**NEWS RELEASE FROM SHERIFF BENEDICT**
**PUBLIC RECORDS REQUEST FOR ANIMAL LICENSES**
Recently the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office received a Public Records Act (PRA- RCW 42.56) request from Port Angeles resident Adam Chamberlin as follows:
----Please provide me with a CD containing all of the licensed pets in Clallam County, including license numbers, owner information, and all other pertinent information. Please provide me an invoice for the compilation of these records and I will pay upon pickup.---
First Steve Markwell, now this. What the..? Why, why would Adam Chamberlin, the thrice convicted felon, be requesting this information? Can anyone offer any insights into this bizarre - and now, apparently withdrawn - request?
Woof! Woof! Watch out! Madam likes to fetch
sawed-off shotguns! Woof! Woof!
You should be asking why the Sheriff is posting this? I mean, I can agree with the Madam post about the Sheriff being a whiny bitch about this. It is not the Sheriff's job to ask -- just fulfill the damn request.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Madam, she's feeling a bit miffed that no one is talking about her (and her tiny peepee).
She has a pomeranian....quite the manly dog (NOT).
It just goes to show EVERYONE what a wack job Madam Chamberlin is.
ReplyDeleteAny doubts out there?
Adam CHamberlin FB post claims he is innocently planning on starting a free service to find and reunite missing pets with their owners. He made some disparaging remarks about the incredibly successful Pet Posse asking for donations when they have located and reunited pets and owners. And of course He had to toss in his views about the Pet Posse advertizing in Port O Call where Dale Wilson selfishly allows them to list missing and found pets in the newspaper. It was all an innocent attempt at providing a better free service. It never occurred to him I guess to donate all that free time to the Pet Posse and their incredibly successful free service or that the Sheriff might have some reservations and feel the need to warn the public before turning over every licensed Clallam County pet owners name, address and phone number to a person with weapon and theft felonies.
ReplyDeleteSeems these clowns think destroying a legitimate business is all fair and good? Is that a two-way street?
DeleteAlso I would like to add that many of the Our Town ilk are all in a huff about the Sheriffs posted notice and concern for public safety and many of them have stated that Sheriff Benedict will not be getting their vote in any future election. I am a felon with outstanding fines and thus unable to vote. Many of the Our Town members are also felons, They won't be voting either.
ReplyDeleteAh, yes. With a group of vigilantes and their supporters influencing elections, how can anything go wrong?
DeleteHow many times in human history have we seen this, before? Will we see people running around with machetes hacking people to death, that don't meet the proper criteria?
Oh? Not that brutal? Too extreme an example? Maybe rounding everyone up you have suspicions about, and put them on trains to "work camps" fits better?
How far to the bottom of "humanity" does this have to go, before reasonable people say "Enough is enough!"??
And nothing about this in the PDN this morning...But...
ReplyDeleteThere is an article about O-Hole's criminal past. Though these things are absolutely legit to discuss during an election, Jake Oppelt says: “It’s a joke you’re even talking about it.”
ReplyDeleteThere's a joke there, alright, Jake...You got a mirror?
Jakeo had an opportunity to "come clean" when he was asked on the radio if he had "issues" from his past that might be of interest to voters.
DeleteHe lied his ass off then. What may have been excused as youthful indiscretions now look like a pattern of deceit still hanging around him. He lies to the police and now he is lying to voters.
Someone needs to alert Paul Gottlieb about Jake's arrest at the downtown Texaco station several years ago, that was eventually dropped on a technicality, where Jake was initially charged with stealing beer at 2am - during which the arresting officer (John Nutter) found cocaine on his person. He was owner of Gastro Pub at the time. Suffice to say, the police dept. dropped both charges on technicality reasons i.e. the search and discovery of cocaine supposedly went beyond the original beer stealing charge.
DeleteLeave it to blowhard Matthew Rainwater to defend Jake in the PDN article. Gee, I wonder if someone without Republican affiliation would receive the same level of support.
DeleteThe fact they are selling the amazing Mr. O-hole as the second coming of JC should be frightening anyone who has a half a working brain cell.
DeleteMystery investors. Newspaper is joking to ask any questions about his shady past. People support him as a "businessman". (How hard is it to be a money launderer?)
How many bastard kids does he have? He's the perfect "baby daddy", isn't he. Hope he pays his child support -- because the businesses won't be all that successful if the state sucks away deadbeat cash.
And of course, there's the article announcing that the CTRC's Pixie Bob will be retiring...Which will open up more time for him to play pickleball...
ReplyDeleteI guess all the success is just wearing the pixie dust right on out of poor Bob. Happy retirement.
DeleteHe flapped his gums as instructed, took the payola, now he's running off. Nothing more than that. Another crime, another day.
DeleteYeah, Pixie, get out while the getting is good, and launder that money so when the whistle-blowers start making noise, and this whole scam falls like a house of cards, you can be in an non-extraditable country.
DeleteAnd, then wait when it really gets BAD, when the workers comp claims start from everyone inhaling all those nano particles.
