Rick Gore Responds to District Attorney Jeff Reisig’s Statement

On Friday, March 7, 2008, the Vanguard received a letter from Senior Investigator Rick Gore of the Yolo County District Attorney’s Office. In that letter, Rick Gore accused the District Attorney, Jeff Reisig, of unethical practices relating to several incidents and cases.

Two of the more serious charges includes lying to the Judge during hearings on the gang injunction, and the failure to disclose the results of a gun test during the Halloween Homicide Case.

Jeff Reisig responded by calling the charges “reckless allegations,” issuing a full denial, and suggesting that former Deputy District Attorney and candidate for DA in 2006, Pat Lenzi had been responsible for these charges.

“On March 6, 2008, the Yolo County District Attorney’s office received notice that former candidate for the office of District Attorney, Patricia Lenzi, and current District Attorney Investigator, Rick Gore, have accused several currently employed prosecutors and investigators, including the District Attorney, of committing unethical acts.

‘On behalf of the entire office, including the prosecutors and investigators targeted by these accusations, I deny these false and reckless allegations. I have requested an independent investigation, will be fully cooperative and look forward to the results.”

Yesterday for the first time, the Vanguard along with the Davis Enterprise, Woodland Daily Democrat, and Sacramento Bee, has received a statement from Rick Gore.

He writes:

“It is not surprising to me that Mr. Reisig would not admit any wrongdoing. We all see this every day from every politician in a scandal. The rule is “Admit nothing”, “Deny everything”, and “Demand Proof”. After that, the common response is to claim it is politically motivated.”

He goes on to argue that it is implausible that he would throw away his longtime law enforcement career based on the grievances of another individual.

“For someone to suggest, that I would throw my law enforcement career away, change my life as I know it and put myself in financial hardship, for someone else’s motivations is ludicrous.”

The decision to write a letter was a very difficult one according to Mr. Gore.

“The decision to send this letter was deeply challenging, extremely stressful and one of the most difficult decisions I have made in my life. I made this decision, knowing full well what Mr. Reisig and the people in his inner circle, were capable of doing. I expected to be attacked and to be made the bad guy in this. I did not expect him to blame someone else and use this as an opportunity to take a cheap shot.”

He then patently and emphatically denies any involvement of Pat Lenzi.

“For the record, Former DA Lenzi did not write this letter, did not encourage me to send this letter and was in no way responsible for this letter. The decision was mine and mine alone.”

He then suggests that the media and investigators ought to look into these charges and then they can determine whether they are really that “reckless.”

“I would hope the news media would keep their eye on the ball. This letter is to bring attention to the ethics of DA Reisig. The people of Yolo County need to know who they elected, how he is spending their money and how he is using and or abusing the power they gave him. It is my belief that the DA should be acting in the best interest of the people, not his own best interest.

I find it interesting that Mr. Reisig called my entire letter “reckless allegations”. Being an investigator, I have to think that a worthy reporter would try to confirm one or two facts in the letter. Perhaps a call to Woodland Police to see if a letter was sent by Mr. Reisig stating his authority to send his investigators where he pleased. Or maybe asking the county how many employees have left or been asked to leave since Mr. Reisig’s election.”

The Vanguard also spoke with former Deputy District Attorney Pat Lenzi.

“Rick Gore is as honest a man as you will ever meet,” she told the Vanguard. “I hope the investigation into Rick’s allegations is thorough and professional.”

Following Mr. Gore, she also suggested that authorities and the media examine the questions that were raised rather than motivations.

“It is more important to look at the questions Rick has raised and ascertain the level of merit they have than it is to chase after the DAs red herrings. That will only lead you to lose sight of the importance of Rick’s actions.”

She concludes:

“Rick is willing to put himself out there at risk to his career to do what he firmly believes is the right thing. We can all learn from and maybe even be inspired by his example.”

The Pat Lenzi angle never made a lot of sense. Rick Gore was a career law enforcement officer who was two years from retirement. Pat Lenzi was no longer in the chain of command at the Yolo County District Attorney’s Office. What benefit was there to Rick Gore to make things up in order to carry the water of an individual who was not in a position to help him? If he was going to act in an unethical manner, why would he not simply carry out the orders of the District Attorney who could give him career advancement?

At the end of the day, I agree with all that we need to let this process play out. We need to have an honest and thorough investigation into the allegations. Stay tuned for the Vanguard as this situation continues to develop.

  1. I strongly agree with the main point made by Mr. Gore; that all interested persons need to not allow themselves to be mislead by efforts to smear the victim (in this case Gore) and focus on the truth of the charges.

