    He looks like a kiddie in adult clothes. I wonder how he was able to fool his co-workers for 25 years? Is there more going on at the Sheriff’s Dept. the public needs to investigate?

    Bob I have (NO IDEA) but he could just as easily be guilty of nothing other than pissing someone off in Placer county.

    when is the last time you heard about a real live Kiddie porn guy turning himself in.

    Just Sayin.

    Placer County? He never worked there. This is a local matter that was poorly handled at best if not a curious, suspicious, delay that a citizen would not receive as they knew since January and gave him all of these months to retire on a lifetime pension via the taxpayers. He was given some really special treatment it looks like from the low charge to a cite and release at the jail and this should be a real issue in the next election for Sheriff because what was sold to the voters last time wasn’t this kind of lack of leadership.

    Wow if he wasnt how he was he would be in jail still. And the fact that he still has a pension when he was doing this on taxpayers time and equipment.
