SAN DIEGO COUNTY SHERIFF DEPARTMENT

DOCUMENTED HARASSMENT

FLYING PAINT RANCH has been located in the beautiful East County area of San Diego for almost 10 years. In this time we have had good times and bad. Unfortunately when you have bad times you sometimes need to call for help. We have had need for law enforcement on many many occasions over the years for a variety of matters.

They problems range from our Olde English Bulldog getting run over, killed and left at our gate by David Dillon, a neighbor, or having him do harassment with atv's, dirt bikes, fast driving in cars and trucks to create dust and to top it off, doing donuts along our horse pens and along our stable to scare the horses in their stalls, get riders thrown off while in our arena, and it make the horses cough and blinds them so they can't see the fences when they panic and try to run away.

YOU THINK THE SAN DIEGO SHERIFF OFFICERS SUCK? YOU WILL AFTER YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO! They refused to even write an incident report! I had to demand them to do one! Danny Nunez and KIKi Diaz were responding officers. Danny's brother Josh is friends with DAVID DILLON- (guy on the 4 wheeler with the flag) SEE VIDEO BELOW

YES...THERE IS MORE!

ANOTHER DAY. ANOTHER ASSAULT AND ANOTHER "FREE PASS" FOR DILLON BY SAN DIEGO SHERIFF OFFICERS DIAZ and NUNEZ!

Here is a list of a few incident numbers of our complaints against these people, (and their friend Ron Brown who decided to harass us). He would park his truck in front of our yard at 3:00 AM and make lots of noise opening and closing doors to make our dogs bark. It would wwake us up as we knew there were tresspassers by the dog's alerting us. This happened for over 2 months! After 47 different calls to San Diego Sheriff's office for each day that he did this, not once was he told by sheriff officers to stop, given a disturbing the peace citation, a tresspassing ticket or even a courtesy request to act civilized. I placed him under citizens arrest for all of the above harassment and quoted to officers the Penal codes he violated and officers still refused to help. So much for"Serve and Protect".

These neighbors are vile & abusive people. The officers that protect them are too. If I die I have told everyone to look at the SDSO first!

MARIANO VALENZUELLA SHOT MAYA BARRANONE in the stomach and received UNSUPERVISED PROBATION!

Tell me he doesn't have friends in the sheriff dept that let him get away with a serious crime like that. THEY DID NOT RETRIEVE THE GUN FROM HIM!

Our problems with MARIANO VALENZUELLA - After having the San Diego Sheriff department fail me so badly and be corrupt in their ways I then complained to the San Diego Probation Department about Mariano Valenzuella's behavior. The secretary told me they would not do any reports on complaints or log it into his file or even investigate the complaints. I asked to speak to a supervisor. I was then connected with Michael Hurst, a supervisor for Adult Probation. He gave me Brian Barnum's information as that was the case load officer that had unsupervised felons. He also told me there is nothing he would do about the problems I am having, not investigate or write down I even called, and then it came!

Mr. Hurst asked me, and this is a quote! "Can you shoot well?" I said do you mean kill him? Mr. Hurst told me that I have every right to protect myself if I am in harms way or danger from attack. I was outraged! I am supposed to shoot this guy to make the harassment stop? I was so upset I sent out a letter of my disgust in a massive e-mail list to law enforcement agencies and congress/city council members etc.

it is posted below

E-MAIL SENT ON 4/28/0208

To all Who Can Help,

My name is Tiffani Kjeldergaard and I am writing to complain of
the failed protection I have received from the San
Diego Probation Department and its supervision of a
“shooter” who is on their probation books, excuse me,
on their UNSUPERVISED probation books.
How Mariano Valenzuela became on UNSUPERVISED
PROBATIONER when his crimes include (among many)
shooting his girlfriend in the stomach in December,
well that is very frightening!

I have called to complain to his probation
officers when Mr. Valenzuela tried to fight my 17 yr.
old (under age) son a few weeks ago in April 2008. He
threatens me and I have to call the sheriff frequently to protect
our home, animals and selves.

This particular fear and torment threatened by Mariano Valenzuella was a new one. He said,
"Fucking Bitch, I am going to beat up your son" This has topped off all
the rest of the threats. He usually says he is going to burn down my home.

The sheriff will not do their job. They feel there is "limited control
they have over this" and referred me to the probation
department to report his behavior.
Upon my call to probation I left a message with
Julie Alexander at 619-615-6469 on April 2, 2008. My
call was NEVER returned.
I called again on April 11, 2008 to endure a long
list of excuses why I had not been given a call back.
I was also told by Ms Alexander how there would be no
supervision, investigation into, or even a memo in the
file of Mariano Valenzuela about my complaints. My
worries, my calls for help and reports stating I was
in fear for my family and home from this guy were to
go unanswered. When I repeated that statement back in
direct terms, in order to be clear, “probation was not
about to do a thing and they only instruct me to call
the sheriff and report it”… that is when I knew this
SAN DIEGO PROBATION HAD FAILED… and were no good!

