As Bill Hunt’s candidacy for sheriff is building momentum, the previously unreleased Attorney General report on the Greg Haidl incident has begun to surface. FFFF has obtained the report now we pass it along, although it has been slightly redacted to protect the identity of a minor (view the report).
Well that's bittersweet.
The report was allegedly leaked to the press by Carona’s pal Michael Schroeder back in 2005 but was never completely released to the public. Why not?
Perhaps because the 21 page document is primarily an indictment against a department culture created under Carona himself, along with Jaramillo and Haidl back before Carona became a convicted felon and was forced to resign. The report also reprimands several subordinates, including Lieutenants Downing and Hunt for showing “poor judgment”. Somehow even blogger Jon Fleischman managed to receive a slap for his complete lack of accountability as PIO for the department.
So how will the report affect candidate Bill Hunt?

This is going to be a real barnburner of an election. We count no one out! The relationship of Hunter to Corona is actually a plus. The relationship of Bill Hunt to Jim Gilchrist is a net zero. The relationship of Sheriff Hutchens to the Board of Supervisors can go either way.
What fun! This could be a Las Vegas odds maker dream!
May the most shiny brass belt buckle win!
How much do you want to bet me that hunt will win – any takers???
One question, do we still have “closed primaries”?
Makes you wonder what all those Independents will be doing and the Decline to State people. Can they vote for either party?
Oh Craig Hunter, desperation is a stinky cologne…. Face it, your run is done. Time for both you & Hutchens to pull out of the race and let Bill Hunt take his rightful place as OC Sheriff…

Seriously, R & A?
1. Independents ARE called “Decline to State” in this state. (Except for the few uninformed people who accidentally joined the goofy “American Independent” party.)
2. Democrats have an open primary that Decline to States can vote in. Republicans do not.
3. None of this is relevant to the Sheriff race, which is nonpartisan.
Cripes! I can not believe I read that whole thing only to find an opinion was removed and some other kid said it was his dope and not Haidl’s. Small wonder that whole thing was not released by Carona apologist Schroeder. Now that his puppet Hunter is in the run the whole document materializes. What a coincidence! The Carona campaign has risen from the dead. It took a federal indictment to take Carona down and here’s what it says:
” In or about October 2003, Defendant CARONA and co-conspirator Jaramillo caused co-cospirator Haidl’s son to receive preferential treatment from the Orange County Sheriff’s Department in connection with a drug offense” (page 19, paragraph 65) http://images.ocregister.com/newsimages/news/2007/10/Carona%20INDICT.pdf
October 26, I believe, to be exact. Where is Hunt’s name? It ain’t there.
Dr. Vern,
Knowledgeable as usual. Thanks for the “look-up”! Oddly enough we were American Independent voters from 1968 to 1994 when we switched to Republican to get the endorsement of then Assemblyman Gil Ferguson. Being an Independent cut us out completely of the Primary function. Who were we going vote for? The lone
AI Governor choice? At any rate, the Greens and the great variety of minority party people seem to be cut out of the Sheriff’s race, unless it is designated as
Non-Partisan….right?
Dr. Vern,
We apologize for not ingesting your entire #7 before responding. Then how about this question: How can any of these candidates ask for the endorsement and get it…from the Republican Party…if they are running for Non-Partisan office?
Moxley picked it up. If anyone would know it would be this guy.
