This horrible incident shocked a neighborhood today.
A young girl, walking in her own neighborhood, was attacked and sexually assaulted outside at 6 a.m.
From one reader: "I'm sure you have heard already about the young woman who was
assaulted in our neighborhood. The area where she was attacked is
about 2 blocks from where we live. The residents have been asking for
better police presence forever but we never get anywhere."
The attacker is described as being about 5-foot-8, medium build with spikey hair. Police say he was Hispanic, but judging the fact that both Carlton from "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air," and Cameron Diaz are both Hispanic, that's not really helping me out.
If you know ANYTHING, call the West Covina Police Department at (626) 939-8557, or the anonymous tip line at (626) 939-8557.

Case Closed
Looks like Carlos Thrasher won't be facing jail time after all.
That's got to be a relief. Also in this story it claims our Mad Scientist Steve Herfert was also investigated by the DA's office for conflict of interest. Where was the media on THAT one? When Roger Hernandez was investigated, and no charges were filed and the case thrown out, the local press treated it like Watergate!
Oh well. That was a few years ago. Maybe their staff was beefier or better or both. Who cares?
What I do care about is booze... Watch out for the second post on that subject later in the day.

A Moment of Silence
It's not like me to post more than once a day, but this warranted it.
Though we all have our grievances from time to time, and we bitch and moan about things over which we have no or little control, something like the death of this poor woman puts things in perspective. She doesn't live at all far from me and I think that could have easily been MY wife and I was the husband coming home to find the haunting sight of flashing police lights in front of my home to be told she was gone.
It could be any of us.
