Next Court date for both in June 1, 2022
September 15, 2021 San Mateo County Government refused to identify the 2 Sheriff Deputies because they could. Write-In Candidate for San Mateo County Sheriff Heinz Puschendorf would have published the Booking Photos and on the daily News/Press Release acknowledged the arrests.
PC245(a) (4)-FELONY Assault by means likely to produce Great Bodily Injury
Shawnna Maltbie the City Manager of Daly City is responsible for the behavior of the Daly City Police Department. Munir Edais’ R.I.P. Father has asked Shawnna Maltbie for a Special Public Meeting to see if the Daly City Police Department followed their own Death Investigations Policy.
Daly City Police Department Death Investigations Policy
344.2.3 Death Cases Death investigations require specific investigation methods depending on circumstances and should be handled in accordance with the Death Investigations Policy. The handling officer should notify and apprise a supervisor of the circumstances surrounding the incident to determine how to proceed. The following cases shall be appropriately investigated and documented using the approved report: (a) Sudden or accidental deaths. (b) Suicides. (c) Homicide or suspected homicide
Eman Edais (new wife of 6 months) placed a 911 call to San Mateo County Dispatch at 1:59 AM on January 21, 2020.
Lorena Reyes the first Daly City Police Officer #2135 to respond to the scene. January 21, 2020 This is from her report. They have no children in common but she is 5 months pregnant with his child.
Eman Edais stated in the last two days they were arguing about an issue she did not want to disclose. She said he was sad and upset about the relationship.
I asked Eman Edais several times what was the issue they had; however, Eman said she did not want to talk about it because “His family will hate her.”
Eman repeatedly continued to say his death was “her fault,” but did not disclose why.
She told me there was a camera in bedroom #2 that was motion detection, however, Munir Mustafa Edais only had access to the application.
Eman also told me Munir Mustafa Edais was a police officer for Los Gatos Police Department.
At approximately 0247 = 2:47 AM I requested the San Mateo County Coroner’s Office be paged to my cell phone. Deputy Coroner Holly Benedict #15 called me and I advised her of the details to this case.
Daly City Police Officer Lorena Reyes had solved this Supicious Death Investigation in less than 45 minutes. That has to be some kind of record for San Mateo County Law Enforcement. She never secured the scene, didn’t remove Eman Edais from the apartment.
Any reasonable person would support the Public Audit of the Daly City Police Department, Lets see what the Daly City Government does.
On January 14, 2022 I published my first article about the More than $10M of PPE that was left outside unprotected at the San Mateo County Event Center I included a link to ABC7 News I-Team Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes excellent coverage and Breaking Story that included Interviews with Mike Callagy and Supervisor David Canepa who were quick to call this a Mistake. I said “This was not a Mistake”
A reasonable person might ask what would make me say that?
It’s really quite simple, I have been reporting on Organized Crime, Corruption, Money Laundering, Embezzlement in San Mateo County Government and the Courts for 22 years.
Again I say Thank You, Dan Noyes for bringing this very Important story to the San Mateo County Residents.
I was the first reporter to report that San Mateo County Risk Manager Scott Johnson had declared on NOVEMBER 10, 2022 that he had personally inspected the PPE outside the SMCEC and in his opinion it was a TOTAL LOSS. That is 64 days before Mike Callagy and David Canepa said it was a MISTAKE.
September 27, 2021 e-mail informing San Mateo County Government that the PPE is now OUTSIDE. That is 108 days before Mike Callagy and David Canepa said it was a MISTAKE.
From: Steve Perich sperich@smcec.co Sent: Monday, September 27, 2021 3:49 PM To: Iliana Rodriguez IRodriguez@smcgov.orgCc: Dana Stoehr dstoehr@smcec.co; Avinesh Pal apal@smcec.co Subject: PPE Update Hi Iliana, As you probably are aware, all PPE has been moved out of Fiesta Hall and is currently stored in a fenced area between Gates 9 & 10. The Red Cross was only able to take the 10 adjustable hospital beds (MASH type). Their storage area was not large enough to accommodate the remaining five bariatric beds nor the five “home style” hospital beds, all of which are in the outdoor storage area. The plan is to move as much as possible into Sequoia Hall after the SaaStr Conference, to protect it from the elements. The would require the County to rent Sequoia Hall as it would be filled with PPE. The following items would be relocated first. If any space remains, we will move the most useful of the remaining into Sequoia. Masks Gloves Beds All remaining FMS items and empty containers Bleach
Please let me know if you are in agreement with the above.
San Mateo County News.com is also requesting the Partnership Agreement mentioned above.
January 12, 2022 San Mateo County Department of Emergency Management DEM Director Daniel Belville who works directly for Mike Callagy communicated with James Brown President of Wine Country Marines out of Sonoma. The next day January 13, 2022 at 6:00 PM the WCM posted on their Facebook page:

Mr. Stogner,
There was no written agreement between the County and Wine Country Marines that predates the January 27, 2022 agreement I produced to you. There was no written agreement prior to January 13, 2022 at 6PM, and there is no separate Financial Agreement. Because Mr. Brown is not a County employee, I cannot know what he meant in his blog post, but as far as we are aware, he was not referring to a written record.
The reason I asked for this document is simple, every time someone gives me more than $10,000,000 of something I like to have some kind written verification, proof, evidence etc that I in fact do have the authority to distribute this PPE which was paid for with FEMA money.
It took San Mateo County Government 90 days to say the truth.
There was no written agreement between the County and Wine Country Marines on or before January 13, 2022.

That is not earth shattering News for San Mateo County Residents, SMC has a long History of Sheriff and UnderSheriff lying to the residents in public press releases, April 2007 is just one little example. SMC has Sheriff Sergeants and other Sheriff employees committing Felony crimes PC115(a) and even Perjury in the Courts. The Rachel Amanda Quintana case of Half Moon Bay and SMCSO Sergeant Mike Otte committing Perjury is just one example.
What date and time did San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy hire Alex Tourk for $15,000.00 per month to create and distribute a lie to the 760,000 residents of the County?
Mike Callagy should pay for Alex Tourk’s work out of his own pocket.
ABC7 I-TEAM Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes and James Brown President of the Wine Country Marines both made Public Announcements on January 13, 2022 about the PPE, San Mateo County Department of Emergency Management generous donation of the large amount of PPE that was to be distributed by WCM on January 25, 2022.
Dan Noyes accurately reported on January 13, 2022 that the value was more than $10,000,000.00
Dan Noyes accurately reported on January 30, 2022 the “Blatant Lie” from SMC Government Officials.
San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy on January 13, 2022 said “He did not know the value.”
This is where Alex Tourk, Principal of Ground Floor Public Affairs comes in the picture.
Less than 24 hours after SMC Manager Mike Callagy said he didn’t know the value, a PR piece is mass distributed on a bunch of Bot media news sites regurgitating the exact same B.S..
Here is what Alex Tourk, Mike Callagy and Michelle Durand put out to the residents at 3:30PM 1/14/22
“The estimated value of the supplies based on the original purchase prices is $7 million.”
Today’s Google search: Mike Callagy $7M PPE Here are the results of just the 1st page notice the names of these News sites. That is what a PR firm does.

San Mateo County Residents might recall seeing that exact Public Relations Spin in the Hillsborough resident Zain Jaffer Criminal case in October 2017 where he was arrested by the HBPD for Attempted Murder of his 3 year old son and 5 other Felony Counts. People vs. Zainali Jaffer 17NF012415A.
He is the only defendant that I am aware of who had already hired Michael S. Sitrick who the L.A. Times calls “The Wizard of Spin” who had already prepared a Press Release about Zain Jaffer’s case being completely dismissed before anybody knew that District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe and DDA Sharon Cho were going to ask a San Mateo County Judge to dismiss ALL of the charges. He (Zain Jaffer) read the prepared press release at court.

