State Senator Abel Maldonado said he’ll consider proposing a bill that would prevent registered sex offenders from working in liquor stores and other businesses where they can check IDs and have access to customers’ personal information.
“Allowing registered sex offenders to view a person’s driver’s license, thereby allowing them to obtain important contact information like the person’s address, is extremely dangerous,” Maldonado said.
Maldonado made the comments to The Pine Cone after learning that registered sex offender and liquor store worker Thomas Pollacci, 49, was charged with three felony counts of rape stemming from an April 2008 incident. Pollacci’s family owns Ron’s Liquors in Pacific Grove, and he has worked there for years.

Senator Considering Law That Would Bar Sex Offenders From Seeing Your Personal Information
was told by a friend of a friend that Tom threatened his then girlfiend (who is actually married), “I will rape your daughter” if she didn’t do what he wanted her to do!! This guy needs to be stopped!!
here say again!!! let the courts handle it its not up to the public to be judge and jury or to prosecute
How did you get that picture? & oh, do let us know what it says, under, Offenses.
Cowgirl, while it is up to the judicial system to determine criminal wrongdoing, the court of public opinion seems to have already ruled. In American courts, the accused is entitled to a jury of his peers. Outside of the courts, local society tends to dictate an individual’s status, right our wrong. There appears to be substantial first and second hand testimony that Tom P. has been engaged in a pattern of sexual abuse. While it is unfortunate that his family has suffered because of the allegations against him, it is not reasonable to request that everyone affected keep his or her testimony silent until the outcome of the trial.
Qweeker
Tom P. was convicted of sexual assault, perhaps the result of a plea bargain.
Cowgirl is in Lovee with Tom. Go to his house and handg out and get out of here
I for one am soooooo happy this bill might pass. Another pat on my back. Thank you
the court of public opinion that’s right Qweeker its only a OPINION which is BS so keep it to your self all you want is to be in on something you know NOTHING about and as for the First and Second Opinion’s of whoever why are they only opinion too and as far as going away not a chance
One reason I don’t like his folks is because in my opinion, they probably paid for his bail & his past & present legal defense. Also, just who do you think raised him? They share some of the blame, thus some of the shame. Boycott, send them a message.
that’s Right it is only a Opinion,SO every convicted person you want the family and friends to pay for someone else’s crime…. nice good luck with that one
If there were separation betwixt them, I would have to agree with you, but that family is tightly integrated, they know what each other is up to. Who do you think paid TP’s wage? His dad. As it happened at a business, they can file a civil suit against it. Who’s going to pay that? The business owner.
I wonder if he gave the girls free horse rides?
Cowgirl, are you by any chance related to Tom?
not a chance
Cowgirl, perhaps you have a “soul” connection with him?
Cowgirl, You are right, lets let the wheels of justice determine his guilt, as the case may be, Maybe no one was raped, Perhaps all the accusations of all the woman who claim they have been abused by this man are false. It is unfortunate that you are not more articulate….You are not really in a position to defend Tom, as your command of the english language is poor at best. You, Cowgirl have “balls”, and my respect. Love, Qweeker
I think cowgirl is probably from a third world country.
Perhaps, let her speak for herself. Qweeker
Cowgirl is a bitch and I love her, Qweeker
Courts don’t decide, a jury of his peers do. Let’s all be on his jury, you too cowgirl. When he gets out of prison they have to let him live in this area.
what ever Handy I sure hope you don’t vote in the country
you are a very sad individual i pray that you never see the inside of a courtroom OOOPs maybe you should good luck with that
Cowgirl, cowgirl. cowgirl! I hope they show Tom the same respect in prison that he showed his dates, Ouch! Thank you sir, may I have a date rape drug?
We all know where this is going. Tom is going to do some time. The D.A. would not have filed if she thought that Tom was going to kick it at home again.
Serialist. Ugh, chew on this CG: http://www.montereyherald.com/local/ci_11983247
chew on this handy Andrew did it again for Tommy good job.
you all have something to say don’t ya!!! not much when its in his favor again…..
