Public Pension Crisis & Union Politics: Full Disclosure Network® Cable TV Series Featuring: Sheriff Carona vs OC County Supervisor Moorlach

Orange County, CA (PRWEB) September 17, 2007 -- The Full Disclosure Network® presents two half-hour cable TV programs in an on-going series covering the escalating Public Pension Crisis. These latest episodes concern the Orange County California battle over Sheriff Deputies and District Attorney Investigators retroactive pension benefits granted by the Board of Supervisors in 2002. Watch this 8 minute video preview http://www.fulldisclosure.net/Programs/501.php that summarizes the issues involved and reveals major points of contention.

Featured in the preview and the programs are:

* Supervisor John Moorlach who is leading the battle to "rescind the retroactive portion of pension benefits" granted to Deputies and District Attorney's personnel who have already retired.

* Sheriff Mike Carona. Defends his Deputies while suggesting that Supervisor Moorlach's motive is revenge in reaction to the Deputies Union campaign against his election.

* Mario Mainero, Chief of Staff and legal adviser to Moorlach describes his role in the controversy.

* Leslie Dutton, Host and interviewer for the series.

MAJOR ISSUES RAISED

DEPUTIES PAID TWICE? Supervisor John Moorlach describes state legislation sponsored by public employee unions that enabled public safety employees to receive "retroactive" pension benefits, saying it amounted to being "paid twice for services rendered." Other Constitutional violations are cited.

BENEFIT ENHANCEMENT: Sheriff Mike Carona explains that "the legislation was intended to provide a benefit enhancement to aid recruiting and retention of badly needed Deputies". And, he says "the Board of Supervisors knew the risk and liability before they approved the benefits."

BLINDING GREED? Moorlach claims the reason public safety unions pushed for overly generous benefits is because the Deputies say to themselves "I deserve this" and he says "they are not thinking about the other services that will have to be cut.... other public services for the homeless, welfare, health-care and layoffs, people will have to stand I line," he said.

DRACONIAN TACTICS: Sheriff Carona takes issue "with the way he (Moorlach) is going about this". He says both he and Moorlach were opposed by the public safety union but describes Moorlach's actions as retaliation and Draconian tactics, by also threatening to take away the Harbor Patrol duties from the Sheriff's Department, creating a Citizens Oversight Commission for the Sheriff's Department and removing Department control of a Special Needs Funding Account.

RIGHT THING TO DO? While John Moorlach describes the move to rescind retroactive benefits as "the right thing to do", Sheriff Carona describes John Moorlach's actions as a: full frontal assault against the Deputies and that it "is not good Statesmanship" saying "He should not be using his authority (as Supervisor) to take it out on them."

RULE OF LAW: Mario Mainero, Chief of Staff to Supervisor Moolach, cites the Sections of the Constitution where the pension benefits could be considered unlawful and states that this is a "Rule of Law" issue

The programs are produced by Host Leslie Dutton and T. J. Johnston and featured on 45 cable systems. Since 1992 the Full Disclosure Network® programs have been sponsored by the Citizens Protection Alliance, a non-profit, educational organization. Videos are streamed from the website www.fulldisclosure.net, 24/7, as a public service. Channels and air-times can be found on the website.
