FULLERTON’S DAVE HENDRICKS RESIGNS: A TALE OF TWO FORMER FULLERTON POLICE CHIEFS- DAN HUGHES AND DAVE HENDRICKS
Posted by Joe Imbriano in FULLERTON PRAVDA, The twighlight's last gleaming on November 2, 2018
MEET THE NEW BOSS LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, SAME AS THE OLD BOSS
Former Chief Dan Huges and Fitzgerald swimming together in the swamp
FDP’S FORMER CHIEF DAVE HENDRICKS
The news today is not surprising. Dave Hendricks has resigned as Fullerton’s chief of police. The highest ranking officer of the Fullerton Police Department has walked away from his post after being placed on PAID leave since August 2018 amidst an ongoing investigation stemming from an alleged assault on 8-24-18. Our last chief, Dan Hughes walked away into his retirement in the midst of an alleged incident involving himself, other high ranking officers and Fullerton officials covering up an alleged DUI involving Fullerton’s City Manager Joe Felz back on election night 2016.
A false balance is an abomination to the lord
Well we now know Dave Hendricks will not be returning to work in Fullerton and according to a source to The Fullerton Informer, THERE WILL BE NO CHARGES FILED BY THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY AGAINST DAVE HENDRICKS EITHER. THERE IS CONVENIENTLY NO VIDEO EVIDENCE OF THE ALLEGED ALTERCATION AT THE CONCERT AND THE CASE WILL SIT IDLE AS THE STATUTE RUNS OUT AND BE ALLOWED TO GO AWAY QUIETLY LIKE ALL THE OTHER CASES THAT INVOLVE POLICE MISCONDUCT.
OCDA TONY RACKAUKUS NEVER MET A COP HE COULD PROSECUTE
There were no charges filed against Dan Hughes either UNLESS THEY ARE FILED IN THE NEXT 4 DAYS.
WE KNEW THIS WAS COMING AND WE KNOW WHAT ELSE IS COMING. IT IS MORE OF THE SAME LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, YOU AND I PAY WHILE THEY PLAY.

Fullerton Police Officers receiving Grand Jury Subpoenas for the alleged Joe Felz Dui coverup

IS IT ABOUT TIME OR IS IT JUST A GRAND CHARADE ORCHESTRATED BY THE GRAND WIZARD OF THE DA’S OFFICE TO GET THE GRAND JURY TO WHITEWASH THE MOST CLEARCUT CASE IT HAS HAD ITS HANDS ON IN YEARS?
Is Tony Rackaukus yanking everyone’s chain again? I have done all I can on this one. The chips will now fall where they may and the charges will be felonies if they are actually brought. The one year clock has run on misdemeanor obstruction of justice charges, and because the power structure all doubled down and tried to bury this, the only thing left on the table if they find reasonable evidence which I believe exists will be to charge the officers and command staff with FELONY OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE IF THE GRAND JURY decides TO BRING THEM UP ON CHARGES.
Fullerton’s Fox Theater-A 26 million dollar black hole.
Posted by Joe Imbriano in Agenda 21, Fullerton Community events, FULLERTON PRAVDA, Fullerton's downtown core and corridor, Jesus Silva, JOE IMBRIANO 4 FULLERTON CITY COUNCIL, The Fox Theater on June 29, 2018
It is official, Jaws is coming to the Fox theater and for 30 years and 14 million dollars, that is what Fullerton has been waiting for.
I have been trying to wake people up to the grand plan of the smoky back room dealmakers with the city that the 26 million dollar black hole, white elephant is actually slated for high density housing. The Fox Block Project being proposed to surround the theater will permanently damage the theater and result in its eventual demolition and I believe this will be intentional. It is the making of the perfect tragic crime. Is this the plan? Foundations, their power, their influence and their tax exempt status. Foolerton residents: their folly, their apathy and their wallets. Watch and weep as your wallet is about to get hit.
The Fox Theater hasn’t screened a movie for 30 years, yet it has taken in $14 million dollars spent on warehousing the resident rat population as the homeless sleep in the streets right outside. All this while the gatekeepers like Leiland Wilson want people to think that this movie screening is some sort of an accomplishment as this property is kept in a holding pattern out of the reach and access of the good people of Fullerton. Let me tell you a fact ladies and gentlemen, that theater seats 800 people and it will cost upwards of 30 million dollars to finish restoring it. This piece of public property has been held hostage for the better part of three decades to make way for Agenda 21 stack and pack housing. It will never reopen. The full remodel will never happen. Like all the shopping centers that have been run into the ground intentionally, The Fox will instead it will become this unless we wake up.
Yes folks this is what the Fox Block will look like. And this will be what the 57 freeway will look like because there are plans to do this at the Kimberly Clark site as well.
Enjoy your 20 million dollar popcorn as you watch a movie whose net effect on our culture was to result in the demise of the shark populations in our waters forever. Yes you can dream a little folks, you can dream that our crooked city officials are actually planning to do something nice for us for a change while the rats will be back in the morning to eat the popcorn you dropped on the floor. So will the rats at city hall, working feverishly to screw every last one of us as they have for decades.
Joe Imbriano addressing the Foolerton City Council
The condition of our infrastructure tells it all and I did ask the question that very same evening I made the statements about the plans for the Fox.
