The Saga on the part of the corrupt in power to hide records of an alleged pedophile, Alberto Ocegueda, continues. Each step taken by those in the network of power is mind boggling. Jaime Esparza and his cronies used to bob and dodge and always had some legal loophole to hide behind but what they have done with this is open illegality.--Enters assitant county attorney Holly Lytle.
On September 3, 2008 Stuart Leeds and I went to see District Clerk Gilbert Sanchez in the late morning. We wanted to see the files on Alberto Ocegueda's false expunction (2007-2768) and our file to undo the expunction (2008-1016). Sanchez and his assistant Robert Simental (brother of attorney Sergio Coronado who ran for County Judge last round, lost and threw his weight behind Anthony Cobos and who may be seeking a bid for the 168th court) were present. Stuart had first called and spoken to Simental who told Stuart that Judge Pendergrass' orders had not come in yet. Stuart and I then went personally to the Clerk's office and found the two of them, Sanchez and Simental standing together, relaxed, surveying the scene at the clerk's office like two farmers hanging over a country fence gazing at their pasture.
Gilbert said that the orders had come in (contradicting what Simental had told Stuart on the phone earlier that morning). We asked to see the files and Gilbert had Simental hand us both files. We went through the files and told Simental that we wanted certified copies of everything in the files and we would come back later for those since it would take some time. I told him that we wanted a copy of the order granting the original expunction right then and there which he provided. That order shows that Judge Angie Barill in fact granted the illegal expunction and the County Attorney’s Office AGREED to it as evidenced by the signature of one of it attorneys. The County Attorney should have been fighting Ocegueda's expunction as his office does on everyone else who does not meet the criteria of the expunction statute. Also remember that Judge Barill, during the one hearing we had before her on the matter, tried to blame her predecessor for signing the order granting the illegal expuction when she knew good and well it was she who had signed the order. She had the damn file in front of her and could see it was her signature on the order. What a liar she is.
While looking at Judge Pendergrass' two orders (one setting aside as void Barill's original order of expunction and ordering Ocegueda’s arrest records for aggravted sexual assault of a child back into the public files and the other ordering the consolidation of the two cases 2007-2768 and 2008-1016) we noticed that they had not been filed. When a document is filed, it is placed in a stamp time machine and the date and time are marked on the face of it. We asked Gilbert for copies of the two orders and he said “I can’t give you copies of the orders and I am not filing the orders.” Shocked, I asked him why he couldn’t give us copies of our own orders and he said that the county attorney told him not to because someone may want to appeal. I asked Gilbert, “How does someone appeal an order they can’t have?” He said to ask the county attorney. I said the County Attorney has nothing to do with this other than to have wrongly agreed to the original expunction in the first place. I told him the County Attorney has a conflict of interest in this and “Your job is to FILE orders and maintain the records.” Gilbert said, “You’re putting me between a rock and a hard place.” There was a moment of silence when he looked at us and then at Simental and then at us again wondering what to do. Simental, being the weak kneed on the government tit employee that he is, said NOTHING. Stuart told Gilbert, “Gilbert do the right thing, FILE the order.” Gilbert then said “No.”
Today we received a copy of a letter asst. county attorney Holly Lytle wrote to the Texas Attorney General. Who is Holly Lytle? Well she is an obscure attorney bureaucrat who used to work for Esparza before she went to work for County Attorney Jose Rodriguez. One hardly ever sees her even at the lunch hour in the county cafeteria. She now handles open records requests at the County Attorney's Office. But there she was little Ms. Lytle bigger than life on TV during early voting being interviewed for the Ashlie Hardway, channel 7 KVIA ABC, slam defamation piece on me. The insinuation was that I could not possibly legally have gotten records from the county with Ocegueda’s identifying information, i.e. SS number and TX driver’s license number. Oh no! The county NEVER gives out that information. It’s always redacted, the county through its attorney Holly Lytle and channel 7 Ashlie Hardway would want you to believe. This is the same reporter Hardway who reported on the world wide web her husband wanted to get a job with the Police department, the same police department I accused of being in cahoots with DA Esparza in matters of corruption.
