RETURN OF SECOND LETTER OF REJECTION FROM STATE BAR AFTER PRESENTING NEW EVIDENCE AGAINST COUNTY COUNSEL GREGORY PRIAMOS.
CLICK ON IMAGES TO VIEW SECOND LETTER OF REJECTION, PROTECTING COUNTY COUNSEL PRIAMO’S ACTIONS.
Though the second letter was rejected by the State Bar with complaints against former Riverside City Attorney Gregory Priamos, the council voted at the October 20th City Council Meeting to hire an independent firm to investigate the $19.4 million in outside legal as reported in the PE. The problem was that there was no contractual agreements, which leaves a lot of splaining to do by Priamos. The vote was 6-1 with Councilman Barnyard Burnard being the only dissenting vote. Why? Good question. TMC broke this story May 21, 2012, “WE DON’T NEED NO STINK’N CONTRACTS!” Why did it take so long?
As you may know former Deputy City Attorney Raychele Sterling submitted additional information to the State Bar which included the recent Grand Jury findings and recommendations of “Dumping the Chump,” referring to current County Counsel Gregory Priamos. But on October 20, 2015 Riverside City Council will be discussing the spending by former City Attorney Gregory Priamos of over $19 million in taxpayers monies spent without a formal contract! Leaving taxpayers feeling taken by an administration who didn’t care about them.
The second paragraph contradicts itself. Hackert states that it is not a conflict of interest for Riverside County Counsel to represent county employees in a civil grand jury proceeding. He states that it does not violate Penal Code section 934. But if you read the code it states that the grand jury may, at all times, request the advice of the court, or the judge thereof, the district attorney, the county counsel, or the Attorney General. Unless advice is requested, the judge of the court, or county counsel as to civil matters, shall not be present during the sessions of the grand jury. It states nothing about representing employees as counsel to a grand jury proceeding! Therefore it appears what Priamos was advocating was to give advice to employees, but at the same time if asked, give advice to the grand jury. In this role is classic Priamos, as what was done in the City of Riverside during Ethics Committee hearings, a complete ‘conflict of interest.”
Hackert states that it is not misconduct for Mr. Priamos to ask County employees to advise his office of contacts from the grand jury, since they may be entitled to legal representation under Penal Code section 939.22. Penal Code section 939.22 states that any witness called to give testimony under oath before a civil grand jury may have counsel present on his or her behalf while he or she is testifying. The difference, is that Priamos was demanding that employees contact him if called by the grand jury. Thus violating penal code section 939.22 by not allowing an employee to choose their own attorney. But again, it’s evident by their response, that the State Bar isn’t there to protect the consumer or taxpayers, but to protect themselves. We see this time and time again. The State Bar is not there to protect the public, since their primary activity lobbying, and have already paid dearly in campaign contributions to protect their own, before they protect the public.

Well we shouldn’t be surprised when in reality the State Bar of California does nothing to protect the taxpayers, but acts for themselves as a lobbying group. The bottom line is that there are a lot of backs being oiled, buttered and rubbed..

As a result, this person, Louis G. Fazzi, Esq, in law suit against the City of Riverside, states that the City was directly to blame for the death of his wife as a result of a stroke, due to a letter Fazzi’s wife read that the property was to go into receivership. She died the next day. Does Priamos have blood on his hands? The following is a book written about the Priamos family. In the book it states, “Priamos men are known for strong minds and weak hearts.”

On the third page, prior to the prologue, she states this haunting statement…
Shyster (U.S. slang.)
A lawyer who practices in an unprofessional or tricky manner; especially. one who haunts the prisons and lower courts to prey on petty criminals.
– Oxford English Dictionary
Excerpts:
“Your lucky he didn’t kill you,” I say. If death didn’t get him in the form of an actual bullet, it could’ve gotten him from shock. Priamos men are known for strong minds and weak hearts.
“I see my father’s body doubled over the wheel. I see his chest and arms spilling out of the car, his head dangling, blood seeping out of the wet hole in his scalp.”
“This malaka in a ski mask tried to carjack me. He had a gun to the window and told me to get out of my own goddamn car.” My father slows down, hanging on to the moment as if speaking to a jury. “But I gave him the finger and backed the hell out of there.” (page xiii).
Now he carries ones and fives to slip under the g-strings of his favorite girls at the Kat Nip. (page xiii). Sounds like an excerpt from Goodfellas!
Having his tougher brother in the house balances my father my father in a way I haven’t been able to. Unlike Psycho Gil, who needs full armor and artillery, Uncle Dimitri has no understanding of physical weakness and actually tried to walk off his heart attack while it was happening. (page 138).
‘He slapped me. She kicked me in the balls.’ God knows how many times the cops came out to find one of them saying it was just a disagreement that got out of hand. From what he tells me, she’s no innocent. Those two were into some kinky shit.” (page 140).
My great grandfather died of suicide, which like other dark secrets in the Priamos family, got buried. I didn’t learn of it until well after I’d begun writing this story. (page 250).
This guy (Priamos) continues to get a paycheck, representatives of the people continue to seemingly condone employees such as he, without ever doing a proper background check.
