CROOKED..Rusty Bailey is the worst possible decision for the Taxpayers and Ratepayers of the City of Riverside. We have already had four years of unscrupulous behavior coming out of the mayors office. He and his cronies will try to purchase the office of Mayor so they can continue down the path of LYING , CHEATING and STEALING from the Ratepayers. Rusty Bailey’s so called God Like Behavior has cost the taxpayer Millions in Lawsuits… PAUL DAVIS-MIKE SOUBIROUS-VALMOUNT GRAHAM. Back in 2012 Mayor Bailey was blamed for diffusing a promotion of a Black RPD Police Officer by the name of Valmont Graham all because in reality he is nothing more than a spoiled brat, and if he doesn’t get his way, or someone tries to correct him, he will go after their integrity or try to get them fired. His montra is Divide and TRY to Conquer. It always backfires and ends up costing the taxpayer millions and he ends up looking like an ass.
But to be fair, there are two side of this story. As TMC is told, Councilman Mike Soubirous, was willing to move forward, even with all that he had been through. He endorsed Bailey in an effort to show the community that he was able to amend broken bridges. Prior to this, he asked Paul Davis if he was running for the Mayor’s office. He stated he wasn’t. At the last minute, when Davis decided to run, Davis asked Soubirous for his endorsement, but he was already obligated to Bailey.
And having a citizen arrested for clapping in the City Hall chambers, the total tab for that exceeds $250,000 this includes the settlements and plaintiffs attorneys fees. Yep,,,he’s done a bang up job (for the millions he’s wasted in taxpayers monies)… Time for a Change…

The above document has been received by all candidates, which states City logos, emblems, insignias etc. cannot be used for political purposes. Bailey’s Campaign Consultant Matt Rexroad, attempted to diffuse the seriousness of this action in the current Press Enterprise article by Alicia Robinson. He states it’s common for candidates to use pictures with police in campaign fliers. Rexroad said he got the photo of Diaz with Bailey from Facebook, though he couldn’t recall whose page. He blurred or obscured the chief’s badge and city patch. “If you look around you’ll see lots of campaign mailers with (pictures like) that on it,” he said.
Bailey knows the rules, but continues to break them. He’s been down this road many times. A seasoned politician who has entered into another predicament, not a First Amendments Right’s issue as before, but a campaign issue. This time he knowingly used a photograph of Chief Sergio Diaz and himself in a campaign mailer. In doing so generated a FPPC violation and an ethics complaint. Diaz when notified initiated the following press release in response.. If these are the professional campaign consultants Rusty hired, they should be fired. What another fine mess Mr. Bailey got himself into.
Police are the employees of the public not the politician, therefore, inappropriate. This would give the impression that Chief Law Enforcement Public Servant would be more likely to serve the politician rather than the public he has taken a sworn oath to uphold.
This same issue came up with the Councilman John Burnard campaign. Whereby he took a picture in front an RPD Police vehicle, which you can see, that the RPD Insignia had to be erased. The second shows the City Emblem, which is illegal as all hell, which had to be removed from the site at the time he was running. For fairness, both these images were immediately corrected by the Burnard Camp. For the record, both these instances give the public a perception which may give an advantage to one politician, as oppose to another. Burnard was new to the political game, but Bailey has family roots into this game, and should have known better. Thirty Miles does believe that Mr. Burnard will never do this again.
There are two sets of campaign rules, one for Bailey, and one for everybody else. The last time Bailey ran for Mayor he also made a complaint to Diaz himself, with reference to his Adkison’s campaign mailer, accusing him of using City resources. This is the same thing that he is a being accused of. Diaz, in this Gumport interview, on line 21, states he received a complaint from a member of the public. That member of the public was sourced to have come from the Bailey campaign camp.

