ALAMEDA COUNTY | Former Alameda County Supervisor Nadia Lockyer was arrested last week in Orange County and charged with child endangerment, according to a police report.
Lockyer, 41, was arrested Aug. 28 and held in custody for three days at the county’s women’s jail, according to the report. She was released without bail.
The news of Lockyer’s arrest is another in a long list of personal troubles for the once-promising county supervisor following her election in 2010. Her rratic behavior and noticeable weight loss, however, became apparent in the first six months of her term and became public knowledge starting with her Feb. 3 call to Newark Police alleging her estranged boyfriend had assaulted her.
Lockyer later entered rehab for substance abuse addiction and ultimately resigned April 20. In June, Lockyer crashed her car into a pole near her Hayward home and was treated at a nearby hospital for minor injuries. A week later, published reports revealed her husband, Calfornia Treasurer Bill Lockyer had filed for divorce.

The comment of 11:18PM on September 15 is so ridiculous, that therefore I suspect he is a lawyer and/or a major supporter or friend of the Lockyers.
In other words, and as anyone with an IQ higher than his or her shoe size is well aware of. the police do not generally properly cite and/or drug test bigshots involved in even the most horrible and outrageous driving, and even when it can be stated with more than ninety nine percent certainty that the bigshot is drunk and/or full of illicit drugs, and as has been repeatedly proven, and for instance by such characters as Carole Migden.
In fact, a few years ago I read an article by a Bay area clergyman who said he had had a serious problem with alcoholism, but due to the fact that he was not only a fairly prominent clergyman but also served on various local community boards (if I remember correctly, for instance he was on the board of the local fire district), therefore the first several times the police stopped for drunk driving, once they realized who he was. rather than writing him up for drunk driving instead they did not make out a report and quietly gave him a ride home.
However after a few years one police officer did finally write him up, and which therefore resulted in him being required to attend a school for people with alcoholism problems. One of the points he then mentioned in his article was that he was surprised at the high percentage of people in his alcoholism class who were judges.
BUT IN OTHER WORDS, AND AS I HAVE MENTIONED BEFORE, THE RATES OF ALCOHOLISM AND DRUG ABUSE AMONG MEMBERS OF THE LEGAL PROFESSION IS HIGHER THAN SKYHIGH.
But getting back to Nadia Lockyer specifically, she could always insist that in her fairly recent car accident in which law enforcement pretended to believe that she did not appear to be drunk and/or under the effects of drugs, that she truly was sober. But then if after the car accident she had been immediately tested for drugs and blood alcohol content, on the less than one percent chance she had come up clean, due to the way she acted at about the time of the accident I would have then assumed her years of alcohol and drug abuse had destroyed so many of her brain cells that she had been turned into a permanent mental retard.
But regardless, she has no business driving a car and no business having custody of a child – unless we want other people, and including possibly her son, to be killed in a car accident and/or her son to be be in an environment that would likely eventually cause him to become a drug addict.

Firstly, MW, your allegation that she is driving under the influence is pure conjecture. You haven't a clue what she does or does not do when she drives. She hit a light pole a few weeks back.

Nadia is a tragedy but, not, one of the Front-runners for the “Worst Mother Olympics” as MW would lead you to believe. The lesson to be learned from all of this is that voters needs to spend a little time and energy deciding who they cast their ballot for. Nadia won basically because voters identified with the name “Lockyear” and that quite frankly is pretty sad..

