Flash says no to bailiff idea – but is he telling the truth?
Yesterday, the OC Register’s Total Buzz blog reported that OC Sheriff Mike Carona’s PR spokesperson Jon Fleischman had countered my post about the possibility of Lt. Bill Hunt, who opposed Carona in the June primary election, being transferred to the OC courthouse, as a bailiff. Fleischman claims that Hunt, as a Lieutenant, cannot become a bailiff because they are only deputies.
However, I met with a retired deputy sheriff last night and he claimed that Hunt could indeed become a bailiff – at the Captain level. So who is telling the truth? Personally, I don’t trust anything that comes out of Fleischman’s mouth. I have my own theory as to what is going on. My post may have stopped Carona from doing anything, for the moment. However, according to the deputy I spoke to, it is very possible that Hunt will be transferred to an even worse position, working the night shift at the Emergency Operations Center at Loma Ridge.
Fleischman claims that he has no knowledge of plans or possible punishment facing Hunt. That doesn’t mean there aren’t any brewing. I have no doubt that when Carona’s investigation into Hunt’s alleged campaign improprieties ends, Hunt will end up paying a bitter price for daring to take on the “Little Sheriff.”
How interesting Art, according to my sources, it is very possible that Hunt will be transferred to an even worse position, then the night shift at the Emergency Operations Center at Loma Ridge. Corona plans to transfer Hunt to Orange County Central Men Jail Facility to supervise bodily cavity check on the second floor. Well lets see where Hunt will actually end up as Corona’s challenger. Now why do you need redistricting or term limits if the candidates face such retribution and where is the public to to recall Corona from his office. The democracy simply does not exist in Orange Count and for that matter in the USA.
This is the american way. Just add a little Apple Pie and Baseball.
Hey Art, if Fleischman could open his door to a complete stranger just because she is a woman, who knows what Fleischman and Carona together are capable of.
What Fleischman said on the Buzz is very unprofessional of a media spokesman and should be fired!
Those are not the remarks of a professional from the Sheriff’s Dept., but then again are these two (2) professional anyways?
Fleischman is a gas bag. His blog is boring and he is nothing more than a hypocrite conservative who rails against big government and confiscated tax while collecting government paychecks derived from his so called confiscated tax dollars.
Art. Do yourself a favor. Folks like Fleischman are 12 for ten cents. He wants everyone to think he is a player and power broker when the reality is he is a laughing stock within his own party.
He posted on his blog how shocked and pleased at being called directly by the Governor. One can tell by the writing he was practically touching himself inappropriately. Then the governor came to town to meet influential GOP operatives (aka real power brokers) and Fleischman was left outside giving the OCR a soundbite of dismay since he was not invited.
“It would be great if the governor was out talking to all Republicans, not just wealthy Republicans, because we all have concerns about his proposals.”
