The 2017-2018 Civil Grand Jury Final Report

San Andreas, CA...Dear Judge Healy, The 2017-2018 Civil Grand Jury respectfully submits its final report in accordance with Penal Code 933(a) to the Calaveras County Superior Court. This year’s Grand Jury was composed of 19 dedicated citizens of Calaveras County who were determined and willing to work extra-long hours making recommendations for improvements to local government. It has been an unforgettable experience to work alongside these individuals who chose to prioritize tasks and duties in order to perform their jurisdictional rights to investigate any local government agencies. They also went far beyond my expectations in taking initiative to attend report writing workshops in Sacramento, the California Grand Juror’s Association conference in Monterey, and additional meetings at the Jury House. Their dedication to the Grand Jury is noted and appreciated.

As an independent investigative body, we were faced with several challenges to acquire specific
information to get our reports done and reviewed in a timely manner; therefore, we would like to
thank the following County’s appointed and elected officials for their guidance and mentorship
throughout our year as grand jurors, and for helping us get through some of the roadblocks we
faced while conducting our investigations: Calaveras County Counsel Megan Stedtfeld;
Calaveras Deputy County Counsel Julie L. Moss-Lewis, Calaveras Deputy County Counsel
Gregory P. Wayland; District Attorney Barbara Yook; Tuolumne County Counsel Sarah Carrillo;
Tuolumne Deputy County Counsel Carlyn M. Drivdahl; Calaveras Superior Court,
Administrative Services Manager Pamela James and County Administration Karen Osborn and
staff.

I want to thank all the grand jurors for putting endless efforts to make my job as Foreperson
possible and enjoyable. I am honored to serve as the spokesperson for this jury. We received and
reviewed complaints together and followed up on crucial information for the benefit of our
community. Each juror took the time to serve and remained exceptional in all duties and abilities
to embrace each task and job. I commend them for their hard work and support as team players
for this Grand Jury. I am forever grateful!

I would like to thank you, Honorable Judge Healy, for your efforts, support, guidance,
mentorship, and unconditional service in making us a stronger Grand Jury. I want to
acknowledge the California Grand Juror’s Association for providing the tools and training to do
the job.

Respectfully,
Vielka Escobar, Foreperson
