DUMANIS ISSUE 1 – DIANA GONZALEZ’ SUPPOSED LACK OF EVIDENCE.
http://www.truecrimereport.com/2010/10/diana_gonzalez_had_protection.php
Dumanis is not Transparent and open regarding previous closed cases dropped by the DA’s office.
The District Attorney Office considers some women as non-credible. The non-credible tag is made by
Dumanis’ Office without meeting the victims, and without as much as a phone interview before
dropping felony charges of rape and kidnapping. Felony charges are dropped against the
recommendations of the Police Department who actually investigated the victim’s claims.
The calling of victims as non-credible is the same reason why, although the Police Department
recommended multiply arrested, and domestically violent Armando Gabriel Perez be prosecuted;
Bonnie Dumanis chose to drop all charges based upon the credibility of the 19 year old witness and victim
Diana Gonzalez and “insufficient evidence.” The murderer is still at large after fleeing to Mexico.
This was the second time Dumanis dropped the ball, and did not protect Diana before she was murdered.
The previous year in 2009, Dumanis dismissed charges against Perez for a separate wife beating arrest.
The family including her 9 month old orphaned infant daughter, and her parents cannot get Dumanis to
meet with the family or give a reason why Dumanis dropped the chargers of rape and kidnapping,
before 19 year old City College Nursing student Diana was murdered by her estranged 37 year old
husband Perez. The family has protested and marched from City College to the DA Office to get
answers to their many outstanding questions. The family is getting nowhere in trying to set up a
meeting with Dumanis to get answers, and change the system that did not protect their family member.
If a woman is deemed credible by the Police, but not credible by Dumanis, and the case is not a slam
dunk, there is no justice or public safety for women in San Diego County.
On the upside for Dumanis, by prosecuting only slam dunk cases like where there is a taped
confession, the District Attorney can boast of her 94 percent Felony Conviction Rate record, amongst
the highest in the State of California. And a reason why she want to be our next Mayor. No thanks.
Physical Evidence documented on the attached 13-Page San Diego Regional Crime/Incident Report includes
the following statements from Police Officer Tangog :
“EVIDENCE:
• I transported GONZALEZ to the Independent Forensics Services.
All evidence was retained and impounded by Claire NELLI, RN.;
• Officer Bartolomei processed GONZALEZ’ vehicle at her residence.
See his report for further information.
• Officer Mora impounded surveillance video from the EZ 8 Motel. See her report for further...
FOLLOW-UP. At Detective Kindred’s discretion.”

“Three weeks prior to her murder, [Diana] Gonzalez had told police that [her estranged husband
Armando] Perez kidnapped her from City College and held her captive in a motel where he beat and
raped her. Perez was arrested but the D.A.'s declined to file charges and Perez was released.”
http://www.cbs8.com/story/13368320/city-college-murder-victim-sought-help-from-family-justice- center?redirected=true “At a news conference Wednesday, Dumanis said, "We don't file cases
where there is insufficient evidence to support a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt."”

DUMANIS ISSUE 2 - Former Police Officer Anthony AREVALOS – CURRENT CASE.
http://www.voiceofsandiego.org/data-drive/article_0d043848-9e07-11e0-9d71-001cc4c03286.html
“Gretchen von Helms, an attorney representing [Former San Diego Police Officer Anthony] Arevalos,
said prosecutors told her it was dismissed because the accuser had credibility issues. Von Helms said
prosecutors frequently rely heavily on the testimony of accusers in sexual assault cases. "Based on my
experiences," she said, "there has to be serious credibility issues for that not to go to trial." “
(Despite of being kidnapped and raped by her estranged husband, DA Bonnie Dumanis refused to
prosecute. Gonzalez was murdered shortly afterward, it is suspected by her husband. Who then
disappeared. Credits: Family photo)
ISSUE FOR FURTHER RESEARCH: How many cases were referred from the Police Department to the
District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis’ office for Domestic Violence (DV) ? How many were dropped?
How many were prosecuted? How many dropped hoodlums, had further DV charges by the Police?
DUMANIS ISSUE 3 - CYNTHIA SOMMER – Petty Behavior to a wrongly accused Marine widow .
http://www.freecynthia.com/ Still has felony murder charges handing over her head, after
exonerating evidence.
Cynthia Sommer was target by Dumanis as a murderer for profit; due to her sexual promiscuity,
lifestyle, and inappropriate grieving after her young marine sergeant husband Todd Sommer died in
February 2002 of a heart attack. Dumanis’ Office railroaded the young mother of four into jail during
the televised trial on Court TV calling her a “Black Widow” with breast implants that had raunchy
parties in Tijuana paid for using the supposedly-murdered Marine’s life insurance policy for military
widows. The case was a Tabloid affair. Cynthia Sommer, was targeted mainly based upon her
promiscuity of sleeping with her husband’s marine friends, after his sudden death. This murder case
brought world-wide media attention to San Diego. District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis was teaching
these military Black Widows a lesson on insurance fraud.
The 2002 original autopsy performed by the military pathologist claimed that the Marine NCO died of
a “heart attack.” In 2005 Dumanis retested the tissue sample evidence again and found acute arsenic
poisoning as the cause of death and reclassified the death of Sergeant Todd Sommer as murder by his
wife for money.
http://articles.latimes.com/2008/apr/19/local/me-poison19 Cynthia Sommer was convicted of murder
with special circumstances -- murder for hire and murder by poison -- that carried a mandatory
life sentence without possibility of parole. Cynthia Sommer spent 861 days in jail before she was
exonerated in 2008 with new “overlooked evidence and new scientific scrutiny had poked holes in the
prosecution's assertion that she used arsenic to kill her husband, [Marine] Sgt. Todd Sommer “...
“ In announcing the dismissal of the charges Thursday, Dumanis said, "Justice has been done."

