Most people, after having been nabbed committing trespass and theft would at least lay low for a respectable period of time. But Paulette Marshall Chaffee, the former carpetbagging sign thief who quit the Fullerton City Council race less than a year ago is not respectable. She has decided to run for the Orange County Board […]
Chronic Failure
Homing The Homeless Via The Illuminati
The Voice of OC has a detailed story about how our city council approved giving half a million bucks to something called the Illumination Foundation to acquire and operate a homeless shelter somewhere in Fullerton. As usual Jennifer Fitzgerald and Jan Flory pretended to care about the fact that the public has not been informed […]
A Disturbing Story…
The cops always ask us, when we dare to criticize their unlawful, corrupt,or incompetent behavior: who are you going to call when you need help? Sometimes the question evolves into a statement: I hope we’re gonna be there when you need us. Then it always comes across as a thinly veiled bit of […]
The Bullshit of “Anticipated Litigation”
California’s Brown Act specifically enumerates when public agencies can meet in secret (Closed Session, they call it) away from the prying eyes of the nuisancy public that pays for the whole show. One of these exempt categories is “litigation,” in which secrecy is deemed to be okie-dokie. The problem is that government agencies, when given […]
Oops, They Did It Again
Uh oh. Another sexcapade courtesy of the Fullerton Joint Unified High School District. A few weeks ago we learned of the fun hijinks of FPD Pervy Peeping Policeman Jose Paez deployed on FJUHSD campuses as a “resource officer” which, if you think about it, if a pretty funny title for this creep. Yesterday, news outlets […]
Priorities, Priorities…
Today the Voice of OC has outlined Tuesday’s Fullerton City Council vote to give the Culture of Corruption a vote of confidence. That’s right, Friends the police department with the worst corruption record in Orange County is getting a general pay raise. A big one in fact. First we get to hear the obligatory boohoo […]
Fullerton Cops Label Camera Data Wrong 60% of the Time
It was bad enough when we learned that Fullerton Officers had (have?) no oversight in how they themselves are allowed to categorize videos and schedule them for deletion. Do something wrong like the litany of SB1421 criminal cops? Just change the category to delete the videos and nobody is the wiser. It was worse that […]
The Consortium of Corruption
Friends, an environmental symbiosis exists in nature when two organisms interact in a way that is mutually beneficial. In the course of human organizational activity we see such symbioses frequently. In the nasty intersection of government and politics such relationships are depressingly common. And nowhere can we see this operation in better form than in […]
The Doug Chaffee Experience, Kindness Edition
Just in case you were still wondering about his competence and priorities, our Supervisor, Doug “Bud” Chaffee has helped out with his latest insipid e-mail. The latest installment invites nominations for something called a “4th District Kindness Award.” No, I am not making this up. Here it is: Now coming from a dyed-in-the-wool SOB like […]
Fullerton School Board Ignored Issue of Campus Police Pervert
For those of you paying attention to the story of Perv Cop Paez, I’ll direct your attention to some correspondence with the Fullerton Joint Union High School Board of Trustees from back in December 2018 when rumors of this story first came to light. This is an email a friend of ours sent to each […]
Remember When Fullerton Tried to Sue us for Exposing The FPD Perv?
‘member when Mayor Jesus Silva and Mayor Pro-Tem Jennifer Fitzgerald looked the other way when the City Attorney’s office, at the behest of City Manager Ken Domer, threatened us with civil and criminal prosecution for telling you about the FPD School Perv? I ‘member.
Fullerton Officer Paez Charged with Filming up 16yo Student’s Skirt

From the District Attorney’s Press Release: FORMER FULLERTON POLICE SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICER CHARGED FOR VIDEOTAPING UP HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT’S SKIRT SANTA ANA, Calif. – A former Fullerton Police Department school resource officer has been charged with secretly photographing and videotaping up the […]
Erection Dysfunction
If someone takes the time to review the history of Fullerton over the past forty years, one thing becomes shockingly clear: when it comes to building things, maintaining things and planning for things, the City government just can’t do much of anything right. And yet over this long history, the City and the public […]
Silva’s Escort
Readers of this blog might think I have a hyper-obsession with toll road violations. Not really. It’s just that toll road violations seem to bring out the very worst and embarrassing moments in government. Nine times out of ten, the car shouldn’t have been using the toll roads to begin with. Such is the case […]
Hanger 21 is Still Illegally Operating at the Airport
Back in 2017 the city of Fullerton kicked Air Combat USA out of the airport and after a legally questionable bid process the city leased the hanger to a company called Hanger 21. We covered this briefly HERE and HERE. Here’s some of the backstory from the City Manager himself: “The problem is that regardless […]
Follow the Bouncing Bureaucracy
One of the biggest problems with government is that it’s slow to react and generally stupid in those reactions. This is largely because governments are run by incompetent bureaucrats who refuse to learn lessons from their own mistakes. Let’s look at some complaints lodged against city appointed commissioners and how the city reacted to those […]
Why Keep Threatening Us?
For every problem that isn’t a nail, there’s a moron ready to swing a hammer. 20 Days ago FFFF got another threatening letter from the City that said if we don’t stop reporting news and telling the public the truth about what’s actually happening in their town, apparently there will be consequences. We told them […]
Return to the Pinewood Stairs
Follow us back, gentle Friends, as we revisit the construction horror show known as The Pinewood Stairs. It’s been a year-and-a-half since we frightened you with the design and construction fiasco of the Pinewood Stairs at Hillcrest Park. FFFF photo documented the sorry project even before the embarrassing party the city threw for itself since the […]
More Good Times; Stompin’ at the Slidebar
A couple of weeks ago Jeremy Popoff’s Slidebar employees and clientele provided more examples of the sort of high class behavior favored by our city council and particularly our lobbyist/councilcreature Jennifer Fitzgerald who has been running cover for Popoff for years and years. You may recall that Slidebar has never gotten the required CUP even […]
Gas Tax Trough Slurpers Support Newman
A Friend just forwarded me a press release from Josh Newman’s campaign to get back his old job – the one he got recalled from after gas taxing his constituents, rich and poor alike, in order to support the State’s featherbedded transportation bureaucracy and infrastructure lobbyists. The gas tax was nothing other than a free-up […]
