A whistleblower has emerged in the controversy of Governor Jerry Brown’s use of state oil experts to study his own family’s private land.
Jennie Catalano, a mapping specialist for the California Department of Conservation, says she faced retaliation after complaining about being required to do personal work for Brown.
It is illegal for politicians to use state resources for personal benefit. Brown says he used the same resources available to any Californian.
The Associated Press confirmed the whistleblower complaint, which is separate from the original legal action by Kern County farmers alleging that Brown colluded with oil companies over the disposal of wastewater.
In addition, State Oil & Gas Supervisor Steven Bohlen confirmed that Brown had been upset over his use of email to discuss the research on his property. In the end, Bohlen told the Los Angeles Times, he hand-delivered the report to Born.

What hypocrites these liberals are. The minute Moonbeam was told he might have oil on his property he had $$$$$ in his eyes and he wanted to cash in big time. I have no problem with that but the left is no different than anyone else when it comes to wanting an easy payday.
Ping.
What I found interesting about this article is that politicians are now reluctant to use EMAIL.
I see this spreading.
Liberal politicians believe the function of government is to enrich themselves, their families, and their cronies.
The guy is a hustler. Not only that, but he imports more income inequality than any state in the Union. If he were are Republican he be out on he arse. His biggest achievement, surviving the fruit fly invasion back in the 70s.
Gov Brown has bankrupted California. The state will likely never recover from Brown’s mismanagement.
Tomorrow, hundreds of Californians should request these same resources.
Then they moralize us on big oil. Liberals are so stupid in their worship of their Oligarche
He should not profit from his crimes and his lands should be seized, period.
The illegals he brought in are starving California of water and now this!
HE IS JUST A COMMON FELON, Arrest Him!
