San Mateo County News.com was started for the sole purpose of Making San Mateo County Safer for the Residents.
Rishi Kumar a Candidate for Congress is the ONLY candidate running for ANY office in ALL of San Mateo County who has demonstrated he is interested in that same goal.
That is why he is the ONLY candidate San Mateo County News.com has Endorsed this election.
Just ask Mark Racop the Batmobile builder from Indiana or The Edais Family of Daly City.
Rishi Kumar was the only politician that had the fortitude to not only stand up for me when the ridiculous accusations were made against me, but he actually showed up in the court room to demand the charges be dropped. If he’s willing to go that far to help a stranger in a far-off state, he’s going to work even harder for you, in yours. I believe in Rishi, and you should too. Mark Racop, licensed 1966 Batmobile replica seller and builder.
I hope this is helpful in your campaign.

Mark Racop, Owner Fiberglass Freaks
Mark Racop
Did any other Elected Official or Candidate for any office bother to make a simple phone call to Mark Racop to express his/her outrage as to the Abuse of Power by San Mateo County Employees?
This is a civil, not a criminal matter, Everybody and their mother knows this.
We already know what did happen, the main question now is why is this case still ACTIVE?

I will be there in person because Mark Racop has to fly out from Indiana to say two words, Not Guilty in PERSON in San Mateo County County because a Judge has ordered him to appear in person. He is not allowed to appear on ZOOM for this arraignment hearing. Remember he lives and works in Indiana.
Some of you might have heard of this case since ABC 7 Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes broke the story of the July 19, 2022 Search Warrant being served on Mark Racop at his place of business in Indiana by a four man TEAM of San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office finest. The plan was to arrest Mark Racop and bring him all the way back to San Mateo County to TEACH HIM and others a lesson about the power of the Sheriff’s Office, District Attorney’s Office, Judges, County Counsel and the Supervisors of San Mateo County.
Mark Racop’s case has received worldwide attention because of the Batmobile replica that his company Fiberglass Freaks makes by hand.
The majority of the 22,000 comments made from the 10M VIEWS in 2 months have been similar.
Here are just 2 recent comments:
It’s hard to believe that the Sheriff double down on his stupid actions with a stupid statement that he would ask the same thing of investigators whenever a “Potential Crime” came to his attention. You don’t issue search and arrest warrants for potential crimes, you investigate and come up with some basic evidence to support what your buddy told you. How did a judge get conned into signing these warrants? Did the Sheriff use his friendship with the Judge to influence the warrants? Was the whole story disclosed to the judge? Assuming there was a contract, the purchaser was in breach of contract when he failed to make a timely payment. The consequence of the missed payment was not losing his money or his Batmobile, but merely losing his position in the queue. This is a civil, not a criminal matter.
The sad thing is this is probably the tip of the iceberg when it comes to this sheriff’s corruption. Given that county sheriffs are primarily responsible for property seizures and evictions, there should be an investigation to see if the sheriff misused his authority on behalf of his realtor friend. If so, this story instantly becomes something much bigger and something that should lead to prison sentences for both the sheriff and the realtor.
The Batmobile case has shinned a light on San Mateo County Government when no other case I’m aware of has done. The great news is nobody was Murdered or Executed by the Sheriff’s Office Employees this time.
This behavior is more the norm in San Mateo County, just look at the ret. Sheriff Deputy Juan P. Lopez case and the Edais Family vs. Coroner Robert Foucralt case as current examples.
Please check back for updates as to the Status of this case and the Friday In-person hearing, I hope to see you there.
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)
As many of my readers know I have said San Mateo County Courts should be CLOSED until the 5 Supervisors of San Mateo County can assure the Public of Fair and Honest Hearings. The Supervisors have REFUSED to do that they have ZERO interest in doing that. The results are predictable.
The Criminal Case against San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy Juan P. Lopez is just 1 of the many cases I have reported on for 8 years now. Notice there are three case numbers, Why?

