Blogger Bob's comments: I guess this was the rumored mid-September action? or maybe more troubling is some's suggestion that the AG is distancing himself from Ramos? Has San Bernardino become more political heat than Brown can afford right now??

Wierd day continues....a bust (of sorts) to report and maybe election crimes involving Mike Ramos' buds??
...
Two more people I do not recall ever talking to, called me today expressing some interest in the election validity issues and offering some additional information (and it seems moral support)--names for purposes of this note are not relevant. The calls would seem typical for the issues being discussed, but both asked me at some point in the conversation if I had the money to demand a recount (even though the recount I am demanding is under an Election Code provision that makes the County responsible for the cost). I continue to hope the County can order the recount and show they are capable of taking responsible and appropriate action without having other agencies getting involved, which could prove embarressing to all involved in the denial.

Did you see the State Fair Political Practices Commission, after receiving a complaint of election fraud in a 2008 Community College District race, prosecuting one of the winning candidates, John Futch and fined his campaign $6000. Go to the following link:

The June 7, 2010 Highland News article in part states: " Ross Johnson, FPPC Chairman, agreed with the complaint by Boyle, ruling that Futch violated the law “since none of the required statements were filed before the election, there was no information whatsoever regarding the funding received or expenditures made by the committee (Friends of Futch) available to the public prior to the date of the election.” The "Teachers for a Change" group disagreed with the ruling “no evidence was found to indicate the lack of disclosure was anything more than negligent.” Boyle in the website, www.teachersforachange.com, disclosed that in a 2008 televised debate Futch admitted that he knew of the violations of election law. This was confirmed to Boyle on Monday by Zachery Norton, Senior FPPC Counsel and another complaint will soon be filed with the United States Attorney for violations of the RICO Act which outlaws racketeering. Boyle did tell Norton he did in fact contact California Attorney General Jerry Brown last year about the laundering of money from the Mexican Mafia through the Indian gaming casinos, that led to planned mob style executions orchestrated at the San Manuel Tribal land. However Boyle told Norton that since the San Manuel and other Indian casinos have funneled large sums of money to both Brown and District Attorney Michael Ramos, it was doubtful any real investigation of election fraud would be conducted. James Ramos, the Tribal Chair, according to the documents revealed, bankrolled Futch, who then voted for Ramos as president of the Board of Trustees. Boyle told Norton on Monday that Futch told a debate audience at San Bernardino Valley College in 2008 his Friends of Futch raised $100,000 for full color district wide mailers, but that money was never reported".
Comment: Money laundering allegations as an aside, I wonder if the $100,000 (or whatever amount was involved) was reported to the IRS and FTB and if taxes were paid?? I wonder if a Major Contributor report was filed by the Tribe with the FPPC?

Heh, someone I know penned a line I thought was pretty thought provoking:

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS WAGGING THE RAMOS??
PRESS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (March 24, 2010)
BOB CONAWAY's PRESS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- RAMOS's NEEDS TO QUIT RUNNING TO THE AG's OFFICE FOR HELP ON WHAT HE SHOULD KNOW HIS OPTIONS ARE IN THE COLONIES CASE & GET THE RECORDS
(1) Evidence Code §956 takes the privilege away where the attorney's services were sought "to enable or aide anyone"(client or third person) in the commission of a crime OR fraud" People v Clark(1990) 50 C3d583,621--remarkably one case even says the "client's mere attempt to defraud or perpetrate a crime by seeking to enlist counsel's services is enough to defeat the attorney client privilege" BP Alaska Exploration, Inc v Superior Court(1988( 199 CA3d 1240,1262-1263; (2) wasn't Jim Brulte a part of the negotiation team at mediation? He certainly was not a party to the settlement process and he did not represent anyone as a lawyer--if he was there, the privilege was waived to the extent of communications he heard and or participated in; (3) there is no mediation privilege--only a law stating the parties can agree to mediation confidentiality. California Evidence Code Section 1119 protects two kinds of evidence from discovery and admissibility. First, anything that was said or any admission that was made for the purpose of, in the course of, or pursuant to a mediation or a “mediation consultation” is protected. Second, any “writing” (as defined in Section 250) “that is prepared for the purpose of, in the course of, or pursuant to, a mediation or a mediation consultation” is also protected. Evidence such as photographs, written statements, and consultants’ reports can be very persuasive in mediation, and Section 250 defines the term “writings” in such a way as to include all of those things. (See Rojas v. Superior Court (2004) 33 Cal. 4th 407.). Offering a bribe or a performance (or discussing such a bribe or performance--e.g. contributing money to campaigns) is outside the matters before the mediator.