OUR ‘ghost writer’ also brought to the attention of TMC that during the last campaign ‘LYING Paul Davis’ supported and endorsed our dear CROOKED Mayor Rusty Bailey. Councilman Paul Davis states:
“We know Rusty will do his best for Riverside, not the special interest. His plan for job creation is just what the City needs now.” – Paul Davis, Ward 4 Councilmember and Small Businessman.
Paul, did you believe all this, or was this a quid pro quo? Politics as usual in River City.

What was the change of events that made you decide otherwise Paul?.. Mayor Bailey stated in his campaign that he would not be a part of the “status quo.” IS HE A LIAR? You decide, here is the evidence.. “Bailey is the Independent Voice for Riverside.” Really who believes that?
IS HE ‘STATUS QUO? ” THE VERY ELEMENT HE CAMPAIGNED AGAINST? HE’S CERTAINLY NOT CHALLENGING STATUS QUO AS HE INDICATED IN HIS CAMPAIGN
Just for the record, Paul and Bailey, Do you know who is taking the “Vivian Moreno for Mayor” signs and replacing them with yours? This is what the sign looks like.

Did it start with one man down? The tension was high that December 9th day, and the Council meeting hadn’t begun, when the AMR ambulance was called upon around 5:30 pm due to undisclosed symptoms distress experienced by Councilman Steve Adams.
Riverside Councilman Steve Adams, seen here running for Congress.
The ailments were serious enough that he was carried out by the Emergency Medical Team (EMT) to be taken to the hospital. When the meeting finally started the first thing the Mayor did was motion toward Councilman Gardner and said… “I know without Councilman Adams present… Councilman Gardner, are you going to look for a continuance?” Gardner asked council to defer action on the current issue until the following week, since he felt it was of considerable importance that it would be best to have a full council. Questions arose by the residents concerning if Gardner and Bailey planned or conspired on the issue of the deferral, since the dialog was so suspicious. Evidently, Councilman Chris Mac Arthur made the second motion, in what appeared to be very quietly. No one knew that Mac Arthur even made the motion. It appeared that he may have acknowledged he was making the second motion, by twiddling his fingers, as his hand laid close to his head. Did Mac Arthur think he was at a Christie’s Auction? The move to defer the issue only incited suspicion from the residents, which led to jeers and criticism from the crowd. What was Mac Arthur afraid of? He couldn’t even voice a second into the microphone, he had to utilize finger dialog instead?
Was the above finger dialog by Councilman Chris Mac Arthur toward the City Clerk what really happened? This is what TMC’s Center for Investigative Reporting came up with ( which consist of myself and now one other guy).
Later in the meeting the issue of who actually made the second came up by a constituent, because this part that I’m reporting on wasn’t actually seen by the audience.Defering the issue for the following week because Councilman Adams wasn’t there sparked criticism by Melendrez. Councilman Melendrez brought up how Council voted on the Soccer Stadium issue that was important to him, when he wasn’t in town. Councilman Paul Davis chimed in to say the same, regarding issues of importance to him, of which were voted on without his presence. Regardless, the motion on the floor was to defer item #19 to the following week and allow public comment to go forward on the issue. The vote was taken which ended in a tie. Council members Gardner, Mac Arthur and Perry voted to defer the issue, while Council members Soubirous, Davis and Melendrez voted against it. Mayor quickly without pause, voted to break the tie in voting for the continuance.
