======================================================================
In June 2012 I met a petitioner at the Chico CA Safeway who apparently once petitioned on the Walnut Creek Against Nieman-Marcus campaign. He said he was attacked and beaten at the Walnut Creek Safeway on Broadway. But in a unique special legal circumstances scenario is instantly declared mentally ill and immediately released to return back to streets or better termed "the get out of jail free card"
And the potentially effective Anti-Nieman-Marcus Coalition wins which is how they beat my case against Danville - they just beat the attorney up in 2006 like they beat me up in 2004, like they set my truck on fire but the CHP and San Ramon can't find a record of the fire?
In 2001 my attorney offices at 1776 Ygnacio Valley Road were targeted and torched. For six months I've called ConFire who said I don't know what fire, where? We can't find it.
Nieman-Marcus wins and the hot chicks get to flutter in Walnut Creek but there is no such thing as Free Elections in Contra Costa County. I suspect the petition drive stood a good chance of winning just like my litigation in 2006.

Walnut Creek CA: I never knew Chuck other than he probably served me at Havana Bar in Walnut Creek during the few times I was there. The troubling part of this accident is that I know Lafayette Police deliberately ignored a lead but that's why Chief Eric Christiansen should be removed as he wasn't exactly helpful in one of the many attempts on my life.
Charles Stephen Silverman
Jan 5,1983 - Oct 7,2012
AKA- Chuck, Papa, Charlie, Charro, Chuckles

Charles loved to go boating with friends, play golf, chess, and words with friends, and watch his favorite team, the 49ers, play football. Charles was a practical joker at heart and would seize the opportunity to make people laugh. One of his favorite past times was playing poker, of which, he did very well. Charles was in great shape and took pride in his appearance. He made the decision to return to college to pursue a degree in Business. He was a fun and outgoing man with the best laugh and smile that could brighten up the room. He worked at Havana in Walnut Creek for many years as a server and bartender.

Walnut Creek CA: The Suspicious deaths of Margaret Lesher and the son of former late Senator John A Nejedly, John T. Nejedly.
Under a Cloud of Suspicion / Gossip plagues man after wife's death
Sam McManis
Published
Editor's Note: Sam McManis takes over the thrice-weekly Contra Costa column from John King, who becomes The Chronicle's urban design writer. King's column on the new Ritz-Carlton resort is on Page One today. McManis, 41, has written columns and features for The Chronicle's Friday sections for three years. He has also been a reporter for the Los Angeles Times and a columnist for the Contra Costa Times.
Four nights a week, to wild applause and squeals of shock, he lies in the dirt and lets a 3,000-pound buffalo crush his chest. He sits astride the rampaging beast and soars through rings of fire. Toting .45-caliber rifles, his posse deftly shoots objects out of people's mouths.
At show's end, Collin "T.C." Thorstenson doffs his cowboy hat to bask in the approval of an adoring audience at the Rawhide Wild West Town in Scottsdale, Ariz. Folks cheer, they fawn, they pose for photos with him.
"People absolutely love his show," said Rawhide publicist Dawn M. Sullivan. "T.C.'s very popular."
But he also occasionally hears the whispers, the vicious gossip, the scurrilous accusations that he had something to do with the death of Orinda newspaper heiress Margaret Lesher nearly four years ago at a remote lake outside of the couple's Scottsdale ranch.
He hears the talk, but he chooses to tune out. Keep smiling, keep showing off his beloved buffalo, Harvey Wallbanger Jr. The show, you know, must go on.
"You got to get on with life," Thorstenson said in his first extended interview with a Bay Area reporter. "Things happen that are major, you still got to make a living. They're trying to throw s-- into my face all the time when what they say never happened."
If Thorstenson were to come back to Contra Costa -- where he is considered, in some social circles, as the male version of Anna Nicole Smith -- he'd hear a lot more than whispers about his six-month whirlwind marriage to Lesher, 25 years Thorstenson's senior.
Though the Maricopa County sheriff long ago ruled Lesher's death accidental,
and authorities say Thorstenson never was a suspect, some still point a finger at the widower.
These are people who crave neat and tidy endings, who want the closure only a criminal conviction would bring. To them, Thorstenson is the logical choice as the villain. He gained more than $5 million of Lesher's $100 million estate after her death. He was, remember, with her at the lake in the early-morning hours of May 14, 1997, when she disappeared. And he, in the minds of Lesher's relatives, never came off as sincere in the grieving-husband role.
"There's no one in this county who thinks my mother's death was an accident, " said Wendi Alves, one of Lesher's four daughters. "I mean, come on, I hear he sought out somebody like my mother. That's all I can say. My attorney doesn't want me to make any accusations. But I think the entire community thinks he had something to do with it."
Vanity Fair and People magazines have long since moved onto other scandalous celebrity deaths, ones with easily identifiable villains. Even "Hard Copy" dropped its weekly leering into the Lesher lives after Thorstenson was cleared.
In upscale Scottsdale and opulent Orinda, though, curiosity lingers. Thorstenson, 43, knows it and accepts it, but doesn't like it one lick. He sees himself as an O.J. Simpson figure, forever dogged by the taint of his wife's death. The major difference, he quickly notes, is that he never was arrested or even was officially a suspect in the investigation.
"There are some people who, every time they hear my name, think I had something to do with it," Thorstenson said. "They talk behind my back -- the reporters, the people up (in Contra Costa). It's a sorry situation when something like that happens.
"I'm a little bitter, to say the least. Unless you lose somebody you love, you probably won't ever understand how I feel. Picture something happening to your wife or kids and then have to (watch) people coming after you like you did it when you were 100 percent innocent. Wouldn't that put you in a defensive mode?"
Thorstenson and his bison haven't appeared in Northern California since 1998. These days, he works quietly at the 17-acre Scottsdale ranch he inherited from Margaret after an acrimonious out-of-court estate settlement with the Lesher children. He has an exclusive engagement, Thursdays through Sundays, to perform at the Rawhide Wild West Town in Scottsdale.
Rawhide is sort of a cowboy's Disneyland, and Thorstenson is its E-ticket ride. T.C.'s act is described on Rawhide's customer phone line as featuring "six-gun spinnin', cowboy mounted shootin', bullwhip crackin' and buffalo ridin' " fun.
Perhaps part of Thorstenson's appeal is the cowboy-widower storyline. Then again, it could just be his charismatic bison. Regardless, T.C.'s 15 minutes of infamy seems stuck on 14:59.
"You think I'm rich, but I work," Thorstenson said. "What's wrong with smiling and enjoying how you make a living? I personally guarantee that if anyone doesn't enjoy the show, I'll give them their money back. Not a single person has asked.
"People ask to come on down and have us shoot stuff they hold in their teeth. Between me and you, we know who we're picking out of the audience for that. It's important to have people who'll stand still while you shoot."
Trust him. Thorstenson certainly knows how to pick 'em.

