Atty. Tony Rackauckas on Wednesday released emails and court documents used in the trial to convict 10 Muslim students on criminal charges of disrupting a speech.The so-called Irvine 11 were each convicted of two misdemeanors Friday for disrupting aUC Irvine event featuring Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren in February 2010.The students face fines, probation and 56 hours of community service. Defense attorneys say they will appeal. Charges against an 11th defendant were dropped pending completion of community service.The evidence includes two videos from the event, multiple email chains from the students who planned the disruption and minutes from meetings of the Muslim Student Union, an organization that has denied planning the protest but whose members were involved.</div></div><div class="float" style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, " times="Times" new="New" roman="Roman" serif="serif" font-size="font-size" px="px" line-height="line-height" background-color="background-color" rgb="rgb" clear="clear" both="both" height="height"><img src="http://articles.latimes.com/images/pixel.gif" height="1" width="1" alt="" style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px; line-height: 20px; display: inherit !important;" /></div><div id="mod-ctr-lt-in-top" class="mod-latarticlesadcpc mod-adcpc with-fourth-cpc" style="padding: 3px 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-left: 0px; border-width: 1px 0px; border-top-style: solid; border-right-style: initial; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: initial; border-top-color: rgb(136, 136, 136); border-right-color: initial; border-bottom-color: rgb(136, 136, 136); border-left-color: initial; border-image: initial; font-family: Georgia, " times="Times" new="New" roman="Roman" serif="serif" font-size="font-size" px="px" line-height="line-height" background-color="background-color" rgb="rgb" margin-right="margin-right" important="important" width="width" float="float" none="none"><div id="mod-a-body-after-first-para" class="mod-latarticlesarticletextwithadcpc mod-latarticlesarticletext mod-articletext" style="padding: 0px 10px 0px 0px; margin: 0px 0px 10px; border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, " times="Times" new="New" roman="Roman" serif="serif" font-size="font-size" px="px" line-height="line-height" background-color="background-color" rgb="rgb">One email from a student summarizing the event said, "It is our duty to show the people who are going to listen that this man is a war criminal, and we will not allow a platform for him to spread lies on our campus, whether it be at UCI or any other campus around the nation."In May, Orange County Superior Court Judge Peter J. Wilson issued a gag order preventing anyone involved from talking about the case publicly.Dist. Atty. spokeswoman Susan Kang Schroeder said the office was unable to respond to criticism contending racism and religious bias because of the gag order."We felt it was important for the public to examine it for themselves," she said.She said she felt that the defense supporters acted in an intimidating manner during the trial and that the students on trial were defiant after the verdict."They've shown absolutely no remorse for the fact that they committed a crime," she said.Jacqueline Goodman, one of the defense attorneys in the case, said it's rare to devote so much energy to a misdemeanor, especially after a conviction. She added that the D.A.'s office is publicizing only a small portion of the evidence, which included thousands of pages of documents."They are only releasing the ones that look bad," she said.<a href="mailto:nicole.santacruz@latimes.com" style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 10px; border: 0px; line-height: 20px; text-decoration-line: none;">nicole.santacruz@latimes.com</a></div></div><div>=

</div><div></div><div>In late April, Brian Calle moved from being Vice President and Opinion Editor for the Freedom News Group (which included the Orange County Register and the Riverside Press-Enterprise) to a new gig at the same desk. With the purchase of Freedom by Digital First, he is the newly-appointed Vice President to the newly-named Southern California News Group, publisher of <span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); vertical-align: baseline; text-size-adjust: 100%; text-decoration-line: underline;">eleven newspapers. With many important issues and candidates on the June ballot, Calle is at the center of the action. </div><div>---</div><div>bs</div><div>
Digital First Media expanded Brian Calle’s duties as opinion editor at the Orange County Register in Santa Ana and Riverside-based Press-Enterprise to include oversight of the editorial board and opinion content for its entire Southern California News Group.Calle, who joined Register in 2009 as an editorial writer and columnist, was promoted to opinion editor in 2012, and became vice president of commentary the following year.He now will “actively engage community leaders and publish editorials around local issues specific to each market” in the region where DFM has a presence.The company has a roster of 11 daily newspapers under the banner of the Southern California News Group, including the Los Angeles Daily News, Daily Breeze in Torrance, Long Beach Press-Telegram, Pasadena Star-News, San Gabriel Valley Tribune, Whittier Daily News, Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, San Bernardino Sun and Redlands Daily Facts.He will report to Ron Hasse, the regional group’s president and publisher, and Executive Editor Frank Pine.Calle will bring “a thoughtful, credible and articulate voice that advocates for pragmatic policies that are economically and fiscally responsible and socially inclusive,” Pine said in a statement.“As an opinion group, we will aspire to be the thought leaders shaping a new advent of social and economic prosperity,” Calle said. “We will provide a unique and different perspective that both honors the values of each of our local communities, but also moves our region and state forward.”Digital First formed the Southern California News Group last month after acquiring assets of Freedom Communications Inc. in a bankruptcy auction.</div><div>

