Missing person? Don’t call THESE fellows…
In solidarity with our sister blog “Friends For Fullerton’s Future,” since off- and-on they’ve been threatened legally by the City of Fullerton for doing actual good journalism, we are going to begin to “cross-post” the occasional piece of theirs. This one, from September 30, was penned by “The Fullerton Harpoon.”
A Disturbing Story…
The cops always ask us, when we dare to criticize their unlawful, corrupt,or incompetent behavior: who are you going to call when you need help? Sometimes the question evolves into a statement: I hope we’re gonna be there when you need us. Then it always comes across as a thinly veiled bit of extortion on the part of those sworn to uphold “public safety,” and are taking public money (lots of it) to do so. I’m reminded of the mob shakedown racketeer: jeez, it will be a real shame if something is happening to youse guy’s nice bisness.
But enough small talk. FFFF received correspondence today from a Fullerton resident who believes he recently made a big mistake calling the FPD instead of just relying on the kindness of strangers.
Here is the story in his very own words – as addressed to the Police Chief, the City Council and the District Attorney.
Date: Sunday, September 29, 2019
To: Fullerton Police Chief, City Council Members, Orange County District Attorneys Office
From: Toby R Oliver, Fullerton resident
A call by me to the Fullerton Police Department last night for help in finding a mother and two-year old son has exploded into at hellish nightmare after FPD Sergeants decided to arrest said mother for doing nothing more than getting lost.
My wife and mother of our three sons, Pranee Sribunruang, now sits in the Santa Ana Jail on $100,000 bail, charged with felony child endangerment because two Fullerton Police Sergeants decided it was their duty to put her there after she went for a walk, got lost and took several hours to make it back home.
FPD Sergeants Brandon Clyde and Emmanuel Pulido pitched a mission of help and concern when I met them out front of our home last night, pulling out all the stops to help find Pranee and our two-year-old son Leo. Then just as the Sheriff’s Department blood hound was about to be given her scent, Pranee stepped out of a vehicle that had pulled up, driven by a good semaritan who found her and Leo at a gas station and brought them home.
This is when it all changed.
Immediately, Pranee was someone who had done something wrong. Forcing her to sit on the curb, out came a thosand questions from the officers. Where did you go? What were you doing? Who were you with? “What do you mean you wanted to walk to Norwalk, you can’t walk to Norwalk,” Sergeant Pulido spewed. I tried to step in, and the officers pulled me away, saying this and that about needing to talk to her separately. One of the junior officers brought me aside and tried to calm me down, “We just want to help her, find out what’s going on,” he said. “Go inside and I’ll call you out in a minute.”
I waited a few minutes, went back outside and Pranee was gone. I asked where she was. “She is being arrested,” they said. “For what,” I replied, “which car is she in?” They wouldn’t tell me, and they wouldn’t tell me what she was being charged with. “You’ll find out Tuesday,” one of them said. Then I saw her head up against the back side window of one of the patrol cars. I went toward her, grabbed at the window and said “babe.” I didn’t know what to say. It had all gone horribly wrong, so quick. And I was responsible because I had called the FPD for their help.
Before I could do anything else, one of the officers jumped in the car and tore off down the street, leaving me there looking after her. I still didn’t really understand what was happening. This was supposed to be about finding Pranee and Leo. Now they were taking her away before I could even hug her…
What’s up with all the child abuse charges lately?
Good News: I moved out of Fullerton.
Bad News: I moved into Anaheim. My prayers are with Mr. Oliver and his family.
*”Fat people …got no reason to live….” Randy Newman said that! Or was it Short People or was it Rich People? Look, when a 300 pound porker lands on you…..the chances of breathing become minicule! Anyway, why do they have to recruit guys from Riverside and San Bernardino? Are these guys Prior Service? Were they all MP Qualified? Did they all have brothers, dads, cousins or friends on the PD already? Heck, we have no clue how the job process works for Fullerton….let alone OC Sheriffs, LAPD or even the CHP!
OK, about that first line: whom do I tell to fuck off?
I had my share of witnessing Fullerton Police corruption. They have no problem to make false claims cover up tamper evidence retaliate etc,, something must be done about it soon…
Feb.10th 2022. Double shooting. My son murdered and girlfriend shot in leg. Police know who murdered my son . I know who murdered my son. Suspect gets arrested on unrelated charge and let go. FpD and OC Da Todd Spitzer are the real criminals. No justice.
