Pleich Allows Cyberstalking and Bullying in his FB group Citizens for a Better Santa Cruz
Steve Pleich allows cyberstalking and bullying on FB Citizen for a Better Santa Cruz. He lets members of his group slander and character assassinated fellow local activists-advocates. He has allowed my brother John and I to be stalked even though we left his group and asked him to stop allowing anyone to post anything about or use our names in any posts. We are not the only fellow activists-advocates he has allowed this to happen to: i.e. he allowed TBSC's Jim Spring to cyberbully a much respected religious homeless advocate James Weller!
Steve Pleich is allowing a one-sided bias attack on our characters! We and many others have left his group because of being stalked, insulted, personally attacked by the very same people.
We took a picture of a person while doing what looked to be drug dealing to give proof to the police so they can't ignore it anymore. The video was taken out for the purpose of audio recording (since I couldn't find my digital audio) the proceeding attempted hate speech (biased on stolen mail which was baited with gay porn to acquire proof and force police to investigate the mail stealing) and attempted assault, inciting a violent and inciting a mob. One Santa Cruz Police Officer defined that "trying to provoke a fight" or aka: fighting words is considered illegal and attempted assault. The video was not publicly posted but a link was sent to media and the police—curious how these people who were not cc'd in the email acquired the link!
While these people find it amusing, it is my hope that the police will finally shut down this dangerous meth dealer-user who I and fellow residents have witnessed dealing out of his apartment, in the park next door, at the local Safeway on Mission, at the Metro Station downtown and numerous other locations.
We hope by documenting the alleged drug dealing in the Front Street parking lot with pictures the SCPD or DA will finally shut down this dealer! The audio was to document and protect us from this alleged drug addict campaign using others to slander, libel, stalk physically and cyber, death threats, previous attempted assaults and false stories to mischaracterize my brother and I.
As a good citizen who believes Santa Cruz Police need to STOP criminalizing the HOMELESS and start arresting real "Public Safety" problems such as drug dealers especially "meth" dealers! I feel that it is important for people to help the Police by calling in on any crime witnessed especially "Drug Dealing!"

Dan Waterhouse Kathy, Robin makes me lol. There's nothing illegal about filming people at AA meetings. It's bad form and a violation of Traditions, but the Traditions have no legal force. Might it be harassment? Depends. The courts have said you can film whatever is in plain view. Is the camera being shoved into the guy's face? If not, it's not harassment.

Dan Waterhouse We had a notorious murder case in the 1990s that flowed out of 12-step meetings. Victim confronted hubby over his inventory, and she ended up strangled fatally. It's a complicated story but most of the witnesses were in recovery, and the prosecution believed he had help moving her body into an upstairs closet-he weighed 130 pounds and she weighed 250.

That said, the only people who seem to get a thrill out of sharing that video are Robert and the Colbys'.
Some of the people in the AA video could very likely be those on the border between housed and not. Where is the outrage? Just because it is someone who is "on your side" it isn't being publicly called out? Again - I reference at least the public group mentioned above.

Stalkers launched a hate campaign against me at the Mission Gardens Section 8 project because they stole my BAITED gay and lesbian mail. They began to poison the Mission Gardens community by slandering me as a *gay* child molester using this stolen mail. They tried to have Santa Cruz Police Department (SCPD) officers arrest me, claiming I endangered Mission Gardens children. They sent children up to my apartment to lodge false claims against me, to scare resident parents. For five long years from 2008 to 2013 I was isolated in my apartment: they falsely imprisoned me.
The SCPD refused to protect me because it would prove SCPD Officer Jason Kelly botched an investigation of my sister's stolen Social Security check in 2007. The SCPD has been retaliating against me because of my advocacy for (disabled) homeless people — I filed a USDOJ discrimination complaint against the SCPD. I've appealed to the U.S. Senate about SCPD fraud and public corruption. The City of Santa Cruz is angry I've been petitioning the U.S. Senate to have the FBI investigate the City for crimes against the taxpayers — numerous cases of fraud, public corruption and abuse of power. They especially hate me for my Freedom of Information (FOI) requests to obtain evidence against them for the federal government.
The Mission Gardens LGBTQ hate mongers recruited Tack Back Santa Cruz (TBSC) Internet trolls to target me with online death threats and online hate speech. Several TBSC haters are attacking me on the Santa Cruz Topix forums, the Sentinel Disqus forums and on Facebook groups (like CFAB SC and the SC Hall of Shame).
The Mission Gardens criminals and their TBSC friends have made my life hellish — they have poisoned the community for me. The SCPD and the City Council have enabled this. I've pleaded numerous times to the City Council and SCPD Chief Kevin Vogel to end this, but they have ignored my despearte appeals for help. They protect real criminals while criminalizing (disabled) homeless people and retaliating against homeless advocates.
Long time attendees probably will continue, but what about that potential for a new attendee that wandered out and witnessed this? If such an individual was in attendance and decides against further treatment and goes into a downward spiral...maybe even becoming homeless...
Those wonderful "homeless advocates" John and Pat Colby fully own this.
It is by the grace of technology that this video showing the depravity of John and Pat is easily duplicated in case they decide to clean their trail.
Those two have no shame.
