The gun raffle and campaigning on duty issues are deplorable but it’s not a surprise. Those issues are however, absolutely trivial and insignificant if compare to the reality of the crimes that have been white-washed and swept under the carpet throughout the current ‘acting’ Sheriff’s career. It’s ironic that in his attempts to paint Whaley […]
Valley Voice, I read your article on Calif. Food Banks have crucial need for more milk. I’m pretty sure these folks who are asking for food at the banks are receiving the E.B.T. Card and can buy so much food, I live where a lot of these Mexicans live they throw meat and all kinds […]

Many Americans agree with the architects and engineers of AE911Truth that a new independent investigation into 9-11 is needed because of the facts they have discovered. Why is the […]
Visalians, it’s time to adopt a new habit. One of our most important resources is in trouble, and we need to do everything we can to protect it today and into the future.

The program assists veterans with service-connected disabilities to prepare for, find and keep suitable jobs. For veterans with service-connected disabilities so severe that they cannot immediately consider work, the program offers services to improve their ability to live as […]
One year ago, on this date, I was acquitted on 6 counts of violating a visitation order and 6 additional counts of child deprivation/concealment. The jury found me NOT GUILTY on all 12 counts. This all came about from a local law enforcement agency(which will remain nameless, due to a civil action) and the Tulare […]
I worked with Ralph Kaelble and Tim Ward in the District Attorney’s Office from 1999 to 2010 (the year I retired). I would like to tell you why I think Ralph Kaelble is the best man for the job of Tulare County District Attorney. He is an excellent attorney and a very capable supervisor of […]
Mr. Pastis, I am very much concerned about the way you reported from the “Candidates Forum” for the two Sheriff candidates on Wednesday 26th of April in front of our Rotary Club! I think it would have been more honest of you to choose a title: ”Vote for Boudreaux – I do not like Whaley!” […]
