Verdicts and Settlements: In Re: Nomination Petition Of Emilio Vazquez For The 179th District In The Pennsylvania House Of Representatives, April 18, 2006, Election Campaign / Political Law, PA Supreme Court, Case number 13 EAP 2006, Citation 896 A.2d 507, This was an election appeal under the Public Official and Employee Ethics Act, 65 Pa.C.S.A. 1104(b) (Ethics Act). The matter was instituted by way of Petition by Appellee/Objector Tony Payton, Jr. in the Commonwealth Court under its original jurisdiction. On or about March 6, 2006, Payton filed a Petition challenging the nomination petition of Emilio Vazquez, a candidate of the Democratic party for the office of State Representative in the 179th District. In his Petition, Payton asserted that Vazquez failed to timely disclose his direct and indirect sources of income on his Statement of Financial Interests as required by Section 1104(b) of the Ethics Act. The matter was heard by the Honorable Robert Simpson on March 23, 2006. After the hearing, Judge Simpson found that the material facts were largely undisputed. For example, it was undisputed that Vazquez failed to disclose the direct or indirect sources of his income on his Statement of Financial Interest. Vazquez checked the box marked none in the section which called for disclosure of his sources of income. It was also undisputed that Vazquez did not disclose the name of his employer, but only vaguely stated that his occupation was a Parking Enforcement Officer. Judge Simpson issued an Opinion and Order dated March 24, 2006. Given the above undisputed facts, Judge Simpson found Vazquez did not comply, substantially or otherwise, with the disclosure requirements of the Ethics Act. In so holding, Judge Simpson noted that, unlike the situation in In re Nomination Petition of Benninghoff, 578 Pa. 402, 852 A.2d 1182 (2004), Vazquez did not substantially comply with the Ethics Act because from the face of his Statement of Financial Interest one could not discern: (1) where Vazquez was employed, or (2) whether he derived direct or indirect income from such employment. Judge Simpson found this case was controlled by this Courts decision in In re Braxton, 583 Pa. 35, 874 A.2d 1143 (2005), and the Commonwealth Courts decision in In re Nomination Petition of Anastasio, 820 A.2d 880 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2003), affd per curiam without opinion, 573 Pa. 512, 827 A.2d 373 (2003), both of which set aside a candidates nomination where, as here, the candidate failed to comply with income disclosure requirements under the Ethics Act. The Supreme Court affirmed the Commonwealth Court's ruling that Vazquez was removed from the ballot. Thus, Tony Payton was the sole Democratic Nominee for State Representative in the 179th District, 2006, Tony Payton And The Democratic Voters Of The 179th Legislative District v. Emilio Vazquez And 20 Democratic Voters And Electors, October 25, 2006, Election Campaign / Political Law, PA Supreme Court, Case number 485 EAL 2006, Citation 911 A.2d 503, On May 16, 2006, primary elections were held throughout Pennsylvania, including for State Representative in the Pennsylvania General Assembly. Tony Payton was the lone, duly registered Democratic candidate for State Representative for the 179th District (i.e., for Philadelphia County). Payton duly ran for the Democratic candidacy for State Representative in that primary election. Payton was listed on the ballot as number 13, appearing immediately below box number 12, which was completely covered by a sticker stating Removed by Court Order. Numerous write-in campaigns were launched in the 179th District, including one for Emilio Vazquez by Margaret Tartaglione, Tina Tartaglione, and Carlos Matos. Payton received 947 election machine votes at the May 16th Primary Election. There were also a total of 976 write-in votes, 51 provisional ballots, 18 absentee ballots, and 2 alternative ballots cast in the May 16th Primary Election. There were a total of 60 eligible Democratic voters who signed the book and were allowed to cast votes in the 19th Division of the 23rd Ward. After the election, and pursuant to the Election Code, a hearing before the Philadelphia County Board of Elections was commenced on May 19, 2006. A review of the write-in votes revealed numerous blank entries, illegible names, and names other than Emilio Vazquez. The Commissioners reviewed the 976 write-in votes and determined that 48 should not be counted for Emilio Vazquez. On May 31, 2006, the Commissioners determined that Payton received a total of 962 votes (one alternative, eight absentee, six provisional, and 947 voting machine), and that Vazquez received a total of 943 votes (one alternative, five absentee, ten provisional, and 927 voting machine write in votes). Thus, the Commission found Payton earned a nineteen vote victory over Vazquez. On June 5, 2006, Appellees Vazquez and Democratic Voters Of The 179th Legislative District, by and through their Counsel, Ralph Teti, filed a Petition in the Court of Common Pleas, contesting the election and Democratic nomination of Payton as State Representative in the 179th Legislative District. In their Petition, Appellees requested that 52 write-in votes in the name of Emilio Vazquez for Ward Committee Person in the 23rd Ward, 19th Division be moved and counted for Emilio Vazquez for State Representative in the 179th District. There is, however, a fundamental problem with the relief requested by Vazquez, which was ultimately granted by the Trial Court. There were only 60 voters who voted in the 179th Legislative District for State Representative. Counting 52 write-in votes for Emilio Vazquez for State Representative, while simultaneously maintaining the 20 machine votes for Payton, creates an anomaly of more votes -- 72 -- than voters -- 60. Thus, if Vazquez was granted the relief requested in his Petition, the total number of votes for the 179th Legislative District State Representative exceeded the number of signed-in, eligible democratic voters. Despite the foregoing anomaly, on September 14, 2006, the Honorable C. Darnell Jones, II, President Judge, entered an Order and Opinion moving the 52 write-in votes for Emilio Vazquez for Ward Committee Person in the 23rd Ward, 19th Division to be counted for Emilio Vazquez for 179th Legislative District State Representative, thereby bringing the total number of votes for the 179th Legislative District State Representative Office to 72, exceeding the number of eligible votes. The trial courts ruling, therefore, allowed some voters to cast two votes for the same office. