Former Upland Mayor John “J.P.” Pomierski entered into a plea agreement before Federal Judge Virginia Philips in U.S. District Court in Riverside on Thursday morning.

Bob….that would be lovely. One way to measure the seriousness of this issue is to measure the volume of traffic on this blog site. If this is not a serious issue then we will see a lot of people talking smack by this evening.

If anyone does cross the border just remember to try the water there, I hear it’s really good.
The plea agreement makes compelling reading.