To elaborate a bit on the posts of 8:21 (Sept 10) and 3:13 (Sept 11), yes, even before Election Day some people did realize that Nadia had no major “qualifications” other than: one, she was Bill's wife; two, had many times more money in her campaign chest, & because of Bill & his powerful connections, than the other candidates; and three, some of the big boys, & such as for instance Jerry Brown, pretended she was qualified, & therefore endorsed her, only to scratch Bill's back & as a favor to Bill, & even though it was obvious she had no real qualifications.
And if you type into Yahoo the search terms “Nadia Lockyer” and “Kevin Dowling” and “Liz,” various articles will come up, & including some that were published even before the election, and which also made it fairly obvious that she had no real “qualifications” other than the ones listed in the previous paragraph.
For instance, the SF Chronicle had an article on May 26, 2010 titled, “CANDIDATE NADIA LOCKYER's CREDENTIALS DISPUTED,” & which made it fairly obvious that if she had been Jane Doe instead of Mrs. Bill Lockyer, and had not also had a drastically larger war chest than the candidates, virtually no one would have taken her and her candidacy seriously.
And the East Bay Express on Oct 13, 2010 had an article titled, “BILL's MILLION DOLLAR BABY,” and which also provided some overview of her “qualifications” to anyone who was open minded, and rather than merely a puppet for the Democratic Party machine.
And after her serious addiction to drugs became totally public, in other words after the election, the Chronicle had an article titled, “DON'T TRUST DEMOCRATS TO FIX NADIA LOCKYER MESS,” & which gave further insight as to how someone as totally unqualified as Nadia Lockyer was still able to win the election.
But perhaps we shouldn't completely blame Nadia for running, since it is quite possible that Nadia was far too stupid to even realize she was stupid. But Bill Lockyer certainly realized she was mentally lacking and totally unqualified for the position of AC Supervisor, so while Nadia might be at least partially off the hook in her decision to run for Supervisor, however Bill is not.
And now Bill himself wants to become the Chancellor of the California State University system, a system that has approx four hundred thousand students, a budget of several billion dollars per year, and a salary of approx 500K. But some people might forgive him for supposedly only making one major mistake, in other words pushing Nadia for Supervisor.
So therefore he had better hope that the close relationship he had with organized crime kingpin M.L. “Larry The Liar- Arlington National Cemetery” Lawrence does not become more public.
(You can read the barest tip of the iceberg of the sleaze regarding Lawrence by typing such terms as “Larry Lawrence” or “M. Larry Lawrence” into Wikipedia. But to summarize Lawrence and his political connections, he provided so much in election campaign contributions and under the table bribes to the big boys, that therefore such power brokers as Bill Lockyer, Willie Brown, and Dianne Feinstein, etc, pretended that Lawrence was a legitimate businesssman. And to provide just a tiny bit more info about Lawrence, a major San Francisco office building that he was the primary owner of went up in flames at 3AM in the morning, in other words the standard time for mafia arranged arson fires in office buildings, and just before CAL OSHA was to come back and do a further and much more thorough investigation into the building's many asbestos violations.)

Mostly as a result of the fact that in the last few years there has been a greatly increased amount of publicity concerning certain priests who had a long history of sexually abusing children, and while also the relevant institutions generally had done little or nothing to stop it, there is now many times more emphasis than previously toward the idea that far and away the most important goal of society should be to protect the young, in other words the children.
So therefore why is Nadia Lockyer, a married mother who even took her young son with her when she went to meet her boyfriend to do drugs, allowed to have any contact whatsoever with her young child. Frankly, and while she might not be a mean or evil person, however she is definitely a world class idiot and nitwit, and is obviously not even qualified to be a junior assistant manager of a small child's sidewalk lemonade stand, let alone in charge of a child.
In fact she is not merely a world class idiot and nitwit, but she is a world class idiot and nitwit who also is an extreme drug addict.
In other words if they had an international competition to see who could be the most unfit mother, Nadia Lockyer would be a serious contender for the Olympic gold medal.
Frankly if an ordinary person, and rather than a bigshot, had managed to get regularly written up in the newspaper for such extremely outrageous conduct involving and mixing her child, driving, and drugs, it is hard to imagine that the DMV would not have yanked her driver's license at least months ago and Child Protective Services would also at least months taken the child away from her.
Perhaps some time in the future, and while she is on drugs, she can drive her son to school or pick him up from school, and then due to drug impaired driving she can crash into at least a few other schoolchildren and seriously injure or kill some of them.
So for the good of both her son and society, the child should be taken away from her, and unless we want her son to eventually also end up as a drug addict, and just like his mother is.

We DON'T live in a real democracy when a highly funded statewide politician, dumps $1,500,000 into a small local race, and twists the arms of local leaders to support his wife for no other reason than its HIS wife.
She wasn't a “good fit” except for the money and connection.
But for the overwhelming financial injection and her position as his wife, no one would have ever considered her a “good fit”. The election was essentially hijacked through money and arm twisting.