It then became evident to the people that the real players at hand on this issue to control agenda items were of course, at the top of the list, Mayor Bailey, Council members Gardner, Mac Arthur and Perry. There was no doubt about that. What was quite remarkable was that no one from the Greater Riverside Chamber of Commerce was there, (as they usually are), to support the action. So which Council Member made the second motion? Well the City Clerk initially stated it was Councilman Perry. Perry looked at Councilman Mac Arthur, and Mac Arthur looked at Perry, and Perry back again at Mac Arthur. Mac Arthur obviously was reluctant to admit he made the second motion, he maintained the quiet treatment, though he had plenty of time and opportunity to verbally acknowledge. He didn’t admit it until the City Clerk back tracked her notes and stated that Mac Arthur made the second motion. Do we have a failure to communicate folks? Yes, he eventually verbally admitted it publicly. The whole ordeal actually seem to be quite painful for Mac Arthur. After public comment, Soubirious, Melendrez and Davis made comments against the deferral, which ended with the Council reconsidering the issue by a vote of 6-0. What was quite remarkable was Councilman Perry made the initial motion to reconsider. We are not sure if the jeers to recall Perry, Mac Arthur and Gardner had anything to do with this. The issues at hand were 1. Public Comment Cards and 2. Should the City Manager have complete control and discretion as to which items or issues can be placed on the agenda. Mayor Bailey attempted to defend the new language, which allows the City Manager to have complete discretion as to what issues or items are placed on the agenda. He stated the the staff worked very hard to assemble data that displayed, that this process is not unusual and many cities have implemented the new order as a contemporary way of doing the work of the people. People of course jeered, made comments and insults. The fact of the matter was that the assembly of statistics were skewed to portray a false bottom to the real truth. What was not considered, is how many cities were charter cities, some had wards and some didn’t. The Jeers and insults were so disruptive from the crowd at one point, that Mayor Bailey, threatened to adjourn the meeting. Even more jeers and insults after the Mayors threat. Taking a leadership role, Soubirous tackled the pros and cons of each issue at hand, with the support of the rest of the council. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE! Stated Vivian Moreno at the Council Meeting. By the end of the night, which was about 11:00 pm, Council did the right thing and resolved the issue at hand for the betterment of the people, by the people, for the people. The part in between showed the people the true colors of the Council, who had the real leadership and who didn’t. What is evident is that the Mayor needs to stay out of the business of the people, because the power is held by Council members, to legislate, set policy and represent their constituents. The real power is in the people, and they need to be there at council to support their council member, and in turn the Council member needs to be there to support the people who elected them. What people don’t know, is that earlier in the Council session Four of our best Fire Executives, decided to retire. One was Deputy Chief Esparza, who actually should have been Chief because of his experience level, but Disgraced City Manager Scott Barber hired an outsider, retired Chief Moore . Even Chief Moore, thanked Esparza for helping him through the ropes, which I find disgusting, because it shows that Esparza should have been Chief. Moore knows nothing about our City, and now we are losing four individuals with experience levels beyond 100 years. Something is wrong with this picture folks.. Some people at Council stated to TMC that City Manager Scott Barber hugged Esparza with tears in his eyes. What is really going on within the City of Riverside folks? Questions continue to abound as well as suspicions. What should be noted is that because of these inconsistencies, which the PE has failed to report, is that people continue to doubt the process, and therefore feel that the only way to get their points across is by insulting, jeering and criticizing the representatives on council who are failing their constituents TMC will continue to try to the best of our knowledge bring forth the truth as we know it. SHARON MATEJA GIVEN HONORARY HOGAN SABOTEUR AWARD: For expressing her views against item #19 with support links to TMC, then taking a 180 degree apologetic turn, to saboteur the messenger and calling them distasteful and offensive. Her tune changed as a result of an alleged single phone call by Mayor Bailey, who allegedly felt his association with this nazi tone was distasteful and offensive.
Former RPOA President & former RPD Detective Chris Lanzillo
At the time Lanzillo was president, Brian Smith was Vice President, and Aurelio Melendrez (Councilman Andy Melendrez’s son) was Secretary. According to Chief Sergio Diaz, Lanzillo was fired for doing some “pretty bad things.” Those bad things were never elaborated upon. We are still attempting to find what these really “bad things” are. But he did come back to sue the taxpayers with the law firm he later worked for, Lackie, Dammeier & McGill. His job was reinstated with RPD and shortly thereafter retired on a medical disability. Shortly thereafter, started his own investigation company in Orange County and did some investigatory work for this law firm. We asked the question is Lanzillo committed insurance fraud as a result of his miracle recovery? The law firm was later the brunt of a DA investigation, which ultimately led to their dissolution.
