or liability whatsoever for the incident or damages allegedly sustained by Plaintiff. 9. While denying the allegations in the Complaint, Cross-Complainant provisionally alleges that should Plaintiff be found to have suffered damages as alleged, said damages were proximately caused or contributed to by the conduct of the Cross-Defendants. 10. Should this Cross-Complainant be held liable to the Plaintiff for damages as al-leged in the principal action, either by way of judgment or settlement, CrossComplainant is entitled by reason of principles of equity and justice to indemnity from and to be held harmless by CrossDefendants, and each of them, because of their conduct contributing to the underlying incident. Cross-Defendants’ negligence is premised on their damage to a sprinkler head that allegedly caused damage to Plaintiff’s unit. Evidence suggests that Cross-Defendants damaged the sprinkler head while moving items out of a unit owned by Cross-Complainant. 11. In the event Cross-Complainant is required to pay damage to the Plaintiff in excess of Cross-Complainant’s comparative share of those damages, if any, Cross-Complainant seeks and is entitled to be indemnified and to recover from Cross-Defendants, and each of them, on a comparative basis, in an amount which bears the same ratio to the total recovery of the Plaintiff as the ratio of fault each Cross-Defendant bears to the total fault of all persons whose conduct contributed to the Plaintiff’s damages, if any. 12. Cross-Complainant has necessarily incurred costs, investigative expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees to date, and will incur further costs, investigative expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees by reason of the principal action instituted against him by Plaintiff, and in pursuing this Cross-Complaint for full or partial indemnity and declaratory relief, will thereby sustain further monetary loss, and Cross-Complainant should be indemnified and held harmless by CrossDefendants, and each of them, for any such monetary losses incurred. SECOND CAUSE OF ACTION (Negligence against Cross-Defendant

LEGALS NOVOTNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES, and ROES 1 to 10) 13. Cross-Complainant hereby incorpo-rates each and every allegation of paragraphs 1 through 12, inclusive, as if fully set forth herein. 14. Cross-Defendant owed a duty of care to Cross-Complainant to handle their property with reasonable care and skill during the move to avoid reasonable and foreseeable injury to Cross Complainant, and knew or should have foreseen with reasonable certainty that the CrossComplainant would suffer monetary damages as set forth herein, if CrossDefendants failed to perform their work in Unit 201 in a proper and workmanlike manner. 15. Cross-Defendant breached the duty of care owned to the CrossComplainant by failing to exercise the level of care and skill expected of a competent moving company and neglected to cause labor, work and services to be performed properly and adequately and negligently breaking a common area fire sprinkler while moving furniture in and out of Cross-Complainant’s Unit 201, resulting in damages to the Cross-Complainants and surrounding units causing a massive water intrusion and loss event in Unit 201 and surrounding units and those common areas making up the boundaries of the units. 16. As a direct and proximate result of the foregoing negligence, carelessness, and unworkmanlike conduct of CrossDefendants including the failure to perform and complete the work in a workmanlike manner, Cross-Complainants have suffered substantial damages, both general and special. The exact amount is currently unknown to Cross-Complainant. Cross-Complainant will establish the precise nature of such damages and their costs, including fees, according to proof at the time of trial. THIRD CAUSE OF ACTION (Recovery against the Bond of the Cross-Defendant NOVOTNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES, 3 and ROES 1 to 10) 17. Cross-Complainant realleges and incorporates herein by reference each and every allegation in paragraphs 1 through 16 inclusive, as though fully set forth therein. 18. Cross-Complainant is informed and believes, and based therein alleges, that upon the application of CrossDefendant NOVOTNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES and Roes 1 to 10, and each of them, to the Bureau of Household Goods and Services of the State of California in accordance with Section 19249 of the Business and Professions Code Cross-Defendant deposited with the Bureau a policy of insurance or bond issued by a licensed company authorized to write such insurance or surety bonds in the state in the sum of no less than $100,000 for an accident resulting in damage to or destruction of prop-erty, other than property being transported by the household mover for any shipper of consigner, whether it is the property of one or more than one claimant and inuring to the benefit of any person damaged as a result of such accident. 19. Cross-Complainant is informed and believes, and based thereon alleges, that in connection with moving CrossComplainant’s property from Unit 201, Cross-Defendant caused damage to Cross-Complainant’s property, unit and the surrounding units by breaking the fire sprinkler. Cross-Complainant is informed and believes, and based thereon alleges, that the breaking of the fire sprinkler by Cross-Defendant caused damages to Cross-Complainant’s property and unit. The exact amount is currently unknown to Cross-Complainant. Cross-Complainant will establish the precise nature of such damages and their costs, including fees, according to proof at the time of trial. 20. For the reasons set forth hereinabove, said Cross-Defendant, as surety, are indebted to Cross-Complainant in the full amount of the penal sum of the bond deposited with the Bureau of Household Goods and Services. FOURTH CAUSE OF ACTION (Declaratory Relief against NOVOYNY’S ESTATE SALE SERVICES, and ROES 1 to 10) 21. Cross-Complainant realleges and incorporates herein by reference each and every allegation in paragraphs 1 through 20 inclusive, as though fully set forth therein. 22. An actual controversy has arisen and now exists between CrossComplainant and Cross-Defendants, and each of them. Cross-Complainant contends that it is in no way legally responsible for the injuries or damages alleged to have been or to be sustained by Plaintiff. Cross Complainant further alleges that if, as a result of the matters alleged in Plaintiff’s Complaint, Cross Complainant is held liable for any part of the claim asserted against him, a declaration be made that the Cross-Defendants, and each of them, are obligated to totally or partially indemnify Cross-Complainant against any and all losses or expenses as may arise from the defense of the underlying action, in the prosecution of this Cross-Complaint, and from any judgment rendered or settlement reached in the underlying action, CrossDefendants, and each of them, denying said obligation. 23. A judicial determination of the rights, duties and responsibilities of the parties hereto is necessary and appropriate at this time. WHEREFORE, Cross-Complainant prays for judgment against CrossDefendants, and each of them, as follows: 1. For a declaration that the conduct of Cross-Defendants, and each of them, contributed in some percentage to the damages of which Plaintiff complains and for a declaration of that percentage; 2. That this court declare that Cross-Complainant be indemnified, fully or partially, against any loss or expense as may arise from a judgment, if any,