I told Ms Alexander that I was reporting this to
higher authorities and she put me on with a
supervisor. His name was Mike Hurst.
I discussed the same info about Mariano Valenzuela and
he discredited my pleas for help and refused to respond to it as well. In fact
Supervisor Mike Hurst asked me, “CAN YOU SHOOT WELL”?
Is that a recommendation? Use a gun to stop this?
What the hell was THAT? Should I just blow Mariano
Valenzuela away? That is the volunteered advice of one
of San Diego’s professional probation officers?
This city IS a bad place if that is what we need to
resort to according to our professional law
enforcement.
I said I would write letters to complain of how
disgusting this was. I was then assured that my
complaint about Mariano Valenzuela would now go into
his file and I would receive a call from the officer
who has Mariano Valenzuela on his list of unsupervised
probation and that letters to complain would be
unnecessary. A man named Michael Marshan (?) was
supposed to be in contact. He has never called and it
is now April 28, 2008.
What kind of passing the buck is this? If you are on
probation my understanding is that you better not have
ANY contact with the law enforcement especially if it
implicates you as a defendant, Mariano Valenzuela has
had several!
He was arrested on April 11, 2008 for stealing a
horse from a local woman named Cheryl Ford. I watched
it all happen from my backyard! She asked me to call
the police for her and told me what was happening.
I have been a next door neighbor to this man for
several years and have endured harassment, threats,
injuries, broken and stolen items from my home and
ranch, assaults with his ATV off road bike,
motorcycles and his VW bug. In the form assault, I am
referring to the right of way a horse has on the
public roads over a vehicle. I have had 3 different falls from
my horses when the speeding vehicles (one of each type
listed) have gone (faster than the speed limit) past
me and scared my horse into a frenzy. I have videos proof.
I am told that CHP should be contacted and CHP said
they don’t deal with off road vehicles violations
unless they see them personally. Does EVERY law
enforcement agency in San Diego lack quality? It is
looking pretty bad when I can’t get ANY help. In March
I had to bury 2 horses that died of injuries as a
result of these actions. One horse, a former racehorse
named My Starlight, a sister to BEST PAL, broke her
leg in an attempt to run away in a panic in her
pasture as Mariano Valenzuela went back and forth in
loud, dirt throwing, revving engine spin outs 10 ft
from the fence line. Then 2 days later the mare in the
pasture next to her gave premature birth to a foal. A
necropsy showed it was due to stress and the baby was
pinching off the umbilical cord. Frequently this
happens when a mare runs and spins around scared and
turns the foal upside down.

Since my attempts to get help on April 2, 2008 I
have had 2 clients remove their horses from my ranch
to keep them safe from the dangers of Mariano
Valenzuela’s behavior, retaliatory wrath and threats.
I will be doing a civil suit against him for the loss
of business and livestock yet I don’t want to end up
hurt or any more animals hurt due to his
uncontrollable anger outbursts.
Please forgive my ranting as I am so flustered and
depressed that I have to live like this in San Diego.
Such a beautiful town I thought. I am not from here
originally and tell all my family and friends to NEVER
come to this meth haven of disgust. The law
enforcement completely fails citizens, they steal,
embezzle, commit all kinds of fraud (as the Mayor and Mike Augiere have
disclosed recently) and that there are no good honest law enforcement
officers you can actually ask for help from to protect
and serve a community or even simply, one citizens
family. I can only imagine the lawsuit against the San
Diego County branches if harm comes to us at this
point.

(After sending the above E-Mail I received a call from MACK JENKINS, he is in charge of the Probation Dept of San Diego. He assured me that sending out my E-Mail I have not done anything except make myself look bad. I was instructed by him to only contact probation if I am having problems within his department staff.)

AFTER MY COMPLAINTS and E-MAIL LETTER WENT OUT... MY SON WAS ATTACKED AND BEATEN IN FRONT OF SEVERAL WITNESSES by MARIANO VALENZUELLA at the El Cajon Trolley Station at 5:30 AM on 8/12/2008

This happened 4 months later so I wrote another letter and mailed it out again, to over 5000 law enforcement (across the nation )recipients..

E-MAIL SENT ON 8/19/0208

To all who are California Residents,
Sad to say, that letter I sent on 4/28/2008 did not help us!
Some of you may have responded with interest on the results or are concerned about any help from San Diego law enforcement I have received since the sending of my letter. I thank you and have horrible news. It brought on more attacks and now injuries to my son!

On 8/12/08 Mariano Valenzuela attacked my son at the El Cajon Trolley stop Station at 5:45 am . My son Nick was dropped off by his stepfather (his ride to work). They were on a motorcycle and it was very cold. About 60 seconds after he got off the bike and his step dad drove off, Mariano Valenzuela came from behind and hit Nick in the head knocking him to the ground face first. There were several witnesses that stepped in to get Mariano Valenzuela off of my son who was stunned. He hit Nick several times and Nick tried to fight back. Nick got onto a trolley to run away and the crowd kept Mariano Valenzuela from pursuing Nick.

