The Ghosts of Stan Sniff: Former Riverside Sheriff (and Sniff) Chief Deputy Ron Dye Arrested in Prostitution Sting

Chad Bianco will be years cleaning up the department. I’d have thought that dealing with Bob Epps and the Bomb Squad as well as the cover up of the Kevin Duffy serial child molestation scandal would have been at the top of the list, but a year in I’ve seen no updates on either.

Why are some of Sniff’s people still in charge of stuff?

The bottom line about former Chief Deputy Ron Dye – he got popped in a prostitution sting. (One of those “Victimless Crimes” that libertarian anarchists and sexual deviants want to legalize)

On Thursday, January 9, 2020, at the direction of Sheriff Chad Bianco, Temecula Special Teams coordinated a comprehensive “John” prostitution and narcotic sting operation in the city of Temecula.  This operation was conducted primarily as a prostitution sting, which targeted male “Johns,” soliciting an undercover female deputy for sexual favors in exchange for money.  During the operation, Temecula Special Teams simultaneously worked a narcotic investigation targeting subjects with active warrants known to buy/sell illegal narcotics.  During this operation, the following 10 people were arrested and booked at the Cois Byrd Detention Center:

• Jeir Castillo, HMA, 25-year-old resident of Lake Elsinore, Ca. / Prostitution

• Anthony Garcia, HMA, 21-year-old resident of Temecula, Ca. / Prostitution

• Ron Dye, WMA, 72-year-old resident of Murrieta, Ca. / Prostitution

• Everett Mays, BMA, 53-year-old resident of Temecula, Ca. / Prostitution

• Chad Nehlsen, WMA, 41-year-old resident of Murrieta, Ca. / Prostitution

• Daniel Wolff (WMA, 31-year-old resident of Temecula, Ca. / Prostitution

• Juan Juan, HMA, 46-year-old resident of Wildomar, Ca. / Prostitution

• Alfredo Becerra, HMA, 33-year-old Temecula transient / Possession of Illegal Narcotics and Felony Violation of Probation

• Derrick Kendrick, BMA, 25-year-old resident of Winchester, Ca. / Possession of Illegal Narcotics

• William Blackmon, WMA, 38-year-old Menifee transient / Possession of Illegal Narcotics and Felony Warrant

Ron Dye also donated $6,000 to Stan Sniff.

According to inside sources who I spoke to during and after the 2018 campaign, Dye was a jerk to anyone that disagreed with him and was used as a hatchet man while in the second floor. Dye was also alleged to have been working on some sort of lucrative contract out in Indio (referred to as “the desert”) where he was a Station Captain before becoming one of Stan Sniff’s butt-monkeys.

I received notification of this arrest several times suggesting that Dye was a universally loathed figure within the Riverside Sheriff’s Department.

The ghosts of Stan Sniff are all over and still active. I hope soon, I can give some updates about corruption being prosecuted, more of sniff’s goons being fired and real progress on the Kevin Duffy Cover-Up amongst others.