rendered in favor of Plaintiff against CrossComplainant, and for any loss or expense incurred by Cross-Complainant in the event the principal action is dismissed or in any manner terminated without judgment, and that this court enter its judgment against Cross-Defendants, and each of them, in favor of Cross-Complainant, in an amount which will permit such indemnification and for Cross-Complainant’s costs of suit, investigative expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, both in the original action herein and in this action for partial or full indemnity and declaratory relief; 3. For general and special damages ac-cording to proof; 4. For costs of suit incurred herein; and 5. For such other and further relief as the court may deem just and proper.

Former West Covina fire chief awarded nearly $1M in attorneys’ fees By City News Service

former West Covina fire chief who was awarded $4.1 million by a jury earlier this year in his disability discrimination suit against the city was granted nearly $1 million in attorneys’ fees last week. On May 5, the Los Angeles Superior Court panel found that ex-Fire Chief Larry Whithorn was the victim of disability retaliation, whistleblower retaliation and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Trial testimony revealed that the West

Covina Firefighters Association, through its thenPresident Matthew Jackson, allegedly engaged in various tactics to leverage a better union contract for the city’s firefighters, which included targeting Whithorn immediately after his medical leave with a no-confidence vote. On Dec. 11, Judge Maurice A. Leiter awarded Whithorn $988,000 in attorneys’ fees. Whithorn’s lawyers had sought $1.97 million. “Employment actions

typically present complex facts and contingent risk; this case was not unusually complex and did not involve unusual risk,” the judge wrote. “The risks and complexities here do not warrant a doubling of fees.” In their court papers, attorneys for the city argued that the fees request should be “significantly reduced to reflect the reasonable hourly rates for attorneys of similar skill and experience.” The Whithorn trial also included testimony from City Councilman Tony

Wu, who was endorsed by the union and alleged to have called for Whithorn’s

termination as an “absentee chief.” Then-City Manager David Carmany was also

called to the stand. Carmany resigned in May, citing personal reasons.

Juvenile arrested in connection with ‘swatting’ of OC synagogues in Tustin, Fullerton By City News Service

juvenile suspect was taken into custody in connection with alleged “swatting” attacks targeting synagogues in Tustin and Fullerton, federal authorities said Wednesday. The FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force arrested the suspect Tuesday morning, according to the FBI. No specifics were provided regarding the exact location of the arrest, and the juvenile suspect was not identified due to age. The juvenile was expected to be charged at

the state level by the Orange County District Attorney’s Office in connection with the two alleged swatting incidents, which are fake reports of crimes designed to generate large responses by law enforcement. Federal officials said the local suspect was part of a wider online swatting ring. “A series of the hoax swatting threats had been made over the summer targeting numerous religious, educational, and public institutions in the United States, to include