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court affirmed the Commonwealth Court's overruling of Judge Jones' Order. Shortly thereafter, Tony Payton, Jr. was confirmed as the 179th District's State Representative, 2006, Commonwealth v. James Hogeland, March 23, 2005, Violent Crime, Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, Pennsylvania's second weapons of mass destruction case. The defendant was charged with weapons of mass destruction, risking a catastrophe, violations of the uniform firearms act, other related charges along with drug offenses resulting from a July 2004 drug raid at 6532 Torresdale Ave in Northeast Philadelphia where ½ kilo of crystal meth was recovered along an IED Improvised Explosive Device, 56 Explosive Devices, bomb making equipment and 21 firearms some with homemade silencers. The defendant, a convicted meth dealer, from Arizona was receiving regular shipments of meth through the mail being sent from Arizona to Philadelphia. The HIDTA Parcel Task Force and the Philadelphia Police North Narcotics Field Unit along with the District Attorney's Office were able to intercept a package which contained ½ kilo of crystal meth. The package was then outfitted with an electronic tracking device and a controlled deliver was made at 6532 Torresdale. Soon after the delivery, police executed a search and seizure warrant and encountered a violent pitt bull (which resulted in four offices discharging firearms), crystal meth, drug paraphernalia, numerous rifles, shot guns, handguns, explosive making equipment, and a live bomb.  On December 28, 2004, after hearing evidence at Hogeland's preliminary hearing, Judge Neifield held for trial the WMD charge along with the multiple drug and weapon charges. On March 23, 2005, Hogeland was indicted by the U.S. Attorney's Office on drug and weapon charges. He faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 50 years in Federal Prison without parole, 2005, Commonwealth v. Edgar Alamo & Denis Polo, October 8, 2004, Violent Crime, Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, Pennsylvania's second weapons of mass destruction case. The defendants were charged with possession with intent to deliver and related drug offenses for a March 2003 seizure of over 1 Kilo about $150,000 dollars worth of heroin from the Kensington section of North Philadelphia. Defendants ran an organization where they imported raw heroin in from New York, processed and bagged the heroin on Mascher Street in Philadelphia, and then distributed packaged heroin stamped Nyquil to street dealers mainly from Delaware using a minivan with a secret compartment. Delaware dealers would drive up to Kensington, buy the heroin in lots of 350 packets for about $10 per packet and re-sell for $30 per packet in Delaware. Most of the large scale sales occurred at 5th & Girard near a holy Catholic shrine. Commonwealth v. Edgar Alamo CONVICTED & SENTENCED. 5 - 10 Years State Prison, Commonwealth v. Denis Polo CONVICTED & SENTENCED. 6 - 12 Years State Prison plus 5 Years Reporting Probation & $25,000 Fine on October 8, 2004.  During the jury trial and sentencing Members of the Weed & Seed Community attended Court. The result was an aggravated sentence well above the guidelines for Denis Polo who went to trial and was convicted by a jury, 2004, Commonwealth v. Bellmon, et al., November 10, 2004, Violent Crime, Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, Pennsylvania's first weapons of mass destruction case. Defendants were charged with weapons of mass destruction, risking a catastrophe, violations of the uniform firearms act, other related charges along with drug offenses resulting from a July 2003 drug raid at 1715 N. Marshall Street in North Philadelphia near Temple University main campus where police recovered 3.5 pounds of marijuana, marijuana packaging equipment, scales, numerous colored ziplock packets containing marijuana ready for sale, three grenades, an armor piercing artillery dart, 20,000 rounds of ammunition, multiple fully loaded handguns, assault rifles in various stages of assembly, silencers, two snipers suits, body armor, video surveillance equipment, and ammunition making equipment. Father, Johnnie and two of sons, Harry and Benjamin were arrested inside the property after the July raid. Police began this case investigating the murder of one of Johnnie Bellmon's sons in the living room of the 1715 N. Marshall Street home back in April of 2003 as the result of an on going drug war between the Bellmon Family and a rival drug gang. Since then Johnnie Bellmon's other sons, Richard and Harry, along with his brother-in law Jonathan Logan were shot in September of 2004. Richard Bellmon and Jonathan Logan died as a result of that shooting. On Wednesday, November 10, 2004, after Judge Lineberger refused to allow the Jury to consider any of the weapons charges, the Jury returned with a Guilty verdict on all of the counts they were allowed to consider. All three defendants were found Guilty, 2004
