Let’s hope this is a bellweather for change; local, County, State and Federal.
Liberty Bell!!!!!
It’s a shame that only local Govt. to be charged with stealing taxpayers money is the city Govt. when the county of L.A. through Mayor Tony Reconquista and Congresswoman Roybal-Allard gives $ millions of tax dollars to criminal illegal alien invaders with cash and welfare payments and Sanctuary City status.
It’s just a case of the bigger crooks swallowing up the smaller crooks, just like we saw happen with the bank bailouts at the Federal level. A crook is a crook but in politics the biggest crooks are rewarded.

But having said that, would have liked to have watched the battering ram event....
This is one time when you could hope that the guy made a “furtive movement” in front of the SWAT team.
Hopefully this will help Cooney beat the wacko from San Fran for A.G
It;s a GOOD day for the residents of Bell!!
Anger is one thing but the law is another. These charges won’t stick. Like the gut said , makin a lot of money is not a crime.
I predict these guys skate.
Bring back tar and feathering.
It is not that they took the money but how they tried to hide that they got it that will get them convicted. The large unpaid loans will also be a problem. They also have the election fraud to look into. If they prove this group tried to hide the election from the public that made Bell a charter city then everything they did following the election could be fraud.
So, I’m going to assume (under the style guidelines for MSM) that because there is NO party affiliation listed for these politicians who are under arrest, that they must be Democrats, correct???
Would have saved a lot of money in the end....
According to John & Ken on KFI-640 AM, the defendants cannot use assets that they may have improperly received as collateral for their bail.
This should make things very interesting!
Mayor Oscar Hernandez (and his wig)
Angela Spaccia
Victor Bello
Teresa Jacobo
Luis Artiga
George Mirabal
George Cole
Bell city officials
Robert Rizzo’s bail is $3.2-million dollars!
He and the others who were arrested cannot use any of their illicit gains as collateral for their bail either!
Why do they look so damn happy in those mug shots? They got away with something?
“I predict these guys skate.”
Don’t bet your pension on it. Do you even have any idea of the facts of this case?
The bad days of corruption came because they were not paying attention? Was noboy watching? Was there no local blog?
