The suspense ended early in the AG races last night, but that doesn't mean there weren't any eye-popping upsets around the state.
In Riverside County, incumbent DA Rod Pacheco -- often talked of as a future Republican AG candidate -- lost his re-election bid to Superior Court Judge Paul Zellerbach. Zellerbach took a leave of absence from the bench to run for Pacheco's job. You might remember Zellerbach as the judge who was zinged by the Commission on Judicial Performance in 2006 for refusing to leave an Anaheim Angels playoff game to take a jury's verdict in homicide case.
And in the GOP insurance commissioner primary, Brian Fitzgerald, a low-funded, relatively unknown staff attorney in the Department of Insurance, defeated favorite and former Assembly GOP leader Mike Villines in what was the statewide shocker of the night. The Sacramento Bee ran a nice piece on the then-quixotic candidate last week.
We'll have more analysis and commentary on judicial and other legal-world races later in the day, here and on therecorder.com.


Prosecutor and their investigators routinely use falsifies evidence, fraud, perjury, misrepresentation, violation of California PC, Federal, and Constitutional Laws for the purpose of framing an innocent man do so for political, economical (obtaining federal grant money, etc..), ensuring work performance statistics with false social marketing, and while enjoying absolute immunity against the poor indigent “innocent” population, despite their conducts in the Criminal Legal Process. Even the Riverside DA Rod Pecheco’s statement he made that “good prosecutors win their cases, but it takes a great prosecutor to put an innocent man in prison", is just one of the basic mantras and concepts with the Prosecutor’s Office all over the Good State of California, knowing that they have nothing to lose and everything to gain despite convicting “innocent Americans”, given the broad absolute immunity they enjoy. Who is going to arrest them and charge the state and or elected official or their investigators for obtaining a “90 plus” conviction rate, regardless of the unethical tactics and illegal practices, even if they violate state and federal laws.