But in the past two years, Rackauckas has advocated that two vicious serial-killer inmates, Oscar Moriel and Rene "Boxer" Enriquez, should have the right to freely roam public streets again. His rationale? Moriel and Enriquez supposedly redeemed themselves while in custody by serving his office as jailhouse snitches. Meanwhile, the DA is helping to lead the effort to pass this November's Proposition 66, which seeks to speed up state executions under the theory that ruthless killers aren't redeemable. Mitigating factor: Susan Kang Schroeder, the DA's chief of staff, wears expensive, killer red outfit</div><div>

In January, he apologized after an editorial argued pro sports cheerleaders shouldn't seek state classification as employees (as opposed to independent contractors) because the job has "fringe benefits . . . such as working closely with" millionaire players. Then came a piece in March blasting Assemblymember Don Wagner for running against State Senator John Moorlach. Only problem? Wagner wasn't running. The Reg swung and missed again in October, when it endorsed Ling-Ling Chang against Sukhee Kang for a State Assembly seat. But Kang wasn't her opponent. Mitigating factor: Calle has luck, because despite these fuck-ups, Digital First promoted him to oversee the opinion pages at the chain's 11 Southern California dailies.</div><div>

</div><div>...Rackauckas is president of OC GRIP, which was founded in 2013 with the sole mission of supporting the DA’s Gang Reduction and Intervention Partnership programs. The program operates in 50 Orange County schools to prevent kids from joining street gangs and to help them stay in school. In July, the nonprofit donated $171,000 to the anti-gang program based on money the organization had raised the previous year.</div><div>

