The Nylander family 2024 lawsuit has settled

 




Today, the 2024 Nylander family lawsuit drama ended. The case has settled. There is a dismissal hearing on 12/14/26. I have been the only one covering this regularly for months and years. Most recent post was October 12. If you even read my last three posts; you could see this outcome.

The lesson here is hire Ms. Heather Burke and Mr. Dustin Owens because Cyndy Day-Wilson's clients paid her a lot of money and got nothing.




Christopher Holloway arrested for attempted murder and domestic violence

Christopher Daniel Holloway was arrested yesterday afternoon by Eureka Police Department for PC 664/187(a) attempted murder and PC 273.5(a) domestic violence.


It is back as business with usual for Rex

 


Humboldt County First District Supervisor Rex Bohn's truck was back in front of the 5th street entrance of the Courthouse on Sunday. The truck was there when I walked by at 9:56 a.m. yesterday It was gone by 11:18 a.m. when I was near the Courthouse again. Rex does park in that spot during weekdays.  Certain people from the County have access to parking in the secured basement of the Courthouse but I have always seen Rex park on 5th street except the one day when he was on I street.

Usually on weekends, the only ones in the Courthouse are HCSO and anyone working at the DA's office so less chance of Rex potentially violating any County policy? If he did; who would know?



I have reached out to the CAO's office and HR's office and asked if any of this information was released to other media and in the PRA above, I want the same information. I have never received a response the same day I filed a PRA so if the County will be selective in responding to me, I will add that to my documentation.

I told the County CAO's office and HR don't need to confirm the authencity of the email sent to Rex. The County of Humboldt has used Kramer Workplace Investigations in the past when Second District Supervisor Bushnell was investigated and Rex was investigated the first time. You can search coverage of those posts for free on google or via the search feature on this  site.

Had I received information the same day I put in a PRA, I would have had a post up right away despite what my daily workload is and I am one person. That is the difference between me and other local media.

These investigations by the County cost a chunk of money. Google is your friend, if you want to look up the numbers. The good ole boys and gals from the "left"  and "right" who benefit from the people like Rex they support and prop for decades have failed this County. They don't care because having their stooges in elected office works for them. 

Unless you are one of the Humboldt cabal's chosen, the Rexosaurses in office do not benefit you but they can make your life harder. Rex is the longest serving current Supervisor who has served the most terms, despite him saying more than once that he will not run again. 

While I want answers to certain questions; whether they are answered now or after the investigation is complete is not as important as knowing if if violations have occurred and Rex facing actual consequences than some meaningless dog and pony show at a Board of Supervisors meeting.

Rex has been in the Supervisor position for too long. He is rude, arrogant, has no class and is annoying AF except to his fawning clique who are online attacking anyone who points out the obvious and intimidating them into silence. In person, they are smarmy or do it behind one's back like the cowards they are.

If Lost Coast Outpost's good ole boy owners and publishers had any cajones; they would have interviewed Nicholas Jay and asked for proof of the emails and texts. LOCO isn't interested in investigating. They regurgitated a FB post which carries zero risk.

Nicholas did a better summary about Rex than the so called other local media. 

The narcissist comment is obvious as the sky being blue.



5:22 p.m. It is the end of the day and no surprise, Humboldt County CAO Elishia Hayes, Assistant CAO Sean Quincey and HR Directory Zachary O'Hanen have not responded to my email.

Dwivedi had to loan his campaign money, Will Adams contributes to Janelle Jackson

 


On October 23, Anil Dwivedi, candidate for Eureka Mayor; Ward 3 candidate Janelle Jackson and Ward 1 candidate Jason McCutcheon filed their 460s.

Besides Cynthia Olsen, Dwivedi had to loan his campaign money. For all the conservative good ole boys endorsing him and spouting off on Facebook; they don't seem to open their wallets. Dwivedi's expenses list Meta.

Janelle's 460 has several retired law enforcement or family members and local contractor Will Adams.