Remember Bill Lockyer's promise to Nadia and the people of ALCO: “I will do whatever it takes to get Nadia elected”
Bill Lockyer and his Sacramento machine are at the center of this scandal. There is no doubt in my mind…and I don't believe I'm alone in this thinking…that Bill and his people knew Nadia had addiction issues before she filed to run for office. Further, as her problems started to surface during the election, they did everything in their power to cover-up Nadia's behavior.
The lies and deception that led to the Lockyer scandal should remain a strong reminder to all voters of ALCO…especially as you prepare to elect a replacement for Nadia in Dist #2

Are your lives so perfect that you are able to tear people to shreds. I am going to assume not, since so many of you are too gutless to show your names.
I really believe you have to walk in one's shoes before you can judge. So, please try this pair on.
Do you need a cup of coffee or a cigarette to get your day going? If yes, that's an addiction and how do you think you would behave if they took it away and said you can't have it again? That's when your body takes over and your mind loses control of it's senses. You are probably going to say “but cigarettes are legal” but so were cigarettes at one time.
Cigarettes. Are you a smoker. Just about illegal and I bet some of you would kill if you couldn't get your hands on one. I have been trying to quit for years and have been successful yet.
I personally know Nadia and know she is a good person that went down a wrong path. I doubt there is one of you that can say she did a bad thing to you. She needs help and support to build her self esteem back up, not your comments that continue to tear her down.

I’ve read a lot on here about Bill Lockyer as a politician. Honestly, I have no personal opinion on his performance in Sacramento. I do have a little to say regarding his marriage to Nadia. Politicians throughout history don’t fare well in marriage. These two Politicians tried very hard to stay together. In fact, even though Bill and Nadia are divorcing, He is still very involved with Nadia’s continued care, legal issues, and care of Diego. He worked with the courts to restore Nadia’s ability to see her child, and he is working to ensure Nadia has every chance to find sobriety. In general- He’s putting the well being of Nadia and Diego before the divorce. In speaking as a divorced person, I wish I had the strength and wisdom to have done the same thing. I look at Nadia’s arrest as more of a family intervention. This family has done everything possible to help Nadia. The problem is, YOU CAN’T FORCE SOMEONE TO ACCEPT THE HELP. To compound the problem you have a very sick woman, who has the ability to manipulate you into ignoring what’s staring you in the face. There are times when a person’s only hope for recovery is a pair of handcuffs and a police car. Luckily in this case, Nadia was not out driving around with her child while under the influence. There is so much misinformation on this site. I really hope the focus of this forum shifts back to the people who are in a position to improve the future of Alameda County.

I typically read this stuff and move on, but I wanted to say a few things regarding the latest news about Nadia. I know Nadia, Bill, and their child Diego, and I’m very aware of the background which has led up to this point. Drug addiction is a horrible thing and the PROCESS of recovery is a long road that requires a tremendous amount of strength to travel.
I have a few points I’d like to make and I would appreciate everyone’s patience by not responding with pointless “mean spirited” comments. The names involved in this story are all connected to real people, with real families, real jobs (or lack of), and real feelings. I continually read comments regarding Nadia and her past performance as a Supervisor, Mother, Wife, Addict, Lawyer, ect. I have also read a lot regarding Bill Lockyer, their 9 year old Diego, and of course Steve Chikhani.
I’d like to start off by reminding everyone- we live in a democracy and WE elected Nadia to the position of Supervisor. On paper, in media ad’s, and past job performances, she appeared to be a good fit. She lacked political experience but sometimes that’s refreshing, and I think a lot of people felt at ease with Bill Lockyer standing by as a safety net. Please hold off your Bill Lockyer comments until you finish reading this.
Nadia walked into her Supervisor job with demons that she tried to keep under control. I can’t speak for her staff, but I can tell you from my personal experience, it would have been hard to not see her slow decline. Personally, I feel a lot of us realized she had a problem but nobody wanted to believe it. She’s a very nice person, very accomplished, very positive, and doesn’t match the stigma we tend to put on drug addicts. In reality drug addicts lie, cheat, and steal. They do what they need to in order to fulfill their need for drugs. They drive under the influence, they make bad decisions, they lower their moral compass, and they live as actors in order to survive. It really doesn’t matter who exposed Nadia to meth or when, it happened and she became addicted. The addiction impacted her health, career, reputation, family, and criminal history. In addition to her personal consequences, her addiction led to the end of her family. It’s a huge price to pay. I would totally understand the newsworthy aspect of this story if Nadia was still a public figure, but she isn’t. I can only assume continued coverage of this story is a result of her last name and our attraction to watching train wrecks. There are a lot of pictures, videos, allegations, and misinformation circulating about Nadia. I truly feel it’s a blessing and testament to her strength this hasn’t turned into an irreversible tragic story. Again, this woman was humiliated by videos, pictures, resignation, divorce, court hearings, rehab, and so on… These are all huge blows- but imagine having every blow covered by the media. Also, imagine not just having it covered, but also people “anonymously” commenting on your life. It’s a lot to handle under any circumstance and hopefully forums like this don’t push her to the point of no return.

