Update on Jack McClellan A Major Victory for Local Santa Clarita Attorneys!

I as well as many local Santa Clarita residents attended the hearing this morning in Superior Court in Chatsworth for Jack McClellan. The courtroom was standing room only and I witnessed first hand the proceedings. The end result of this hearing is Jack McClellan is now barred from any place where children congregate in the state of California as well as stay 10 yards away from any place where children congregate. This restraining order will be in effect for the next three years.

This is a major victory for the local Santa Clarita prosecution team at the Owen Patterson and Owen firm. I applaud the efforts of Rick Patterson and Anthony D. Zinnanti. I spoke with Rick briefly after the hearing congratulating both him and Anthony for their efforts. He was grateful for the support of the local residents who showed up on behalf of their efforts. Jane Thompson and Lena Smyth wife of Assemblyman Cameron Smyth were on hand as well. Both Jane and Lena have spearheaded a local chapter of MASP "Mothers Against Sexual Predators which has a website you can visit by clicking here

I put together a brief overview of today's events on a photo tour below.

Pablo,

It was a priviledge to meet you in person. It is people like you, Lena Smyth, Gail Ortiz, Stacie Miller, and many others who gathered petitions and offered support that make the Santa Clarita Valley a wonderful place for families. You are a regular guy who took the time to make a difference. Great website. We must be ever vigilant. The dark side had some light shined on it through this case and we have once again provided law enforcemnt with the tools they need to effectively restrain Mr. McClellan.

We know the sheriffs in our town will enforce the orders lets hope that the Los Angeles City Attorney will do the same.

Thanks also for your help in court today.

Rick Patterson

Rick,

It was a privilege to meet you and Anthony as well. Issues such as this must be confronted head on. We cannot be complacent when we are called upon to act. Everyone complains about different issues but when it comes to taking action. They are nowhere to be found. There are those in the judicial process who give the system a bad name by their example and lack of follow through. It is an unfortunate reality. I found it interesting that not even the ACLU would take this case on. Let's hope the laws we have in place are enforced in all arenas throughout this great state! And I hope that Mr McClellan and those like him seek the help they need to overcome this type of predatory behavior for the sake of children here and abroad.

Take care Rick,

Pablo Santibanez
