This rash of burglaries has followed a trail that leads back to the state penal system. CaliforniaRead More was ordered by the courts to alleviate overcrowding in it's prisons. So they off-loaded non-violent offenders to county jails who in turn experienced overcrowding. So the counties have been forced to release some offenders back into communities. As soon as these releases occurred, we saw burglaries, especially brazen burglaries, start to occur with greater frequency. Thank the courts.

It was an airtight case only because the DA's office used journalist Balfour's exhaustive researchRead More on Al Solnit and the doctors who trained with Ayres. Kudos to Supervisor Dave Pine for pushing DA Wagstaffe to take the case seriously enough to add two prosecutors to the case.

I wish the fines were higher for distracted driving. My father was killed by a distracted driverRead More and all the other driver got was a small fine because she worked for the State she got off with a slap on the wrist.

If I were a CHP Officer and could have pre-printed tickets, I could easily hand out 30 tickets anRead More hour just at one corner--almost anywhere in our area. It's amazing how distracted drivers are in their "homicide-mobiles"!

I take my life in my hands every time I cross Jefferson Ave at St. Francis Street on my way to RedRead More Morton Park. The crosswalk is huge and brightly painted in yellow but the cars just ignore it. I have said I'd be a decoy for the police at that intersection but they do not seem interested. RWC could make a lot of money from tickets there, that's for sure!
