Folks – this is one of the key issues of the campaign. Were it not for the rampant corruption and spiraling crime rate in Riverside County, it would likely be the top issue.

Support ICE, Fire Stan Sniff

It is simple, really. In 2014, Stan Sniff made a political decision. People on both the side of illegal aliens and American Citizens agreed his decision was politically motivated to end cooperation with ICE.

First Off – Sniff sided with the ACLU:

Immigration activists have been lobbying Sniff for months to pull the department out of the program. Sniff first announced at a June 9 (2013) immigration forum at a Riverside church that he was considering whether to end the county’s involvement.

The county has six deputies trained under 287g, Assistant Sheriff Steve Thetford said. As of July 22, they are no longer interviewing inmates, pending a final decision on the program, he said.

Sniff did indeed terminate the agreement in 2014.  Then, the article gets better:

Andy Ramirez, president of the Law Enforcement Officers Advocates Council, which supports increased immigration-law enforcement, said he was surprised by Sniff’s decision to suspend participation in 287g.

“I think it’s an effective program,” said Ramirez, a Chino resident. “It’s doing its job.”

Ramirez said there’s no reason for Sniff to study the program.

“What’s there to review?” he asked. “We need to get criminals off the street.”

Ramirez and Dolores both said Sniff’s decision may have been motivated in part by the 2014 elections.

Enter the ACLU, praising Riverside County for Stiffing ICE.

Then Sniff decides to cut “low level offenders” loose without notifying ICE and later refuses even a 48 hour hold for the worst of the worst felons.

Then we find out several examples of Illegal Alien Sex Offenders that were released by Stan Sniff and then re-offended.

Showing that his support of open borders is no fluke, Sniff said that Arizona’s Landmark Immigration Law “has a chilling effect“. On what? Illegal border crossings? Nope. Stanley echoed left-wing talking points about people being less likely to cooperate with police.

To this day, there is a department-wide order to ignore immigration status of detainees and a specific order not to cooperate with ICE. Stanley’s platitudes about opposing Sanctuary State just ring false across the board.

A confidential source known to me, but requesting anonymity apparently got upset enough to come forward with specific info about Sgt Frank Schiavone and Andrew Shouse. I then followed up with others as several had information related to the subjects in this post…

You see, Andrew Shouse was notorious for drinking on duty. He was a regular parton of a local bar near the Thermal Station and could be seen as early as 2-3pm (1400-1500 for you cops and marines out there) lit up like a Christmas Tree.

Sgt. Schiavone is reputed to have been one of Captain Shouse’s drinking buddies.

Sgt. Frank Schiavone was involved in a hit and run accident in the City of Indio. He and others fled the scene.

Shouse got the whole thing covered up to make sure his drinking buddy did not get popped for a DUI or fleeing the scene

Andrew Shouse had a lot of tryists with a lot of people. I’ve been told at least two stories of Shouse taking other men’s girlfriends and having sex with them. I’ve also been told by several people that Andrew Shouse had sex with almost all of the female employees under his watch.

Some of you may recall my posts about Deputy Bxxxxxx. She got screwed over by Lt. Bostrom who had her arrested for being allegedly under the influence at the training command (and was later found to be clean). Bostrom wanted to take her down because she had Shouse’s kid, or something along those lines. I can’t keep track of all of their scores, it is like a playboy novel.

After the stench around Andrew Shouse got so bad, he was sent to the Robert Pressley Detention Center where he promptly started screwing his way through the female staff there and then he got fired. Shouse is now attempting to get his job back.

Frank Schiavone? Well, he has some baggage of his own… first off is a well-known affair with a now Captain.

Allegedly Schiavone was also stalking a now ex-wife pre and post divorce. He still has his job. Where was that investigation? Probably in the same place as the investigations of Sgt Dekker, Lt Rose, Lt Kent, etc etc etc.

Some people may not understand why we take the time to write about this stuff here at RightonDaily. Let me spell it out for you. This is the kind of behavior that is allowed to go on in Stan Sniff’s Riverside Sheriff’s Department. Andrew Shouse should have been fired years ago, yet the rank and file know they are as likely to get screwed by County Admin as the perpetrator is, therefore Shouse can brandish a weapon and take someone’s girlfriend by force while wasted (as one example of what I was told by informants). The rank and file also know that Friends of Stan are off-limits. It appears that Shouse was one up until some point before he was terminated.

It seems that Shouse has a clear nexus for hating the Sheriff. He also has a nexus for hating your intrepid blogger. Perhaps he should have not done what he did and I’d have no reason to write about him.

Honest Cops have been putting up with this kind of behavior from co-workers for years under Stan Sniff. It needs to stop. There needs to be a house-cleaning where dirty cops are terminated and prosecuted. Right now, the regime of terror reigns supreme where honest people are intimidated in to silence and no one likes their job.

Stan Sniff is the boss, and he owns the corruption of the department. When I speak to Confidential Informants, one after the other, they tell me they had such high hopes for Stan Sniff only to have him end up being way worse than any of his predecessors.

We get a volume of email from sources requesting anonymity, but when it starts out like this:

The Special Enforcement Bureau (SWAT) lost all effectiveness under Sniff. This is because he let the hard-line SWAT purists run the team. Ron Barry and Craig Kilday morphed the team into a professional workout club. All they did was train and never deploy except for “surround and call-out” type missions. In order for someone to receive their services, a captain had to fill out a multi-page questionnaire reference the requested mission. If you answered one of the 30+ questions in the negative, then SEB would advise that the mission did not meet their parameters and therefore they could not participate. The questionnaire appeared to be developed to intentionally prevent the use of SEB.