Jason's 460 just has  Marian Brady and Times Printing under expenses.

Maples Plumbing on a Saturday at the Humboldt County Courthouse? Jail?


Took these photos an hour ago. Jail clog or the bs piling up at the Humboldt County Courthouse? The usual miscreants throw something and vandalize outside just as they do bathrooms and courtrooms inside?

1:40 update. It isn't the jail. Pipe being replaced at the Courthouse. No water on in the entire Courthouse which means any Deputy DAs or HCSO working over the weekend can't wash hands  or flush toilets at 825 5th street.

Stella Mary Cornely now Fontenot filed a civil harassment petition against Charane Ellen Sirrine

Stella Mary Cornely filed a civil harassment petition against Charane Ellen Sirrine today. Additional protected party request is for her mother Joslyn Reese. No court date yet. Cornely has a fee waiver in the case. The TRO has not been granted yet. The TRO has not been granted yet.

I posted pages from the Ramey warrant. I looked at the court order. Made my observations and comparisons.

On page 6, Cornely wrote, "Please get this lady some help counsual/therapy. Racial hate is not okay." 

Stella Mary Cornely's petition to change her name to Stella Mary Fontenot was granted today by Retired Humboldt Superior Court Judge Marilyn Miles. Ronette Achane, mother of Teqkauri , who told EPD Officer Jayme Clark about alleged racial slurs by Sirrine has 18 court cases in the Humboldt Superior Court system with some convictions, other guity pleas dismissed later. If you want to check them, go to Humboldt Superior Court yourself.

If you don't want me to publish your email, even keeping you anonymous, don't send it to me regarding the St. Bernard's incident. I am not a therapist and I have a lot of information people have shared so don't assume what I know. Unless it is relevant to the news coverage or the alleged incident and accompanied by proof and evidence, I don't have the time nor am I interested in perspectives or daily emails with opinions and claims about either party in this incident. 

I have been about other incidents where people have told SB they will go to EPD. I have a lot more information than just the Michigan incident. 

If you do not read and check my coverage regularly; all previous posts on Sirrine's arrest and the St. Bernard's incident are accessible for free via the search feature on this site. For convenience, there are paid options.

Humboldt County cannot tell me how much money and staff time was spent on the Miranda's Rescue Investigation because they do not track or maintain that information

 



How convenient for the County of Humboldt? So no records and then department heads can just go over budget and the County whines about having no funds to fix roads but can buy dilapidated buildings.

As someone texted me, "this response is BS."

It maybe bs but County of Humboldt knows the other media who have multiple staff, more money and resources to hire a lawyer will not sue them or ask the questions I do. Certain tips are only provided to me for a reason. I have earned that trust by my reporting.

I don't have time to spare especially when the Miranda's Rescue and now this St. Bernard's incident is draining me with people emailing me because no one else will listen. Add to that every angry person in Humboldt and the online sycophants who do the dirty work of harassing and silencing independent reporting for the useless Humboldt cabal and bullies.

People need to step up, speak up and not expect me to take on their battles, get retaliated against especially when they do not contribute a dime towards my work, my expenses which include legal expenses . 

I will let my readers decide who would want to silence me and be bothered by reporting in the last 24 hours



The attacks and harassment via email had stopped. They have predictably started in the last 24 hours. I will let my readers decide who would want to silence me and be bothered by reporting in the last 24 hours.

CDAA expresses "grave concerns and strong opposition to reports that Governor Gavin Newsom is considering commuting every death sentence in California to life without the possibility of parole."

The California District Attorneys Association just issued this statement.

"When it was brought to the attention of the SB admin and Matt Tomlin, nothing was initially done. It wasn't until Sirrine's husband threatened to go to the EPD because the kid was dragged out of the shower and videotaped being dragged down the hallway with no clothes on."

 


I received this email this morning but it has been a busy day. Since there are crickets from St. Bernard's about Michigan and my question and after First District Rex Bohn's Facebook post today, while this is anonymous, I am making an exception and posting it as a comment/letter/ feedback relevant to the St. Bernard's football game incident and Rex.