Fullerton is run by ship of fools on a sea full of sirens. Watch out for the rocks because that is where we are headed folks. Stay vigilant.
IT NEVER RAINS IN JERRY BROWN’S AGENDA 21 CALIFORNIA
Posted by Joe Imbriano in AERIAL POISONING, Agenda 21, Bruce Whitaker, Doug Chafee, Fullerton politics, FULLERTON PRAVDA, Greg Sebourn, Jennifer Fitzgerald, Jesus Silva on June 26, 2018
HERE IS A LITTLE PREDICTIVE PROGRAMMING FROM 45 YEARS AGO.
Jerry Brown signed an Agenda 21 executive order four years ago.
Not to be outdone, Jerry Brown recently signed two bills, SB 606 by Sen. Robert Hertzberg (D-Van Nuys) and AB 1668 by Assemblywoman Laura Friedman. These bills officially put the death knell to our ability to access water, AND maintain a single family home where we can grow our own food and grow our families. Of course in addition, this ensures massive tree death to pave the way for the 5G kill grid that is being rolled out all over California starting in Los Angeles by the end of the year. Trees block the millimeter wave signals that would otherwise blanket the open air prison they are setting up for the Hunger Games scenario.
IT ONLY LOGICALLY FOLLOWS THAT IT IS NOW OFFICIAL: ALL NEW RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IN FULLERTON MUST BE OFFICIALLY HALTED BECAUSE CALIFORNIA DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH WATER FOR ITS RESIDENTS.
I wonder what this woman is going to do in order to get the next round of Agenda 21 High Density stack and pack housing past the council for her boss Curt Pringle now that we are going under permanent water restrictions? Fullerton’s queen of Agenda 21 high density housing Jennifer Fitzgerald.
These new laws require cities and water districts across the state to set permanent water conservation rules, even in non-drought years. I warned the Fullerton City Council members for years about the how and the why of this. Now we are facing the ramifications of their collective cognitive dissonance.
“In preparation for the next drought and our changing environment, we must use our precious resources wisely,” Brown said in a statement. “We have efficiency goals for energy and cars – and now we have them for water.” -Jerry Brown
Bushala’s handpicked hireling Greg Seaborn wont be approving any big development projects anytime soon as he is forced to kill his lawn.
Water use Standards will be based on a formula that is made up of three main factors: an allowance of 55 gallons per person per day for indoor water use and a yet-to-be determined amount for residential outdoor use that will vary depending on regional climates; and a standard for water loss due to leak rates in water system pipes.
Bushala’s other handmaiden developer tool. Bruce Whitaker believes property rights mean no restrictions on development. That is why Tony Bushala spent hundreds of thousands of dollars getting his cronies stacked up on the council. The prospects of more high density in Fullerton are looking bleak.
There are now no options for development because years of drought have created a nightmare for residents as they will be forced to limit their water usage to 55 gallons per person by 2020. There is no water for the build it and they will come crowd. The geo engineering agenda has come to fruition.
For years I have been warning people about the reason for the drought and how it all ties into Agenda 21. We have arrived.
Sex Ed Silva’s husband Fullerton councilman Jesus Silva who stands for nothing and falls for anything has some homework to do. He will be reeling from his study on Title 23 any day now.
SO THE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION ASIDE FROM WHERE THE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS MISSING FROM FULLERTON’S ROAD REPAIR COFFERS WENT IS HOW THEY CAN EVEN CONSIDER TURNING THE KIMBERLY CLARK PROPERTY INTO EIGHT THOUSAND APARTMENTS WHEN WE ARE OUT OF WATER?
Mayor Doug Chaffee can;t figure that out and yet he wants to be your county supervisor.
THE 100 MILLION DOLLAR ANSWER IS A FORENSIC AUDIT OF THE CITY’S FINANCES BY AN OUTSIDE, INDEPENDENT AUDITING FIRM AND A COMPLETE MORATORIUM ON ALL NEW HIGH DENSITY HOUSING PROJECTS UNTIL THESE LAWS ARE REPEALED.
This is a must read: Pure evil- Who did this to Kelly Thomas and what they did to Kelly Thomas must never be forgotten until justice is served.

EMOTIONAL EVENING LISTENING TO PUBLIC COMMENTS ABOUT KELLY THOMAS AT THE FULLERTON CITY COUNCIL. By Barry Levinson
https://youtu.be/a6GfxBA-Wdo
Dana Pape, the step mom of Kelly Thomas and Tina, the sister of Kelly Thomas both spoke at Public Comments last night at the Fullerton City Council.
They spoke from their hearts and they spoke the truth. The pain of loosing a loved one does not diminish much over time especially when justice was not served at all.
Comment To Those That Are Heartless! Yes you should care about what happened to Kelly Thomas and not rationalize that because he was homeless and mentally ill that he was somehow less of a person. He died a horrific death, murdered by members of the FPD. They were not found guilty but what do you call that senseless brutal beating with three, then four, then five and finally six officers present at various times during the horrific assault carried out by some of FPD’s so-called finest? What do you call that beating death of an innocent man as proclaimed by none other than former Police Chief Danny Hughes. Hughes stated that he was an innocent man officially at a City Council meeting. Yet his training officer Steven Rubio testified under oath that no Fullerton policies or procedures were broken that fateful night.
