Two county resignations, one we learn about a month later on the agenda; another lawsuit against the County of Humboldt only I covered

 

Another lawsuit only I reported on and is on the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors Agenda. Delman Smith is a local family law attorney. Last, I heard he was retiring. 

If we had media in Humboldt who instead of summaring an agenda by a bot, actually worked and reported news, they would have asked why Bennett Hoffman resigned on May 8 and we find out a month later via another agenda. On the same agenda is a second resignation of the Director of Library Services.

Covering and holding government accountable and asking why we learn about uncounted votes six months later, County resignations a month later and asking the local Sheriff tough questions is just not as "important" to Lost Coast Outpost et al who "report" based on the Cal Poly Humboldt school of "journalism" and are activist "media" who get funded by Humboldt insiders and good ole boys to cover the tie dye, patchouli protesters du jour and do PR fluff pieces for government. The owners and publishers of some of the local media are good ole boys and gals. Just look at what they ignore and don't cover.

These protestors, like most other Humboldt "media", seem to have money to throw away screaming about anything than actual news that affects the daily lives and survival of taxpaying businesses and residents of Humboldt County.

Some of the so called Humboldt "media" went after me years ago. They did this before I had my blog or Facebook page  because I volunteered and was politically active. Something I had a right to do like anyone else. I just didn't parrot the accepted narrative in Humboldt County. 

So there is history. Don't dish what you can't take. The haters, anon or anon, some of the local media have disparaged me for years because I spoke up for people; because of their bias and because no one controls me. They have gone after my livelihood. They have disrespected and been dismissive of my contributions to Humboldt and they do not extend professional courtesies. 

When the other media stay silent and refuse to call out those in Humboldt who have power and authority and should be transparent; I pay the cost daily and it is more than financial. 

Are they getting threats where they have to waste time on the busiest of days documenting and filing reports with law enforcement and then spend days catching up on work and losing opportunities to earn money? Do the other media have to be constantly vigilant and become a hermit because of threats? They are not recognized; I am. I walk everywhere. I have had people come up to me at the Courthouse and harass and threaten me in middle of me working more than once. 

What most of this people have in common are their politics are left leaning and they are used to one narrative from the media and used to getting their way. After what happened to Charlie Kirk, the harassment of anyone who independently reports and is not in the progressive, woke bubble is well-documented.

I have a right to be concerned. One recent, violent threat was made specifically about my coverage about the Miranda's Rescue and due to the failure of other media to vet unsubstantiated claims. I have a police report. This person frequently comments on certain media outlets and with a real name. Typical Humboldt loser, anti law enforcement with a court case I looked up.

The chief law enforcement officer for Humboldt County is Sheriff William Honsal. He has been silent lately and out of sight. 

There are other threats made to two people  documented this week. I will not mention where; yet; but why; they were targeted for the Miranda's Rescue investigation and being associated with Shannon Miranda.

Is this how Billy Honsal protects the citizens of Humboldt County? Or is protection just selective? Do you have to be a friend of his wife's to get HCSO to do your bidding?

I won't expect Rex Bohn to speak up for me or those threatened because we are not his "buds." I don't expect any of the other useless Board of Supervisors to even have a private meeting with Billy and question him about conflicts of interest in the Miranda Rescue investigation and his failure to control the clown show that is out of control led by Jenna Moore and Jennifer Raymond. I want to know any other example specifically involving HCSO as the law enforcement agency where a group of people are harassing, doxxing, threatening people in person and on social media and thinking they dictate what HCSO and the District Attorney  does. 

People in Humboldt throw around freedom of speech and the First Amendment as an excuse to do and say whatever they want and are clueless on both, the law and journalism.