15-SF-001819-E | The People of the State of California vs. JUAN PABLO LOPEZ
SF395377F | The People of the State of California vs. JUAN PABLO LOPEZ
Does anybody remember this?
Do you remember what happened to that case and those charges? Do you care?
The Criminal Charges against Juan P. Lopez a San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy were FALSE.
Let that FACT sink in for a few minutes.
San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Joseph Scott did not file for re-election. WHY?
Attorney Tony Serra said he Committed Perjury, I wonder if that had anything to do with it?
Attorney Tony Serra said San Mateo County Sheriff Office Detective Andrew Armando Committed Perjury.
If Tony Serra was wrong he would have been criminally charged and lost his License to Practice Law.
The question I have for all of the RESIDENTS of San Mateo County is, WHY are you OK with your Government Officials and the Judicial Branch Committing Felonies against a San Mateo County Sheriff Deputy.
If they can do it to a Sheriff Deputy, take a wild guess who else they can do it to, anytime they want.
San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Joseph Scott made the order that Juan P. Lopez’s case could NOT be observed on ZOOM right after he (Judge Scott) was accused of PERJURY.
Friday 9:00 AM Courtroom 2G IN PERSON ONLY
09/16/2022 Status Conference Judicial Officer Scott, Joseph C. Hearing Time 09:00 AM Comment Status of Jury Selection/proceeding to trial
September 13, 2022 the Board of Supervisors held the regular meeting at 9:00 AM.
At the end of public comment BOS President called one of the speakers a LIAR.
This might be one of the reasons the Supervisors are not supposed to respond to Public Comment.
Don Horsley “I never really respond to or talk about public comment, I will on one case.”
” There was a really inflammatory charge about a Deputy Sheriff Murdering somebody, that simply was flat untrue.” Let’s find out who is telling the TRUTH.
I was one of the speakers and I sent this e-mail to Don Horsley yesterday to find out which member of the public he was calling a LIAR and what caused him to make that statement.

Hello Don,
Right after the public comment you felt compelled to assure the Public that one of the speakers made a statement about a citizen being Murdered by the SMC Sheriff’s Office was completely False.
Can you identify for me who that public speaker was, I’m sure you are not talking about me.
What I said was the VIDEO the Government made Public shows Sandra Lee Harmon was Executed.
Here is that video produced by the Sheriff’s Office and the District Attorney’s Office. I’m guessing you have never bothered to watch it.
Rishi Kumar takes ACTION, If you want something done call Rishi.
How many of you reading this know that you are responsible for your Governments behavior.
Mark Racop is a part time minister that lives in Indiana, he also owns a small business that makes the 1966 Batmobile car. He is the only person licensed by DC Comics to build that car.
On July 19, 2022 an elite gang of 4 San Mateo County Sheriff Employees lead by SMCSO Lt. Michael Leishman arrived at Mark Racop’s business which is named Fiberglass Freaks, with the intention of Kidnapping the person, and taking possession of a unfinished 1966 Batmobile car and tow it back to Atherton, California.
In order to accomplish this BLACK-OPS MISSION you can just imagine how many San Mateo County Employees, Elected Officials including Judges were involved.
SMCSO Lt. Michael Leishman in the casual flannel is the LEADER. NO Body Worn Cameras. Why?
The response most reasonable people say when they first hear about this is “They Can’t Do That”
The FACT is They Did Do That. What are you going to do about it.
There are FOUR Candidates for Congress in this next Election.
Rishi Kumar is the only Candidate I’m aware of who not only CALLED Mark Racop.
Rishi Kumar took time out of his very busy schedule to attend Mark Racop’s August 19, 2022 Court Hearing in Redwood City, California.
The Daly City Police Department had their own Instagram page on March 15, 2021 where the public could comment on it. I should say where some members of the public could comment.
The Daly City Police Department NEVER Investigated the Suspicious Death of Munir Edais as a Potential Homicide. As a matter of FACT they NEVER Investigated his death at all.
The reason I say that is the 911 call was made at 1:59 AM and 54 minutes later the case was closed. The wife said he hung himself, the Daly City Police Department said OK I guess that does it, Case Closed.
San Mateo County News.com would like to know WHO at Daly City Police Department Blocked Munir Edais’s 17 year old sister for posting on the Government’s Instagram Page because she thought her brother’s death deserved to be Investigated as a Potential Homicide. I agree with Sereen Edais so do 31,056 other decent and good Human Beings who signed the Petition.
“I got blocked on March 15, 2021, because I kept commenting #justiceformunir under their posts and I kept tagging our instagram page. Also, this happened when our instagram blew up and got a lot of attention, so many other people were spamming their comments as well. I have a photo of when I posted about it. I don’t know who blocked me, and they didn’t tell me why.”
The Daly City Police Department could have AVOIDED any unpleasant comments on their Instagram page by simply conducting a HOMICIDE INVESTIGATION of the Very Suspicious Death of Munir Edais a 32 year old Police Officer. Instead they chose CENSORSHIP/BLOCKING a Teenager.
This was a Police Officer and a Marine, something to think about when you think about Violent Protesters. Notice how clear the AXON BODY WORN CAMERA photo is.
September 1, 2022 U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta sentenced Thomas Webster, 56, to 10 years in prison plus three years of supervised release, noting that along with Rathbun, “the other victim was democracy.” Webster retired from the NYPD in 2011 after 20 years. He served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1985 to 1989.
Thomas Webster’s prison sentence is the longest so far among roughly 250 people who have been punished for their role in the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021. The previous longest was shared by two other rioters, who each were sentenced to seven years and three months in prison.
Do Law Enforcement Officers ever break the Law? Of course they do, they are human beings, Nobody is above the law.