Meet Training officer Rubio “In the video, all things considered, I don’t see anything out of policy,” Rubio said.
Kelly Thomas after no procedures were violated according to Rubio
Training officer Rubio on the right pictured with Pat McKinley on the left who proudly proclaimed on TV that “I hired em all” referring to the killers cops that murdered Kelly Thomas including hiring a one eyed cop Jay Cicinelli who failed to meet even the most minimum standards-
Pat Mckinley pictured on the right- a police chief who didn’t even follow his own departments rules or procedures when it came to hiring a one eyed cop-
The highest ranking officer on the scene, Sgt. Kevin Craig testified under oath that no Fullerton policies or procedures were broken that fateful night.
Sgt Kevin Craig was named supervisor of the year by his union after helping the killers go free.
Kelly Thomas after no procedures were violated according to Craig
Question to Danny Hughes now retired and VP of Security for the self proclaimed Happiest Place on Earth, Disneyland. How could two of your officers testify under oath that no FPD policies or procedures were broken that night let alone criminal statutes, when you proclaimed he was an innocent man?
Hughes
Kelly Thomas after no procedures were violated
Is that what your Fullerton Policies and Procedures manual calls for former Police Chief Danny Hughes? Does your FPD Policies and Procedure Manual state that it is within procedure for FPD officers to start a savage gang attack on an innocent man resulting in his death? Not one of the officers present had the decency to say to all the other officers enough already, while Kelly was repeatedly and incredibly courteously pleading for his life, referring to all of them as sir.
When I watched the entire video, there were so many thoughts floating through my mind.
First I thought as bad as I had heard the beating was there was nothing to prepare me for the savagery and the total lack of any reason to hit Kelly Thomas not even once let alone hundreds of times.
Second, it hit me that a homeless mentally ill man was the only person who acted sanely that evening. In my humble opinion it was the cops who acted like mentally deranged savages.
Thirdly, I thought how horrible, how unimaginable to die needlessly in that fashion. The actions of those police officers present was so brutal, so inhuman and so barbaric.
And now two of them Cincinelli and Wolfe are suing the City of Fullerton for their jobs back with back pay.
Wolfe
Cicinelli
Finally, in my opinion due to the statements of one Danny Hughes
Dan Hughes pictured on the right with one of “his untouchables” FPD PIO Radus on the left. “One piece of evidence introduced in the Irish arbitration that shed some light on the Fullerton Culture of Corruption was a copy of a poster that was hanging in the locker of Fullerton Police PIO Sgt. Jon Radus. It is a photo-shop likeness of a movie poster from the movie the “Untouchables”. It depicts the face of Dan Hughes overlooking a gun toting gang of thirty’s era cops with the faces of Sgt. Corbett, Sgt. Radus, Sgt. Garah and Sgt. Petropulos superimposed on the bodies. All of these police supervisors played a dubious role in the termination of Corporal Paul Irish.”
and the testimony under oath of the FPD trainer and Sgt Craig, they will probably end up with multimillion dollar settlements from the Fullerton taxpayer. How do you uphold their firing when two of the FPD’s so-called finest testified under oath that no FPD Policies or Procedures were broken that night.
This should be a case study presented in every police academy on what every officer should never do concerning the brutal death of Kelly Thomas. It should also be training as how to not as law enforcement employees try to justify those dastardly police actions after the fact in court by an official training officer.
And to all the City Council weasels siting on the dais last night, not one of you had the decency to state that what was done to Kelly Thomas was a low point in the entire history of the FPD and that you feel for the loss suffered by Dana and Tina and will do everything possible to make sure it can never ever happen again in the City of Fullerton. Instead some legal mumbo jumbo by the Mayor and total silence from the other four council members.
Heartless and cold blooded Jennifer Fitzgerald once again ignored the pleas for justice by the decedents family
Downtown bar owner sycophant Greg Seborn pictured on the right ignored the impassioned pleas for justice by the bereaved family members even after the city attorney cleared them to speak on the incident.
Jesus Silva was given the green light to give his condolences to the family members present and couldn’t give the simple we are sorry for what happened to Kelly Thomas.
Mayor Doug Chaffee failed to show any humanity towards the community or the family of Kelly Thomas last night when all he could muster was some legal jargon
Downtown bar owner sycophant State Senate candidate Bruce Whitaker chooses to do the wrong thing once again by remaining silent ignoring the hearyt wrenching testimony of Kelly Thomas’s family.
Barry Levinson hits it out of the park warning Fullerton residents of the impending collapse of the City’s finances
Killer cops suing for their jobs back,
FPD-s Cicinelli’ “I smashed his (Kelly Thomas’s) face to hell…..”
FPD’s Wolfe who took homerun swings with his baton to Kelly Thomas’s legs.
