Excuse me?

(Paul Gallegos' 'Campaign Manager' Natalynne) DeLapp said. "We've trained him on our dime, [and] he needs to be able to continue."

Really? Only a dime?

Maybe more like a million something, if you calculate the salary, benefits and everything else over the last 7 years...

And what about

  1. We paid him that much to destroy that office and screw victims and even defendants. Nero fiddLed as Rome burned and we paid this amount? Oh lord.

    And excuse me but his new gal pal is a bit of a whiner.

  3. wait, you left out all the people he hired and fired. Yougo Schwartz, Patrick Pekin, Shane Hauschild, Amanda Penny, Jose What's his name, Bryson, the woman who was gone in 4 days, Ed Borg, Tim Stoen, and on, and on, and on, and on .....

    He's burnt through a bloody fortune in wasted hires and fires .. His turnover in 8 years is probably higher than the last 3 DA's put together.

  5. I despise lawsuits of all sorts more or less,but kudos to Jeff Schwartz for taking on the city of Arcata for its horrid panhandling ordinance.

  6. Schwartz is a buffoon and was a complete waste of taxpayer dollars. He bilked 80 thousand tax payer dollars a year NOT to try any cases.

  7. Uhh, he actually tried two, but not very successfully.

  8. Wow. I'm impressed. Two cases? Lost both? Highest paid? Explains loads.

  9. You need to take Kelly Neel off of that list. She went back to work for Gags after her job with county Counsel didn't work out.

  10. Another note: The link in the post leads to an older post listing names of the people Gallegos has "lost," fired or driven away.

    Kathleen Bryson has send in the following update: I just noticed on watchpaul.com that I am supposed to have been fired from Gallegos's office. That is, of course, not true. I left his office voluntarily, worked my notice period, and went on to work in private practice.

    Duly noted, and the post is now updated as well.