</div><div>For  nearly two decades, Tony Rackauckas has reigned over Orange County law enforcement as district attorney.</div><div>
</div><div>He’s survived allegations of cronyism and mismanagement while also winning praise for prosecuting police officers he accused of beating a homeless man to death in Fullerton.</div><div>
</div><div>But none of those firestorms can compare to the jailhouse informant scandal that has swirled around the county’s criminal justice system in recent years.</div><div>
</div><div>The snitch scandal has led to retrials in a number of murder cases, caused a judge to bar Rackauckas’ office from prosecuting a confessed mass murderer and sparked state and federal investigations into the Sheriff’s Department and the district attorney’s office. Not since the fall of former Orange County Sheriff Mike Carona nearly a decade ago has local law enforcement been under such scrutiny.</div><div>
</div><div>Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens announced last month that she would not seek another term. Rackauckas fully intends to run for reelection in 2018, in what political observers think will be a referendum on the snitch scandal and Rackauckas’ controversial tenure.</div><div>
</div><div>That list of allegations might serve as a knockout blow for a politician in other parts of California. But in Orange County, a fiercely pro-law enforcement Republican enclave, the litany of scandals have barely grazed Rackauckas’ chin. His reputation as a hard-charging lawman in a region that’s partial to cops has led some local political experts to think he will emerge from the latest fracas unscathed.</div><div>
</div><div>County Supervisor Todd Spitzer, a well-funded Republican foe who has called for the federal government to take over Rackauckas’ operation, stands ready to oppose him next year. But there are doubts about whether Spitzer can succeed.</div><div>
</div><div>“The question that Orange County voters and residents will be asking next year is, do they feel safe?” said Jon Fleischman, former executive director of the state Republican Party. “Todd Spitzer will run, and he’ll raise a bunch of money, but whether or not people fire their law enforcement officials comes to that question. Most people don’t read the newspaper or watch the news. If they feel safe, they don’t want change.”</div><div>
</div><div>Despite grand jury findings, fallout from O.C. jailhouse snitch scandal is far from over</div><div>Other Republican heavyweights in Orange County think Rackauckas needs to step aside so his office can have a clean slate.</div><div>
</div><div>“The thought of Todd running for D.A. has been the biggest boon to Tony,” said state Sen. John Moorlach (R-Costa Mesa), who said he doesn’t see either man as fit for the office. “Tony should not be D.A. anymore. He should not have been D.A. for a long time.”</div><div>
</div><div>The field for the 2018 district attorney’s race is far from set, but many expect it come down to a contest between Rackauckas and Spitzer, a former state assemblyman and ex-assistant district attorney who has a long-running feud with the county’s top prosecutor. Both are household names among Republicans in Orange County, but most pundits think Rackauckas would have the edge in an internal GOP fight unless the current scandals worsen.</div><div>
</div><div>“The recent news about the troubles in the D.A. office would need to go to another level in order for the local GOP to view Rackauckas as being too toxic a candidate to support,” said Stephen Stambough, a professor of political science at Cal State Fullerton.</div><div>
</div><div>Rackauckas last won reelection with 73.3% of the vote in 2014, and recently benefited from a grand jury report that dismissed allegations of a covert informant network as a “myth.”</div><div>
</div><div>Rackauckas’ campaign manager, Dave Gilliard, said he expects the grand jury’s take on the informant scandal to resonate more with voters than the continued accusations being made by local defense attorneys.</div><div>
</div><div>“There is a lot of noise around it, but at the end of the day, the grand jury labeled it a witch hunt,” he said.</div><div>
</div><div>Rackauckas hailed the report as vindication, but the fallout from the allegations continues to rock the county. Weeks after the grand jury report was released, an appellate court upheld a ruling vacating the conviction of a man accused of murdering a pregnant woman, based on prosecutors’ failure to disclose details about a jailhouse informant at trial.</div><div>
</div><div>Through a spokesman, Rackauckas said his office stands ready to retry the case.</div><div>
</div><div>The snitch scandal is far from the only controversy dogging Rackauckas these days. Last year, a panel of legal experts commissioned by Rackauckas found he had created a culture in the district attorney’s office where subordinates feared bringing troubling information to their boss. That report also said some prosecutors had developed a “win at all costs mentality,” doggedly pursuing convictions even in the face of possible violations of defendants’ constitutional rights, including the informant scandal.</div><div>
</div><div>Last month, three former district attorney’s investigators also made separate claims accusing Rackauckas and his circle of top prosecutors of interfering in cases against his political allies and covering up misconduct within the Fullerton Police Department.</div><div>
</div><div>Rackauckas and Spitzer declined to be interviewed for this story. But both have long histories in Orange County that could help or hurt them in what could be an ugly political clash.</div><div>
</div><div>Rackauckas began his career as a rising star in the district attorney’s homicide unit in the 1980s, and gained political capital by campaigning against a state Supreme Court justice opposed to death penalty sentences. He was appointed to the judiciary in 1990, where he earned some notoriety for showing leniency to nonviolent defendants facing lengthy jail terms under the state’s “three strikes” law.</div><div>
</div><div>As a teenager, Rackauckas was part of a Long Beach gang and wound up spending some nights in juvenile detention facilities. Rackauckas chose to drop out of high school and join the Army to straighten himself out. After his stint with the armed services, the future district attorney enrolled in law school.</div><div>
</div><div>Rackauckas won his first term as district attorney in 1998, riding a wave of frustration with his predecessor, Mike Capizzi, who found himself in the crosshairs of the county’s Republican party after he began to focus on public corruption cases.</div><div>
</div><div>A 2002 grand jury report accused him of interfering in prosecutions against campaign donors, earning an outright dismissal for one ally and a severely reduced sentence for another.</div><div>
</div><div>“Everybody kind of coalesced around Tony, but almost from the get-go, he was getting grand jury reports about his poor management,” Moorlach said. “Here we are almost 20 years later, and we’re still getting reports about his poor management.”</div><div>
</div><div>A two-time county supervisor and former state assemblyman, Spitzer has a record with its own blemishes. He was fired from the district attorney’s office in 2010 after Rackauckas accused him of misconduct. The two have been in a near constant war of words since. In May, Spitzer wrote a letter to U.S. Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions calling for an immediate federal takeover of Rackauckas’ office, which he described as “probably the most disrespected district attorney executive team in California.”</div><div>
</div><div>Spitzer, a reserve Los Angeles police officer, also was involved in a bizarre incident that saw him handcuff a man who was “preaching the word of God” at a Foothills Ranch restaurant in 2015. The Orange County Sheriff’s Department decided not to bring charges against Spitzer or the man he handcuffed in that incident.</div><div>
</div><div>Some also have expressed concerns about his management style. A lawsuit by a former employee accused Spitzer of having a “15-minute rule,” meaning he would dock the pay of workers who did not respond to his text messages within that time frame.</div><div>
</div><div>To some, the coming race is less a referendum on the scandals surrounding Rackauckas and more an indictment of county politics in general.</div><div>
</div><div>“Something has to improve. This is an elected position,” Moorlach said.</div><div>