    That being said, I believe that an eye also needs to be on the likely knowledge and/or complicity of Mr. Reisig’s second in command, Jonathan Raven. Unethical and illegal conduct as perasive and broad as that alleged, rarely occurs w/out the knowledge of or assistance by top lieutenants. Mr. Raven’s role needs to be examined as well. If not by bar investigators then by some other investigative entity.

  5. Thank you for letting us know about Rick’s statement.

    The Democrat owes Pat Lenzi an apology for its very poor reporting. The Enterprise did better, but needs to clarify its story.

    Reisig needs to make a public apology for his staff’s inappropriate and erroneous claims in this matter.

  9. Some of Reisig’s most ardent supporters have left the DA’s office and they are not happy with Reisig’s preformance as DA. Maybe the Vanguard could get some of these people to go on the record or confirm or deny some of the accusations.

  13. I believe that the D.A office should be investigated. There are soon to be trails going on and some of these trails will send people to prison because of several corrupted oficers. GOD gave these individuals power to protect victims and several indivduals have strongly used their power for personal gain. I know people who feel they have put almost their whole life into their career and now could face being on the other side is going to do what ever it takes to not et that happen, even if it means taking other people’s freedom. The question is what are we going to do? Do we stand and wait until one of our friends or love one be the next victim? Or do we stand and fight and get that D.A office investigated to keep people from falsely being accused.

    Will they really talk or just cover their own butts and leave Gore out there alone?

  25. From reading the comments on here most have already convicted Reisig. Most reason that Gore must be telling the truth because he would not jeopardize his career for a lie. Well the same could be said about the other 100 employees at the DA’s office. What makes you think they are all lying to protect Reisig? Do you really think all of them would jeopardize their own careers to protect Reisig? I would not lie to save anybody’s ass or for anybody. Just seems hard for me to believe all of the other Investigators who have been there many years as well would all lie, knowing if they sacrifices one guy they would all be safe…

  29. My operating assumptions right now:

    Rick Gore is not coming forward because Pat Lenzi told him too, that makes no sense.

    On the charges themselves, I have not made a determination either way. I do however believe that we should thoroughly investigate the charges that have been brought forward and this blog will continue to examine those charges. If they prove to be accurate, then the DA should face the consequences. If the DA is exonerated, then we should say so, and Mr. Gore should face the consequences.

    If you are concerned about malfeasance in government however, and that is one of my chief concerns and reasons for having this blog, you must take steps to protect whistleblowers unless those individuals are shown to be misleading the public and make false charges, in which case, they should face the consequences for their actions.

  33. Of course, it is only natural to protect one’s self. I don’t care who one works for. Going on record to confirm allegations is risky business. Oftentimes, an employee makes a “statement” to an employer and others by departing. When there is a work environment that has a consistent or suddenly high turn over, there may be an administrative problem. “Standing up”, specifically when it involves allegations against a government entity, is atypical. That is the reason we have laws to “protect” whistle blowers such as Mr. Gore. Mr. Gore has a lot to lose, therefore, the likelihood that his allegations are false is not probable. Lets, however, reserve judgment regarding Mr. Reisig’s conduct until all evidence is investigated. This is a courtesy that Mr. Reisig apparently does not always extend to others.

  37. It’s not like Rick’s allegations are coming up out of the blue. There has been rumblings and discussions in the community about unethical practices and mistreatment of co-workers and employees in the DAs office going back to the beginning of Reisig’s campaign for DA. The difference is that Rick Gore really has the standing as a current employee to force some kind of action.

    If Reisig wants to stay in his job, he will have to change the way he operates as a manager. Blaming Pat Lenzi for all of his current troubles is just juvenile and not what we expect of someone in a powerful managerial position in the county.

  45. Why are people staying at the DA’s office? Many are waiting it out to retire, if they can make it that long.
    With regard to investigators,trying going to Elk Grove PD and ask around. Other employees have gone to the State. Some are leaving to go to other counties. One 13 yr employee just left Friday.
    The atmosphere in the office is like a bunch of people held hostage. Some are “checked on” at home to see if they are really sick when they call in sick. Others have to account for where they go and why. It’s called the Stockholm Syndrome- you side with your captors after awhile. Supervisors yell and scream at their subordinates with no discipline- they are congratulated to “taking charge”.
    The candidate is not the same person that was elected. He fooled his supporters. If employees talk, there will be retribution.

