Who told the feds about Azano? Bob Brewer, that’s who.
I'm shocked-- SHOCKED-- (in the "Casablanca" sense of the word) that Sempra would send a white-collar criminal defense attorney down to Baja to clean up its trail of bribery and corruption. Who better than Nancy Hoover Hunter's defense attorney? Architect of the "I'm-Just-A-Dumb-Blonde" defense. How that guy kept a straight a face in the court room is beyond me. I wouldn't blame rank-and-file federal officers for their unusual stand down on the case. Sempra's tentacles bypass the bureaucracy. Simply put: Sempra buys and trains elected officials to do their bidding as we witnessed with SDG&E's Sunrise Powerlink: Arnold Schwarzenegger. Jerry Sanders. Dianne Feinstein. Ron Roberts. Cheryl Cox. Ben Hueso. Shills all of them. The administrative law judge and the CPUC Commissioner assigned to the Sunrise project concluded that the line wasn't needed and posed a huge fire risk. None the above idiots even read the draft decisions. They kept their mouths shut and did exactly as Sempra paid them to do. Schwarzenegger essentially ordered his appointees on the CPUC to greenlight the needless line. Now it runs right through the footprint of the 2003 Cedar Fire carrying electrons produced by LNG from Sempra's Baja terminal. CalFire planes can make water drops over the energized line but Sempra profits are just fine. That's how things go in San Diego. Good to know ahead of time that the guy who wants to be DA appears to be a Sempra shill too.— March 12, 2014 4:46 p.m.