Ed Royce ruined Fullerton with his lame, phony hacks who stack the council for decades,
Ed Royce ruined Fullerton with years of endorsing total sellouts
NELSON, FITZGERALD, SEBOURN, AND WHITAKER
Bankhead, Jones and “I hired them all” McKinley
$100-$200 million or more in missing money, yes the audit is coming, roads in ruin, corrupt politicians, corrupt police, corrupt officials, fat pigs at the trough, Fullerton heading into bankruptcy and taxes galore are coming and worse. Yes Barry and I have been telling you so and you say it isn’t so? Think again. All the crooked players came out to play Tuesday night like usual and so did we, to tell it like it is and to call them all out and introduce them to all of you for who they really are and what they have collectively done to destroy this community. We will continue until they build enough oversize jail cells to house them all in and they fix our roads. We want justice and we want our money back.
Fullerton is headed for bankruptcy
Posted by Joe Imbriano in Dan Hughes, Fullerton politics, FULLERTON PRAVDA, Government sponsored terrorism, Pat Mckinley on February 1, 2018
I never thought I would see the day that I would see a Fullerton Police Chief as bad as Pat Mckinley, you know the bedroom community commando who hired all the misfits that murdered Kelly Thomas. Pat Mckinley was the former LAPD officer that condoned the use of nunchucks to break protestors arms.
Well, we lived to see that day with Dan Hughes. Dan Hughes along with Pat Mckinley need to be excoriated and exposed for what they have truly done to Fullerton and its finances. Here they are in together outside the house of horrors and the den of thieves at the Fullerton Police department.
Former Chief Dan Hughes (L) and former Chief Pat Mckinley (R)
If you will all remember the grisly murder of Kelly Thomas. He was brutally beaten to death by several Fullerton Police Officers that Pat Mckinley hired and trained. Yes Pat Mckinley hired them all and trained them all. One of the officers had only one eye and was on a disability pension when Mckinley hired him. His name is Jay Cicinelli.
Fullerton police officer Corporal Jay Cicinelli at the arraignment for the rigged trial.
“I … hit him 20 times in the face with the Taser,” former Cpl. Jay Cicinelli can be heard telling other officers in the audio tape from a recorder from another officer on the scene.
Cicinelli later can be heard explaining: “I ran out … we ran out of options, so I got the end of my Taser and I probably … I just start smashing his face to hell. He’s on something, dude.”
Because of former Fullerton police chief Dan Hughes’s statements and actions where he terminated the officers and simultaneously also stated that NO department policies were violated during the beating death of Kelly Thomas, Dan Hughes set the stage for arguably, one of the most solid wrongful termination lawsuits in municipal history.
Dan Hughes department’s chief training officer also doubled down and confirmed that no policies were violated during the murder under oath at the trial. This training officer was then given the award of supervisor of the year by the FPOA. Truly sickening indeed.
So I guess the statements of these animals were within policy as well as their actions. Well we can thank Pat Mckinley personally and Dan Hughes for his decades in the department for for producing and fostering such a breed of ruthless and lawless scum.
One eyed “I smashed his face to hell.” Cicinelli , on the left with “see these fists.. they are about to fuck you up.” Ramos on the right
Since when are police officers supposed to threaten to inflict grave bodily harm, carry it out, brag about it, get away with murder and then sue for their jobs back? Only in corrupt Fullerton where the city government is corrupt as all hell folks. Yes with the help of a crooked DA who personally for the first time in a decade personally took and set the case up to fail as he stacked the jury, and threw the case and with the help of a satanic attorney that defended the actions of these animals, the fiscal left right hook is now coming at the Fullerton taxpayers as we speak. Right on schedule, the lawsuits from Joe Wolfe and Jay Cicinelli are in closed session discussion with more pig at the trough public employee labor negotiatons as they continue to rip off the taxpayers. Roads in ruin while the pigs never leave the trough folks even after they kill someone and get away with it.
The Kelly Thomas lawsuit has already cost the City of Fullerton at least 10 Million dollars. These wrongful termination lawsuits, when settled could cost upwards of 50 Million dollars or perhaps more. Even more are in the works. There are additional lawsuits that are in the hundreds of millions of dollars that the city is faced with. There are many police officers that are jumping ship and getting out while they can. The rest are crowding the trough conning the corrupt city council into signing onto more public employee taxpayer thievery while our roads fall apart under the weight of the insane traffic and the ten story buildings that they are going to try and get away with putting everywhere. Last meeting the crooks on the council gave another 12 million to the cops while the roads are total shit folks. Yes ladies and gentlemen, they all know the municipal bankruptcy is coming. They have known its been coming for years. Fullerton has unfunded pension and benefit liabilities in the hundreds of millions in addition to the lawsuits. They are all making their plans, jumping ship, spiking their pensions as the crooks on the council get ready to sell you parcel taxes, bond scams, and tax increases, yes their plans to screw us over as hard and as fast as they can folks. The question is what are you all going to do about it.
Could it be that our new Fullerton Police Chief, David Hendricks is cleaning house? If so, I only have one thing to say….HALLELUJAH! If only we could clean the dais of every single Council Member (Bruce Whitaker, Greg Sebourn, Jennifer Fitzgerald, Jesus Silva and Doug could move the public comments to end of the meeting Chafee*), The Prospects for our city may be looking up BY BARRY LEVINSON

Barry Levinson
Why would both Fullerton Police Captains, John Siko and Scott Rudisil, good buddies with former Police Chief Danny Hughes retire at the same time? As Captains directly under the Police Chief they basically run the police department. All that experience leaving at the same time with one of the replacing Captains coming from the Anaheim Police Department with no FPD experience whatsoever. Is this just a coincidence? I do not think so Fullertonians because any Police Chief would want one captain with experience during this transitional time. But what if, like I said in the title, this was a clearing of the house? What if this was a clearing of the Danny Hughes connections at the top of the management food chain? Then under those circumstances it would make perfect sense.