Composites crushed and ground up release abundant amounts of nano-particles into the air (several billion times greater than making the original composites). The fibers are worse than asbestos.
We'll all hear about it when the poor kids duped into working there start filing disability claims, or dropping dead.
Pixie will be sitting on some tropical island sipping his drink with an umbrella in it.
Nope, I'm not nuts. It's already been well researched. Human and animal studies have shown that inhaled nanoparticles can travel from the lungs into the bloodstream, causing cardiovascular disease, lung problems, and more. No OSHA standards yet, because no one is doing this -- except our morons. Why? Because any real company is going to need to take major precautions and risk to keep the workers safe -- so it will end up in a 3rd world country.
But until then bon voyage Pixie Bob.
And finally...Don't be fooled by the handful of comments here thus far on this subject. Between the time I went to bed last night, and logging on here this morning, PAU had over 700 pageviews! So, gee, SOMEONE is interested in Madam's Pet Parade...
ReplyDeleteAnd there are all the posts you filter out so you don't have to deal with reality.
ReplyDeleteNo, there are a few comments that I don't allow because they are in no way connected to reality. That is the actual standard. And this blog is all about the reality of Port Angeles.
DeleteI am curious what Anon 6:22 thinks IS the reality in Port Angeles that is being "filtered out". Care to elaborate?
DeleteI'm hoping you filter out the ones who can't get beyond the vulgar language.
DeleteHow cool would it be for a three time felon to have a list of all the homes not to burglarize because they have a dog. Or, be able to call the dog by name when he comes up on the property late at night. Just remember Mark Nichols had a chance to get this whack-job off the streets and he muffed it. Nichols had him in his sights. Had four good cases to take before a jury. Already had a jury planned. Then Nichols, for no apparent reason, dropped two misdemeanors and a felony charge. This whack-job got off with community service thanks to our man-boy county prosecutor who seems to spend more time seducing his office manager than putting bad guys away. So, lock your doors or lock and load. This might get interesting.
ReplyDeleteLet him come. I didn't do a dog license, because it doesn't mean crap (my last dog that was licensed, the humane society never even called me when she was lost, and then claimed they tried to call before adopting her out to a family. SOL they said).
DeleteSo, let him break into here. My dog would love from fresh ass meat.
So now this gang of thugs (and that's being polite) has creeped their mission, after taking their best shot at Dale Wilson, to take aim at everyone who may have advertised in POC? In this case, to put the Pet Posse out of business under the false pretense that they care about animals? Seems more like they've declared a local civil war. Way to go, PA.
ReplyDeleteAnon 8:18, this "civil war" has been going on for months now. This "gang of thugs" has been calling up all the businesses that advertise with the Port o Call, and have overtly threatened them. Look up a past issue of the Port o Call on their website, look up a couple of the advertisers, and stop by and ask them if they've been called by thugs.
DeleteSheriff Benedict seems to be an upstanding guy by showing some leadership here.
ReplyDeleteBut you have to ask, who's giving the orders to the OT outlaws?
Given the focused pattern of harassment of POC advertisiers, one might reasonably conclude that the real gang of outlaws wants the news buried so much that they "hired" the OT gang to do their dirty work for them.
What? PA still in the 19th century? With a plot like a western movie?
Bullshit. This is a way for the Sheriff to try and neuter the freedom of information act. You can't pick and chose the information requested.
DeleteAnd, everyone KNOWS that only about 10% of the pet owners have licenses in this county. So, how different is this than him knowing your address by opening the phone book?
I can't believe that anyone is thinking that Benedict and Nichols weren't behind this. They are trying to erode one of the FEW tools the individual has to really see what our government is doing.
With out it we'd all have to sue the government (and that takes buttloads).
I think Nichols and Madam came up with this idea -- and Benedict was the rube who got snookered on this one.
On the facebook page about it even the grand dame of the Out of Towners (CWard) accused Madam of just seeking attention.
@8:41 here. Hmm, 7:05 you made me think twice, thanks. But all Public Record Act (PRA) requests are themselves public record, so what's the public harm in posting one? I don't see how that "erodes" the PRA. Not necessarily disagreeing, but please explain your position?
DeleteThe sheriff's office was trying to get people up in arms, and an outcry, to change the public records request laws, because "look what they can get of your information" (the horror).
DeleteAnd, it isn't like Clallam County has been all that good an fulfilling records requests, have they?
So, to me it looked like an end-run around the law, to somehow create a situation where people would rally against it. Pets, my information, OH MY.
Whats next? Madam will come for our children?
I doubt that anything the Clallam County Sheriff's office could ever do would influence the state legislature to change state law and policy.
DeleteMaybe the Madam intends to scrutinize records of pets registered to homeless people and make "citizen arrests" for the crime of falsifying a government document if the pet owner is listed as living somewhere indoors?
ReplyDeleteThe inspiration may have come from reports that a port commission candidate used an address other than his domicile to file for office?
Just kidding...
Colleen the whistleblower welcome to unearthed "b"!
