Vallejo Parolee DRC, is it a Done Deal ?

 

12/17/12

By Doug Darling


As much as I can understand and still ''want'' to support the concept of a DRC in Vallejo, I gotta tell ya, something still smells funny.


First, lets talk about, is it a done deal? As far as the Board of Supervisors (BOS) are concerned, you betcha, it is a done deal! Per the BOS 12/4/12 meeting, Supervisor Reagan was ready to sign off on it then and there, Chair Seifert stressed the need for the County to perform, ''due diligence'' = the next upcoming Public Meeting, time, date and location to be determined. The rest of the BOS are all in support of this, as is, no concessions needed.

A city of broken dreams, broken hearts and broken trust

 

 

12/17/12

By Cyndi Mitchell

 

The repulsive and above the law mentality exhibited by the Vallejo Police Department is sickening to the stomachs of those able to experience the wrath of their deadly activities or witness the disgusting arrogance displayed by those  who have deemed themselves untouchable.

 

Knowing that Joseph Kriens has decided to fill the position of  Vallejo Police Chief  I am trying to remain optimistic on the cleanup of the murky waters inside of the Vallejo Police Department. Although I wasn’t able to find the Job Posting for the Police Chief position for the city of Vallejo anywhere on the  web. Which clearly excluded anyone other than close friends as options for our city of broken trust?

It was a great event and has become a welcome annual addition to Vallejo!

Tales of VICE(mayorship)


Hermie Sunga wanted to be Vice Mayor. Instead he got body slammed.


Councilmember Marti Brown was in line to receive the appointed Vice Mayor title, but she declined citing the added duties of the position and the time demands of her job in Sacramento...proceeding to nominate Councilmember Gomes for the honor. The tribal divisions on the dais manifested themselves when Councilmember/Supervisor-elect Hannigan chimed in with, “Not so fast,” and nominated Sunga.