The behavior of the commanders of the SWAT Team looks a lot like the corrupt Bob Epps total control of the Bomb Squad.

The SWAT Team and Central Homicide Team were started under Sheriff Bob Doyle, and Stan Sniff is reputedly hostile to both teams. (They were not his idea) Sniff also nixed the idea of a criminal investigation team for Internal Affairs. (Imagine that) A recent post I made about Sniff talking openly about disbanding the SWAT Team makes even more sense, and the uselessness of the SWAT Team makes sense because that is the way Sniff wants it.

The leadership of the SWAT Team and their BS request forms has had a serious impact on other parts of the department, as chiefs of police and RSO captains had to use the gang task force teams to serve high risk warrants! This is something that SEB (aka Swat Team) was supposed to do. This created a conflict and the Gang Task Force had to stop serving warrants like this because Chiefs and Captains were using the GTF as a pseudo-SWAT team, something they were not and something they were not trained for.

The long set of request forms still exist to this day because the Sheriff really does not want them (SWAT) for anything other than show. The rank and file members of the SWAT Team resent how they are being used. They want to do their missions, and Sniff has refused to allow for On-Call hours to be in the budget, which further shelves the SWAT Team. 

It seems that Sniff’s only use for the SWAT Team is an excuse for a pretense to go to the range every Friday. Sniff is known to go to the County Rage to fire his automatic weapons (that he may not legally be allowed to possess), under the cover story that he is testing weapons for the SWAT Team. Sniff takes a bay at the range for himself pretty much every Friday for hours.

This is also another explanation for why RSO’s SWAT Team was nowhere to be found when Christopher Dorner was murdering cops on his rampage and why they were not responding to the Terrorist Attack. Beyond Stan Sniff’s orders and refusal to cooperate with others, the SWAT Team themselves had set up their own culture by their Captain Ron Barry (with the blessing of Stan Sniff) of not cooperating either.

It was put to me that some folks met with Ron Barry about the issue of the way the SWAT Team has been rendered useless, but Barry stuck to his guns that missions had to meet their narrowly defined parameters and high risk services of search warrants did not meet them! (are you kidding me???)

I thought the SWAT team was intended to protect police officers and suspect lives by being the best at serving high risk search warrants and similar stuff! These appeals for common sense and sanity fell on deaf ears and I’ve been told that Gang Task Force now does the majority of high risk entries in the county. No wonder why the casualty rate in the RSO is so high! Given Sniff’s Narcissism and hostility to the SWAT Team (because it was created under Doyle), it all makes sense.

In case you’ve not had enough – There is another instance I was told about where the Sheriff’s Office was going to pick up a murder suspect and the SWAT Team refused to come. The Narcotics team had to respond. AN ARMED MURDER SUSPECT. No SWAT Team.

Lastly – there is this:

“Let’s not forget also that Stan Sniff bought the old Hadley Orchard warehouse Main Steet in Cabazon to become SEB/SWAT headquarters, despite SEB/SWAT commander Ron Barry recommending he not do it. Why? The building was incredibly dilapidated and the concrete floors would not support their heavy armored vehicles. The building was purchased for $3 Million and the entity that sold the building to the Sheriff’s Office magically became a campaign donor. Coincidence?”

Remember how we told you about the deputy that got suspended for two weeks for taking a picture of himself in uniform with a Chad Bianco Sign?

Remember how we told you about the widely known allegations of two members of Sniff’s Senior Management getting away with a DUI?

Remember all the instances of one friend of Stan after another getting away with ripping off overtime? Bob Epps and his alleged felonies?

Meet Correctional Deputy Matthew Currier.

He got popped for Shoplifting in San Bernardino County.

He was on job probation no less (in the first 18 months of his hire) and could have been let go with no recourse.

Nothing happened.

Then his co-workers started mocking and ridiculing him causing him to quit about a week later. They did what Sheriff Sniff and the so-called Professional Standards Bureau refused to do so many other times… hold someone accountable for committing a crime.

This is just another in the long list of Stan Sniff Cover-Ups.

P.S. Sworn Deputies derisively refer to Correctional Deputies as “Potatos”. This term made for a funny headline, as I respect both professions and would do neither of them no matter what the pay and bloated benefits were.

It was also put to me that Sam Metz from the Desert Sun, who wrote the hit piece against Chad Bianco and your intrepid blogger obtained a copy of this and promptly sent it to Dave Kurylowicz. By doing this, Metz officially joined the ranks of the Stan Sniff for Sheriff Campaign as Kurly is preparing new spin to cover his initial lies regarding this tape.

You can read my piece demolishing the Desert Sun and Kurly here for background.

In his tearful academy award winning performance Captain Dave Kurylowicz (of Moreno Valley Station) went to the Palm Springs City Council and on live TV claimed that in an argument in February that Chad Bianco made Homophobic comments.

The tape of the actual conversation that occurred shows that to be false. Listen for yourself here. What other 1980’s style tactics is the Stan Sniff campaign going to attempt next?

The tape of the conversation was captured on the cell-phone of a Chad Bianco operative that had the presence of mind to record the exchange.

Remember, Stan Sniff and Dave Kurylowicz had a meeting with a Palm Springs Councilmember before Kurly’s theatrics. This demonstrates Stan Sniff’s ownership of the lie.
