Escondido sex offender tries to register
Officer Teresa Ruiz asserted that Juan Dolorier knew that he in fact had an appointment on November 19, but Dolorier phoned in that day and pretended to be confused-- this because he wanted to delay becoming a registered sex offender -- a status which goes on forever in the State of California.

Shyrehl Wesley leaves best friend's body on Twin Oaks Valley Rd.
Sheffah Chevis admitted to being an accomplice to the murder, in a deal with the prosecutor she pleaded guilty to one count of voluntary manslaughter. Part of the deal was that she would testify, truthfully, against her former lover, Shyrehl Wesley. Prosecutor Keith Watanabe released a statement after Sheffah Chevis was sentenced, on January 7, 2019: "Judge Monroy sentenced her to 6 years in state prison, the middle term for Voluntary Manslaughter. The courtroom was full of her family, friends and supporters. Sadly, nobody was there for the victim, D’Angelo Charon."

Necks and Chicks
Long ago, the area was known as Tia Juana, which translates as "Aunt Jane." Sometimes it was referred to in the possessive, as in, "I'm going to TJ's" or "Just got back from Tia Juana's." And I remember seeing a map, when I was a small girl, at that time the area was still designated on that map as Tia Juana. Perhaps there was a purposeful change to the new name Tijuana, because of a persistent rumor that the name Aunt Jane's was a euphemism for an area of brothels. Just saying.

You might not want a neighbor like Oceanside's David Herbert
The next date for David Herbert is February 8, 2019, at 1:30 p.m. in department 21 of the San Diego Superior Courthouse in Vista, California. We might hear victims' impact statements and sentencing on that date, or sentencing could get delayed again. Here is an evidence photo, a still shot from surveillance video showing Herbert backing his car out of his driveway, with the neighbor's little brown dog looking out the back window. Herbert admitted this was him, in his car, with the neighbor's dog inside, while he acted as his own attorney. There is speculation that his victims will file civil suits and pursue the cool $1 million cash he posted as bail, so he could stay at liberty after his first arrest. And public records show Herbert bought his home for $376,000 in 2012 and sold it for $553,000 in October 2017. San Diego County might want Herbert to reimburse the public defender's office for the attorney that is currently assisting him.

Escondido sex offender tries to register
Officer Teresa Ruiz asserted that Juan Dolorier knew that he in fact had an appointment on November 19, but Dolorier phoned in that day and pretended to be confused-- this because he wanted to delay becoming a registered sex offender -- a status which goes on forever in the State of California. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2019/j…— January 8, 2019 12:51 p.m.
Shyrehl Wesley leaves best friend's body on Twin Oaks Valley Rd.
Sheffah Chevis admitted to being an accomplice to the murder, in a deal with the prosecutor she pleaded guilty to one count of voluntary manslaughter. Part of the deal was that she would testify, truthfully, against her former lover, Shyrehl Wesley. Prosecutor Keith Watanabe released a statement after Sheffah Chevis was sentenced, on January 7, 2019: "Judge Monroy sentenced her to 6 years in state prison, the middle term for Voluntary Manslaughter. The courtroom was full of her family, friends and supporters. Sadly, nobody was there for the victim, D’Angelo Charon." http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2019/j… http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2019/j… http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2019/j…— January 8, 2019 9:05 a.m.

Necks and Chicks
Long ago, the area was known as Tia Juana, which translates as "Aunt Jane." Sometimes it was referred to in the possessive, as in, "I'm going to TJ's" or "Just got back from Tia Juana's." And I remember seeing a map, when I was a small girl, at that time the area was still designated on that map as Tia Juana. Perhaps there was a purposeful change to the new name Tijuana, because of a persistent rumor that the name Aunt Jane's was a euphemism for an area of brothels. Just saying. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2018/d…— December 21, 2018 8:13 a.m.

You might not want a neighbor like Oceanside's David Herbert
The next date for David Herbert is February 8, 2019, at 1:30 p.m. in department 21 of the San Diego Superior Courthouse in Vista, California. We might hear victims' impact statements and sentencing on that date, or sentencing could get delayed again. Here is an evidence photo, a still shot from surveillance video showing Herbert backing his car out of his driveway, with the neighbor's little brown dog looking out the back window. Herbert admitted this was him, in his car, with the neighbor's dog inside, while he acted as his own attorney. There is speculation that his victims will file civil suits and pursue the cool $1 million cash he posted as bail, so he could stay at liberty after his first arrest. And public records show Herbert bought his home for $376,000 in 2012 and sold it for $553,000 in October 2017. San Diego County might want Herbert to reimburse the public defender's office for the attorney that is currently assisting him. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2018/d… http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2018/d…— December 15, 2018 5:19 a.m.
