Oceanside drug addict loses third child

Honorable judge David Berry Judge noticed that a drug test submitted by the defense attorney dated March 18, 2021, showed she was positive for the drug buprenorphine. The defense attorney replied that yes, "that one is Subutex, which is what she got through the Mission Clinic." But judge Berry was not favorably impressed, he stated that the woman MUST NOT TEST POSITIVE FOR THAT, and any drugs she might take must be by prescription from a physician licensed in the State of California. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2021...

Teen girl fights off possible kidnapper

In November of 2018, Alan Sasseen, then 60, withdrew his not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity plea, and admitted attempted-kidnapping of the 12 yr old girl, plus assault by means likely to produce great bodily injury on the 16 yr old sister. In the plea deal Sasseen got 4 years prison for the first felony, plus two years prison for the second felony to run “concurrent.” However, Sasseen served less than 2 years in prison, he was arrested again last summer, in July 2020, charged with felony failure to register as a sex offender. Sasseen was able to pay a $2,500 fee to Aladdin Bail Bonds for his $25,000 bail and he was freed September 1, 2020. Three months later, in December 2020, Alan Ray Sasseen, now 62, was charged with felony indecent exposure. The newest complaint states he did willfully, lewdly and unlawfully expose his private parts in a public place where other persons were present and offended and annoyed thereby; this while he was out on bail. Sasseen is currently held in the Vista jail in lieu of $125,000 bail. His next court date is set for April 7, when his attorney will argue for reasonable bail.
