Mayor-Turned-Child-Sex Offender Arrested Near School for 3rd Time
Former Pittsburg, California mayor Marcelino Vasquez a convicted sex offender was arrested outside a school last week for the third time in five months.
Pittsburg police Capt. Ron Raman stated that Vasquez was arrested near Marina Vista Elementary last week, according to the Contra Costa Times.
Vasquez was a rising political figure until 1972 ,when he was convicted for lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years of age. The Times reports that Vasquez served on the Pittsburg City Council and took a turn as mayor in the 1960s. After being caught for child molestation, his political career crashed.
The California sex offender database lists the date of last conviction for Vasquez as 1972; he was released in 1973. He is listed as a transient.
The former political figure has been charged repeatedly for violations related to his sex offender status, according to the Times. Charges include failing to register as a sex offender yearly with local law enforcement. Authorities indicated that he has been living in the East Contra Costa area and frequents a church near the school. However local school district officials say Vasquez has not actually come into contact with children during these occasions.
Vasquez was convicted for failing to register as a sex offender in 2013 and 2014. The Times stated that he received a 90-day sentence for each conviction.

What 40+ years on has changed, these days that is a resume enhancer for a Dem.
This is a resume enhancement for democrats. He must have been a republican.
Since his party affiliation is not highlighted in the story, he must be a Democrat.
A bullet to the head would help save kids.
Pittsburg is in the BAY AREA - where most of California’s trouble originate.
Hey! He was just following his heritage.
What's a pederast?...
....STFU Donnie
Just seeing him would be traumatic enough for many children.
His Mayoral days are long over.
I hope he recovers in a safe place, and above all, is kept away from children.
Oh, well. Just building up his Progressive resume’e.
You can say what you want, but at least pedophiles drive slowly in school zones.
Ha.... Nasty
I was going to say give it about five more years and this deviant behavior will also be considered “normal”.
Sure seems that way.
I have seen no evidence to prove otherwise. They simply need to be removed from our society forever. I'm willing to be humanitarian about it. Put them in a secure facility where they will never have an opportunity to encounter children. Maybe they can be put to work doing something useful with their lives in the meantime.
Maybe we can recruit ISIS to cut off this guy’s, er....