Since she obviously still has an extreme problem with drug addiction, therefore the DMV should have already revoked her driver's license, and before she seriously injures or kills someone while driving under the influence.
And in fact a host of local agencies, and including various local police departments and the Alameda County Sheriff's office, should have made out the appropriate reports, AND THEN SENT THEM TO BOTH THE DMV and the CALIFORNIA STATE BAR, and instead of all of those local agencies pretending not to notice that she is an extreme and totally out of control drug addict, and who should not even be allowed as a passenger in a car, let alone driving a car.
And if while driving a car she kills someone while she is under the influence, it will be interesting to see all of those public servants who will insist under oath in their testimony in any court trials related to wrongful death that they did not previously secretly let her go, AND OF COURSE WITHOUT MAKING OUT ANY POLICE REPORTS SINCE SHE WAS POLITICALLY CONNECTED, at least ninety nine percent of the time when she was observed or stopped while obviously under the influence.

If only 100 (a presumption- I used a low number so you could follow along) voters cast votes in Dist #2 special election and there are 4 candidates, a candidate with as few as 26 votes could win (That is also known as 26%). Now if there are 5 candidates, a candidate with as few as 21 votes could win (That is also known as 21%). Therefore, increasing the number of candidates by 1, reduces the potential needed votes to win by 19% (26-21=5/26)…This is a HUGE percentage change and can seriously impact the potential outcome of any special election.
Not for a minute have you fooled me with your write-in push…nor do I suspect you have fooled many others…though I do hope I'm getting through to all those people who “might” be confused by your BS.
Mary, as does Nadia, need serious help…Mary, get out of public service and get your lift in order and stop screwing with the people of ALCO.

I know for a fact that they would be willing to do their part if others who feel similarly get on board with the “Draft” movement. That's how you build a movement and maintain momentum. I'm not suggesting for one minute that any one individual alone can 'take an election' without a coordinated effort. The point that has been lost here is that ALL four of the names on the ballot are tainted, some more than others. To borrow from the late 'Howard Beal,' it's up to the people to say “We're mad as hell, and are not going to take it anymore!”
If on the other hand the majority is fine with the selection at hand, then by all means cast a lever for whomever you like. However, I will not submit to the 'lowest common denominator' or 'least of the evils.' Been there and done that; doesn't work too well in the end. At the end of the day I need to be able to live with myself, so I will do my part to build momentum and vote for an honest choice.

TRY to pay attention as class is now in session: As 5:49 truthfully points out–about the only thing that he/she gets right–“might”dilute….The fact is that with an organized write-in campaign [hardly a 'protest,' 6:32] you have your viable candidate in Apodaca or Steele if you prefer, and you contact the Registrar to prepare for this accordingly. With me so far? I'll slow it down for you. I don't come from the world of 'might this,' 'possibly that,' or 'could something else.' I hail from the real world. To make the asinine assertion that each of the four candidates is going to garner 25% of the vote and then + 1, well, clearly you know nothing about the mechanics of the electoral process. Not even close. Further, you have way too much infatuation with Hayashi. Let me remind you of just a few years ago with the state senate race that included candidates Dutra, Corbett, Klehs, and someone else. Everyone from here to the hills cried “It's Dutra's for the taking. He has the name, incumbency, $$$,” etc. You getting the point? Now while true, there was no organized write-in with that election, the big, bad, machine money bags didn't take it. In fact, he came in either last or next to last. While I never tend to underestimate the ignorance nor apathy of the American electorate, I have now found someone more cynical and conspiratorial than even I am. Problem is, you don't have much happening upstairs to share with the populace, and that's the real tragedy. My bottom line is that I don't vote for tainted or rancid, thieves, ho's or carpetbaggers, which eliminates the current crop of four. School is now out, pupils.

5:49, Well, actually your math is not correct.
Whether with 5 candidates or 4 candidates, the winner is still the one with the most votes.
In all probability, whether there are 4 candidates or 5 candidates, it will take over 30% to win.
The vote for a write-in is a wasted vote, but not a dilutional vote.
In fact a vote for the 4th candidate (His name excapes me) is about as worthless as one for a 5th “write-in candidate.
Voting for a write-in candidate is similar to not voting at all. In that the votes for the write-in won't even be mentioned by name in the news.
Only the voter will be aware of their “protest” vote.
A tactical voter will decide who is the most objectional candidate and then near the election day, see who among the other candidates has the best chance to beat that objectional candidate. Casting your vote for the remaining one with the best chance.
In this case if you just can't stomach Hayashi, wait and see who is polling best among the others, then vote for them, even if you have to hold your nose in doing so.
Otherwise you face the very real prospect of having Hayashi's smirk to stare at for the next 2, 4, or 8+ years.
Allow her to win because you chose a write-in candidate and you are responsible for allowing her back in office.
I can tell you, Mary Hayashi is cheering for you to throw your vote away on a write-in candidate.

