Greg Munks for Sheriff 2014 donated $1,000 to Bolanos in 2015... wasn't that before he announced he was stepping down? Talk about rigged succession right there.

Also, how many of those Lieutenants, Captains, Sergeants, etc were promoted shortly after their donation?

How is Bolanos spending his money? Today he sent out a rather panicky attack mailer on Melville. The mailer warns voters, "Don't be fooled by his attempts to mislead the public he is endorsed by...Jackie Speier. HE'S NOT."

Bolanos doesn't mention that he's not endorsed by Jsckie Speier either. She's one of the few elected officials who has spoken out against him for getting caught in FBI sting in illegal brothel

That's the best you can do- boast about how much money Bolanos swindled from taxpayers? Most of the donations were forced. People donated (especially employees) out of fear and possible retribution. The good thing is that we still have our votes.

When you have no ethics or morals you need lots of money to cover your deficiencies.

The question is: Why does he need all that money to run against a Deputy, which he claims has no experience?
Donate that money to human trafficking!!

Vote Mark Melville! The only candidate not buying votes.

I remember a time when Dave Boyce provided honest and well covered stories. And not too long ago, he was not a friend of the Sheriff's Office for many reasons. Now- everything is one-sided! What happened? Report the truth! Journalism is one of the public's defenses. Don't sell out! Mark Melville for Sheriff.

He registered as a candidate in October 2015, That is before Greg Munks announced he would not be running for re-election in 2018.

Also think about the Sheriff Deputies who were invited to show their support and a recommended donation was listed.

Carlos Bolanos has demonstrated several times how he is unfit to lead the Sheriff Office. Like a teenager he has refused to answer the most simple question about Operation Dollhouse from April 21, 2018. Everybody knows he was Detained that night. Thanks to another Sheriff Deputy we now understand better what really happened that night.

Question for Carlos Bolanos How many minutes were you detained on April 21, 2007 by the FBI and LVMPD?

The residents are waking up. Vote Mark Melville for Sheriff 2018 and get rid of the Supervisors who have caused this mess.

After Former San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy Juan P. Lopez's Court Hearing this Thursday at 9:00 AM. Good and Concerned Citizens invited to attend the ruling to dismiss charges based on the fraud by SMCSO Det. Armando to the Judge to get a Search Warrant for Mr. Lopez's phone.

I wouldn't be surprised if Illegally Appointed Sheriff Carlos Bolanos was indicted in the near future.

There is no doubt that former Sheriff and co-conspirator Munks along with Supervisor Horsley are behind the big donations to Bolanos. 108 Sheriff's employee donations, are you kidding me? Those employee's were strong armed into donating monies to assist in their promotions! Bolanos started running for office in January 2015, but no matter how much money he receives he can't buy back his reputation. Bolanos has tarnished his reputation, the reputation of the Sheriff's Office, and the reputation of all law enforcement. It's time to bring back the credibility to all those who have suffered because of this man, who continues to deny he has done nothing wrong, please! Now is the time for change, vote Melville on June 5th.

$1000 donation is a small price to pay for a promotion where you'll receive a vehicle allowance of $800 per month. $800 tax payer's money per month on top of a 6 figure salary for doing almost nothing.