I received the call from Nick at 5:50 am and my son was alone, hurt and terrified. He did not know what to do. I told him to call police, since he went to the next trolley stop located in La Mesa, the El Cajon police refused to do a report since Nick was no longer in their city. The crime happened in their city minutes earlier and they instructed him to go back to the trolley stop in El Cajon and call police again. He did, while he was waiting he stayed with trolley police to insure his safety. No police officer ever arrived. No El Cajon Officer even returned my calls or Nick's call throughout the entire day. Nick got a ride at the end of the day at 4:30 PM with his stepfather to the police station. They waited 45 minutes for ANYONE to even answer the call box at the door outside!
After several attempts and 12 hours of trying to get ANY officer to take this report, they were able to talk with Officer J.Sargent at (619) 579-3300 ext 0297. We were given this case # 081208-119
When the report was taken my husband did not know the proper spelling of Mariano Valenzuela or his address. He was told to call and request an amendment on the report. We wanted to amend the report immediately and still to this day would like to, 8/19/08 I called to do so and have NOT received a call back from ANY officer. How am I to include that important information? Meanwhile Mariano Valenzuela is staring hard at us and my clients as he drives by and then he laughs out loud, he has been stopping on the road to threaten us, on the last occasion (8/16/08) I went outside and threw rocks at him and his truck to get off my property and stay away from my son. I heard yelling from in the house and when I went out Mariano Valenzuela had parked and gotten out of his truck, he was yelling at Nick and was coming quickly towards him like he was about to attack. I then threw rocks at the brand new 2009 Chevy he now drives. I knew he would want to get it off my property before I broke a window. I tried to do that so he could explain to the police what he was doing parked on my place and out of his truck. His foot prints would have shown he came at us. I called police to report what had happened and how I threw rocks to defend myself son, they did nothing. Mariano Valenzuela generally feels unstoppable and has told us so.
I placed a call to B. Barnum, a probation officer for Mariano Valenzuela to inform him of the attack on 8/12/08 . I asked that I get a return call to verify his receipt of the message, he did not call. I called again and spoke to him personally to verify he had gotten the information, he said he had, and that was all. He did not even ask how Nick was. I was not informed of the safety and precautions the probation dept plans to take to keep my son, my home, my husband, my animals all safe from Mariano Valenzuela. He has repeatedly threatened to do exactly what he did, he also threatened to burn down my home, telling me, "You're lucky I haven't done it yet". We expect that any minute.

We have rented a storage unit in order to get all valuables out of the house before he does. I raise munchkin cats and have several cats and kittens, including the "World's Smallest Cat" who is in Ripley's 2008 book and will be in 2009 Guinness Book. I have 19 horses and 5 dogs and we worry everyday what will happen to them from Mariano Valenzuela or his friends who have been very retaliatory on his behalf. This guy HAS shot someone, he is KNOW as a drug and alcohol offender, and is currently on probation... yet he can behave like this?
I sit here and write this and I feel all alone and that no one cares.

I guess I can only sum up the one thing I have learned from all this. The original complaint I had about probation officer Mike Hurst who offended me by asking me if I knew how to shoot? I now want to thank him and apologize. I didn't know he was right, I will get a gun and shoot to protect my welfare and Constitutional rights. The law has failed again and this time Nick was hurt. I will not wait to find out what Mariano Valenzuela has in store for us next as he laughs at the honorable phrase "To Protect and Serve".

HERE IS A LIST OF A "FEW" OF THE INCIDENTS THAT WE ACTUALLY GOT REPORT NUMBERS FOR!

SEVERAL REPORTED INCIDENTS WERE NOT DOCUMENTED BY SAN DIEGO SHERIFF OFFICERS SO THERE INTENTIONALLY IS NO PAPER TRAIL.

I have argued with officers at each incident and would demand a report be taken at least to document the call about each incident so I could take the information to a judge for civil court. I was told if I keep calling the San Diego County Sheriff they will not come to my home or answer a call from my address ever again! I repeated what the officer said and he said, "Yep, That's right!"

Officer Phillips was the responding officer (by phone) on an animal abuse complaint. I saw 2 boys, around 13 years old were shooting my Macaw in her cage from the nearby road with a bb gun or pellet rifle. Due to the macaw screaming violently periodically I went to the door and looked outside to see what could be making my bird so distressed and in obvious pain. I looked around the corner and saw them with my own eyes! When I caught them doing it and confronted them they said they were shooting native birds. I called 911 to report it. I recognized one boy as the son of Duane Hart who is a neighbor, I did not know the other boy. My call to authorities was retuned by Deputy Phillips. He listened to my complaint and then told me that it was his son with the Hart boy. I told him I wanted to prosecute or at least make a complaint and incident report for animal abuse/ I went on about how dangerous it is when boys kill and torture animals. They can grow up to be very homicidal! Deputy Phillips told me that he would not give me an incident report, that he would "talk" with his son. I was really upset. He protects his son's violent animal cruelty behavior and refused to do his duty by not filing my complaint. That is corrupt!
