D-Day in Pico Rivera: District Attorney Steve Cooley to announce if corruption charges are going to be filed against EX-MAYOR Ron Beilke on TuesDAy.

PICO RIVERA -

The Whittier Daily News has a BREAKING story this afternoon about the year long political corruption investigation by the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office against former mayor Ron Beilke.

This entire case will come to a head on Tuesday, one way or another.

Bethania Palma Marcus, a reporter for the Whittier Daily News states in an article that charges could be filed by the DA's public integrity unit on Tuesday.

Beilke, who served on the City Council from 2005 to 2009, is under investigation for allegations of election code violations. He's also accused of voting for improvements along Rosemead Boulevard that benefited his Wienerschnitzel restaurant. Both allegedly occurred during his tenure as an elected official.

Pico Rivera voters threw Beilke out of office during this past November's city council election.

Now, the ball is in DA Steve Cooley's court to see where this case will go....

Raul M said...: The case against Beilke is an open and shut slam dunk when it applies to the violation of failing to recuse himself from voting on the improvement which extended to the corner of his business - Washington Boulevard and Rosemead Boulevard. The item was on the Agenda, his vote was recorded in the minutes and not only did it happen once, but it happened twice. Yes, TWICE, Beilke voted on that improvement project. A crystal clear violation. How clear was it? Crystal! As far as the voter fraud/manipulation is concerned. How in the realm of mathematical probability do 62 Absentee Ballots get requested, then the same 62 completed Absentee Ballots get handed to the city clerk ALL ON THE SAME DAY, from the same address?

I wonder if Beilke will plead "No Contest" like he did to the FELONYof GRAND THEFT PROPERTY. Surely the DA must take into consideration Beilke's criminal past and not let this felon slip through the judicial system based on some hidden political agenda. At least Glasman is not representing him. Sure goes to show how close those political ties went!

Oh yeah, Fuentes should be shaking in his boots about now. Remember when he was investigated for improprieties when he was with mayor Hann's office? He slipped through the long arm of the law then. Maybe his dastardly deeds will catch up with him now. And how will he find a job paying him $187 THOUSAND DOLLARS for his high school education?; Monday, February 01, 2010 11:27:00 PM

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