DeleteDoes Chamberlin actually have a real job? I can't see where he gets all his free time to harass people and waste the public's money with records requests, much less try to start a new business.
ReplyDeleteHe is licensed by the state as a private investigator. Which said license was apparently not lifted after the felony conviction. The license carried the "armed" credential, but that should have been lifted cause he had to give up his bedroom full of guns. I hope, anyway.
DeleteDoubtful he is still licensed. Felons are not eligible for a PI license.
DeleteJust because someone is licensed doesn't mean they practice. Does he actually have employment somewhere where he actually draws a paycheck?
DeleteI am going to go out on a limb here and hazard a guess that mama's boy Madam does NOT, in fact, have a real, paycheck-paying job. From what I have heard he pieces his financial life together from family and government assistance. Apron strings and handouts, that's what little boys are made of...
DeleteHmm, locate dog owners, steal their pets, then magically "find" them and ask for money. Or maybe just threaten them so they don't call the Pet Posse.
ReplyDeleteWhich one of you OT low-lifes came up with that one?
It could be a worse. Dogs are stolen all the time to "train" fighting dogs. All they need is fresh blood to get the fighting dogs used to going for the kill. Many of the "lost dogs" wind up in someone's "arena" just to feed this blood "sport." Having a ready list of available dogs would be worth thousands in the hands of the right scumbag.
DeleteAdam ... bro ... dude. Pay attention. And pay your dues. Do your community service. Keep your head down for a couple of years. Everybody knows there was more to the story, except you got lucky. Everybody effin knows. You're not getting out of this till you start hearing the rest of The Town. Start shutting up and stop pretending.
ReplyDeleteHe can't stop wanting attention. Clearly, he's addicted to the stuff.
DeleteAre you people beginning to see how Mr. Nichols is one of the head a-holes directly causing damage to the very citizenry he is sworn to protect?
ReplyDeleteCan a prosecutor be impeached?
Here is an idea. Some one should ask every civic leader, in every position, whether or not they support OT. Elected or not. Business owners, too.
ReplyDeleteEnough pussy-footin' around. If Port Angeles' leadership and businesses support vigilantes running people they dislike out of town by what ever means, then let the supporters stand up proudly. Put a sign in your window saying you support OT.
Time to take a stand.
It's an election season. It's the time to talk about our town, what we want it to be like, and where we want it to go in the future.
Let's ask the city council members. The County Commissioners. Mark Nichols. School Board. PABA. Chamber. Downtown business owners.
Let's know who is supporting this.
and meanwhile, in the primary for position #1, Negus opted for full reporting on his campaign (for unknown reasons) and has not filed one single report. No financials. No donations. Nothing. (Deadline was last Monday and Tuesday.)
ReplyDeleteI guess if you are just a really NICE GUY, who plays golf, and smiles a lot, but can't follow the rules, pay attention, or really give a damn about rules and regulations you're perfect for our city council.
Adam didn't show up to the candidates forum at the Demo HQ, he sent a surrogate to the a club event for the same purpose. He just can't be bothered to show up at events.
ReplyDeleteHe's too busy being "impotent".
Just what we need on the council another egomaniac.
When you say "Adam," do you mean Jake Ohole? I know it's easy to get these impotent men mixed up...
DeleteToo much crap to keep track of!
DeleteWho wants to spoil their buzz by going to some stodgy old political forum? That's not what running for office is about, man! Freedom! Where's my beer? Who's your daddy?
DeleteOh darn...they are nearly identical in my head. Separated at birth...Yes meant o-hole, not madam...but it could be madam o-hole?
ReplyDeleteI see that Dale Wilson was able to transfer his obsession with Chamberlain onto you. You used to blog about a multitude of things, now this blog is like an all-Chamberlain-all-the-time radio station. You know he doesn't control policy in Port Angeles, right? To listen to the chatter on this blog you think he was the mayor.
ReplyDeleteFirst, Madam is a bully, and it's nice to see bullies get theirs, to see them get exposed.
DeleteSecond, given the decrepit state that the actual mayor is in, I think it's arguable that Madam is just as influential right now in Port Angeles - which is a pretty sad indicator for Port Angeles.
Thanks for writing.
Oh, and look at the new topic I'll be posting in a few minutes, which has nothing to do with thrice convicted felons.
DeleteAll I see is you posting about current events and the Madam has certainly been rearing his ugly empty head as of late. But Anon at 10:59 p.m. sure can't help but obsess and stay up late thinking about it.
Delete@ Anon 10:59 By your comments, it seems you don't read much, or only what you want to read/see. Looking at the topics on the homepage of this site, I see all kinds of different things being brought up.
DeleteHaving said that, the emergence of this vigilante group IS a very important issue. People do understand the dangerous and bad things they are, and are creating. People rightfully are concerned, as this group further drags down any possibilities that Port Angeles will be seen as anything other than the racist, bigoted backwater it is.
Sorry @10:59 TROLL, but we're going to talk about mental illness, which happens to squarely include this little civil war that the mentally ill OT are conducting and acting out, not only against the homeless and the downtrodden, but all good citizens.
Delete