  49. My sources in law enforcement tell me that since Mr. Reisig became DA the work environment there has changed radically, which nobody expected. A pervasive fear of reprisals by aggressive supervisors and handing out negative employee reviews for subjective or fabricated “infractions” to experienced line deputies has apparently become the “norm” there. Further, career prosecutors are now apparently micro-managed to the point that none but Mr. Reisig’s inner circle of friends are free to exercise their professional judgement without being bullied, threatened and/or punished with letters of reprimand. What I’ve heard, while hearsay, is strong evidence of an autocrat at the top who is very, very concerned about something other than a fully functioning DA’s office in which the staff were apparently functioning well enough w/o fear of their employer under the previous DA. Further, it implies an autocrat who believes that fear of termination or bullying will win him the forced loyalty which ensures that the law is given short shrift (as in the end justifying the means). That is where Mr. Gore’s allegations of retaliation and bullying for refusing to sign a false affidavit comes in. The officers I know who have weekly contact with the place have been shocked at what they’ve seen happen there. Glad I don’t work there! The citizens of the county and the employees there can only hope that a credible and thorough investigation will result in a better work environment regardless of their findings.

A pervasive fear of reprisals by aggressive supervisors and handing out negative employee reviews for subjective or fabricated “infractions” to experienced line deputies has apparently become the “norm” there. Further, career prosecutors are now apparently micro-managed to the point that none but Mr. Reisig’s inner circle of friends are free to exercise their professional judgement without being bullied, threatened and/or punished with letters of reprimand. What I’ve heard, while hearsay, is strong evidence of an autocrat at the top who is very, very concerned about something other than a fully functioning DA’s office in which the staff were apparently functioning well enough w/o fear of their employer under the previous DA. Further, it implies an autocrat who believes that fear of termination or bullying will win him the forced loyalty which ensures that the law is given short shrift (as in the end justifying the means). That is where Mr. Gore’s allegations of retaliation and bullying for refusing to sign a false affidavit comes in. The officers I know who have weekly contact with the place have been shocked at what they’ve seen happen there. Glad I don’t work there!

  53. Maybe they just do not like being told to work. The previous boss was a lazy ass who did not care what anyone did. Employees came and left when they pleased, work short weeks, shorter days and plead everything out so they never had to prepare for a trial.

    This sort of thing happens all of the time in the corporate world. A new boss comes in, cleans house and makes everyone else work their ass off. Of course some people are going to be pissed off when their way of life changes. Cry me a river and get back to work.

  57. The “dirty house” was previously ran by one of Reisig’s primary endorsors.
    As for Mr. Gore, his allegations may just be the impetus to “cleaning house.” If the allegations against Reisig are found to be valid, there is cause for greater concern than that of “disgruntled employees.”
    There should be a full investigation regarding cases that Reisig was involved in before and during his run for DA.

  69. I have known Rick Gore since before he began working for the Yolo County D.A. Rick is incompetent. He attempted to get a job as a Police Officer, but was rejected by several agencies. He then began working as a Welfare Fraud Investigator for the Yolo County Welfare Department. This was a minimal investigative position requiring a low level peace officer certificate. When the Welfare Investigators were absorbed by the D.A., Rick was grandfathered in as a D.A. Investigator.

    When Jeff Reisig was elected, he recruited Jonathan Raven and other highly proficient Deputy D.A.’s who had been lured away for higher paying jobs to return. He also put the dead weight at the D.A.’s office on notice to start producing, or leave. I’m confident that Rick Gore was one of those dead weight employees.

    Rick’s latest assignment has been to the High-Tech Investigator position. Rick is underqualified for the position and has done nothing to improve his knowledge of technology beyond the training the office has given him.

    I believe that any investigation into the D.A.’s office will show that Mr. Reisig is only doing what we, the tax payers would want him to do. He is cleaning house and setting high standards of accountability … a standard Mr. Gore can not meet.

  73. To the most recent “Anonymous” poster:

    Your whole attack on Gore does nothing to keep the eye on the ball – is Reisig dirty? Is he bullying his staff? You must be one of his crones.

    If Gore is now suffering personal attacks by Reisig’s inner circle, like you must be, and if Gore is attacked for being the messenger, then he seems even more likely to be telling the truth here.

    Thanks for helping us all gather information to support Gore’s version of the facts.

    If Reisig is really just doing his job, why does he go after Pat Lenzi? It was very easy to fact check their assertions and find out quickly that they made the whole thing up.

