Pacific Grove Lane resident James Long and his son have a lengthy history of fighting, Nyunt said, and officers have been called to their home on multiple occasions. The altercation leading to the arrest began Feb. 17, when the two started arguing and threatening each other.
“The dad told him he had one minute to pack his bags, or he would throw his belongings out of the house. The son got mouthy with him, and they got into a fight,”
Nyunt pointed out parents who have trouble with their kids should take advantage of resources, such as counseling, rather than acting out against them. “Even though your kid is unruly, you can’t just say, ‘Get out of here — I’m not going to take care of you,’” he said. “You can’t just abandon your kid.”
Sex Offenders Can Ask For Your ID In P.G.
So, who is Miller referring to in that last sentence?
Five of seven council members, though, said the ordinance had too many bugs, including that it placed too much burden on employers and was not easily enforceable.
“I see that we want to protect individuals … it’s our obligation,” councilman Ken Cuneo said at the meeting. “I don’t know if by adding another layer of law it will make anybody safer in doing so.”
However, Miller told The Pine Cone this week that he and Garcia, both of whom voted for the ordinance last week, haven’t given up on it yet.
Miller told the council why he and Garcia drew up the ordinance, which he said would help officials “protect people who can’t protect themselves.”
“The reason this came up is for years there was somebody in town,” Miller explained, “who I knew factually would ask for identification for purchase of alcohol … and show up at their houses after taking their addresses from their driver’s license.”
Monterey Accused Of Violating HIPAA Rules In Raid
If HIPAA rules do not apply to marijuana sellers, how can it be legally called a medicinal drug?
“He opens up a HIPPA labeled file,” says Jhonrico Carrnshimba, a MyCaregiver director. “He sees a number of files in it at this point they should close the file. They shouldn’t have these files open.”
But, Fred Cohn from the City of Monterey defends their actions.
“Medical marijuana establishments are not governed by HIPAA,” says Cohn. “The only reason that those records were compromised is because they continued to operate illegally against the court order.”
Paralyzed P.G. Teen Reflects On DUI Accident
Besides therapy, she’s talking a lot to high school students just like her, only a year ago.
”Instead of sitting here feeling sorry for myself I want to get out there and help others because I wish someone would have helped me. I wish someone would’ve pulled me out of the car, but we all make decisions and we live with them, all of us live with them everyday of our lives,” said Hill.
Medicinal Pot Not Affecting Mexican Drug Wars
The bloody battles continue south of the borders.
Fifteen years after voters approved Proposition 215, permitting medicinal marijuana use, strong varieties like those produced in Northern California’s so-called Emerald Triangle dominate the market. Weaker Mexican pot, once the weed of choice for the 1950s Beat generation and the 1960s flower children, is less popular, according to drug policy experts and law enforcement officials.
But overall, sales of Mexican marijuana continue to earn that nation’s violent drug cartels as much as $2 billion a year.
No Criminal Charges Against Le Normandie Owners
How about civil charges?
The Monterey County District Attorney’s Office told The Pine Cone that it has dropped its criminal investigation into Christine and Francis Richard over allegations — by people in at least three California counties — the French couple solicited loans from them but didn’t pay them back.
In February 2010, The Pine Cone interviewed numerous former customers of the Richards who said the couple asked them for loans — as much as $15,000, according to one patron.
But after giving them money, the customers alleged the Richards never repaid them, even after making promises to do so. Several more people contacted The Pine Cone after the article was published and made similar allegations.
Seaside Woman Drives Into Insurance Office
And the office does not have a drive-through option.
A woman driving a Subaru SUV crashed straight through the front wall of a Pacific Grove insurance office Wednesday afternoon but miraculously managed to avoid killing or seriously injuring anyone.
At about 1:30 p.m., Galina Griffiths of Seaside was heading West on Lighthouse Avenue when she attempted to park her Subaru Forester in a diagonal parking space in front of the Tom McKinney State Farm Insurance office at 716 Lighthouse Ave.
It’s not clear what caused the Subaru to travel into the office, but Figueroa said some drivers use their left foot to brake while using their right foot to control the accelerator.

Pot Shop In Contempt?
Assistant City Manager Fred Cohn said the city filed notice Tuesday requesting the court ask MyCaregiver “to explain why it should not be held in contempt.”
Friday’s search, he said, turned up marijuana and documents indicating marijuana transactions were taking place at the co-op at 554 Lighthouse Ave.
Attorney Richard Rosen, who represents MyCaregiver co-founder Jhonrico Carr-Nshimba, said the city brought the contempt action “based on small technicalities about zoning and business licenses. It is completely ignoring the big issue, which is why is it legal everywhere else in California except Monterey?”
