At this point I'm thinking a Dept. of Justice investigation may have to happen. It's not like the locals are going to police themselves.

It turns out that Orange County has a secret system of evidence manufacturing and storage that they have used in countless cases, and the collusion is unraveling dozens of cases and may soon unravel the careers of countless prosecutors and law enforcement officers who've maintained it for decades.

All those cases will have to be readjudicated, but if the judges were involved ... wow. What a mess.

Sash and I used to hang out with a couple in San Diego that worked as public defenders. They said the corruption that goes on between prosecutors and law enforcement is depressing.

Keep in mind Daily Kos is an extreme left-wing biased website, and OC is heavily Republican, so expect it to be written as such.

Steve Johnson  Orange county California is heavy Democrat (comtrary to what the papers say). and the Santa Ana jail? the people they bring in on a Friday or Saturday night are rough and cops need to be firm or they get run over.... Mexican and Asian gangs will fight instantly even the LGBT ones fight each other.

  If you’re looking at the raw number of Republicans and not the percentage difference, OC has about 583,625 Republicans compared to LA County’s 1,048,507.

The OC GOP; getting it wrong again and proving themselves bad at math.

Michael Meyer I lived in Santa Ana and Lake Forest from 1978 to 2001, I guess things have changed a lot since.

Steve Johnson yes you wont recognize it any more. I grew up in OC Raced MX at Saddle back park and Escape Country in early 1970 as a young teenager. lived in Ventura County from 1989 to 2010 then moved to back to OC and OMG the place has changed spent one night in Santa Ana Jail and saw it first hand. I dont blame cops for being rough or stern at all. and when OBAMA was running everywhere on houses and cars were Obama/ Democrat sticker unlike during the Reagan Years OC was a Republican retirement place. Its amazing how much the demographics change in So. CAl in the space of 10 years..

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
