Deborah King will stand trial in the death of Joel Woods, who died after he was struck by King’s SUV as he picked up his son at Pacific Grove Middle School.
Toxicology reports described at the hearing showed that King, 52, had traces of eight different drugs in her system at the time of the accident on Sept. 2, 2008.
She had prescriptions for seven of them, and most were at “therapeutic levels.” The other drug was a small quantity of THC, a chemical found in marijuana, which could have entered her system weeks earlier.
Officer John Purdam, the first to respond to the accident, said he was told by a witness that King nearly rear-ended her at the Highway 1 exit onto Monterey-Salinas Highway moments before she crashed into Woods’ truck, which was parked at the curb outside the school at 835 Forest Ave.
A second witness told Purdam that she saw King’s vehicle drifting out of its lane and weaving through traffic as it approached the school.

Short Term Rentals Approved, Taxes On The Way
Tax the realtors – I like it.
The council unanimously voted to approve an ordinance reversing the ban on short-term rentals, which the city hopes will generate at least $200,000 in revenue each year.
The new ordinance requires landlords to obtain a license from the city and pay a 10 percent transient occupancy tax in order to rent out their units for less than 30 days at a time. The ordinance puts homeowners in line with the city’s hotels and inns.
“The revenue generated from the license fees and [transient occupancy tax] will help pay for a code enforcement officer,” Pacific Grove city manager Tom Frutchey said.

CHASE That Bird Poop Off
Among all this Global Warming pseudo science Chase makes no mention of stopping the pollution of environment by it’s own practices..
Chase employs this anonymous pair to pressure wash the exterior of the building in the early morning. All the rinse water goes right down the storm drain.
A true caring business in the community would capture the run-off and dispose of it properly.

Lynne Nicole Feurer Sentenced To Six Years
Teacher gets half of the expected 11 years detention at most.
After listening to more than a dozen people speak on Feurer’s behalf, Judge Larry Hayes said her positive contributions to society outweighed the aggravated circumstances of the crime that would have called for the maximum sentence of 11 years in prison.
Feurer, 66, was charged with murder in the death of 80-year-old Joseph Francis Cupita and could have been sentenced to life in prison had she been convicted at trial. She pleaded no contest to voluntary manslaughter in October.