Seems so sad to read how a mom drowned but even sadder when you look at the other cases connected to the same people. In 2004 my sons were nearly killed in a high speed maneuver that was an attempted murder but try finding the CHP records. The other driver was killed.
September 17, 1974 May 11, 2013 Resident of Napa Katie Perata, beloved wife of Nick Reilly Perata and mother of Taylor Nicole and Paige Elizabeth Perata, was born in Alameda, CA. She moved with her family to Napa, CA in 2006 where they ran a business together. A graduate of Cal State East Bay, Katie worked as a biologist prior to becoming a full-time mom. Katie was known for her creativity and sense of style, hosting wonderful children's parties featuring her elaborate custom cakes. She enjoyed spending hours volunteering at school with her girls. Katie is the loving daughter of Nancy Gannon Mongerson and Tom Gannon; sister of Amy Polk and sister-in-law of Jerry Polk; granddaughter of Clara Cox, Gordon Cox, Cecila Gannon and Bob Gannon; daughter-in-law of Don and Maureen Perata and Rosemary Reilly; sister-in-law of Becca Perata and aunt of Mia Rosati; and cherished niece, cousin and friend to countless many. Private funeral services have been held. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Vichy Parent Club, 3261 Vichy Ave., Napa, CA 94558. |

Obit: Michael S. McNulty
Michael S. McNulty
Sept.26,1980~Nov.10,2012
Resident of Walnut Creek
Will be missed by all who loved him dearly. A Funeral Service will be held at Higgins Chapel on Monday, Nov. 19, 2012 at 9:30 am, followed by a graveside committal service at Holy Cross Cemetery in Antioch, Ca.
Walnut Creek CA July 20 2013 Micheal McNulty was found dead of an apparent Gun Shot wound to the head on November 10th 2012. Like the other incidents in the area I placed him in my database and began searching. One reason was the name McNulty resonated with me but the other fatalities I'm tracking are connected to the head of the Contra Costa Bar but that person leads to Alamo 1st Alamo CA where I suspect Alamo 1st Members tried to kill me on 680 back in 2004 by rigging my F-250 truck oil with accelerant. I almost burned to death just like the Filipino Nurses did in the Limo Fire (Arson or Accident) which matches other Limo Fires in the Walnut Creek area.
The answer came when I was talking to a friend of someone who know Sue McNulty Rainey - then I realized he was the same "Uncle Fester" that frequented Tiki Toms where I play music. The sad part is I called the Humbolt Coroner who was more than candid which suggested the suicide is a cover story.
Why the concern - Few know this but Michael McNulty is the nephew of former Mayor Sue McNulty Rainey who married to former Sheriff Richard Rainey then later serving as State Senator Richard Rainey (R), so what are the chances of Don Perata's daughter in-law Catherine Perata drowning in a pool.
In Contra Costa County the powerful spin together mostly along party lines. The Republicans from Orinda, Lafayette, Walnut Creek, Alamo, Danville, San Ramon and Clayton. The Dems suck the putrid refinery gases north, west and east county. The attorneys mostly are republicans and a fair amount of political power is Danville.
The deputies live in Seeno built homes and the rest live in early crappy Seeno Homes. It took them 30 years to learn how to build a good house - too bad for their misfortune.
