DA Candidate Grover Merritt Maybe Needs Some Research.....

In one of Grover's [Merritt] statements to the Press Enterprise (who in the past has had a love affair with Michael Ramos by giving him warm fuzzy press interviews and look for more of them with Kamala Harris' support of Ramos), he refers to (certain) special units as being unnecessary. At least one of them (the work comp fraud unit) is a result of earmarked funding from the State Insurance Commissioner (I think Garamendi started it) as I suspect some of the others may be. While I agree that the special units are used to issue press releases to promote Mr. Ramos' management of the DA's office, some of them are creatures of the state agencies' budgetary process, but with that said, it's a good subject area to discuss--too bad Ramos campaign will prevent Ramos from commenting directly.
