Redding Rants, Raves, and Reviews_News and Commentary
I, Redding Blogspot Blogger Earl Allen Boek grew up on the streets of Redding in the mid-fifties. Since my parents were divorced and mom worked days at Rexall Pharmacy and Fountain, while Grandma Mini and Grandfather Fred Markgraf watched my sister and brother and my blind uncle Larry, while running The Redding Roofing Company, At the ripe old age of 7, I was able to experience growing up in Redding like no other.

Shasta County JUST-US System Alive and Well Gerry Benito Would Be Proud
Like I told the judge, da and a probation officer, many times Christians find themselves at odds with Man's Law, God's Law and man's don't always agree. Entire chapters in the Bible are dedicated to what Christians are to do when they are hauled in front of the Judge and courts. We are told not to think ahead what we will say, God will provide it in our time of need. In my case, I took the Bible mom had given me when I left for Vietnam. Figured it got me through that deal okay. I asked the judge (Bockman, old retired fellow, if he remembered the old Perry Mason TV programs, reminded him that they always had a scene at the beginning of every trial where a witness put their hand on the Bible and swore to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Sadly the Bible has been stricken from the Court Room. I let them know why I brought mine as instructed by the scriptures. The WORD is called the Sword of The Spirit. A Christian is outfitted with the Sword of The Spirit, Belt of Truth and other Armor of God (Google it) when he dresses for Spiritual warfare. So I let the judge know why I had a Bible on my desk during the entire trial, NOT to influence the jury but to help me ward of EVIL which someone said spelled backwards is LIVE People or things that are evil are people living life backwards opposite of God's Law., things not positive to Life. But that is for another comment. Like I told them, What good would it do me to put on a Belt of Truth in Spirit daily sInce 1985 then come to court and Lie in the Flesh? Makes no sense at all. Just saying. I told him, how I find myself here today, Every time one of them lied about me I told the truth about them. Smile My lawyer told me before I spoke, he thought the judge would go light on me, if I didn't say too much. I left with a Felony Conviction. And I'm pretty sure I heard God say to me, "Well done my son." This week I appealed my BS conviction. If you come before it, stand up to this "LET'S MAKE A DEAL GAME SHOW DA'S OFFICE"

REDDING CITY HALL Finally Someone Is Getting The Message Besides Just Me Smile
http://www.redding.com/story/news/local/2017/01/18/redding-moves-step-closer-body-cam-pilot-police/96754678/
As the first Redding citizen to suggest RPD needed to outfit their police force with cameras, I would be in favor of, and help lead the call for passage of a sales tax, similar to Measure D, as soon as the entire force is outfitted with a meaningful personal camera system.
This entire RPD force needs cameras on all their officers as soon as possible. Had they had them a few years ago when first suggested my guess as Measure D would have passed with flying colors last November.
May I suggest you start with your more senior and veteran officers who seem to set the tone for the rest of the force and union file. Officer Jacob Provencio who chewed out my attorney, because he told my attorney, after he "testified" in court, my attorney "made him look like a fool" would be a real good start. Read the court transcripts, I'll have a free copy made soon.
There are other reasons besides him "looking like a fool" but we'll save them for another day.

Redding Record Searchlight Editorial Absolute Horse Shit
For over a year this rag of a newspaper has misquoted me
and likely tainted my jury pool Now this, I fully intend to look
into seeking damages from these fools.

Editorial: The right and wrong way to make city safer
Redding3:46 p.m. PT Jan. 9, 2017
Two events last week illustrate that there is a right way and a wrong way to go about trying to make our community safer.
First, Steve Schmidt, a 41-year-old Redding resident, introduced his initiative in which people promise to be helpful to others, keep their eyes open for problems and take photos or video of incidents such as people being harassed. He's selling the bright green bracelets for $1.50 each — enough to cover his costs — along with a card explaining the program.
“It came about from witnessing and hearing about and reading about a lot of crime and a lot of instances around the city I felt like could have been avoided by community participation,” Schmidt told the Record Searchlight. "By wearing the bracelet, you’re agreeing to be vigilant, be on the watch for anything that’s going on, be aware of your surroundings and anyone in need.”
He envisions people who wear the bracelets will help others walk from a busy store to a car, help them load groceries, as well as draw attention to someone being harassed in public or to a potential crime.
He sold more than 100 bracelets in the first hour from his car in a parking lot off Athens Avenue in Redding. Among buyers was Peter Alexander, co-director of Friends of the Redding Trails. “The more eyes and ears that are out there, the safer we’ll be,” Alexander said.
Local law enforcement officials haven't hashed out all the details with Schmidt about his program, but they agree that it doesn't hurt to have more people paying attention.
“It’s great that citizens want to be involved and want to address some of the crime issues in our community but it’s always good to be more eyes and ears and report to law enforcement,” Sheriff Tom Bosenko told us.
As property crime rises in the city and social media buzzes with reports of cars stolen, broken into and other thefts, it is understandable that residents are ready to take crime prevention into their own hands. The Redding Police Department and the Shasta County Sheriff's Office say they only have enough personnel to go from call to call, with few officers and deputies available for patrol.
Indeed, Redding's Neighborhood Policing Unit has arrested numerous people in downtown and along Hilltop Drive, but that was funded by one-time monies from the city's general fund. When that money runs out, it's unknown whether that unit will continue. Voters also dealt a blow to plans to hire more police officers and build more jail cells when they resoundingly rejected Measure D in November, which would have raised sales tax in Redding by a half percent.
The frustration with a growing crime problem has led to citizens inviting the Guardian Angels to Shasta County. Neighborhoods are starting their own Neighborhood Watch groups and using online tools such as Nextdoor.com. Such measures can help deter crime and finger criminals caught on surveillance video and on witnesses' cell phone cameras.
But anyone who wants to participate in that vigilance must guard against vigilantism. And that's where the second incident last week comes into play.
Earl Allen Boek, who runs a one-man, self-styled neighborhood patrol, was sentenced to six months in jail and three years' probation on a felony charge of pepper-spraying his neighbor.
It started when Boek was driving through his neighborhood last January in his Crown Victoria when he believed he saw a neighbor run through a stop sign. He turned on a yellow flashing light on his dashboard and followed the neighbor home, stopping with one wheel reportedly on the lawn. The angry neighbor told him to leave, and Boek pulled out his can of pepper spray and aimed it at the neighbor, standing 6 feet away.
Boek testified he sprayed his neighbor in self-defense, but a jury decided Boek was the aggressor because he followed his neighbor and started the confrontation in the first place.
Law enforcement authorities stress that it's never a good idea to try to stop a crime in progress or aggressively go after someone you feel has broken the law. Instead, they suggest that people do what Steve Schmidt is encouraging: be a witness, take photos, be a helpful hand. But don't go playing cop and taking the law into your own hands.
As our community continues to seek ways to slow the rising property crime rates, it will be important for all of us to remain vigilant but not become vigilantes.

