Miguel “Sonny” Siliceo is no longer employed with the Fullerton Police Department.
Dan (one of the untouchables) Hughes is no longer employed with the Fullerton Police Department or is he?
Today, the DA did one Miguel Siliceo a huge favor by allowing this ex Fullerton cop who was charged with felony falsification of a police report by a police officer to plea his felony down to a mere misdemeanor battery charge. Of course Sonny accepted. So instead of a felony on his record, you know what this ex cop deserves for trying to frame an innocent person by falsifying a police report, he gets some petty battery charge where he will do no time to speak of. He may end up doing a weekend or so. He should have been put away for years for violating the trust he played so loosely with.
According to court documents, Siliceo was out on patrol July 9, 2015, when he hauled a suspect into custody and reported that the suspect “charged at Siliceo’s partner during the arrest of another suspect”. Just like when the FPD tried to frame Veth Mam a few years ago.
The OCDA’s Office brought charges against the man Siliceo hauled in consisting of one misdemeanor count of resisting arrest. This is how it always goes where the cops can write a fake report and its up to you to get a lawyer and fight the rap. Well this guy did and the prosecutors were forced to review body camera footage from Siliceo and other officers at the scene. They found that the footage did not match what was in Siliceo’s arrest report. Prosecutors had no choice but to drop charges against the man and file felony criminal charges against officer Siliceo which the DA conveniently let him get out of.
Speaking of the OCDA and its crooked dealings with letting cops literally get away with murder, when are ex FPD Chief Dan Hughes and ex FPD Sargeant Jeffrey Corbett going to be facing charges of obstruction of justice from their alleged involvement in the Joe Felz DUI/Hit and Run election night 2016 cover-up? And since it has been over a year, when will felony obstruction of justice charges be filed against them? We are waiting.
The Dan Hughes mafia is shrinking and will hopefully be completely disbanded. We will keep you posted.

I guess you can’t teach an old dog new tricks or to be fair and honest.
Tony Rackauckas wants another term as the OCDA. And very shortly he will be in full campaign mode asking for another four year term.
Yet once again he fails to do his job and basically allows a criminal police officer off the hook by giving him a slap on the wrist.
Still waiting for criminal obstruction charges to be filed against Dan Hughes and Jeff Corbett, former FPD Police Chief and former FPD Sergeant.
If you fail to press charges here and thereby one more time fail to do your job, there is no doubt in my mind that you will be remembered as one of the most corrupt officials to ever hold the position of District Attorney. And if you fail to file those very obvious charges against those two men that any 1st year law student would know to do then that legacy will be very justly deserved. You already know that Dan Hughes did everything in his power to try to frame Barry Levinson as the Fullerton Police Chief. How many more laws does he have to break before you sir do the right thing?