Jewish synagogues and African American churches,” according to the FBI. “The group suspected of perpetrating the hoaxes was known to have called in bomb threats and swatting attempts at Jewish facilities, including at least 25 synagogues in 13 states between July 2023 and August 2023.” The server hosting the suspected swatting network has since been removed after investigators from the Joint Terrorism Task Force, with the assistance of Southern California and New York law

enforcement, compiled information leading to the alleged creator of the network. FBI officials said the network “ included members who espoused extremist views, to include the glorification of highly publicized mass killers.” “The false swatting threats made in this case drained law enforcement resources and caused a negative financial impact on local communities,” according to an FBI statement. “Evidence has shown that making false threats can cause

significant distress to victims and can cause physical injury

to first responders or other victims.”

LA County DA Gascón announces exonerations of 2 men imprisoned for murder By City News Service

os Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón Wednesday announced the exonerations of two men who were serving extensive prison sentences for killings that prosecutors now say they did not commit. Gascón, during a downtown news conference, formally apologized to Giovanni Hernandez and Miguel Solorio. “It’s truly devastating when people are wrongfully convicted, especially when they were so young at the time of their arrest,” Gascón said “In the case of Mr. Solorio, he was 19 years old. Mr. Hernandez was just 14 years old. “These cases not only highlight the tragic impact on the lives of those directly affected but also underline the impact to the family and friends left behind. I am

committed to ensuring that lessons are learned from this grave error, and that steps are taken to prevent similar injustices from occurring in the future.” Hernandez was arrested and later convicted for a 2006 drive-by shooting in Culver City that killed 16-year-old Gary Ortiz, according to the District Attorney’s Office. He initially submitted a claim for a review of his case to the District Attorney’s Conviction Integrity Unit in 2015, but it was denied. Another claim was submitted in 2021 with the help of the Juvenile Innocence and Fair Sentencing Clinic at Loyola Law School. According to the D.A.’s Office, the ensuing investigation “resulted in new exculpatory evidence and new statements from witnesses previously not

interviewed or contacted at the time of the original investigation.” The investigation also reviewed cell phone records showing Hernandez was not at the location of the shooting, while backing his insistence he was home at the time, prosecutors said. Solorio was arrested in 1998 for a drive-by shooting in Whittier that killed 81-year-old Mary Bramlett. He was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. According to Gascón’s office, Solorio was assisted by the Northern California Innocence Project in his appeal for a review of his case, and that review “led to the conclusion that Solorio was misidentified as his brother Pedro Solorio in a photo lineup.”

Speaking at the news conference Wednesday, Solorio spoke about the

possibility of errors in the use of photo lineups, saying other prisoners who were

convicted through the use of such a process should have their cases reviewed.

Fire consumes California Yacht Club in Marina Del Rey By City News Service

yacht club that has been a fixture in Marina del Rey for half a century was consumed by flames overnight, injuring two firefighters and leaving longtime members and patrons devastated Tuesday by the sight of a local institution left largely in rubble. The flames were reported around 11:30 p.m. Dec. 11 at the California Yacht Club in the 4400 block of Admiralty Way, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department. The fire quickly went to a second alarm as on-scene commanders summoned more resources to the scene.

Two firefighters suffered injuries described as moderate while battling the flames and were taken to a hospital. Both were treated and later released. The yacht club was founded in 1922 in Wilmington Harbor near San Pedro and the current facility in Marina del Rey was built in 1967, according to the club’s website. Jeff Jackson, a Marina del Rey resident and longtime member of the club, shot cell phone video of the fire from his nearby 14th-floor condo. He told reporters the club was a welcoming gathering place. “It just breaks my heart,”

Jackson said. “I don’t know what they’re going to do for Christmas. ... It doesn’t feel like a yacht club at all. It just feels like — I call it my ‘Cheers’ bar because it’s just so warm and inviting and as soon as you walk in the door, it’s ‘Hi, J.J., how are you? How are the kids?’ And so it’s a very personal club. And I think anyone who is a member knows what I’m speaking of and the warmth and love we feel for them and they feel for us.” Jackson said the club had recently switched to new owners, who were considering plans for remodeling the building.

A man who said he was the club’s former owner told OnScene.TV his father helped build the structure in the 1960s. “This has been my home for, you know, 40 years, 50 years,” he said. “It’s been a home for so many people. We are so heartbroken right now.” According to reports from the scene, two employees may have been inside the building when the fire broke out, possibly near the kitchen. The cause of the blaze, however, remained under investigation. The fire was restricted to the building, and no boats were damaged.
