Carolyn Smith and Dante Dayacap embezzled public funds of $872,000 dollars (your and my hard earned money) and all they get is 5 years probation and repayment of only what they stole? No fine on top of it? How sickening.

At least all those corrupt redevelopment agencies are being dismantled.

Let us NEVER forget or forgive those who violate that which is most sacred, our public trust:
