Baldwin Park Police act like this UC Davis Lt. who attacked the peaceful protesters. |
The only reason the Baldwin Park Officials, especially Chief Taylor and Robert Tafoya, had me arrested and jailed was so that they could portray me as an insane individual because they were getting upset at my lawsuits and my journalism. All I was trying to do was hold these crooks accountable for all of their violations of the law and tell the truth. Judges have agreed with me that I've done nothing wrong, and yet the city officials and administrators are still violating the law and my rights.
I grew up thinking that the government was trustworthy. But in this City, the officials, the staff, managers, and administrators are crooks. The records below prove it.
Chief Taylor and Tafoya and Mayor Lozano tried to ruin my life. They were going to get a temporary restraining order against me. They were going to use that to parade in front of all the judges to discredit my reputation so I could lose my cases against them. Then, they were going to try to ruin my clean record by having misdemeanor charges against them, and then they would report me to the California Bar to have my law license taken away. They did all this because I was trying to tell the truth to the people. Is this how a chief of police, city attorney, and mayor should behave?
The City of Baldwin Park through its towing company Royal Coaches has done this before to other activists. James Hunley exposed that the City of Baldwin Park for stealing $1.2 million dollars from taking the cars of the undocumented. Royal Coaches also stole the property out of these cars and sold it in garage sales. The Baldwin Park Police aided in this theft as they retaliated against anyone who was trying to expose Royal Coaches. As a result, Jim Salazar of Royal Coaches and City of Baldwin Park retaliated against Hunley by filing a temporary restraining order against him. Because Hunley wasn't a lawyer, the order became permanent.
But when the chief of police, mayor, and city attorney tried this against me, I believe, the grace of God saved me. When it happened to me, I remember feeling the crushing weight of the system coming against me. I only told myself, God is with you. I will not back down because I'm only telling the truth and doing the right thing. Truth and righteousness prevailed in my case. I'm still in awe that that happened.