THE FOLLOWING COME FROM CITY MANAGER SCOTT BARBERS NON-PO PAYMENTS UNDER $50,000.00, AND WE WERE STILL PAYING THIS SCUMBAG CHRIS LANZILLO FOR JOBS WITHIN THE CITY IN 2011 IN THE AMOUNTS OF $3,000.00!

“When a City employee with a gun and a badge makes these statements it is the worst kind of intimidation and bullying…”
John Brandriff, a Ward 7 Council candidate back in 2011 and who also served on the City’s Community Police Review Commission (CPRC), tells his story of his verbal exchange with Chief Sergio Diaz, which didn’t end copacetically. As a result, a complaint was filed against Diaz, and sent to City Manager Scott Barber for review. Below is that letter.
According to the complaint letter, Chief Diaz’s expression of disdain stemmed from public comments made at a CPRC meeting in February of this year. At this meeting Brandriff expressed his disappointment of the Chiefs lack of participation in the Mental Health/Police forum that was conducted at Bobby Bonds Park. The actual comment was taken from audio at the CPRC meeting, it is as follows:
..as I said before, hopefully you guys will get a better response from the Chief than the forum did. There were probably 10 or 12 different organizations from all over this City, and from L.A. and out of the County. And, he (Diaz) didn’t really deemed it necessary when invited, to come and offer up anything to the community. It was was hugely disappointing for me. I just thought that there was more community involvement than that..
After expressing this comment, Brandriff states he was “nodded” outside by Assistant Chief Vicino who expressed his concerns of the statement he just made. Listen to the actual CPRC audio of the comment by clicking the below link, (comment begins approximately around the 20.00 minute mark).
What happened next at the Fox Theater only surmised to Brandriff that the conversation he had with Vicino was shared with Diaz. What you read next is verbatum from Brandriff’s complaint letter:
I would like to relay an incident that happened to me Sunday night March 9th 2014 at the Fox Theater. My wife and I arrived with Councilmember Davis and his wife to attend the showing of “West Side Story”. Shortly after going inside we saw the Chief of Police, Sergio Diaz, and proceeded to say hello. Councilmember Davis was in front of me and talked to the Chief first. When I went to shake hands with the Chief he pulled me closer and stated that should I ever have any concerns about the way he runs his department that I “should grow some balls and talk to him”. I responded that I thought discussing some of the issues would be a good idea and that if he had time next week we could get together, it was then that I realized the Chief was very agitated because his response was very abrupt and curt when he said “oh I’ll make the time”. By this time the rest of my party was starting up the stairs to our seats and I asked Chief Diaz if there was a specific number or person to contact to arrange the meeting he then reached in his pocket, obviously angry and shoved his card at me while moving closer and said “If you have any more political aspirations don’t make an enemy out of me”.
The letter below is the response from City Manager Scot Barber to John Brandriff, which assured him that the Human Resource Department did a full investigation, and that Barber will take appropriate action in accordance with related rules and policies.
There have been other incidents on record, one with public speaker Karen Wright when she spoke out at public comment on the naming of El Tequesquite Park to Bonaminio Park. Another incident occurred with community activist Christina Duran, where she was seated next to County Supervisor Bob Buster who witnessed the whole Diaz exchange. Another confrontation occurred with “Five Before Midnight” blogger Mary Shelton at a ACLU event. At this event he (Diaz) confront Shelton, and ask the question, “What are you doing here? Who allowed you to come to this forum?” An ACLU representative had to intervene to actually smooth over Diaz’s aggressive questioning. Some are simply calling him a “drama queen.” Many resident/taxpayers are asking the question of why he hasn’t been fired by City Manager Scott Barber? Is he not representing the interest of the taxpayer because he has obligations that superside the taxpaer? There are many more that, whom were asked not to be revealed, for fear of City and RPD retaliation, but we are even hearing of events occurring in Los Angeles which involve Diaz that are disturbing. Again, this is the legacy of former City Manager Brad Hudson, the current City Attorney Gregory Priamos and the former Mayor Ron Loveridge. Even TMC was drawn in to Diaz’s questionable behavior by a comment we made. This email came from to us stating that Diaz wanted to meet with us, not to talk about how to make the community better, but because of a comment made. The following is an email sent to TMC back in 2011.

