This week we continue our ongoing investigation and reportting on local courts, county government, and how law enforcement fits into the picture.
First, we report on attorneys collecting millions in taxpayer money to represent children in family law cases — courtrooms where there are no cameras and no court reporters to create an official record of what happens. Here is the article: davisvanguard.org/2026/06/california-court-reporter-crisis
We take a close look at San Jose minors' counsel attorneys Nicole Ford, Heather Allan, and Eva Martelle, and the taxpayer payments flowing to them that raise serious questions. Our reporting examines whether these attorneys are following the law and the rules governing their appointments — and what it means when the judges making those appointments have accepted meals and awards from the same attorneys appearing before them.
We keep reporting, we keep following the money, and we keep pushing for accountability — and we show others how to do the same.
Mostly we keep going until there are cameras recording in and out of every California courthouse !
