[Kzyxtalk] Alicia Bales campaign to defame

[M Massey]

*Introduction: Alicia Bales is program director at KZYX, Philo, a
publicly-funded, tax exempt fm radio station. Ms. Bales is leading a
slander campaign to defame Liz Evangelatos Barney, a social media public
information officer who works in this capacity for the Sheriff’s
Department. *

My letter is in response to the slander campaign against Liz Barney by
Alicia Bales.  Alicia "Little Tree" Bales was the former Mendocino
Environmental Center president where I was a board member.  She, along with
Naomi Wagner, who names herself as the current board president without an
actual election, cried "racist" to a then MEC board member after he posted
on his personal Facebook page* a theory *about the Mexican Cartel and the
rash of fires going on a few years ago.  * The theory *posited by the board
member was that the Cartel may have played a role in starting fires to
destroy marijuana crops and thus, remove competition.  T*he board member
did not emphatically say this was a fact.*  This person was/is
extremely knowledgeable about the Mexican cartel and growing marijuana in
our County having been a grower for many years and was expressing an idea
on his personal Facebook page.

Bales and Wagner launched a campaign to remove the "racist" person from the
MEC board.  He eventually removed the FB post and was forced off the board
and labeled a "racist."

On December 2, 2020, the AVA ran a story about six Mexicans living in Round
Valley who tortured and executed Traci Bland and Kyle McCartney.  Traci and
Kyle, who were white, were kidnapped, tortured and killed.  The six
defendants are known as the Covelo Six with the head of the group led by a
woman. All six had extensive criminal pasts.  One member, Samson Musellini
Little Bear Joaquin's criminal past includes being arrested and charged
with domestic violence battery after allegedly attempting to choke and hit
his pregnant partner.  The AVA's article writes: "Perhaps the most
troubling detail revealed in the charging document are counts six and seven
asserting the Covelo Six "willfully, unlawfully, with the intent to cause
cruel and extreme pain and suffering for the purpose of revenge, extortion,
persuasion and/or for sadistic purpose" inflicted great bodily injury on
both Bland and McCartney.

Who made Alicia Bales the "racist police" for Mendocino County?  Where is
her outrage over this serious crime committed on two innocent people?  To
naively think that the Mexican Drug Cartel isn't active and present in our
County is arrogant, ignorant, and stupid.

Ms. Bales:  You need to publicly apologize to Liz Barney for your own
racism and sexism.  BTW, using your old CB handle "Little Tree" doesn't
make you a Native American.  You insult indigenous people everywhere.

P.S.  To the Editor:  You might want a reporter to look into KMEC Radio
being off the air and the MEC completely shut down. MEC owns the broadcast
license for KMEC.  Funny how the "board" doesn't see this as a problem.
Are you listening Ms. Wagner?
