Affidavit shows Postmus unsure about Rex

| | Comments (8) |
Many are curious whether the allegations against Councilman Rex Gutierrez are true. The former intergovernmental relations officer of the Assessor's Office is accused of attending city events and conducting city business on county time.

Apparently Gutierrez's former boss, Bill Postmus, was wondering the same thing. According to court documents in support of criminal charges filed against Postmus this week, Postmus and former Assistant Assessor Harlow Cameron hired an investigator to find out if Gutierrez was conducting City Council business during work hours.

Cameron, who now lives in Washington state, told me he was merely the go-between. His role was to contact the private investigator on Postmus' behalf.

Postmus would not comment on why he hired an investigator to find out information about his own employee. Instead, he pleaded patience in an e-mailed statement.

"All I humbly ask is that the citizens of San Bernardino County have an open mind and reserve judgment until all the facts are presented in an impartial forum and in a fair manner," Postmus wrote.

More details to come in tomorrow's paper.

All I humbly ask is that you shutup,drug addict crook. As for that impartial forum, does that mean you have'nt paid them off just yet?, but your working on it no doubt. You look so defiant in the picture in Sun. paper. Is that humble defiance or are you just high again clown?

History has shown... Rex is his own worst enemy. The former intergovernmental relations officer of the Assessor's Office may have more than he can handle this time.

Give Rex a break. He is a hardworking guy and everything is good in the neighborhood. It's just all a misunderstanding and Rex is working hard for the great people of R.C. At least that's the spin Rex is touting.

As Rex stated in the past, Bill P. was one of his mentors and supporters. For a guy who promotes his dedication to his faith, I still don't understand how Rex could hang with this Gang. It's who you assoicate that shows your true colors. Unfortunately Rex got caught and it's difficult to plead ignorance with this gang.

Just think about life after Rex. I'll bet City Manager Jack Lam can't wait for the day Rex departs his council.

Just think about life after Rex. Sweet! I'll bet City Manager Jack Lam can't wait for the day Rex departs his council. Lam is shrewd and intelligent so there's more than a good chance he was aware of Rex's double dipping with the County and RC.

I've been wondering what Rex does for work too as well. Looks like we will soon know the facts.
