One wonders what the Democratic Assembly member, Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, intends by endorsing the present non-Democratic Yolo County district attorney since he doesn’t follow democratic values.
This district attorney remains neutral on Prop 39 (three strikes reform) but opposes Prop 47 (sentencing reform), Prop 57 (reduce mass incarceration), and Prop 64 (legal adult marijuana use). These four propositions Yolo County voters overwhelmingly approved. Cecilia Aguiar-Curry appears to oppose Yolo County voters.
Consider, then, this same district attorney has filed more felony trials in Yolo County (population 213,000) than has the district attorney in Alameda County (population 1,683,000) Felony trials are expensive ordeals. Yolo County has a 41 percent felony non-conviction rate compared to California’s average 19-percent felony non-conviction rate. Cecilia seems to support this effort.
Yolo County’s current district attorney requires the accused to plead guilty to a felony before getting into a program, e.g., mental illness court or restorative justice. Cecilia apparently approves of this strategy.
People have spoken to me about an innocent friend or relative in prison due to fabricated charges by the current district attorney system. Cecilia seemingly believes in this approach to injustice.
An exceptionally well-qualified Democratic-valued candidate is Dean Johansson who would use diversionary programs for those eligible, while going hard on career criminals. See how Dean Johanssons’s values line up with Yolo County voters at www.Dean4.DA.com .
Still one is wondering if Cecilia Aguiar-Curry is the representative that Democrat voters want in the California Assembly.
If one cares to contact Cecilia you can reach her at the following locations:

In just a few short months an election will be held for various public office positions, including that of district attorney for Lake County.
I’m a recent retiree after a 20-year career in law enforcement here in Lake County. During my career I met and worked with many people from other various law enforcement agencies, including those who work in the Lake County District Attorney's Office.
One of those people I had the fortunate pleasure of working with is Senior Deputy District Attorney Susan Krones, who is running for the office of district attorney of Lake County. I feel strongly that Susan Krones is the most qualified candidate for the position, and I’ll tell you why.
Susan Krones has been with the Lake County District Attorney’s Office since 1992, and during that time she has prosecuted thousands of felony and misdemeanor cases, including taking on a three- to four-year assignment where she was in charge of prosecuting all sex crimes against children cases within the county. These can be some of the hardest cases to deal with, but Susan handled them with her graceful tact and decorum. She made a huge difference to all those victims that she came in contact with.
But, regardless of the case, regardless of the circumstances, Susan Krones is a highly trained professional and always extends that courtesy to everyone.
Susan Krones is a veteran, having served in the U.S. Army from 1985 to 1991 as a captain with the Judge Advocate General, as well has having graduated from UCLA in 1981 and Hastings College of Law in 1984.
She is an avid reader of books and has her own book review show on local radio. Susan likes to go to various events that occur in and around Lake County, and is involved with the local theater group. She is very “community oriented,” to say the least.
All of her education and experience are only part of the reason that Susan Krones is the most qualified candidate for the position of Lake County district attorney.
Susan Krones is a woman with a conscience, and it shows in the life she’s lived, and how she treats others. Susan Krones is ethical beyond reproach, and I strongly believe she is a step in the right direction for the future of Lake County.
