Tap Tap Tap Tap me, whatever pain or harm a wiretap can bring is nothing compared to the financial rewards that can land in the victim’s bank accounts. There is not one doubt in my mind that I was “listened to” during the days of Anthony Pellicano’s reign of terror. …To think of all that money slipping through my hands only because my government got hoodwinked by a self-taught private investigator in the art and wizardry of wiretapping and the storage of information. All at the hands of a computer geek and “The Pelican.”

I have heard through the grapevine MILLIONS were paid to make one “victim” go away, and even a couple of lesser victims got more than they could have ever dreamed of. However, there are people in the world that a million, 2 million, 3 million is a little like tipping the parking attendant a $ 10 bill: big deal for that parking guy, ain’t shit for the guy giving it…very similar here folks.

And in some people’s circles, when you put your ass on the line and “stay the course” it is expected that you and those close to you will be taken care of. That is real old school if you get what I am saying here folks. …And in the end what is a an old law career worth anyways, 1 million, 2 million, 3 million…well I think you are getting the point here. …

…Very rich divorce lawyers battling it out in the civil courts and one is guilty as hell and the other is a victim. The problem is the next payout will not be fast and easy as this last one. Damn, Tap Tap Tap away…as it is so often stated, the rich get richer, and the rest of us? We at least sleep well, right fellas?

Well all I can say is today in Judge Dale Fischer’s court was like ‘batter up’. Batter up as in ‘smack’ the ball! And smack the ball Dale Fischer did, everyone, Ray Earl Turner was the first to fall. This guy had a criminal history that one would wonder how did he keep a job at the phone company? He was arrested for stealing batteries, he was arrested for stealing something from Home Depot, he was arrested for stealing ‘muscle cream’, while working in the field for the phone company.

The knowledge of how to use ‘muscle cream’ might come in handy in Ye Ol’ jail house as he got 10 years and one month. I would imagine rubbing muscles is a favorite past time… And $ 150,000.00 dollar fine. But you know he has or had all kinds of rental property and a home too! This will be good for all of those lawsuits that will follow him. His lawyer, Mona C. Soohoo tried to present to the court all kinds of reasons why Uncle Ray should not go to prison. One was especially touching, his sister is getting out of prison soon and Ray would be able to get her comfortable. What? Is that not what a parole agent is supposed to do? Does the state not have ‘half way’ houses? I heard one of Turner’s friend or relative state, “Ten years for that? “ I would say YES and Judge Fischer did not stutter. (How would you like to have your phone calls listened to?)

Next up was Lil’ Abner Nicherie, he was dressed nice, looked like he does not pay much attention to detail in his appearance. He looked awkward! But he was awake and standing this time, it was sweet; he and his mother sat and held hands. His mom is like 75 years old and dresses like 20 year old! And she has that platinum blond hair and those big spongy lips like that lunatic who had the 8 kids, you know ‘Blubber’ lips. Well his lawyer, Lawrence C. Semanza tried to tell the judge all the reasons why his already convicted felon should not go to jail and the judge listened and then guess what she did? 21 months and a $3,000.00 fine off to Federal Prison. The U.S. Marshals took them right then and there, searched and handcuffed them…Poof you are now ‘Inmate Lil’ Abner. He was funny; I have always thought he was funny. (You have to wonder who would give this nut job millions of dollars?) He told the judge how he is attending Nevada State College to be a registered nurse! He is a double convicted felon and one of the felonies was for Pharmaceutical violations. This guy does have a sense of humor…..Registered Nurses don’t they handle drugs and Judge Fischer brought this to his attorney’s attention, we all had a good chuckle. He is funny, I am telling you. Maybe he will take a course in audio and visual repair while in prison and work on phone technology too! His mother left about 15 minutes before he was shackled and removed from the court.

Alright are you with me? Two down and two who now have ‘inmate’ were ‘mr.’ was just a few hours ago. Now here comes the Da Sarge. Oh, Chad Hummel had the best delivery and he is a great lawyer. And he tried and he presented and he smiled and he was doing what a good lawyer does, trying to keep his client out of prison. 10 years and one month, $100,000.00 fine for inmate Arneson, BAM!

Three for three and it was a home run for Saunders and Lally, these guys were rested and they were as sharp as sharp could be. (No more of that Laurel and Hardy crap) They knew that these guys were bagged and now they were making room on the wall for their heads, it was done, and a job well done. Judge Fischer really laid into Da Sarge, here are some of her quotes, “He lied from the moment he took the stand”, “Mr. Arneson took me a back”, “cavalier”, “Never took bribes” -“false”, “continued to lie to pursue his goals”, “serviced Anthony Pellicano on and off duty”, “he was a corrupt police officer”, “victimized hundreds of people”, “he repeatedly gave false testimony’. And one of the best was when she told his attorney as a Federal Judge can, “He is not leaving this court house”. The judge made it clear also her feelings about the ‘polygraph’ that Arneson’s Lieutenant gave him…Huh? Arneson passed it……file that under who cares! LOL

Chad was scrambling to try and get a bail for Da Sarge, His wife and a ‘partner’ (an older gentleman) was present to post a DUPLEX that she owns. (The judge wants to have lots of valuable stuff to secure his bail) And this could be tricky as it may also reveal assets for the government to go after. And there was a nice ‘lake house’ that was up for grabs too. It was reported that Arneson had moved assets around to prevent them from being taken by the hundreds of potential judgments. Dozens and dozens of lawsuits that will be filed and that are already being served. I hope he hid them good! And not to give a sucker a break, Prosecutor Daniel Saunders makes it clear to the judge that the government may go after the signature bond that Arneson put up as he may have violated the conditions. And Saunders wants to keep that on the table….Saunders and Lally were on top of their game…..tough Federal Prosecutors!

Note: Stan Ornelas was present and looking well rested and told us that he was still retired!

Typhoid Mary and Anthony Pellicano, can it get any more serious than that? Well it is reported that Fiorentino is writing a screenplay about Anthony Pellicano…hmm, all I can say is that you are a little late, “Miss Thing.” Linda, you may want to go on the speaking circuit, you know, go to police and federal training academies and tell them how you single-handedly brought one of their own…DOWN! There could also be a sequel, “THUD”, how I dropped my F.B.I. boyfriend! Ol’ hot cakes, aka X-Special Agent Rossini, has plead guilty and taken a deal. Here folks is a smart one! Da Sarge should have read the same book he did as to “How to Make a Deal.” He has already lost his career, and will get probation and a fine…the embarrassment for Mr. Rossini will be like a death sentence and again kids, FOR WHAT? Going against his own agency to come to the defense of Anthony Pellicano? The defense of Anthony Pellicano…as futile as rearranging the deck chairs on the S.S. Titanic! Defense? What defense was worth a Special Agent’s career?

Well, one shoe fell this morning in Federal Court in Los Angeles: Terry Christensen was sentenced. No surprises here folks, Judge Dale Fischer aka Judge Sledge (as in hammer) started slow and built to a smack down that was no surprise, 3 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. So much for paying those idiots who suggested to the court 10 months house arrest and $30,000 fine! I also noticed it got hotter as she spoke, as if the bowels of hell were opening (and this is just a warm up for the Pelican and his crew. not looking too good Paisano!). This morning’s proceedings had all the feelings of a funeral, those of us in attendance got to witness a man’s career being thrown into a pit and dirt being shoveled in on top, and the final shovel would be the sentence given by Judge Fischer. I was not happy as I have been playing the P.I. Game in this town for many years and I as well as many others know the truth….I have said this before, if J. Edgar Hoover had been alive Mr. Christensen would have had a lot of company sitting with him…and the others had been doing what Mr. Christensen has been charged with (2 counts) for years! YEARS, not several weeks, like he did! And I know that it made no difference, steal a roll of dimes from a bank or a bag full of Benjamins it is all a crime, I do get it. Do you get me and my point? Alright, Ok, I have heard the tapes and yes there is obviously material there to come to the conclusion that the jury and many others have come to. However, I do know all the players in High Stakes divorce cases in this town and even Higher Stakes civil litigation. And there are several lawyers in this “play pen” that must have just been taking massive doses of Imodium AD people. Oh sure, much of what Anthony Pellicano recorded is gone or cannot be opened by our government in Quantico, Va. Can you imagine if the Feds had got it right the first time?

Mr. Christensen was there with his wife and his son Christopher, and many more supporters than detractors. The defense knew exactly what was coming and went through the motions. I have heard all the thoughts as to the defense I was there and I don’t think a better defense could have been made. Those GD tapes, that was the burn, and again for what? At the end of the day what did Pellicano make better? Save a few million for a rich old guy? For someone who was and still is worth billions? Saunders and Lally and several of the agents involved were also there. Saunders too was on top of his game, this for the prosecutors is a glorious day and that is what we, as tax payer, pay them as prosecutors to do, prosecute, and that is what these two Federal Prosecutors did, they have no reason to feel guilty. Lally, Suanders, all of the agents did a great job, I just wish that they would have dug a little deeper…what they got was a minnow, all the real big ‘uns got away.

One of the highlights of the morning was when Judge Fischer asked if any of the “victims” wanted to speak. Well, just as there is morning and night to follow here comes none other than Stephen Kolodny. There are some things Kolodny is not going to miss, breakfast, lunch, dinner and the opportunity to make his presence known…

…Also present was Mr. Kerkorian’s security person, a nice guy and he always dresses very well, no surprise there, right. The shaved head, nice suit, nice glasses and a “look.” He and I could have been separated at birth! (Kerkorian and all that is related to his name was a big part of this case). Well, when Stephen got up to address the court, the look that Kerkorian’s guy gave Stephen was right out of the book of “if looks could kill,” or was it more of a look of “enough already”…I am thinking more like a scowl! That moment was worth being there for. And as I was outside taking notes, I thought I heard Mr. Kolodny make a comment to a group that “Nazarian was taking notes,”…

Well you know what they say, just plan a nice late morning swim and the phone will ring! It did I got my first call from John Connolly, and then Robert Iafolla called and told me that the jury was ready and get to the courthouse by noon — it was already after 11:30 AM. I was out of the pool and at the courthouse by 12:01PM, not bad!

