I’m not sure from reading this what exactly is alleged.

I hate to see it when an officer goes bad, and a guy at this level is so much worse. This will just tarnish the good people in an honorable, tough and necessary profession.

To the good police officers out there, good for you. I salute you.

Of course the MSM has to mention that he is a Republican.

I think they are out to get Mike Corona. I hope he can fight this/ and that it is bogus. He is a very clear=thinker, a manly man who says what he thinks. Obviously he has offended some. I hope this is trumped up AND that he fights it. I’d love to see him in California politics. (Any locals who know more about this? I’m in LA).

Their treasurer Chriss Street may be next. Street sure did a job on the people of Elba, AL and Dorsey Trailers.

the 52-year-old sheriff, who only five years ago was widely seen as a rising star in California Republican Party politics.

If he was a RAT, it would be excused.

But even as he gained attention in the political realm, Carona was
coming under attack from critics who accused him of improper management
and ethical lapses.


If the charges are factual, the major crime Carona is guilty of is...
thinking he could get away with the stuff Democrats do all the time.

I hope Carona convincingly "beats the rap".
He was a good "frontman" for the effort to track down that killer
of the little girl a couple of years back.

Somebody needs to write a book on all of the scandals surrounding Carona. Jaramillo, Haidl. Then the guy who got the CCW and used his gun to threaten somebody on the golf course. Another gun that showed up in the possession of the Uppsula Mafia guy that crashed his Ferrari. I can’t remember them all, but there is lots of great material to work from.

"... particular to allegations that he had issued badges and concealed-weapons permits to campaign contributors without proper training or background checks"

And this would make them more dangerous than the proper trained people we see everyday in the news?

The smoke detectors have been (figuratively) going off for years around Carona. That many chose not to see the fires that were always burning around him was a deliberate act — a few were in cahoots with him, and the rest were scared of him. And it’s not like many of his misdeeds haven’t been right there in the press for all to see......and, having said that, what’s that old saying about “the tip of the iceberg”?

For anyone who thinks Carona is getting the shaft, just look at what the rest of the rats in his pack are doing as they scurry around trying to cut deals as they stand in line to testify against each other. And from Carona’s legion of supporters.....we’re not hearing a peep. There’s a good reason for that, of course....just because they chose to close their eyes to his shady dealings didn’t mean they didn’t know what was going on. All they could do was hold on and hope that a real investigation would not take place.
