Bates, John. South county architect who loaned me the steel surveyor's tape that was critical to my Newport Beach survey. Regular at Ron Cedillos' poker table. Married to well-regarded local politician.
According to the information at ocregister.com, Pat Bates' husband is poker buddies with Ron Cedillo, who was involved with Mike Carona, and was recently photographed with his hand on the shoulder of Sheriff Hutchens. Why do I suddenly feel stuck in a John Grisham novel?
Anybody know a good investigative reporter?
