The Topic is the August 16, 2022 Letter aka The ASK from County of San Mateo County Executive Mike Callagy to Rob Bonta the Attorney General for the State of California.
Lets have a discussion.
Michael Stogner is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
Topic: Michael Stogner’s Zoom Meeting Time: Sep 19, 2022 06:30 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
Come join me tomorrow June 24, 2022 at 9:00 AM in Courtroom 2G in person if you support Law Enforcement like I do and show your support for forced to retire Sheriff Deputy Juan P. Lopez who was Falsely Charged in the first place 7.5 years ago. You might question why IN PERSON and not on ZOOM? The answer is simple, The Honorable Judge Joseph Scott has ordered NO ZOOM for the Deputy Lopez Case. MASK UP.
Is a SMC Judge, Clerk, & Court Reporter committing Perjury, Newsworthy?
Where do you get your Information? Who do you trust to provide honest and accurate Information about your government?
Contact your trusted News Sources and ask the Editors why they chose to ignore this information?
Former SMCSO Deputy Juan P. Lopez
Former San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy Juan Pablo Lopez is made of the Right Stuff. I have been reporting on his Political Prosecution for the last 7 years. When a person is arrested and Criminally Charged with crimes, ask yourself, How long do you expect the Judicial Process to last before a Conviction or the entire case is Dismissed, like the Zain Jaffer case was in 8 months? He was arrested for Attempted Murder of his 3 year old son. Why has this case taken so long? What if the case was brought to teach everybody a lesson, and there was Never any intention to take it to a Jury trial, Simply Destroy a San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy who is not a member of the “Those who Matter” Team. Think of the Financial and Emotional costs for the last 7 years.
They made a mistake/miscalculation when they went after San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy Juan P. Lopez. He didn’t FOLD.
Former San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy Juan Pablo Lopez, has always wanted a Jury Trial. He has never wavered, the Government has done everything possible to keep their people off of the Witness Stand for the last 7 years. The answer is simple, It’s not Illegal for the Involved parties to lie to reporters, or produce false press releases to their favorite misinformation businesses. However it is Illegal to make false statements under Oath.
Now that only matters if you have a District Attorney who will Prosecute a Judge, Clerk, Reporter, for Perjury.
Now the Question needs to be asked by the 760,000 San Mateo County Residents, Have they been Arrested yet, Have they been Criminally Charged yet? Has anything happened to them yet? If not Why Not?
The answer is simple: They are on the “Those Who Matter” Team.
In case you are not aware of the “Those Who Matter” team/gang, the first time I’m aware of any written evidence of it’s existence was April 25, 2007, in these e-mails I received from a CPRA request in 2008.
You will notice the top two San Mateo County District Attorneys Never asked Sheriff Greg Munks and UnderSheriff Carlos G. Bolanos, Why did you both go INSIDE that single family residence at 3474 Eldon Street, Las Vegas, Nevada that night? To be fair Not One San Mateo County Elected Official ever asked that simple question.
An 11 year old could figure out Who in San Mateo County is Responsible for the PPE Scandal at the San Mateo County Event Center.
It’s San Mateo County Executive Officer Mike Callagy.
Supervisor David Canepa who is also a Candidate for Congress who has been spending a lot of his time and SMC Taxpayer Money on fundraising and standing on corners promoting himself for Congress.
The Palo Alto Daily Post recently published this:
Then, earlier this year, there was the scandal over the $10 million in personal protective equipment, or PPE, that was left outside in the rain at the county Event Center. The coverup was worse than the crime. The county tried to mislead people about the dollar amount of the PPE damaged and failed to identify who was responsible for this fiasco.
The Palo Alto Daily Post knows who is responsible. All of the Candidates for Supervisor knew who is responsible. Only one Candidate for Supervisor told me that Mike Callagy should be fired.
That Candidate for District 2 Supervisor of San Mateo County was Mr. Cameron Rolfe.
The Five Supervisors of San Mateo County don’t want the residents/voters to know the Truth about the More than $10M of PPE purchased with Federal Grants FEMA according to James Brown President of the Wine Country Marines of Sonoma.
On January 13, 2022 Mike Callagy County Manager and Supervisor David Canepa, Candidate for Congress, both high ranking San Mateo County Government Officials told ABC 7 News Investigative Reporter/Journalist Dan Noyes who broke the story that they didn’t know anything about the More than $10,000,000.00 of PPE that was moved out of the SMC Event Center. They both were QUICK to identify this as a MISTAKE, and they had NO Idea how this happened, “They were calling in the Marines” and an Independent Investigation was going to be ordered to make sure this never happened again. Notice the Investigation was not meant to identify How many San Mateo County Employees knew about this and for how long.
Here is one of Mike Callagy’s employees who knew in September: Iliana Rodriguez,
I offer these 2 e-mails as a start, this is getting close to answer the question, Who Ordered the More than $10M of PPE to be moved from the secure and protected building at San Mateo County Event Center in September 2021?
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.
Thanks, Steve

