I have been a lifelong supporter of law enforcement and victims
of crimes. My record speaks for itself. I have volunteered for the
Hollister police, for several agencies that work with juvenile
delinquents and of course the Red Cross.
I have been a lifelong supporter of law enforcement and victims of crimes. My record speaks for itself. I have volunteered for the Hollister police, for several agencies that work with juvenile delinquents and of course the Red Cross. I have been watching and reading with interest as the DA has made mistake after mistake in working with victims.
I read about the victim of a stabbing that said, “On Sept. 22, Lopez spoke at the sentencing hearing for Galvan, Mendoza and Mendoza to express his displeasure with his three assailants receiving an offer to plead guilty to felony assault charges instead of them standing trial for attempted murder, the crime with which they were originally charged. ‘I feel as though I’ve been victimized twice. Once by them and a second time by the district attorney’s office,’ according to a translation of what Lopez said in court.” Free Lance, Friday, Oct. 10, 2003
Then so much came out on March 17 at the board meeting, about the man Sarsfield having a personal grudge against so many attorneys. Then Mr. Sarsfield loses an attempted murder charge in his grand jury case. All that and more shows this guy needs to go back to Salinas.
But now I am really MAD. That Mr. Sarsfield has taken the couch from the victim-witness room and put it in his room. Mr. Sarsfield, you have a couch in your house; give the victims and the children of victims a comfortable setting, that couch is not for you, it’s for the victims of this county. You should be ashamed of yourself.
