Stay away from Gandarilla, Boys...

Found this county press release showing a postive connection between Wilcox and Gandarilla from 2008. That explains why so many more googles are coming up to my pages lately searching for "Gandarilla" and "complaints", or "Gandarilla", "name of a defendant" (charged by MCSO with trespassing), and a ."pdf" from the ".agi". They're out there fishing for dirt on him because he had the audacity to challenge Arpaio and Thomas and slap them both down in court for their petty prosecutions.

If they go after him, you know they won't stop until they've seized all offices of power, high and low - they'll have it all wrapped up well before the elections...so, it has to stop here. No more indictments until Thomas' and Arpaio's are served. Judges who go along with them might as well retire, because it's been under their watch and signatures that all this has been going on. The judiciary is a huge part of the problem in this county, in fact. By June we should have a pretty comprehensive evaluation done of the judges up for 2010 re-election in critical seats to disseminate.