    Why doesn’t he correct the information languishing in the Daily Democrat (one article, one editorial and now one letter to the editor) that Pat Lenzi is the mastermind and executor of Rick Gore’s complaint and the bane of Reisig’s existence?

    Where is the “demonstration of high standards of accountability?” I’m waiting.

  81. “Highly proficient DA Jonathan Raven????” Are you kidding me????
    He HAD to leave the Attorney General’s Office. Reisig brought him in because Raven had been “threatening” to run for DA. Better to keep your enemies closer….?
    And guess who used to work in the Welfare Fraud unit with Rick Gore when they came to the DA’s office the first time??? That’s right- Jonathan Raven. A lot of anonymous people are making comments about what is going on in that office- IS ANYONE LISTENING???? It’s one thing to come in with new ideas and a fresh perspective about how to run an office- bring new leadership in… it’s another to bring in a group of micromanagers and fellow body builders like Reisig has to intimidate and marginalize those who have worked for years for the past administration and backed Reisig. There is no such thing a loyalty. Autocrat?? YES!!! Let’s see how long it takes before Gore is forced to resign or medically retire….

  85. They are listening….. That is why there seems to be a subtle attempt to detract from the real issue. Correct me if I am wrong but isn’t this about allegations of misconduct by Jeff Reisig?
    I am not surprised that the real issue is now being masked by whether or not Gore is an “incompetent” employee or whether Pat Lenzi “masterminded” his allegations against Reisig.
    Lets entertain both ideas for a moment so that we can move on….(pause).
    Okay, now what does either have to do with investigating whether Reisig: withholds exculpatory evidence; is the reason that nearly 1 of 3 employees have left since he has been in office; and/or has set the tone and leads corruption at his office?
    Can someone explain how “absolute immunity” works in either situation?

    I thank you Mr. Rick Gore for the door you open this is a blessing for all that are in jial waiting for someone like you to help. Maybe now the State Attorney will get involve in a deep investigation on this dirty department.
    These are not allegations this is the truth and yes Reisig is a dirty DA he does run UNETHICAL PRACTICES how do you think he got his position doing a dirty job in the Halloween Homicide case sending innocent people to prison that’s how. The State Attorney should investigate not just Reisig but Jim Walker and there investigator Steve Mount I’m sure they will have there hands full. Think about it the Halloween Homicide happen in 2002 and Reisig had nothing did he need to make something happen to win his election? Hell YES!!! Who? any one was good for him, he had the best help planting this a great dirty team Jim Walker and his investigator Steve, they know the truth.
    keeping something so important as the gun results?? But hey he won. now he has his name on the door DA Reisig and innocent people are in prison what a big win for Reisig! I’m sure Rick Gore knows much more then he has let out Please Mr. Gore let the truth be known innocent young men have been in jail for more then 3 years lock up 23 hours a day and some in prison for something they did not do!!!They are innocent of this crime that Reisig and his dirt department made up just to win a position as the Yolo County DA wow! How can you sleep Reisig, Walker and Steve?? Show the tapes all the tapes let everyone see how you got your confessions let every one know who’s the appointed Judge on the next Halloween Homicide trail! What happen to the CONFLICT OF INTEREST for these young men? Isn’t the Judge married to a person also in high power in the DA’s office and he has to go home to her! UNETHICAL PRACTICES, DIRTY HELL YES! Mr. Rick Gore speak UP please.

    I thank you Mr. Rick Gore for the door you open this is a blessing for all that are in jial waiting for someone like you to help. Maybe now the State Attorney will get involve in a deep investigation on this dirty department.
    These are not allegations this is the truth and yes Reisig is a dirty DA he does run UNETHICAL PRACTICES how do you think he got his position doing a dirty job in the Halloween Homicide case sending innocent people to prison that’s how. The State Attorney should investigate not just Reisig but Jim Walker and there investigator Steve Mount I’m sure they will have there hands full. Think about it the Halloween Homicide happen in 2002 and Reisig had nothing did he need to make something happen to win his election? Hell YES!!! Who? any one was good for him, he had the best help planting this a great dirty team Jim Walker and his investigator Steve, they know the truth.

  101. Now honestly, How many people did he send to prison that might not have went there if the D.A had been playing fair? Honesty is the best policy! Didn’t their mothers teach them that? Alot of judgements might need to be looked into that could produce alot of costly manpower and efforts on alot of departments surrounding the individual cases. I believe Gore was the first one with the guts to say something. Let’s see who will follow him. Gore should be promoted after we beg him to come back and fix this mess. What do you think Gore?