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.

$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.
It’s a SIMPLE Question and the Government has not answered it for 58 days. Why?
It’ really a shame the 5 Supervisors of San Mateo County continue to refuse to do their job. But when you put it in perspective More than $10,000,000.00 of PPE being given to James Brown on or before January 13, 2022 is really nothing compared to what the 5 Supervisors did to San Mateo County Residents on April 21, 2007.
One of the Supervisors is a candidate for Congress, The Voters will decide, Supervisor David Canepa said on January 25, 2022 “I don’t think It’s a San Mateo County Issue.” I’m pretty sure it is.
Here is what I Hand Delivered on March 1, 2022 because the Supervisors refused to do their job.
Item 15. Recommendation to confirm the appointment of Kristina Bell to the Mental Health and Substance Abuse Recovery Commission, representing Law Enforcement, for an initial term ending September 30, 2024.Sponsors: Supervisor Dave Pine
If Agenda Item 15 is talking about San Mateo County Sheriff Captain Kristina Bell who has been identified by the City of San Carlos as their Police Chief, I would recommend Item 15 be removed from the agenda until the 5 Supervisors can ask her about the Domestic Violence call Redwood City Police Officers responded to at her residence, which San Mateo County News.com reported about on May 22, 2018. This is an example of “Those Who Matter”

Why wasn’t San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy placed on Administrative Leave January 13, 2022?
January 13, 2022 ABC 7 Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes was reporting on MORE than $10M of PPE outside and unprotected from the elements and theft. He reported a Convoy of Garbage Trucks removing PPE within the last 2 months from the site. Here are some questions he asked Mike Callagy on January 13, 2022.
Mike Callagy is San Mateo County Manager.
DAN NOYES: “Can you give me an idea of the amount of money we’re talking?”
MIKE CALLAGY: “I don’t know. There’s a lot of PPE out there.”
DAN NOYES: “Is it safe to say over a million?”
MIKE CALLAGY: “I would say, oh yeah, I would say over, over a million.”
DAN NOYES: “Is it multiple millions or-“
MIKE CALLAGY: “I don’t know. But it’s, it’s, it’s, there’s a lot of PPE out there.”
SMC Supervisor David CanepaSan Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy
Supervisor David Canepa, Could you please take some time off from your FUNDRAISING and FOCUS on San Mateo County ISSUES. Please tell Mike Callagy the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to put the VIDEO up so the Public may view it.
Also just a reminder to the public, the County Manager position is an at-will employee, the person/s responsible for his/her behavior is the SUPERVISOR/S.
Supervisor David Canepa, You along with Don Horsley, Warren Slocum, Carole Groom, Dave Pine are RESPONSIBLE for the performance of Mike Callagy as San Mateo County Manager.
It’s been 6 days since the January 25, 2022 BOS Meeting. The subject matter was more than $10,000,000.00 of PPE given to Wine Country Marines on or before January 13, 2022. Source ABC 7 Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes.