Capt. Scott Rudisil, left, Police Chief Dan Hughes and Capt. John Siko all out the door
Siko refused not once but twice to take a police report from us when we attempted to report obstruction of justice involving the former police chief.
Was Mike Chocek waiting to present information that was never asked for, waiting to answer questions that were never asked or waiting for just another opportunity to set up Barry Levinson? Read the story below and you be the judge.
Was this just another failed attempt to set up Barry Levinson?
But Fullertonians it gets much more interesting. We now have heard from an anonymous source that another favorite son of Danny Hughes, Sgt. Jeff Corbett has been placed on Paid Administrative Leave. You remember Sgt. Corbett, the field Sgt. Danny boy called in the wee hours of November 9, 2016 to complete or should I maybe say not complete the job that four officers on the scene of the Joe Felz DUI accident apparently could not do according to former Police Chief Danny Hughes. Now if true, Corbett will be getting additional paid vacation for an extended period of time while under an apparent cloud at of course taxpayer’s expense.
We tried to confirm the status of Sgt. Jeff Corbett but our current Public Information Officer, another Danny Hughes favorite, Sgt Jon Radis would not confirm the current status of Sgt. Corbett. A Public Information Officer making close to $200,000 a year in salary and benefits would not give us the public any information. His reasoning was that it was a personnel matter and that according to Radus that is not given out.
Rudisil and Radus.
FPD pubilc information withholder Radus and his pal, ex Chief Dan Hughes
Read this anoymous unconfired information post to the Informer last year about Radus, Corbett, Siko, Hughes and others–This came from the same source that leaked the Felz drunken hit an run the morning after the election in 2016 that let the cat out of the bag.
“In the Hughes letter regarding Felz hit and run, DUI. Hughes writes that he calls Sgt. Corbett directly. There is something called the chain of command. After hours at a police department the Watch Commander is the acting “Chief of Police”. Why would the Chief of police violate the chain of command and call a field Sgt. directly? Does Hughes have no confidence in the decision-making ability of his Watch Commander Andrew Goodrich? This never happens and in itself is very suspect but we all know why it occurred. Is it possible that Sgt. Corbett called his buddy Hughes, “ The chief of the Untouchables” to directly to start the cover-up ball rolling?
Several days after this incident Division Commander Siko calls the four initial responding officers to his office, the officers are chastised for comments they made regarding the obvious state of extreme intoxication displayed by Felz and recorded on their Axon body cameras. The Captain was dismayed that the officers did not have the common sense to know when to turn off their cameras when dealing with a highly political situation. (An officer turning off a body camera in the middle of a call is a very serious policy violation and when politics are involved, just plain stupid). The Captain Siko told the officers that they had just ruined the life of a good man.
One other overlooked fact that may have factored into the nights decision making of the Felz incident by the Mayor, Chief of Police and Watch Commander was on-going police management salary negotiations. At the time of the incident Lt. Andrew Goodrich was representing the Fullerton police management bargaining group and was in the process of working out a new agreement with Felz and the HR manager. One wonders if the thought of leverage in a late night “get out of Jail free pass” played a role?
Hughes has a history of attempting to trump-up charges on his foes and people he hates. This goes all the back to his patrol days. Hughes has a broad interpretation and selective misunderstanding of the elements of a crime when it suits his needs which when needed he uses as a weapon against others, as in the case of Mr. Barry Levinson. In most if these past cases the charges were baseless and were shot down once they were review by the DA’s office as in the case of Mr. Levinson and Corporal Irish.
In the case of Corporal Paul Irish the department had suspended Irish for changing his mind about conducting briefing training on “seat belt policy” and instead spoke about “Ethics”. The changing of training topics by a presenter happens all the time in a police briefing and is not a violation of policy.
Most of the persons present at the Irish briefing were interviewed by PSB and married to their story…a couple supervisors present who knew of Irish’s past history for reporting Hughes and Hughes’ “Untouchables” for ethics violations had embellished their accounts of the Irish Briefing training. Why would those officers embellish and lie about what Irish said in briefing, to gain or maintain favor with Hughes to preserve the status quo?
Irish was never asked by PSB about a recording but when asked later by the lawyer representing the city if he had recorded his training, Irish told the lawyer that he in fact had a copy of the recording. Fearing that the recording would be used to impeach the conflicting statements of some “Untouchable” witnesses Hughes and the city’s lawyer fought to have it thrown out. Hughes argued that by Corporal Irish, recording himself in a police briefing room in a city building attending by 25 people (most of which are uniformed cops with cameras strapped to their chest) is “confidential communication” as defined by California penal code section 632 PC.
Hughes amended the administrative charges against Irish and now charged him with the crime of 632 PC. A criminal investigation was now conducted against Corporal Irish. Months later the DA reviewed the charges and determined that Irish committed no crime. Later during arbitration, Irish’s lawyer, Mr. Michael Williamson was able to prove that in fact not only no law was violated by Irish recording himself no departmental policy was violated either.
