California Police Chief Put on Leave (California, PA Police Chief Can't Prove She is US Citizen)
The Valley Independent ^ | Sept. 10, 2010 | Chris Buckley

CALIFORNIA — Acting Police Chief Tracy Vitale has been placed on administrative leave amid questions over her citizenship.

(snip)

Vitale's attorney, Chuck LoPresti, said the acting chief was adopted in Germany by her American parents, and brought to the U.S. at age 3. She has always felt that her parents completed all of the paperwork needed to insure her citizenship.

When she applied for any police job, she has answered "yes" to the question of whether she is a citizen because she has always believed that's the case.

But in this case, someone has asked the borough to question Vitale.

LoPresti said a team of attorneys is working with the federal government to prove Vitale's citizenship.

Why would you assume she is lying?

I don’t assume she is lying at all.
Just struck by the irony that you can be removed from your job as a small town police chief if there is no proof, but not POTUS

I suspect this woman knows a lot more than what she is letting on.

Why?

It is too bad that so few know how to speak, read or write in English anymore! Journalists have to be among the worst!

How did she get a driver’s license? Also..how did she get a Social Security number? Both of those require either a passport or birth certificate to get.
I don’t buy it that she didn’t know of her questionable status.

As a person who has applied to places where a fairly detailed background was required, I had to develop paperwork to cover the important issues.

If you don’t have a birth certificate from the United States, you need to have other documentation that makes it clear you are a citizen.

During her career, she had to have undergone some background checks.

What did she use to get her driver’s license? What did she use to get her Social Security number? What did she use to get her marriage license?

How do you get to the place this woman was, without any documentation to verify she was a U. S. citizen?

It didn’t occur to her that she didn’t have the documentation? Seriously? I have a very hard time believing that.

Do you have any idea where that TEA party picture was taken at? The guy holding the sign really resembles my cousin’s husband. I know he HATES zero.

Is this Chris Buckley the son of William F. Buckley? William F. would be rolling in his grave. Not because of Chris’ sneering liberalism on immigration, but because he wrote, “insure” when he meant “ensure.” If I understood him at all, liberalism is one thing, but lousy writing is just intolerable.

I doubt that William F. Buckley’s son would be working for a small circulation bolt-on piece of the Richard Mellon Scaife empire

Why doesn’t she just tell Hawaii she was born there and then ask them for a “Certificate of Live Birth”?
