Manuel Carrillo Collects $24,235.93 in Unused Vacation: Model Employee or Thief?

Manuel Carrillo Jr. / aka Manuel Carrillo
Baldwin Park Parks and Recreation Director

In 2015, Manuel Carrillo, Director of Parks and Recreation collected $24,235.93 of unused vacation and sick leave. In fact, he's been doing this every year I've checked his paychecks, and if he's been doing this since he worked as director, it appears he already fleeced us more than $250,000. That's a quarter of a million dollars or even more.

This is the same guy who said that Julian Casas, former head boxing coach, should get a forty cent an hour raise for being there for 20 years.

Either Carrillo is super healthy and a model employee - who has perfect attendance, which is very unlikely - or he's cheating us by lying about never being sick or never taking vacation. And I know for a fact, he took his whole family to Hawaii in May of 2013.

My question is how come no one gets prosecuted or fired for doing all this?