Sorry, we had to redact to protect individuals from possible retaliation by RPD or other City Officials … after all as most residents understand, this is Riverside…
What Diaz doesn’t get, is that the Community of Riverside also felt slighted when he stated that some of the critics are “sitting at home eating Cheetos in their underwear.” In addition, he stated in the PE, “It’s a challenging job,” Diaz told me. “It’s not a job for people who prefer to be in their mommy’s basement commenting on news stories.” Well alrighty Chiefy, we get it… Yes Myrah, we see you signaling that the bag is empty! Let’s break out a fresh bag of Cheetos.. By the way, was that underwear custom tailored? Yes the Chief is very handsome and very married, please don’t use 911 to call him again!
“Respect for the community, respect for other officers, respect for ourselves is going to be the byword by which I will attempt to lead the city of Riverside over the next few years,” he said. “Out of respect comes every other good quality that we strive for in a police department and police officer.” – Riverside Police Chief Sergio Diaz
“Without freedom of thought, there can be no such thing as wisdom; and no such thing as public liberty without freedom of speech.” — Benjamin Franklin
So what we’ve seen, is a Chief or Police out of control. He is obviously not community orientated, as he was originally hired to heal the city, whereby, he has only been confrontational, intimidating and threatening to the residents and citizens of the City of Riverside. Even the RPD officers are questioning his abilities and qualifications. After all, he was hired by a former City Manager who had a record of credit card fraud! I believe it was still okay with the City of Riverside. But if you have the same qualifications and challenge the city, you will be destroyed.
According to Pepper’s attorney, Jason Thompson, said Mayor Bailey’s animus towards Ms.Pepper appeared to have grown after she wrote in defense of people, which the Mayor had “dressed-down” during the earlier June council meeting. In her letter written to him two weeks before she was arrested for applauding, Pepper addressed the Mayor’s approval of some people and regular attacks on others. During the earlier council meeting, video footage shows Mayor Bailey telling certain citizens they were not allowed to applaud. However, a review of the same footage shows Bailey regularly allowing applause by people he clearly favors. In her letter, Pepper referred to Mayor Bailey’s selective approval and disapproval of citizens writing that the city council had become “so emboldened that it thinks it can treat audience members differently because of who they are.” Pepper continued that approval based on whether a citizen agrees with the position of the Mayor or council members violates the First Amendment. No arrests or warnings for applause on issues Mayor Bailey supported or of people he favors were made during the June 11 or June 25 meetings.
Pepper, who previously worked at Best, Best & Kreiger, a law firm that has represented multiple cities in lawsuits against seriously ill and disabled medical marijuana patients, began advocating on behalf of those citizens after she herself was diagnosed with a terminal illness. Papers filed in federal court by Pepper allege that anti-patient Riverside Mayor William “Rusty” Bailey was retaliating against Pepper in-part because of his long-time dislike for people prescribed medical marijuana and because Pepper had written a letter to him after he’d threatened citizens who applauded during a June 11 council meeting. According to Pepper’s attorney, Jason Thompson, Riverside has been one of the most aggressive opponents of medical marijuana in California. Thompson explained that, despite passage of the state’s 1996 Compassionate Use Act, in May, 2013, with the help of law firm Best, Best & Kreiger, the city prevailed against a group of patients forcing them to leave the City. After winning the decision against patients, Mayor Bailey announced the city had won a “major victory” in its fight against patients. At the same time, the city announced it was shutting-down all remaining patient collectives. Thompson said that although marijuana reduces the size of cancer tumors according to the federal government’s National Cancer Institute, the City has effectively prevented thousands of its disabled and seriously ill citizens from accessing medicine.
