Pollacci Parking Squirrels Only

Jordan Pollacci, 24, who is the son of convicted rapist Tom Pollacci, was taken into custody for misdemeanor invasion of privacy and felony probation violation after a man reported seeing Pollacci using a cell phone to snap photos under his wife’s dress.

PS, the KSBW URL link for it’s story is somewhat amusing calling Jordan a Pebble Beach Pervert –

What – labor unions are not welcome at labor unions?

Francisco Cerritos, who was hired by the United Farm Workers of America in 1998, alleges in a May 2 lawsuit filed in Monterey County Superior Court that the UFW broke numerous state labor laws, including failing to pay him overtime, and to provide meal breaks and itemized paychecks. He also alleges the UFW retaliated against him for helping forming an employees union within the UFW.

Rules Are For Others, Not Kampe And Frutchey

Nevermind the humans, close the beach for sea lions.

At a March 5 P.G. City Council meeting, numerous volunteers who help protect the seals urged the city to install bigger fencing to protect them. But before they even spoke, city
manager Tom Frutchey told the council that the city “will go ahead, and even without coastal commission approval, erect a more substantial barrier.” The city installed the lattice fencing not long after the meeting.

Lawsuit claims Elder was going 70 mph in a 25 zone..

The family of two women who died in a head-on collision in Pebble Beach when alleged drunken driver Stuart Elder slammed into their car after attending a food and wine event in Pebble Beach has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the driver.

On April 7, Sharon Daly, 72, and Linda Larone, 65, were killed when Elder, 30, of Pacific Grove, crashed his Cadillac Escalade into their much smaller Ford Freestyle while they were driving on Sloat Road near Bird Rock Road.

The lawsuit against Elder was filed Dec. 11 in Monterey County Superior Court by Anne Margaret Larone, Larone’s mother; Melanie Robinson, Daly’s niece; and Rhonda Dodge, trustee of the two women’s trust, according to the suit. The claim alleges Elder was negligent when he crossed over into Daly’s lane and struck her vehicle.

“Stuart Elder was negligently, carelessly, recklessly or in some other actionable manner driving the Cadillac Escalade under the influence of alcohol after spending the afternoon at the Pebble Beach Food & Wine festival,” the suit contends.

Still don’t know what led up to the deceased man.
Richard Hafner

Early two weeks after finding a man’s body in flames at the Pacific Grove golf course, police still don’t know why 56-year-old P.G. resident Richard Haffner died, and they’re continuing to treat it as suspicious.

PGPD Sgt. Jeff Fenton was dispatched to Ocean View Boulevard around 7:20 a.m. Nov. 3 on reports of a man and building on fire at the public golf course. He arrived to find the person engulfed in flames lying unmoving on the ground next to the restroom building and a fence on fire, and attempted to douse them with the extinguisher from his car

This Year’s School Tax Vote Fails

Posted on by

Lots of taxes passed for ‘education’ and all I can see is parking lots and football stadiums.

Measure G Trash

In Pacific Grove, residents failed to pass Measure G, the Pacific Grove Unified School District-backed proposal that asked taxpayers to pay about $30 per every $100,000 of their assessed home value for tech devices and programs for the district’s schools.
But the measure, which had the support of the Monterey Peninsula Taxpayers Association, fell short of the 55 percent it needed to pass, receiving 2,030 Yes votes (51.51 percent) to 1,911 No votes (48.49 percent).
Backers had said the funds would have been collected for 20 years in a series of short-term, low-interest bonds and would generate about $27.8 million for the district to purchase computers, electronic tablets — such as iPads — update security cameras, and implement statewide technology requirements for testing and learning.

Rod Herndon Dies While Working At P.G. High

Rest in peace.

Rod Herndon reportedly died of a heart attack.
According to police, a passerby noticed Herndon lying under the scoreboard behind the team room near the west end of the retaining wall at the south end of the field but thought he was resting. “After approximately 30 minutes, the person decided to check on the subject after noticing the body had not changed positions,” the officer wrote.

According to several obituaries about Herndon, he was a Marine who served in Vietnam, was married to Elaine Herndon for 33 years, and had one son, Andrew, who is a police officer in New Mexico. Services were held for him this week, and he will be interred in the San Joaquin National Cemetery

Mad Deer

Buck didn’t want to stay in the car or become venison..

She said the animal “looked angry” as he charged the car and then hit the little Chrysler 200 — “I guess he liked it,” she said — shattered the passenger-side headlight and flew over it, his hooves striking a cooler in the backseat.

After the animal flipped over their heads, Tetreau was convinced he was stuck in the rear seat and thought she could hear him breathing, but by the time she slammed on the brakes and pulled over, the buck had vanished. Or, as the Pacific Grove police officer who took Tetreau’s report had written it, “the deer had fled the scene.”

“He was perfectly fine, which is bizarre to me,” she said. “I was hoping I killed it, because I would have liked to have some deer meat — it’s expensive and it’s healthy for you.”

Mvsevm Of Natural History Aborts Its History

The Mvsevm

The Mvsevm is becoming less about the natural history of Pacific Grove and more of a substainability re-education camp.

The decades-old fetus was discovered in the basement of the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History in 2011 before museum officials — uncomfortable with having it around — gave it to the city’s police department for safekeeping. The city recently donated the specimen to the university.

Both CSUMB and Monterey Peninsula College were interested in taking the specimen, which caused a minor power struggle when it was found two years ago. While former museum board member Esther Trosow argued the specimen — which had been kept in a jar of alcohol — should be kept at the museum as part of its “cultural patrimony,” Frutchey said it shouldn’t be returned because it hadn’t received “the respect it deserved.”
