Say cheese
There's no information on the front page of today's paper informing
readers that the photo of Councilman Rex Gutierrez is actually his
booking photo at West Valley Detention Center. Without that piece of
information, you would assume it's any other photo of politicians we
use for the paper.Gutierrez looks happy and spiffy, dressed in a tie and a city shirt. You can see just the top of the city grape logo. It seems Gutierrez has channeled Tom DeLay, another grinning politician.
It certainly makes you wonder, however, if Gutierrez was arrested at home, why was he wearing a shirt and tie?
Rex even made the big time of TV: http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Rancho-Cucamonga-Councilman-Caught-With-Hand-in-Cookie-Jar.html
And just wondering: Did he use the money he received while not working but still on the payroll to post bond?
