Anybody know what Vilica LLC is?
IS HE STILL WORKING FOR THE DA'S OFFICE? 'CAUSE, OH, MAN!!!!
Looks like he has an illegal building, an illegal greenhouse and illegal roads for his property held under the name Vilica LLC. Vilica LLC returns to him with the secretary of state. On his applications to correct, the road will end at the "garden site."
No wonder he can afford to work "pro bono" - No wonder he so desperately wanted to keep Gallegos in office
Looks like there's some kind of partner or something, or Schectman is looking at transferring this to Haven Kozak, Haven Kozak - Paradise Palms Nursery LLC. - Looks like he got the funds for his "business" "Paradise LLC from a local community development lender...
and on 11/16/05 it looks like Haven Kozak had a matter pending in federal court: 11:00 AM (r)CR-04-0285 UNITED STATES v. JOHN KUHRY (NC), HAVEN KOZAK(NC), KENNETH SHEPP(NC)
reserved for Motions/Trial Setting
John Kuhry's Motion to Suppress
Kenneth Shepp's Motion to Suppress -
charged federally with possession with intent to distribute.

Fascinating testimony in front of the board today - from what I gather - Schectman claims to have sold the land to Paradise Palms LLC, but he's undertaken cleanup...it's TPZ land near Hoopa plateaus cleared, no blade of grass, several sites with 4, 5, 6 approx. 40 x 100 foot greenhouses, "cabins" built, water diverted from a nearby creek, runoff into the creek, roads cut into the hillsides - amazing really - whaddya want to bet that this is ok with the same segment of thye community that is against people building a family home.

Wow, President. Sounds impressive. Wasn't he the "volunteer" lawyer for the Palco case? The one PVG allowed to wander about the DA's office? Did he ever have a standard background check for the DA's office?
ReplyDeleteInteresting.
Yeah - the "pro bono" lawyer for Gallegos' Office. The stand in Recall shill, the one who hired little earth Firsters and then stiffed them - and ended up in trouble with the labor board or something... the one who shows up at grow houses and threatens people, because "you know who he is, don't you?"
ReplyDeleteDoes Gallegos have any people associated with him that aren't slimy?
Only a couple Rose - and it is a crying shame.
ReplyDeleteBut you forgot that he also had illegal septic systems and was illegally diverting water from the stream. I believe it was fish and game that stumbled on to this one.
Gee a specially deputized DA who is his big buddy and who is growing weed. 5 years ago I would have been stunned. Now I think its only the icing on the cake. I wonder how long other DDA's can work before they wear this slime too.
heartbreaking for the good people of this community. The pot growers are probably laughing their asses off.
BTW have you noticed that sime Gags instituted his 99 plants now matter how big standard, how many folks that are busted with thousands of plants aren't even from here. We are being invaded by SoCal people and others who aren't even citizens of the county, state or country.
But, my senses tell me we still haven't hit bottom yet.
And this guy had the gall to say he was qualified to be DA during the recall.
ReplyDeleteYeah - isn’the the one who sues people and businesses civilly for alleged environmental wrongs. All the while he is growing dope, building illegal structures, putting in illegal septic systems and diverting our streams and hurting our fish. Hypocrite!
ReplyDeleteIndeed he had the standard background check for PVG DDA's and he had/has all the qualifications PVG looks for.
ReplyDeleteUnlike the career prosecutors who were encouraged, explictly and
implictly, to go away.
After watching the soups meeting on TV tonight, Id say you all are mistaken. All the people who spoke for villica's behalf were obviously simply hiered consultants doing their job and making a living speaking for villica llc. The speakers were well know members of society, a local planner and a owner of a watershed consulting firm, not dope growers, so who is to say that this guy waa anymore then an attourney given proxy to represent this llc, so no face is put to the company who was obviously doing something wrong. Think it through people....
ReplyDeleteIt's a shell game, no question - who is hiding behind the LLCs?
ReplyDeleteHow does a pro-bono attorney afford 5 million dollars worth of TPZ property?
All that cat work, cutting in roads, and leveling plateaus, all that building doesn't come cheap either. One of the pictures showed the "fields" laid out with black stripes where the Inspector noted that they had likely tilled in potting soil in readiness for the grow.
Q: How does a pro-bono attorney afford 5 million dollars worth of TPZ property?
ReplyDeleteA: selling pot.
all the cat work, the building materials, and labor were paid in cash. And that came from pot sold in the past.
ReplyDeleteSounds like organized crime to me.
josh hedlund the biggest thief fraudster and dope grower around is behind villica and many other llc dope grows in humbldt. setting up naive kids to take the fall while he takes the money. all the while he is facing federal charges for a huge indoor bust in berkeley that has already seen about sven kids go to prison. hedlund claims to be untouchable in humboldt because he is a family friend of gallegos. complete scum.
