Hello,
Lifelong resident of Santa Ana here.
On Sunday 12/8 Benjamin Vazquez displayed the utmost worst professionalism I have ever experienced/seen.
Benjamin was being rude and spoke back to StephanieMendez who hasbeenadvocatingjustice for her mother after dealing with a violent neighbor who hasassaultedher mother in the past. Sheevenwent to the city council to speak up and Benjamin acted like he never saw her in his life.
Ben would give condescendingreplies to the daughterlike " Well what areyou doing to help your mom?!?" Like asif shehasn't beenreaching out to everyonein the city like the PD and even going to council meetingsto advocate for her mother.
He showed no empathy or an ounce of care toward the daughter and would only reply back with excuses and backtalk for his lackluster efforts to reach out to a person in need.
This is not how a PUBLIC SERVANT should speak towards the residents he is supposed to be working for.
I can' t imagine how Ben must speak to his enemies if that is how he speaks to a woman.
I agree with a lot of Ben' s views and efforts but his actions made me open my eyes to the real person that he sadly is. What's the point of being "Woke" or "Progressive" if you're just going to act like a completejerk to the people he is supposedto help/care for.
Sincerely,
Jason
Thank you very much for your assistance in representing our concerns, Seniors of Metro East

I am emailing in support of Stephanie Mendez and her mother Zoyda Mendez.
I am not a close friend however, i came acrosstheir story through mutual friends. i am also a SantaAna resident. this story particularly struck me becauseit could happen to anyone living in SantaAna, including me. it is unfair that after 5 years, nothing has been done. this makes me wonder what then, would happen if ( God forbid) this or a similar incident happened to my mother? what if i reached out to authorities seeking a solution for my mother or sister or any other loved one and received no support in getting this resolved?
this is unacceptable. we pay our taxes, we pay our rent. we should be able to feel safe and supported in our community. something has to be done.
I fully support Ms. Medina and her mother and demandjustice now! Flores, Dora

Dear Santa Ana officers
I am a long time Santa Ana resident and I am reaching out to you regarding a hearing that happened over a week ago about a neighbor terrorizing my friends mom. As of today no actions have been taken and it' s very concerning. We as the community rely on your team to make us feel safe, please express my concerns to the rest of the members. Hoping a prompt and firm solution is forthcoming.
Respectfully
Christhian Chumpitaz

Hello Mayor Amezcua, I am writing this in the hopes that you can finally help Santa Ana resident, Zoyda Mendez, in her ongoing struggles with her violent and abusive neighbor. To my knowledge you have yet to even reach out to her to try to resolve her situation. If you had enough time to go around my neighborhood in Ward 5 to campaign for Mario Alvarado, who is also endorsed by the police officers union, but don' t have the time to help a resident in need, you do not have your priorities in order and are proving to be in your position for all the wrong reasons. For once please do right by the people of Santa Ana.
Albert Lopez
