Month: March 2020

Another week of coronavirus madness shuts down Santa Cruz, unless you’re on a bender to infect as many people as possible like our local grifters seem hell bent on doing. But we’ve got other news! A Live Oak man was stabbed to death by his roommate this week, we had another stabbing on Lower Ocean, an attempted armed robbery at an ATM downtown, revenge of the scythe, social distancing pays off for SCPD, suspected rapist evades police, turnstiler of the week, not worth getting shot over, exporting our low hanging fruit, in his time of dying, taking the high road, angry old man in Scotts valley gets arrested, the city council phones it in, obnoxious narcissists vs. SCPD, and more!

This week, it’s the end of the world as we know it but I feel fine. And it’s my bicentennial! Of course, we’ve got my thoughts on coronavirus, the Water Street Human Dumpster Fire gets evicted, Brent Adams got stabbed, quit waving your gun around, shooting off with morning coffee, if the shirt fits, the gift that keeps on giving, Turnstiler of the Week, quit bothering SCPD, one way to sanitize it, swag is coming, and we celebrate 200 straight weeks of bringing vibrant honesty to Santa Cruz!

Beware the Ides of March! This week, we get hammered on Coronavirus, man arrested for attempted kidnapping and rape on Pacific Avenue, good morning Santa Cruz, what could go wrong with a cache of guns and meth, loaded Glock found in stolen SUV, skating away on the thin ice of a new day, skid row skidmarks, fake shooter report in Felton, battle of the California homeless unions, the three stooges discuss local homelessness, obstinate and oblivious to the bitter end, daily affirmations with Andy Mills, and more!

Judgement day is finally here for Chris Krohn and Drew Glover and the verdict is (sort of) in! We also saw Janet pink slip UCSC strikers, beware of the bogey man, speedballs and power tools, flash and the can, the turnstile in action, morning bum fights, stay away orders are a joke, Bad Dad, lawyers guns and money, breaking up the breaking badmobile brigade, SCPD town hall meetings next week, and more!