The place was jumping, the guards were milling around and the players were all there. Lally and Saunders were very quiet, almost like a couple of big dogs who had just treed the neighbor’s cat and were getting ready to take a snooze under the tree and wait…and wait they did! All the games had been played and the Jury had done their job, and at 12:15 PM Judge Fischer began to read Pellicano’s charges, all 77 of them…on 76 of them he was found guilty! And worst of all was the RICO act…talk about some bad fish! Pellicano just sat there, at one time tried to smile but remained very stoic, almost like he could not move. He looked around the courtroom and was almost comatose. It took almost 1/2 an hour for the judge to read his charges and it was very slow and almost “wah wah.” It was all melding together for me. His wife Kat sat and listened and was also very stoic and looked straight ahead. Could it be 6-7 years and maybe 20 more for RICO? The Pelican is so done, but he still has not said a word and appeared to find all of this entertaining. What does he feel about Omerta, I guess it worked for him!

Note: I was told that he blew through almost all of this money and never saved any money for his one child, who is not well. What about the oath to provide for your family?

Next in line was my “buddy” the Sarge, Mark Arneson. It was the worst scenario for a cop, Guilty of RICO and 44 other charges, that could be…20 plus years in prison! It will have to be in “protective custody” or he won’t have a prayer. Yup, it will be double the hell in prison, a dirty cop and all the rest won’t be good for him! His wife looked as if the jury had just smacked her…it was sad, but what did she think? The jury saw and heard what we had and it was “Guilty” all the way…Da Sarge did it all and got caught. “Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time!” The other problem for the Sarge is that this judge is going to make an example of this dirty copper who saw “nothing wrong” with what he did, hell everyone does it…NOT!

Ray Turner got the smack down too, RICO and GUILTY of 14 of the 18 charges against him…he too seemed pretty much resigned to the fact that this was not going to be a good day, Happy Ray was looking a little sad!

One of the more amusing verdicts was for Lil’ Abner Nicherie. LMAO, after watching him for weeks taking his nice long naps and coming in late he was wide awake today, yes he was, as the judge said….GUILTY, you nitwit! No, she did not say “nitwit,” that was me! He put his face in his hands and just looked like he got smacked with a dead Pelican! This grifter already is a convicted felon, and now this? He is so F%@#ed. This judge is going to lay chubby away…you watch when she sticks him with the full sentencing guidelines…but for that we have to wait until September.

Here is my prediction: based on what we witnessed today, Terry N. Christensen (the only lawyer to get caught in the Pelican net) better make a deal! He does not want to go forward with a trial based on the evidence against him. He is right there talking with the Pelican and he is in as deep as he can get! He is rich and will be rich when he gets out of prison, people are also saying that Kerkorian will take care of him…..Hmmm!

Lots of reporters waiting for the verdicts and the jurors outside. I was asked what it was like in the courtroom, all I could think of was what a turkey farm must look like during Thanksgiving…it was a slaughter! Feathers everywhere — not turkey feathers but Pelican feathers!

Can this trial get any more insulting? First I pay $8.00 to park my car on Tuesday the 15th of April only to have Chad Hummel stand up and start what was a brilliant attempt to take a shot at a mistrial! Chad has a presence and even as Judge Fischer was trying to shut him down, the voice would not quit! Chad’s attack almost had Lally and Saunders doing the famous “He did it!,” pointing at each other! What did Mr. Hummel think when he put his dummy on the stand? Throw chocolate kisses and discuss the finer aspect of policing Los Angeles? Anyways, I was out in less than an hour and I could have parked curbside…8 bucks, Chad!

Wednesday was funny in so much that we got to watch the “dummy” try and convince everyone that he only told a “falsehood”…this is the word that “Da Sarge” uses when he lies. Dummy! Mr. Mark Arneson has got to be either one of the dumbest SOB’s in the world, or actually thought he was doing good! …Saunders showed how Da Sarge falsified his “Sgt’s logs” for the L.A.P.D., and it was nothing short of pathetic…

…One of the bright spots was when FBI Special Agent Stan Ornelas took the stand…he goes up right after Arneson gets off. …This guy, Ornelas is the real deal, he was the Lead Case Agent on this case and a guy who knows his stuff! Stan became an agent when becoming one was tough. 30 years of tracking down the bad guys — now don’t get me wrong, it is still tough to get into the FBI, but I am talking old school here folks! …Mr. Hummel I think may have made one mistake putting Arneson up on the stand and now he is talking to a guy who is going to tell the truth, Stan Ornelas, Special Agent! I think we will all see, as will Mr. Hummel, that when you tell the truth it is very easy! Unlike watching Mr. Arneson try and remember what lie was what and when, and we already know that “Da Sarge” is not the sharpest knife in the drawer…
