N.E. My knee jerk after reading this in today’s Register is to support Todd Spitzer.
If possible, without violating any confidentiality or possible ongoing investigation, I will look for Todd at the GOP Central Committee meeting to see what , if anything, he might be able to add.

John Williams just had an Orange County deputy district Attorney fired for asking questions. Nobody should have that power. Williams has been seizing assets from Orange County seniors to pay for his expensive plans. Seniors are the big losers.

There is a clear need for an investigation into the corruption in the Public Guardian’s office.

Yes, the office has it’s own fundraiser for the end of year luncheon. Those of us with integrity, unlike you, know that it’s better to reward ourselves with hard earned cash, rather than acting like a thief, which is something that you are most likely in close resemblance to. I say to you and the others alike, get a life, make your life happier by exercising your right to transfer somewhere else, or is it because you had bad karma at another agency too?

cacityguy “Which chief deputy are you!”

Well, it sounds like the department has had a huge turnover, yet #13 has 20 years there and feels very comfortable with how Williams is running things. Maybe that will help you cut down on the number of possible posters that #13 might be!

I’d say that #13 is a “henchman” type in the office. Busy snooping on others… writing up things…. present as a witness in those nasty “discipline” meetings/kangaroo court proceedings… that type of thing. Sound familiar at all? OJ is VERY familiar with that type – they show up here all the time in order to defend some of the most indefensible stuff imaginable!

The Grand Jury report is VERY damning. Only a moron would not be concerned about the findings. As soon as we figure out the best way to post it, we’ll let you all know when we get it up!

#13, you crack me up! Which chief deputy are you! You seem to be the only one pulling for Williams. You might want to start looking for another job, for I hear that the Board of Supervisors is going to take some action on or shortly after the 14th and you might be out of a job soon.

#13 get it correct,

Well, it looks like you are trying to intimidate other posters at this blog. Why all the ham-fisted posting to try and shut people up? We’ve seen your type again and again – different organizations, but the same focus to stop the conversation.

Please stay tuned for the upcoming response to the Grand Jury findings. I am sure you’ll LOVE to see it posted here.

This is the deal: People get to post what they want at Orange Juice and the really bad people start to fall apart. That’s just how it goes. Why don’t YOU post William’s response?

You seem to know SO MUCH about what happens to his office and to his underlings. Why don’t you post up his defense?

Looking at the OCR and the juice blog, you see the same people complaining. Williams forced the staff to actually show up to work and work. The staff was held accountable, a first for the County. Williams fired the last two Assistant Public Administrators and demoted a Chief for not working and wasting tax payer money. Some of the staff left before discipline could start. Seversal people have bee disciplined and either a reprimand or suspension or forced to leave. The only way to get back is to make false claims about the office and the Grand Jury. Williams office generates over 50% of the budget from fees, probating estates. Last year the office raised the most money for the United Way. The office does have a XMAS party, supported by recycling and sales of donated lapel pins, shirts etc. It is abvious who is sending the blogs or a spouse. There is a lot of hard working people in the office, but several lazy people. The office protects seniors from abuse, mentally ill and dead people who were ripped off before they died or after by family and friends. cacityguy and exposethetruth are afew of current and past employees, fired or disciplined. Just keep digging the hole deeper and give them a longer rope, a matter of time. I have worked the the PAPG office for over 20 years, they do a great job. To bad a few people can lie to the Grand Jury, the Grand Jury gets the facts wrong, the office suffers. Except for the tax collector, the PAPG office actually makes money for the tax payers.
