remember the Zaca fire? last year? the morons responsible for this mayhem got off scot-free: the ranch hands, the ranch, Rancho La Laguna and the jugheaded judge Zel Canter who let them off the hook...he claimed they weren't negligent..I beg to differ...here's a summary:
2 workmen, ranch face charges in Zaca fire - The blaze was started by sparks from equipment. It has scorched almost 250,000 acres of forest.
SANTA BARBARA -- Two men and a cattle ranch were charged Friday with felony crimes for allegedly recklessly starting a fire that has burned 375 square miles of wilderness in Santa Barbara and Ventura counties and injured 44 firefighters.Jose Jesus Cabrera, 38, of Santa Ynez; Santiago Iniguez Cervantes, 46, of Santa Maria; and Rancho La Laguna LLC were charged with four felony counts each. The men could face up to nine years in state prison if convicted, according to the Santa Barbara County district attorney's office.Prosecutors charged that the men and company were careless with a flaming substance, which is a misdemeanor violation of health and safety codes, and that they failed to secure a "hot work" permit, which would be an infraction of county and state regulations.
the issue here is you and I are going to pay for the idiocy of these morons..the ash fallout polluted the water supply, so it will take extra filtering and chemicals, ie, treatment to produce safe drinking water..that's why my water rates went up! and the judge thinks the ranch is innocent! Should I send CAL OSHA to these remote ranches for a weekly safety check? YES..and the ranch should pay for it..ignorance is no excuse..these pendejos should not have been welding in the heat on the 4th of July unless there was fire suppression equipment nearby..all they had was jug of water in case a fire started! A JUG OF WATER...PENDEJOS!!!Santa Barbara Superior Court Judge Zel Canter rules that Workers’ Actions Did Not Constitute Recklessness.
WTF???? where did you get your law degree, Canter? from a Cracker Jack box?? Fucking idiot! of course it was recklessness..and stupidity...the ranch should be held liable for improper safety training and should pay the city for the extra water treatment costs...why should I pay???
CANTER click to see something stupid!
this jackass judge should be disbarred for incompetence...

According to news reports, Rancho La Laguna LLC was supposed to pay up. Wonder if anyone knows the outcome of that "settlement conference."