Another case revolved around the alleged cover-up by Fullerton police of a former city manager’s drunk driving. Conklin and Santos said they were removed from the investigation into a third case, involving a man who they believed was planning a “Sandy Hook”-level mass shooting.The whistle-blower claims are precursors to a lawsuit. Conklin, who has worked at the district attorney’s office since 2008, and Santos, who has been there since 2015, assert that they have been targeted for termination because they spoke out about Rackauckas and his office. Santos said he also became the subject of false rumors that he had sexually harassed another employee.<aside class="trb_ar_sponsoredmod" data-v-ntidd="1069598" data-adloader-networktype="nativo" data-withinviewport-options="bottomOffset=100" data-load-method="trb.vendor.nativo.init" data-load-type="method" style="margin: 5px 0px 25px; clear: both; font-family: " times="Times" new="New" roman="Roman" font-size="font-size" px="px" background-color="background-color" rgb="rgb"><div class="tlod" plid="8778" style="display: inline;"><div id="tl_outer" class="ArticleSub" style="display: inline-block; margin: 20px 0px; width: 720px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); border-bottom: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); padding-bottom: 21.5938px;"><div id="tl_inner"><div style="clear: both;"></div></div></div></div></aside>“The culture in the OCDA office is one of punishing disloyalty,” Conklin’s claim stated. “DA Rackauckas transparently rewards his friends and punishes his enemies.”The district attorney’s office did not respond to a request for comment Saturday.

</div><div>Orange County District Attorney’s Office is calling on Harvard Law School’s

Fair Punishment Project to retract a report that ranked Orange County among

the worst in the state for cases reversed in which misconduct was a factor.</div><div>
</div><div>

District Attorney Tony Rackauckas, at a news conference Wednesday, Sept. 13,

said several mistakes were made in the Fair Punishment Report that gave an

unfair and inaccurate picture of his agency.

Rackauckas said his office had two cases reversed because of prosecutorial

misconduct in the six-year study period, making it 16th in the state per capita,

not No. 1 as initially reported per capita by Fair Punishment.</div><div>
</div><div> He also said his office had 18 findings of misconduct, ranking it 22nd in the state

per capita, not fifth per capita as reported by Fair Punishment.

“The public is being misled about the record and the integrity of OC prosecutors

by relying on an inaccurate study using the name of Harvard Law School to gain

undeserved credibility,” said a statement released by Rackauckas.</div><div>
</div><div> Rob Smith, executive director of the Harvard project, said he would not pull the

report, which was updated Monday, Sept. 11, because of earlier programming

errors. In the updated version, Orange County ranks fourth in terms of reversals

per capita related to misconduct by prosecutors.

“We stand by our work,” Smith said. “There’s a bigger problem in OC than we