One piece of evidence introduced in the Irish arbitration that shed some light on the Fullerton Culture of Corruption was a copy of a poster that was hanging in the locker of Fullerton Police PIO Sgt. Jon Radus. It is a photo-shop likeness of a movie poster from the movie the “Untouchables”. It depicts the face of Dan Hughes overlooking a gun toting gang of thirty’s era cops with the faces of Sgt. Corbett, Sgt. Radus, Sgt. Garah and Sgt. Petropulos superimposed on the bodies. All of these police supervisors played a dubious role in the termination of Corporal Paul Irish.
The arbitrator allowed the photograph of the poster to be introduced to support the theory that this “Untouchables clique” may have played a role in the treatment of Corporal Irish.
After one listens to the briefing training given by Corporal Paul Irish on September 6th 2014 those present and the listener does not hear a bitter employee using the platform of briefing training as his personal soap box to deliver a self-serving diatribe. One hears a honest, proud seasoned cop fed-up with the corruption at his department and sick of working with crooked cops and the supervisors who support and defend them.
Corporal Paul Irish wants his job back. He wants to serve the community of Fullerton again. He thinks he can because Hughes and Felz are now gone. I fear that when the City Council hears the recording and knows the whole story behind the termination of Corporal Irish, fearful of more city embarrassment, they will offer him a settlement he can’t refuse just to go away.”

We await to learn the fate of Sgt. Jeff Corbett as well. His departure would also be a very good sign that indeed the new police chief is clearing out the dead wood leftovers from the Danny Hughes regime. Will Tony Rackauckas, our OC DA finally step up and file obstruction of justice charges against Sgt. Corbett and Danny Hughes for allowing Joe Felz to be given a ride home after smashing his car into a tree and reeking like booze fleeing the scene of an accident? I can only pray that finally our DA will do the right thing.

IS BEAUMONT’S BULLET TRAIN FINALLY COMING TO FULLERTON?
Posted by Joe Imbriano in Fullerton politics, FULLERTON PRAVDA, Highway Robbery on December 20, 2017
Last year in BEAUMONT: 7 men were charged with 94 felonies over the missing $43 million and today 4 Beaumont officials plead guilty in a $43M embezzlement case.
http://www.desertsun.com/videos/news/2016/05/17/84509236/
any of these faces look familiar?
Is Fullerton next? If it is, then this time, if it becomes a BIG STORY, with HUGE CROOKS, then they are gonna have to bring in some huge cots at the jail.
Where did all OF FULLERTON’S road repair money go?
Joe Imbriano questions why Fullerton has totally abandoned almost all street repair for decades. All other surrounding cities have the same issues with out of control pensions, payroll, and benefits costs and yet these surrounding cities have managed to repave all of their streets year after year and keep their streets in workable order.
We want answers and we aim to get them. Use your head folks, do the math. We are not talking about advanced math, just basic elementary simple math. 90 percent of our roads are total shit folks and the result of city officials, city employees and elected representatives completely and totally ignoring the problem, and not just for years but for decades! This means that there has been 30 plus years of elected and appointed officials who have failed to do their jobs in the most rudimentary way and it is past time that all of them collectively be held to account. Some of these leaders act less like the gods that they think they are and really act more like the godfather.
Meanwhile, Fullerton, with its huge property tax and sales tax base has its streets, water mains, and sewer pipes, almost all 200 miles of them crumbling in ruin while these stool pigeons on the council look the other way and push for massive highrise development and dirty favors for their crony pals. No longer will this and other issues be ignored.
Open your eyes. Something is seriously wrong in Fullerton that in my opinion, is going to make the Bell and Beamont scandals look like a lemonade stand heist.
You decide for yourself.

Our streets are the joke of Southern California, we are drowning in millions of dollars in red ink caused by overly generous salary and pension increases, our traffic congestion is quickly reaching big city proportions and our elected representatives are the poster children for corruption and crony capitalism, yet the biggest problem still remains the corruption throughout the ranks of our Fullerton Police Department. They have the power to use lethal force against the public and the ability to put innocent people in jail. I have first hand experience with the latter statement. This can definitely impact adversely every citizen in Fullerton. It does not matter if you are an activist or you are someone who does not know the names of any of our elected officials. We are all at risk and will continue to be at risk until we clean house at the FPD!
So with this as the backdrop, I spoke at the Fullerton City Council during Public Comments on April 18, 2017. They give you a “generous” 3 whole minutes to speak. In reality, with the current group of council members, it would not matter if they gave you three hours or even three days to speak because they ignore everything out of the public’s mouths unless you choose to kiss their you now what!
I spoke about two very important subjects. The first subject was the failure of our “reformed” Fullerton Police Department to take the statements from Joe Imbriano and myself to report the crime of obstruction of justice by recently retired Police Chief, Dan Hughes in regard to his failure to allow his officers to follow normal police procedure to arrest Joe Felz for DUI and for leaving the scene of an accident with damages. Joe Felz was eventually charged with those two counts, months after the incident by the OCDA Office. I admonished the entire council for its continued failure to discuss this very important issue.
