How many attempted arson, stalker, suspicious circumstances EPD calls you never hear about get quick response by EPD but dont make headlines?

 

Yesterday, shortly before 10 a.m., the very last EPD patrol car was leaving Recetki Park, the mobile home park located on Third Street between U and V. There were other EPD officers who responded earlier. 

EPD had a very busy day yesterday and so did I. Among the many calls EPD responded to yesterday were several court violation orders. The following information is not from EPD but other sources who told me that allegedly an ex was stalking a female tenant in Recetki Park, there was attempted arson and a gas can involved. 

I have written about the roosters and the ongoing issues with some tenants and one particular nuisance house which finally resolved after civil action by the property owner. The neighborhood is quieter with just the previous tenants gone from that one house. EPD still responds to this mobile home park or near it at least once a day and frequently patrols the area. Like most neighborhoods in Eureka, decent tenants are forced to share space with troublemakers. 

Yesterday's incident is symptomatic of the bigger problem of domestic violence and society's failure to adress repeat criminal behavior. Laws and law enforcement will never get rid of evil which is man made, man created and worsened by self serving, greedy, corrupt, entitled ursurpers who whine about crime but refuse to look at the role they play.
