  • When is Santa Ana part of Newport Beach.ca?? Like Disneyland in Los Angeles??
    Why wouldn't any agency protect several young woman with little babies living in Anaheim.ca in The early 80’s being preyed upon by multiple groups of people including being robbed in their houses, manipulation of their work hours, wages, lack of job promotions, mail theft, possible Bogus Bank liens with no notification.
    all the way back to even 1972 one of them being acosted by a man running out of a restaurant near Harbor Blvd and 22 freeway. Waving a gun around just outside the restaurant door, no one called the police not did any restaurant workers come out even with all the noise of the gun going off, the bullet hitting the ground, splattering into the face of a young girl. Where the dangerous person went back into the major chain restaurant after all that!! Why?
    Only Six blocks south of Disneyland?? Carrying on even with moving