Having just faced off with this District Attorney and having owned 2 law offices, one in LA county I can say without reservation. STEPHANIE BRIDGETT is Not
"qualified".
Unjust and unethical behavior by her and her existing staff, DA Josh Brown, withholding evidence that would otherwise stop a case from going further then a preliminary hearing, then continuing to withhold that same evidence until the last night of the trial, but making sure it's included in the juries evidence file to cover your tracks, disqualifies any DA from further advancement. This is evidence that is ordered turned over to the defense at least thirty days in advance, Furthermore after getting a guilty decision in such a fashion, DA's in the hallway all patting each other on the backs, should disqualify them all.
So proud measure D went down in smoke, 20 less cops equal 20% or less business for these folks and any further expansion of what now can again be called the Shasta County JUST-US SYSTEM. In a land where "Lets make a deal' insures a high conviction rate an actual trial requires lying and cheating and wining at any cost.
Gerry Benito would be proud of this bunch.

Like I told the judge How did I find myself here?
Every time they lied about me, I told the truth about
them. Isaiah 5:20
A lot of good came out of these proceedings though, more than most realize. Having my own personal finances ruined by lies and false arrest and the legal and detective expenses helped motivate me to have professional banners made up and displayed all over Redding, that I believe successfully took down Measure D. In addition to the $11 million a year over the next ten years an addition to RPD of twenty new officers for my Veteran arresting union officer to train, an large increase in related county penal cases would have also happened. The courts were already gearing up to handle the load. More cases, more DA's more public defenders, for PO intakes, more fines and larger budgets in Shasta Counties JUST-US center would of ended up being tens of millions more for them.
I think most of you will agree with me, If my case, after being asked to volunteer and doing the job for 3 years with very little positive backup from RPD, if this BS case is an example how this system would misuse this tax payer treasure then they already have enough money.

This effectively ends the neighborhood watch program. Who is going to turn in a criminal when Stephanie Bridgett will prosecute them ?. Please take down the over grown neighborhood watch signs as it was largely a phony propaganda program to begin with. Now remember ladies if a man approaches your car in an aggressive method, you cannot do anything other than scream. This case sets a precedent, that people who are in fear for their life cannot do anything.

Wonder what the stipulation of his probation is? Hopefully it will keep him off social media for that period of time. He did more damage to his case after the event with his posts and diatribes then he did during the actual pepper spray event. Hang it up, Earl.

Anitia one thread kept playing through this entire event. The need and the desire of RPD Union members and the chief (who, make no mistake of it, played politics with the safety and security of our seniors, widows and citizens) and their desire and attempts of stripping me of my First Amendment Rights prior to the vote on the Safety tax, Then the DA and so called Victim, a two-time, at least, Felony convicted drunk driver, still making speedy and dangerous daily beer runs past our neighborhood residents, The Probation intake personnel, who even though had prior run-ins with this lying victim and their collusion with the DA's office and this "victim" with over 63 pages of offenses showing on Shasta County Court Records alone and his need to "shut me up". Well this judge, who did order me silent during the trial, did not further allow them to strip me of my First Amendment rights. In fact, before and after the trial I continued to hire homeless to help me display, NO ACCOUNTABILITY NO NEW SAFETY TAX banners all over town, in-front of city hall, RPD offices and elsewhere and was at least partially responsible for it's defeat.
Financially this year of legal and detective cost and other losses suffered by these false charges and conviction have cost my family dearly but it cost the City of Redding $11 Million a Year for the next 10 years and it cost the county millions in similar BS cases, PO Intakes, trials, court cost and other fees including all the lawyers and investigators and Just-US workers. Like a bad divorce, No one won, but I slept like a baby last night, comfortable with what I told the DA and PO Officer and others. If this is an example of how you would piss off the hard earned tax dollars of our citizens, well you don't need more money do you? Silence from the other side.
As far as my rights to post? Anita, I may write a book on the entire affair before its over. Blessings.