Well that insinuation that Hardway, through the clip on Lytle, left you with is a lie. We know it is a lie first of all because my friend attorney Sam Snoddy in fact got those records UNREDACTED through a simple open records request at the counter at the Sheriff’s Office. . In fact, Mr. Snoddy has an affidavit to prove it provided by the Sheriff’s department. I gave the affidavit to channel 7, Hardway's channel, BEFORE the election. (I have an e-mail from Hardway to the Sheriff's department AFTER the election and her slam piece on me asking about the affidavit.) Who would even dare to call into question the word of Sam Snoddy who has spent the last 40 years being an Eagle Scout leader and who has never told a lie to anyone? The likes of Lytle, Hardway, Esparza, etc? Secondly, not DAYS after Lytle made that proveably absurd remark to the public did Stuart receive a copy of Attorney Chris Bradley’s PAY VOUCHER TO THE COUNTY OF EL PASO, a document we had requested through an OPEN RECORDS REQUEST with the county auditor's and there was Bradley's social security number, unredacted and all. What about THAT Ms. Lytle and Ms. Hardway? (Remember in this sordid cast of characters, Bradley was the special prosecutor who declined to prosecute Oceguedashe is a former employee of Esparza and married to the ong time former head of the Police union, etc., etc.)
But the most telling evidence that what Ms. Lytle and Ms. Hardway from channel 7, KVIA, would have you believe is a lie is what Lytle's very own office files every day of the week. The County Attorney files lawsuits to terminate the parent-child relationship on behalf of CPS. Ms. Lytle’s own office, through her own colleagues, files these petitions all day long with WHAT on them? You guessed it, people’s social security numbers and drivers license numbers. I have a WHOLE cabinet full of these petitions filed by the County Attorney as I represent parents in CPS proceedings. I gave examples of these petitions to channel 7 which they never presented to you. Why was Ms. Lytle, who is generally like a mole and never surfaces from her hole in the ground so willing to go on TV to be part of Hardway's story that was premised on falsehoods? Could it be because Esparza refused to prosecute County Attorney Jose Rodriguez’ son, Nicolas Rodriguez, on felony Possession of Marihuana charges? (Remember that a few years back only reported on by the Diario?) Lytle now works for Rodriuguez. And round and round we go. Do we have to stick together?
Now Holly Lytle, in her capacity as a prosecutor for the People of the Great State of Texas, is writing the Texas Attorney General asking that they STILL not have to turn records over to us because the order undoing the ILLEGAL expunction which SHE AGREED to might still be appealed. Lytle wrote the AG “The attorney representing Mr. Ocegueda has indicated that he does intend to file an appeal." How does Lytle know Spencer is going to appeal? Who has she been talking to? What does she care if Spencer appeals? Did she give him a copy of the orders and why not us. She should care about whether an expunction was gotten legally or not and if records have been destroyed legally or not. She should be on our side if she were clean. Why is she now acting on behalf of Joe Spencer who can do his own talking and who obviously filed a false petition for expunction which did not meet the statute? Spencer's false petition for expunction led to the illegal destruction of arrest records on an alleged child molestor, Alberto Ocegeuda, who continues to teach at a public school. IS YOUR HEAD SPINNING YET!
But what was most telling about Lytle's letter to the AG was what she stated, “Please note that these orders were signed by Judge Carl Pendergrass on August 28, 2008 and filed with the clerk on September 2, 2008.” First, why does Lytle have copies of orders on our case and we don’t? Gilbert Sanchez gave them to her, his own attorney, but not to us, the attorneys of record! She is not an attorney or a party on our case? She has copies of our orders and we the attorneys of record do not? Why is Gilbert giving her copies but not us? See how this game is played? See anything remotely wrong with this scene? Think you or your loved ones would get this same treatment?
Secondly, and what is most telling about the lytle game Sanchez and Jose Rodriguez and Jaime Esparza are playing is that Lytle says the orders were filed on September 2, 2008? How does she know? When Stuart and I went to see Gilbert on September 3, 2008 the orders most definitely did not have file stamps on them and furthermore Gilbert said he was flat out refusing to FILE the orders. This was on the THIRD.
I would like to see the orders. The file stamps on them or not on them will tell me many things. First if there is no file stamp on them, they still have not been properly and legally filed. If there are file stamps indicating that they were filed on September 2, 2008, I state here uncategorically that Gilbert is backdating his filings and tampering with the machines because Stuart and I saw with our own FOUR eyes that there were no file stamps on the orders as of the morning of the THIRD of September and I told you all about it on my blog. If the file stamps show a date other than September 2, 2008 then the question is, why is Holly Lytle telling the AG they were filed on September 2, 2008?
I will make available by link here the letter Lytle wrote to the AG seeking to keep Ocegueda’s records out of the public light and acting as attorney for Ocegueda, et. al. She argues that the order expunging, which her office AGREED to, needs to be kept in place even though it is an illegal order. You will also see where she talks about the orders having been filed on September 2, 2008. Oh what scum we have for our public officials and the dishonest rodents they hire to be their bureaucrats. Oh what a tangled web we weave…