Let me help you with the math of this special election:
Current Dist 2 Election Math:

Your write-in candidate Math:

Including in regard to my previous remarks on Nadia Lockyer and the totally corrupt California State Bar, in other words the organization that pretends to monitor and regulate California's lawyers, and also pretends to have as its primary goal pretecting the general public, and including from crooked, corrupt, and incompetent lawyers:
If in the future Nadia Lockyer while on drugs and driving a car seriously injures or kills any pedestrians or drivers or pasengers in other cars, or maybe even her own son, we should then probably give a big “Thank You” to the totally corrupt CSB and its secret system of two sets of books.
Since more than likely for a long time the totally corrupt CSB has probably been covering various things up in regard to Nadia Lockyer, and including at least some of the details of a pattern of alcoholism and drug use that may very well go back at least a few years, and maybe even many years.
And just think if the incident at the motel that happened in about February had not resulted in a police report, but instead, and just like most incidents involving the politically connected getting themselves in embarassing situations, had instead been handled quietly and with no police report being made out.
HOWEVER NADIA LOCKYER WAS PROBABLY SO EXTREMELY FULL OF DRUGS WHILE AT THAT MOTEL, AND THEREFORE FUNCTIONING AT THE MENTAL LEVEL OF PERSON WITH AN IQ FAR BELOW EVEN HER SHOE SIZE, THAT THEREFORE SHE SHOT HERSELF IN THE FOOT BY INSISTING THAT A POLICE REPORT BE MADE OUT, AND RATHER THAN HAVING THE WHOLE THING BEING HANDLED QUIETLY AND OFF THE RECORD.
But if there had been no police report made out in regard to that motel incident, then almost certainly any lower ranking whistleblower employees in Alameda County government who eventually had had the “gall” and the “nerve” to state that Nadia Lockyer was in a mental daze, totally incompetent, and not doing her job would have been fired for making “unfounded” accusations, “lying,” and needlessly “causing trouble.”
And of course the lawyers in Alameda County's DA's office and County Counsel's office would have also gone through their choreographed charades of an “investigation” to “prove” that the whistleblowers' accusations against Nadia Lockyer were “stupid,” “unfounded,” and “ridiculous,” and just as the liars with law licenses in those two offices almost always do when the wrongdoer is a bigshot and/or politically connected.

In that Nadia Lockyer is in her early forties, therefore she was born in about 1970. And she received her law license from the California State Bar in 1997, in other words when she was in her mid or late twenties.
But she married Bill Lockyer in about 2003. So since she was a member of that sleazy mafia which calls itself the legal profession, in other words the group that has drastically higher rates of alcoholism and drug abuse than any other major profession, for about six years before she married Bill Lockyer, that therefore brings up the question as to whether she was already an alcoholic and/or a drug addict even before she got involved with Bill Lockyer, and perhaps maybe years before she even became pregnant.
(Since mothers who during pregnancy drink alcoholic beverages and/or engage in the abuse of illegal drugs often cause major damage to their unborn children, and since lawyers have far and away the highest rates of alcoholism and drug abuse of any major profession, therefore the CSB should repeatedly warn young lawyers that if they are thinking of having children, that then they should eliminate their drinking and abuse of illegal drugs at least while they are pregnant.)
And also since the California State Bar has a secret system of two sets of books, and including so that the general public will not learn the truth about the higher than skyhigh rates of alcoholism and drug abuse among lawyers, therefore that raises the issue as to whether the CSB for years had been privately reproving Nadia Lockyer in regard to problems with alcoholism and/or drug abuse and/or had enrolled her in such programs as “The Other Bar,” and which is one of the secret programs the legal profession uses to provide treatment for lawyers who are alcoholics and/or drug addicts, and while not letting clients know that the lawyer who is charging them two hundred dollars or more per hour very likely has such an extreme problem with alcoholism and/or drugs, that therefore he or she is almost totally incoherent, and therefore probably not even worth minimum wage.
Of course lawyers who are drug addicts, and in addition to not being worth even ten cents per hour for the services they provide to clients, also have an extreme tendency to embezzle the money of their clients so as to get the funds to feed their drug habits.

