Star Search – for the OCSD – The Final Episode Set

Star Search – for the OCSD – The Final Episode Set

Message sent to OC Board of Supervisors - Message received?


June 3, 2008

Although the process used by the Orange County Board of Supervisors to winnow down the number of candidates to replace much maligned OC Sheriff Michael Carona was at best flawed, the final two candidates represent not necessarily the best of the field, but not necessarily the worst, either.

Wit the fact that no OCSD insiders remain standing, but we are surprised that LA Sheriff’s Cmdr. Ralph Martin got only two votes, whereas Sandra Hutchens, a former division chief with the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department is a finalist – where is Simon Cowell (American Idol judge), when you need him? At least the supervisors’ vote is a matter of public record, whereas the delegate system used in Coto de Caza is Uber-Secret!

How the OCBOS voted – Not as bad as we feared, not as good as it could be- Martin ONLY two votes?