DUMANIS ISSUE 5 - Superior Court Judge Einhorn – Boycott by Dumanis’ Peremptory Challenge.
Dumanis and her office of Prosecutors Boycotted Superior Court Judge Einhorn because he refused to agree with
Dumanis that the La Jolla Bird Rock Bandits are legally considered a gang under the law. Judge Einhorn did not
allow Dumanis to prosecute for extra charges of murder during gang activity.
How noble of our public servant. Dumanis is violating State and Federal Laws only to protect us citizens from the
Judiciary Branch of our own government. Superior Court Judge Einhorn was appointed, then elected, and then re- elected numerous times by the Citizens of the County of San Diego to preside over both civil and criminal cases.
Dumanis is not honoring the will of the voters who put Judge Einhorn in office and is violating the Separation of
Powers Doctrine between the Executive Office of which the District Attorney office is classified, and the Superior
Court which is the Judicial branch which Judge Einhorn is classified. Dumanis actions are Unconstitutional at both
the State and Federal level . Therefore, the State Attorney General Jerry Brown and the United States Attorney
General Eric Holder should investigate these Unconstitutional acts by Dumanis since she has violated the
California Constitution Article 3, Section 3.
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 3, SECTION 3.
The powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial. Persons charged with the exercise of one
power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this Constitution.
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 5 EXECUTIVE, SECTION 13.
Subject to the powers and duties of the Governor, the Attorney General shall be the chief law officer of the State. It
shall be the duty of the Attorney General to see that the laws of the State are uniformly and adequately enforced.
The Attorney General shall have direct supervision over every district attorney and sheriff and over such other law
enforcement officers as may be designated by law, in all matters pertaining to the duties of their respective offices,
and may require any of said officers to make reports concerning the investigation, detection, prosecution, and
punishment of crime in their respective jurisdictions as to the Attorney General may seem advisable. Whenever in
the opinion of the Attorney General any law of the State is not being adequately enforced in any county, it shall be
the duty of the Attorney General to prosecute any violations of law of which the superior court shall have
jurisdiction, and in such cases the Attorney General shall have all the powers of a district attorney. When required
by the public interest or directed by the Governor, the Attorney General shall assist any district attorney in the
discharge of the duties of that office.

"When asked about the boycott Wednesday, Dumanis issued a one-paragraph statement in which she called
Einhorn a "well-respected jurist'' but did not give reason for the standoff. "This decision was made after careful
consideration and thoughtful review over an extended period of time,'' she said. "It is a judgment call made in the
best interests of our clients, the People of the State of California, and the cases we are prosecuting.""

“... Judges are in short order, too. Last February, San Diego Superior Court was able to afford eight retired
judges as permanent staffers. This coming February, however, the court will be down to just one retired judge on
permanent status. Add to that the retirement of three judges in 2009. That puts the court down 10 judges ---- "and
that is very, very significant," Enright said. "It is going to be challenging to make sure the courtrooms are
covered." Also on his plate: dealing with the boycott of Judge John Einhorn by the San Diego County district
attorney's office. Since September, prosecutors have been exercising their legal option to ask that he not hear their
new cases; District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis has refused to say why. Now it falls to Enright to help mediate a
solution. "We are in discussions," Enright said, adding that Einhorn is his personal friend. "It's a difficult
situation, but we will try to resolve it as best we can." All of this comes as the court won the legislative OK for a
$650 million, 17-story, high-rise courthouse in downtown San Diego to replace the crumbling old one that ----
blame it on asbestos ---- requires maintenance men to wear Haz-Mat gear when changing a light bulb. The project
is still in its infancy; groundbreaking is still two or three years down the road, Roddy said. “
