California Bar considers ban on sex between lawyers and clients

Citing ethical concerns, California Bar had this revelation.


https://www.google.com/amp/www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-attorney-sex-ban-20161127-story,amp.html?client=ms-android-verizon

Excerpts from LA Times article:


"The nation's largest state bar association is overhauling ethics rules for attorneys for the first time in 30 years, and some lawyers are unhappy about a proposal that would open them up to discipline for having sex with clients.


"The sex ban has divided the rules revision commission, though similar restrictions are in place in other states. As of May 2015, 17 states had adopted a blanket sex ban drafted by the American Bar Assn., according to an ABA committee that looked at implementation of the group's ban."

The above issue hits home and this link somehow didn't make it in local media. The court case of David Anderson was not covered by the local media, all three trials were covered on this blog. TS covered it when a local victim approached them.

Hezekiah Allen said what is highlighted below is not indicative of "our culture" on another local online site. He must have been sleeping through the court case of Kailan Meserve, again not covered by other local media until sentencing and no one covered the Throckmorton case.


Undersheriff William Honsal was interviewed for the story below.

Excerpt:

This is an illegal industry, and it requires a lot of workers, it’s very labor intensive,” Honsal said. “If they can bring in free labor through human trafficking, they’ll do that.”

Honsal said he believes that’s the reason his county leads the state in missing person’s reports.

“We have people that call us every year and say, ‘my son or my daughter or my boyfriend or my friend went to Humboldt county to grow marijuana or to help process marijuana, trim marijuana, and we haven’t heard from them in six months… do you know what happened to them,’ and we don’t.”

Honsal said many of them are forced into slave labor, locked behind multiple gates in rugged, rural areas of the county. However, he noted sometimes victims do get away, and come forward.

“There have been cases where females have been drugged and raped and held against their will, and that… that has happened.”

Law enforcement in Cutten looking, may be closer to finding lost 14 year old

Law enforcement presence in Cutten  tonight, including a helicopter, looking for a lost 14 year old are making progress.

Hopefully, will locate her soon.

She was located by the Rescue Team shortly after 10 p.m. after the Coast Guard helicopter located her.


Press Release (11/23):

On November 22, 2016 at about 4:18 p.m. the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office received a telephone call from a 14 year old female reporting she was lost in the woods in the Ridgewood area.  The female was told to stay put and attempt to preserve her cell phone battery. Her cellular telephone was “pinged” which provided a detailed location.  Deputies responded to the area and were able to make voice contact with her, but could not physically locate her.  A PAGER 30 was initiated. A PAGER 30 is a process in which all Humboldt County Sheriff’s Posse Search and Rescue volunteers are notified that they are needed for a search and rescue in progress. The HCSO mobile command post was set up in the Berry Lane area and the US Coast Guard was contacted with a request for helicopter assistance.  Three search teams were deployed, two of which were HCSO/Posse members and one team of citizen volunteers.  The volunteer team was able to locate the female unharmed.  After about an hour it was learned that the volunteer search team and juvenile were stuck and unable to make it out of the woods.  The USCG helicopter had been on scene searching and left once the juvenile was located.  The helicopter returned by request, and at 2:14 a.m. hoisted all 3 people out of the woods.  They were then all flown to the Heli-pad located a St. Joseph Hospital.  The juvenile was treated at the hospital and later released to family. 

The Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the USCG and the citizen volunteers for their help.  It should be noted the Sheriff’s Posse Search and Rescue team is comprised completely of volunteers and operates entirely off donations at no expense to tax payers.

Now that there is an official complaint, will the City of Eureka still not look into Austin Allison?

An official complaint was filed today, see content below, and sent to Eureka City Manager Greg Sparks and Eureka City Finance Director, Wendy Howard.
An official complaint has been filed with the City of Eureka to look into whether Allison has a business license or not?


"It is my understanding that Austin Allison has a small furniture making business in Eureka. It is also my understanding that he does not have a business license. I want to make this an official complaint and have Austin Allison be required to obtain a business license for doing business within the city of Eureka. Thank You Robert L. Tuel"

I never heard back from the City of Eureka after my last inquiry. Still no word from the City of Eureka.

The City of Eureka is in a tough situation with three current Councilmembers backing Allison.

Guess the City of Eureka and the rest of the media don't think its relevant if a City Council candidate does not have a business license

Both are in custody.