$23.5 Million is an update, I’ll give you that. 1:37:18 mark
Agenda Item #5 Update on Event Center Surplus Safety Equipment
This was the title for Agenda Item 5 of the March 22, 2022 Board of Supervisors Meeting. That might explain why there was only ONE public comment on this topic.
The person that put this on the Agenda was San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy, with the approval of County Counsel.
I would say this was more of a regurgitation of the same story that Mr. Callagy has been promoting since January 13, 2022, when he told ABC 7 I-Team Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes that he knew nothing about it.
In San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy’s Presentation he fails to mention these three, that I reported on the day before in the above article.
Deputy County Manager Iliana Rodriguez, San Mateo County Chief Financial Officer Roberto Manchia, Department of Emergency Management Director Daniel Belville.
County Manager to the Board of Supervisors March 22, 2022 “I think the Important thing is that we are TRANSPARENT. We own up to it, and we learn from it”
I personally think the Important thing is tell the truth from the Get Go.
Let me give a simple example, On January 13, 2022 SMC County Manager Mike Callagy never mentions James Brown or the Wine Country Marines a 501-C in Sonoma. He did say “We brought in the Marines.”
He doesn’t mention Iliana Rodriquez of his office has been vetting James Brown and WCM since December 2021.
Mike Callagy, Don Horsley, David Canepa, Carole Groom, Warren Slocom and Dave Pine. You are NOT TRANSPARENT.
Red Flag 1:39:00 mark, “The other goods were eventually moved outside for temporary storage and were regrettably ah remained there during the significant storms last fall LEADING TO THE INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION.” What do you know about this Independent Investigation so far? What is the scope of this Investigation? Is the Investigation about the significant storms? Why was there an update without having this Investigator make a presentation at the BOS meeting?
Red Flag 1:39:11 mark, “We’ve been lucky enough throughout this AFTER ACTION to really partner with Wine Country Marines to continue to work on distributing these surplus equipment. Everybody knows what an AFTER ACTION is, Right?
The residents of San Mateo County remember what the Foster City Gang of 3 did to their City Manager.
Foster City Manager Peter Prinejad was FIRED for ZERO reason. The residents of Los Altos Hills are the winners in that case they now have a Great City Manager.
San Mateo County Sheriff Carlos G. Bolanos doesn’t like to answer simple questions. He also doesn’t like to provide the Public with information that the public has a right to know.
Yesterday I asked him to confirm the identity of one George Ismael who was booked into San Mateo County Jail on December 24, 2021. The reason I was asking was that Carlos G. Bolanos has a very bad habit of witholding the Booking Photos, Names of “Those Who Matter” who happen to get arrested from the Daily Press/News Releases. It’s as if they never got arrested.
One of the very basic jobs the Sheriff’s Office does is Book people into the jail who are arrested by any law enforcement agency in San Mateo County. They keep a daily record and of course that information belongs to the public. The reason Carlos G. Bolanos does as he pleases is because the 5 County Supervisors couldn’t care less. It’s sort of their little secret, how Government really works.

Good morning Sheriff Bolanos
Can you please tell me if the George Ismael who was arrested and booked into San Mateo County Jail on December 24, 2021 is the same George Ismael who was arrested with Sheriff Deputy Juan P. Lopez in 2014 for Smuggling 2 cellphones and Drugs to a Hells Angel Gang Member who was an Inmate in Maguire Jail?
This is another perfect example of why I recommend ALL Booking Photos be released everyday. I wouldn’t have to bother you from your important work for this Public Information.
That You

As it turns out this is the same George Ismael that was arrested and Charged for Smuggling 2 Cellphones and Drugs to a Hells Angel Gang Member in the San Mateo County Jail the same jail he was just booked into. Also Sheriff Carlos G. Bolanos and his management TEAM probably thought it would be better to not inform the Voters that George Ismael used to work for Sheriff Bolanos as a Correctional Officer.
You might remember that San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy Juan P. Lopez was Falsely Charged with the exact same crime at the same time in 2014 even though all Investigators knew there was ZERO EVIDENCE connecting him to the crime. They didn’t care they thought it was funny.
Don’t forget former President of the BOS and now Candidate for Congress David Canepa is busy FUNDRAISING instead of taking care of San Mateo County Business, which is what you elected him to do.
This was one of the main reasons I started San Mateo County News.com in the first place.
This article Published by Jerry Lee and Jon Mays doesn’t show a reporter, and I can tell you there was nobody from SMDJ in the Courtroom 2B yesterday covering the Dionicio R. Lopez Sentencing Hearing on cases SC076512-A and SC082939-A. I was the only reporter attending which is par for the course in San Mateo County.
This is a perfect example of the Modern Day Media, “Those Who Matter” and Yesterdays News by Tomorrow that District Attorney James P. Fox R.I.P. and Deputy Chief District Attorney Stephen Wagstaffe typed about in their April 25, 2007 e-mails to then Sheriff Greg Munks and Undersheriff Carlos G. Bolanos.
San Mateo County jail inmate who acquired illegal goods sentenced

Linkedin Dionicio Lopez A jail inmate who conspired with two San Mateo County correctional officers in 2013 to acquire cellphones and drugs for use over several months has received three years probation, the San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office said Friday. Dionicio Lopez, a known gang member, was given two cellphones and Oxy Contin for several months and was allowed to use the cellphones openly in the county jail, the DA’s Office said. The incidents occurred from April to December of 2013. He received credit for a year of jail

Good Morning Mike, What is the name of the Investigator you hired? What date did you hire him/her?
What is the scope of the Investigation? Thank You Michael G. Stogner San Mateo County News.com
SMC Supervisor David CanepaSan Mateo County Manager Mike CallagySMC President of BOS Don Hoesley
The reason I asked this question is that Former President of the Board of Supervisors and current Candidate for Congress David Canepa refused to ask it at the January 25, 2022 BOS meeting Agenda Item 12. Now to be fair to David Canepa Not one of the Supervisors asked that question.
As of this moment 29 hours later Mike Callagy has not responded.
