State handling arrest of El Dorado County deputy DA
By Carlos Alcalá, Sacramento Bee
State attorneys have taken on the possible prosecution of Gloria Mas, an El Dorado County deputy district attorney who was arrested in July on suspicion of drunken driving.
Mas was arrested in the early afternoon of July 25 at the El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office after witnesses said she drove into the parking lot there, appearing to be intoxicated.
According to Mas’ arrest report, released by the California Highway Patrol, the attorney told a CHP officer that she consumed two vodka tonics between noon and 1 p.m. while at home for lunch and then drove to the office.
The county DA referred the case to state Attorney General Kamala Harris’ office because of the potential for conflicts resulting from prosecuting one of their own.
About 15 years ago I worked in one of the Placerville restaurant/bars that the local attorneys hung out to drink their lunch. And pursue their continuing education: liars’ dice.
dog, I was the bartender at Carlos for 19 years and my gag order is still in effect.
Hahahaha, No kidding, SkiBum! I wasn’t sure I should have been posting that, but YOU are one of the few people who knows who I am, so I’m hoping I’m safe!
lol, unlike others I do not drop dime on anonymous folks I know and I still say it’s a TJMAX.
Another victim of demon rum. So sad.
Is this the same DA in charge of the Angora fire case?
