Moorlach will support Carona recall
November 6th, 2007, 1:19 pm · 3 Comments · posted by PEGGY LOWE
Just talked to Supe John Moorlach, who only had two votes on his plan to ask voters to give the board the power to remove elected officials.
I asked Moorlach for his reaction to Sheriff Mike Carona’s word this morning that he will step aside for 60 days:
“Close. No cigar,” Moorlach said.
Moorlach stuck to his call for Carona to resign and short of that, he said he would support a recall. He won’t lead it, but he said there are some “fine citizens” who might. It would be an uphill climb — they would need the valid signatures of more than 150,000 registered voters.

Just more proof that Moorlach is out to get Carona at any cost, whether he’s guilty or not.

To News crews, Board of Supes, Todd Spitzer, and all concerned,
I am very disappointed that a Sheriff can pick his own Interim Sheriff. That is what this is. Taking it out of the hands of the Supes, and putting it on the Sheriff whose record is already tarnished. I had to work today or I would have been there in a heart-beat. I am just very disappointed that Orange County is going down is a way like we have never seen it before. I have spoken before on these issues and was I not right? I guess it if it does not happen then it will be a re-call. Trust me that now will not be hard to get. They should have put Lt. Bill Hunt back to full duty and put him in there as interim for our men and women in uniform. Very disappointed in the ones that voted against it.

Dear Friends, Family,& Radio and News,
Orange County California awoke this morning to news of our sheriff being indicted on federal corruption charges. This was news to most but long wished for and expected by many.
Deputy Lieutenant Bill Hunt, a good man, ran against Mike Carona a little more than one year ago. By a fraction of a voting percentage, Bill Hunt nearly forced the sheriff into a run-off. Voters new something was wrong with the sheriff, but not quite enough, then!
Please join me in suggesting the Orange County Supervisors appoint Bill Hunt as our interim Sheriff. His track record and opposition to Carona is timely, needed, and healing.
If there was ever a time to cut / paste / and forward, this is one………
