Thanks to my readers in Oxnard for sending me this info. Amazing stuff going on up there. Here is the latest.  Three Oxnard City Officials had their houses raided late Friday afternoon by the Ventura County District Attorney's Office. The people of Oxnard are standing up and demanding answers.  Is someone about to be indicted?  Looks like it could happen real soon.
The scandal rocking Oxnard City Hall has exploded once again.  On Friday afternoon the homes of three top city officials were raided by members of the Ventura County District Attorney's Office.
HOME OF OXNARD CITY MANAGER
ED SOTELO WAS RAIDED BY DA ON FRIDAY
Search warrants were served at three different locations, including ...
ASSISTANT CITY MANGER HOUSE RAIDED
Last week, both the Ventura County District Attorney's political corruption office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (that's the FBI, boys and girls) closed down Oxnard  City Hall and carted off dozens of boxes of potential evidence, including  computer files and other official finacial documents and documents from the Planning and Public Works Department.
Sotelo, Burnham and Herrera were slapped late Friday with "search warrants" at their homes located in Ventura County.
 Herrera nor Burnham were home at the time.  Herrera was at a California Association of Sanitation Agencies meeting at the time of the raid on his casa, according to reports in a local Ventura newspaper.  The DA entered Burnham's home through a window, my sources are telling me.
 
 Herrera was elected to serve as a member of the Oxnard City Council in 2002, following four years of service as a Council member previously, from 1992-1996. Herrera was elected to serve as Mayor Pro Tem from 2004-2006.  Stay tuned.  The plot thickens.  No City HALL is safe in 2010.