With my remaining 30 seconds I dropped a bombshell in the laps of our distinguished dais. I told them that I was informed by Banc of California employees at the Euclid and Rosecrans Avenue branch that it is closing because a developer bought the property to be part of the development of the entire Sunrise Village Shopping Center to become mixed-use high-density high-rise residential units. The city desperately needs the short-term infusion of money that would be generated by the Park and Recreation Department Park Dwelling fees of $11,700 per residential unit. If they build 500 units for example that would generate an additional $5,850,000 in revenue. This would help to cover the extremely generous salary and benefit employee raises approved by the council last year. More development approvals would be needed to continue paying for these salary and benefit increases approved under Mayor Jennifer Fitzgerald in 2016 for subsequent years. I put the council on notice that I smelled a rat. Namely that the city in my opinion has been dealing with developers to make this mixed use project a reality in the near future. Why else would these landlords create vacant properties with the absence of valuable rents if they only had a hope that they could convert the shopping center to a concrete jungle of mixed use high-density housing units. I told them it was not zoned for that use and that the people of that neighborhood would fight to make sure it never ever came to fruition. You should have seen the faces of Bruce Whitaker and Jennifer Fitzgerald after I finished with my comments. They did not look pleased at all.
Of course, there was no response by any council members to these comments and the Interim Police Chief also was silent after he learned that his department would not take a simple police report by two members of the community. Gee silly me, I thought it was their job to take the statement and then go and investigate; not determine that no crime was committed so therefore no police report was necessary to be taken by them in the first place.
The first order of business has to be from the OCDA Office by filing obstruction of justice charges against Dan Hughes.
Like I said at the beginning of this post, the City of Fullerton and the Fullerton Police Department are corrupt and the Fullerton Police Department needs to clean house
Is 100 million dollars missing from Fullerton City Hall? Joe Imbriano asks the hard questions.

Joe Imbriano questions why Fullerton has totally abandoned almost all street repair for decades. All other surrounding cities have the same issues with out of control pensions, payroll, and benefits costs and yet these surrounding cities have managed to repave all of their streets year after year and keep their streets in workable order. 
Meanwhile, Fullerton, with its huge property tax and sales tax base has its streets, water mains, and sewer pipes, almost all 200 miles of them crumbling in ruin while these stool pigeons on the council look the other way and push for massive highrise development and dirty favors for their crony pals. No longer will this and other issues be ignored. We want answers and we aim to get them. Use your head folks, do the math and open your eyes. Something is seriously wrong in Fullerton that in my opinion, is going to make the Bell scandal look like a lemonade stand heist.

FAA Grant Assurance Violation investigation opened against the city of Fullerton-puts the brakes on the lease agreement with Hangar 21 Helicopters and the potentially illegal proposed public land use zone change at the airport
Posted by Joe Imbriano in Air Combat USA, Bruce Whitaker, Fullerton politics, FULLERTON PRAVDA, Hangar 21, The Fullerton Airport on December 1, 2017
Ladies and gentlemen, hospitals are for sick people, churches are for sinners, bars are for drunks and Airports are for aircraft. I wonder how some people in this community have attempted to cleverly devise a way to make an airport into the place for all of that?
Well it appears that the best laid plans of mice and men combined with what I believe to be the worst intentions of some have amalgamated into a huge problem for city officials and ultimately, you guessed it, the taxpayers.
Fullerton is being sued again, and this time it is not by the parents of someone murdered by some deranged cops, or someone who was molested by some pervert wearing a badge, nor someone whose ball joints have been busted by these busted up shitty roads. This time it is over what appears to be a case of crooked cronyism. The city of Fullerton is the subject of a 500 million dollar lawsuit between a local business and city officials and now the Feds are involved.

Well, word to the Fullerton Informer is The City of Fullerton is now the subject of an open FAA investigation. The phone call and letter to city officials from the FAA is on its way to stop the agenda item on Tuesday night’s council meeting docket.
An official FAA Grants Assurance 22 non discrimination violation investigation has been opened at the Federal level brought about by allegations made by Mr. Blackstone on behalf of Air Combat USA who is also involved in a 500 million dollar breach of contract lawsuit with the city of Fullerton. The lawsuit alleges that actions of city officials involving collusion, alleged intentional misrepresentations and alleged interference, all allegedly intended to breach Air Combat USA’s contract.
The battle over the hangar at the Fullerton airport is between a 20 year Reserve La Habra PD Narcotics officer named Rob Sims who owns Hangar 21 helicopters who has operated at the Fullerton airport since 2016. He wants to expand his helicopter and events business.
Rob Sims
and a 25 year commercial airline pilot, named Mike Blackstone, who owns an aviation company called Air Combat USA who has operated at the Fullerton airport for nearly 30 years. He wants to stay at the airport and expand his business.
Mike Blackstone
In spite of the city being made aware of the lawsuit which I have posted here —-FAC_Blackstone_8 , the potential grant violations, and requests of Mike Blackstone, Barry and myself to remove this item from the agenda forecast at the previous meeting, city staff, under the auspices of our new city manager, Mr. Domer,
and with the clearance of our city attorney, Dick Jones,
still doubled down and had decided to place the item on the agenda anyway, ignoring everything before them. Even the entire city council ignored the lawsuit and everything that the three of us presented in public comments. The worst offender of all is the mayor (Tony Bushala bought and paid for plant) Bruce Whitaker who, as Barry Levinson had pointed out, ignored the potential for this action to compound the outcome of the lawsuit. He said and did nothing and still put this potentially crooked scheme on the agenda for the next meeting.
