Go to SBCSentinel@yahoo.com for December 2, 2011 and look at the long article on San Bernardino County District Attorney Mike Ramos--remarkable collection of potential issues with this guy. I am glad someone appears to be keeping tabs.
.
This blogger has always been amazed at how County Supervisor Derry, who made a $5,000 omission in a campaign report, is charged with a felony in a re-election year.
.
District Attorney Mike Ramos does not prosecute (nor does the State Department of Justice), his republican ally First District County Supervisor Brad Mitzelfelt, who was caught misrepresenting the source of significant contributions by the FPPC and only had to submit an amended report,
.
District Attorney Mike Ramos reportedly failed to report a payment (to his wife) of twice the amount Derry get indicted for (in his "700 Form") and suffered no penalty.
.
District Attorney Mike Ramos in the last election cycle where he barely staved off a run off, failed to report credit card payments for campaign purposes in his FPPC report (and even though this is one of many violations, a modest campaign fine was proposed by the FPPC).
.
Biane screws up once and gets hammered, while Ramos & his buds skate it seems.
.
Ramos was some co-chair of one of Arnold Swartzennegger's re-election campaign committees--he ran (and arguably still does run) a political machine with connections all the way to Sacramento (e.g. the FPPC, having a democratic attorney general running for governor attend one of Ramos' fund raisers in a race where a democratic candidate had been endorsed over incumbent district attorney Mike Ramos, the Fair Political Practices Commission and from the San Bernardino Sentinel article, it seems the California Department of Justice--how else could he repeatedly go unprosecuted for failing to go after allies breaking the law??)
.
Does anyone think Postmus was the only power broker?