Those who followed me for years know the posts I did on Matt Tomlin and the roadblocks I encountered. St. Bernard's is free to respond to my questions and anything raised by this person.

Selective enforcement, selective prosecution, selective targeting = Humboldt. Selective conflicts of interests remain hidden or ignored and are revealed here because people know I do not kow tow to the Humboldt cabal and good ole git er done boys and gals.

What Humboldt crier left out is that most mentioned also attend and are connected to the Catholic Church. Rex as a Supervisor has access and influence over Sheriff William Honsal and DA Stacey Eads. 

"Hi John, 

It's crazy and welcomed to see someone finally came forward about the incident that happened at the SB football game.  It has a lot more to do with this than just an away football game, Matt Tomlin or SB as a school.  It's about the haves and have nots.  

What your source probably didn't tell you is that in Michigan, when all of these shenanigans were happening, parents, coaches, and administrators were PLASTERED in the courtyard intoxicated while the kids were, well, being kids. This is the norm at every (well most) SB away sporting events where parents/coaches and administrators drink and the kids are always unsupervised. The day after, there are pictures online of the coaching staff, parents and admin on a drunk bus heading to the college football game.  

When it was brought to the attention of the SB admin and Matt Tomlin, nothing was initially done.  It wasn't until Sirrine's husband threatened to go to the EPD because the kid was dragged out of the shower and videotaped being dragged down the hallway with no clothes on.  I'm not a legal expert but not only is this bullying, but the video was distributed to many students in the Humboldt community and could be considered child pornorgrapy because of underage nudity.  

When the parents threatened to do this, that's why players were only suspended from playing in the next football game. No kid was suspended from school, expelled or kicked off the team.  Why?  Because they're good football players and it would impact the season.  

Tomlin, SB, and Shanahan are all part of the Humboldt Illuminati. Nothing will happen. Who has power to prosecute this?  DA Eads who is on the School Board and is an alumn.  Rex Bohn who is close to the SB One Family, Humboldt Sheriff Honsal and his connection to Tomlin, and finally multiple people on EPD who are related to the Shanahan's/Omey families.  

As you can imagine, I'm sending this anonymous because I don't want it to get back to me. "

Repeat offender, failures to appear, keeps getting arrested and still remains on mental health diversion




On 10/21, James Leach failed to appear in court. Once again; I told you so because I have covered Leach for years. These are only three posts. A bench warrant was issued for $35,000 by Humboldt Superior Court Judge Kaleb Cockrum. 

Leach was booked into jail for probation violation this afternoon.

Now that he is in custody, his mental health diversion needs to be terminated. He can agree to be committed to the State Hospital or trial dates should be set. Taxpayer dollars have been wasted on Leach for years, he has been given multiple chances. Just because it is cinvenient for the Humboldt Public Defender's Office to have mental health diversion does not mean  public safety should be jeopardized and taxpayers continue to pay for someone who refuses to comply. 

The Humboldt kumbayas can take him home and be responsible for him daily or they need to zip it because their PC enabling and lives are not affected yet they lecture those at risk and think money grows on trees.

Thank you to this reader, the employee at the Courthouse and HCSO Sgt. Comer


Thank you to the reader who I saw at the end of the day and who thanked me for my work, especially the Jorden Sterling/Place coverage. Thank you to the employee at 825 5th street who asked me how I was doing when he deals with a very stressful work environment as does HCSO Sgt. Josh Comer. 

Sgt. Comer does not get credit for all he does to make sure the second floor is secure and running smoothly as well as supervising Courthouse security. There is nothing that goes on that he does not know and he supports the deputies who are courtroom bailiffs.

When you have been going non stop for months and very few know what you are dealing with additionally; an act of kindness and professionalism makes the difference.

Thank you to all the strangers and some familiar faces I see who reiterate that my reporting is appreciated.