Her addiction to drugs is so strong, that I therefore wonder if she would have still had illegal drugs around the house even if her child was only one, two, or three years old – and therefore likely to be crawling around on the floor and also going into cabinets, etc, and then often putting into his mouth, and sometimes also eating and ingesting, virtually everything he saw, touched, and went near – and rather than the eight or nine years old I believe he is.
And since she seems to be heavily into meth (and perhaps also other illegal drugs), and the presence of meth creates an extremely toxic and poisonous environment in the house to all present and future occupants of that house, therefore on that basis alone she should lose all rights to custody of her son.
In fact and while her problems with drugs only became public earlier this year, and due to that incident at the motel which happened in about February, however an interesting and extremely relevant question is whether she was into illegal drugs at least a few years, and maybe even several years, earlier, and maybe even when she was pregnant with her son who is now about nine years old.
(In fact, many lawyers become alcoholics and/or drug addicts even before they get their law licenses, in other words while they are still in law school.)
NOTE: A few years ago I read an article in which a lawyer who got her law license a few decades ago, in fact back in the mid 1970's, said that when she was a young lawyer a judge told her not to take the practice of law too seriously since he said she was just going to get pregnant anyway.
And when I read that comment in which she quoted the judge, and since I was already well aware that lawyers have far and away the highest rates of alcoholism and drug addiction of any major profession, I then said to myself that instead the judge should have warned young lawyers, and including her, to be extremely careful not to be drawn into the legal profession's culture of alcoholism and drug addiction, and including since mothers who consume alcohol and/or illegal drugs during pregnancy often cause extreme harm to the fetus, and that if they were already alcoholics and/or drug addicts, then they should start associating and socializing with a different, and cleaner and better, set of lawyers, in other words lawyers who are not into the boozing and drug scene.

Makes no sense at all. A vote for any candidate, write-in or ballot, is a vote for THAT person. Not Obama, not Clinton, not the man in the moon. It is only for that person. Therefore, if one votes for 'X' and not Hayashi, 'X' receives the vote. Doesn't go to Valle, Green or Turnquist. It goes to 'X.'
You need to learn simple math. Unless you're suggesting that all write-in votes are then transferred to Hayashi's column. Is that what you're alleging? Better have some concrete proof of that. For that would be a real conspiracy.

When it first became public some months ago that Nadia Lockyer had a serious problem with drugs, I then checked her record with the California State Bar, and which is sometimes referred to as the CSB, in other words the totally corrupt organization that pretends to regulate and monitor California's lawyers and also pretends to protect the general public from crooked, corrupt, and incompetent lawyers. And over the last several months each time another article came out relating to the Nadia circus, I then again checked her record with the CSB, and including last night and also about only five minutes ago.
And according to the profile on Nadia listed on the totally corrupt CSB's website, she is still in good standing with the CSB, is still listed as ACTIVE with the CSB, and therefore still allowed to practice law in California.
In fact Nadia's profile on the CSB's website states:
1. “No public record of discipline” and
2. “No public record of administrative actions.”
So that brings up the question as to what will she have to do be publicly disciplined and publicly disbarred by the CSB, perhaps do a Jim Jones incident and arrange to have over seven hundred people murdered???

1. Concerning the comment of 5:51PM. Actually, her son – and perhaps also all of her neighbors, all residents of Alameda County, and any and all pedestrians and other drivers anywhere in the state of California – should get at the very minimum at least a temporary restraining order, and preferably a permanent restraining order, against Nadia Lockyer.
2. In regard to her previous comments of the last few months that she was no longer doing drugs, even previous to the news of this latest incident I still always thought those statements by her should have been taken just as seriously as the standard lies and garbage that most lawyers regularly engage in almost every single time they open their mouths.
3. As a result of this still latest arrest in regard to drugs, Nadia Lockyer is now qualified, or at least based on the “standards” of the legal profession, to not just be a lawyer but also to be a special master.
NOTE: While the California State Bar pretends that in order to become a special master a lawyer has to have a proven record of being even more honest and trustworthy than the typical lawyer, however of the two lawyers I got to know somewhat who became, and with the CSB's approval, special masters, both of them were unusually sleazy even based on the “standards” of lawyers.
Frankly, I think many of the lawyers who become, and with the approval of the CSB and their local court system, special masters, that there is often an understanding that the special master will become a co- conspirator and partner with certain corrupt local judges in embezzling and money laundering, and also in plundering estates.