LET’S GET BEYOND THIS, SO I FU.KED UP! I STILL NEED YOUR VOTE!
We actually knew there was something wrong with this guy, when we brought stacks of info to the “Z” himself, and his associate brought a file of TMC articles, which they wanted to know who was writing them. Further, are Grand Jury complaint made against former Riverside Police Chief Russell Leach’s wife, Connie Leach, was squashed in the middle of interviews, and we were told the allegations were unfounded. We know now we were not an isolated incident. Why it was squashed, we don’t know. Was there interference by the City of Riverside? We don’t know. Was there tampering? We don’t know. We could only speculate, and that is not good enough. What we do know, is that we were made to feel as if we were the provocateur, just for asking the questions.. We found it quite remarkable, when Zellebach made his most telling statement to us, “Is it illegal, or just bad business?” Why would someone tell us this? We then asked the question, “How connected and obligated is he to City of Riverside Elected Council? To Judges? To the City Attorney? To the Grand Jury? and possibly influencing the Grand Jury? In November of 2011 we asked that question in a TMC posting of “TRIANGLE OF INFLUENCE.”

Now a second complaint alleging violation of City Charter 407 came in, this time it’s against Councilman Paul Davis. Less than a week ago, a complaint came against Councilman Mike Soubirous. It seems that the powers that be continue in their attempt to get back to a 7-0 team player vote. We are assuming that the $16,000.00 Team Motivator/Psychologist isn’t working. It’s clear by the information provided, that Davis was targeted at least on two facts, the work performance of the City Manager Scott Barber and what Davis said in testimony in the Raychele Sterling Case, which may not have made the City Attorney Greg Priamos look so good.
COUNCILMAN PAUL DAVIS
When you view the overall pictorial of both Councilman, you cannot rule out a conspiratorial aspect by some of the usual suspects. Just weeks ago Chief Financial Officer Brent Mason presented to City Council and spoke on how we will have a budget shortfall. They continue to frivously spend tax payer monies in an effort to support their enormous egos and defend there inadvertent liabilities. We must also ask the question, who are the players and what could they have to lose.
Just in September of 2012, City Manager Scott Barber decided to take his City Manager hat off and play Council by authorizing a change order of $2.5 million without council authority for the Fox Performance Plaza. He brought the issue to Council and basically appeared they would rubber stamp the idea, after-the-fact. Had this type of shenanigans been done before by the prior City Manager? The City Manager’s discretionary spending cap is at $50,000.00, anything over that amount must go to council. Certainly violated the Charter Amendment. What made Barber think that he had the authority to act as an elect and ferret it out without them? A complaint should have been filed against him with Human Resources, and Council should have fired him immediately.
Though the Supreme Court stated that “a special edition created and sent to would-be voters, specifically because of the upcoming election,” is improper campaign activity. I guess Priamos does what is necessary for the greater good of those who feed off city revenues.
In both the Davis and Soubirous case, the PE reports that all emails have been requested in which referenced Barbers “employment status.” This is telling; what happened between these two council people and the City Manager? Another question, could it have been the connection between families which include Councilman Mac Arthur, Mayor Bailey and Albert Webb, of Webb Engineering? Webb contracts were brought in the Raychele Sterling Case.
We certainly would now have to consider if these city employees filed they’re complaints on the they’re own volition, or did they have encouragement, or were they promised promotion? Plausible denial by some of the usual suspects may give us more thought to a theoretical conspiracy in this matter.
Is it because Woody and Paul sing the same tune and dance the same steps? DA Mr. “Z” obviously is enjoying himself! Maybe we have something here folks, the dance styling”s of Woody & Paul…