The other (Tony Bushala bought and paid for plant) Greg Sebourn, also just ignored everything presented and rocked back and forth in his chair waiting for it all to end.
(Police, and fire Union plant, bought and paid for union puppet) Doug Chaffee could barely keep his eyes open the entire time as this issue was brought up, He did nothing, and said nothing.
(Poker faced master of the municipal time card) City attorney Dick Jones just sat there ignoring and digesting (no pun intended) everything as usual.
(Shawn Nelson darling, Royce Hack, Curt Pringle operative, Tony Bushala’s teflon girl, Union puppet and Agenda 21 operative) Jennifer Fitzgerald actually had the nerve to laugh at the speakers during the public comment period.
I also might add that I received an anonymous comment that I should remove the picture of Rob Sims and that for my safety I should remove the entire article about the Fullerton Municipal Airport and the Air Combat USA, Inc. lawsuit, I take that as a threat against both Mr. Levinson and myself. We have taken the necessary precautions as well as have alerted those necessary. Both Mr. Levinson and myself have instructed several different people of this threat and who law enforcement including the FBI should look at if anything happens to either of us.
Fullerton is broke folks, these people are not helping and depending upon their behavior on Tuesday night, it may just get a whole lot worse for everyone. Huge lawsuits are not a good thing for a city that has no money left for even a firework show on the fourth of July.
Holding leaders accountable is 6th grade civics, and boy scout basic material. It is time for all of you to get involved because Fullerton’s leaders are not who you think you voted for and the city government is run by people that are not who you think they are. Like Barry Levinson said at the last meeting he attended, the chickens are indeed coming home to roost. Yes they are one at a time.

WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON OVER AT THE FULLERTON AIRPORT?
Here is the lawsuit:
Complaint_FAC_Exhibit_All
At the November 21, 2017 Fullerton Council meeting, Mike Blackstone, Joe Imbriano and myself spoke about the lawsuit and things related to it. Unfortunately both Mayor Bruce Whitaker and Council member Jennifer Fitzgerald behaved rudely and disrespectfully to the speakers.
Mike Blackstone, Barry Levinson and Joe Imbriano speak at the 11-21-17 Fullerton City council meeting as Air Combat USA filed a $500 million dollar lawsuit against the Fullerton airport manager, and the City of Fullerton alleging breach of contract and more.
While both Mr. Blackstone and myself were speaking on this subject during public comments, Council member Jennifer Fitzgerald saw fit to smirk and laugh throughout our presentations from the dais. What kind of an arrogant, contemptuous individual behaves in such a manner while representing the good people of Fullerton? Obviously the answer is one Jennifer Fitzgerald.
Next, Mayor Whitaker added to his many previous sins by not being truthful while both Mr. Blackstone and myself had the floor to speak to them. I spoke about the fact that Mike Blackstone of Air Combat USA, Inc., who between himself and his father spent the last 38 years being a tenant at the Fullerton Municipal Airport, met with Bruce Whitaker about the failure of the city to provide him a new lease for his business. When Mr. Blackstone did not receive any follow-up from our Mayor, he decided to attend the last Talk Around the Town that our Mayor holds monthly. You know the one that is advertised that the Mayor will answer the public’s questions about any matter concerning our city. Well Mayor Whitaker would not acknowledge Mr. Blackstone during his question and answer period although he had his hand up throughout that part of the event. So after being I believe intentionally ignored by our Mayor, he waited to the very end to approach the Mayor just to have a minute of two of his time. Mayor Whitaker brushed him off stating he had to leave immediately.
So what did Mayor Whitaker rudely do while I was speaking, he continuously shook his head “No” and mouthed words denying my comments. These poor excuses for elected representatives demand from us that we be respectful and follow their self-imposed rules but when it suits them they throw all the rules out the window.
Of course, the remainder of the city council ignored our comments as well. That would be Doug Chaffee, Greg Sebourn and Jesus Silva. I believe that all five council members know or at least at this time should know that the city has breached its contract with Mike Blackstone of Air Combat USA. And what do these corrupt moral midgets (and I am not referring to their height) do, they along with our new City Manager have placed an agenda item for the very next council meeting to change (I suspect expand) the zoning for the Fullerton Municipal Airport for one of the main antagonists against Air Combat USA who wants to take over their space at the airport. I am referring to a relatively new business at the Fullerton Municipal Airport, called Hanger 21 owned by La Habra Reserve Officer Robert Sims who works as a Reserve Officer in the Narcotics Unit of the La Habra Police Department.
Rob Sims
Finally, since Mr. Blackstone reached out to Joe Imbriano and myself prior to filing his lawsuit against the city, I can state unequivocally that his case not only has merit but that he has the documented proof I believe necessary to prove his case before a judge or a jury.
I report, you decide-Barry Levinson

Question? Why are the facts for some like Council member Fitzgerald and her confidant and appointee Gretchen Cox so difficult apparently to deal with?
