Statement

On June 11 2026 at approximately 7:40 am. Traffic officer Yudice was stopped at the corner of 5400 Canmore Ct. I was traveling east on Lochmoor Dr. When I passed officer Yudice we locked eyes and he immediately began to tail me. He followed me for approximately a quarter mile before he pulled me over. I’m a retired law enforcement officer with exempt plates. So I immediately asked why I was getting pulled over. He said my expired registration. There’s no way he could’ve seen my registration tags from where he began to follow me. He profiled me based on looks. I’m a big, bald headed man. When I called him out on pulling me over he said “okay” gave me a nod and quickly handed me a “fix it” ticket because he took it personal. I just moved and my registration is 11 days past due. I’m a former peace officer and a good one. I know I was profiled by Traffic Officer Rodrigo Armando Yudice. Shouldn’t police officers be fighting crime instead of lingering in the same neighborhood day in and day out harassing the residents?

California Public Records Act

§ 6250-6268

The California Public Records Act is a series of laws meant to guarantee that the public has access to public records of governmental bodies in California. In December of 2011, a Superior Court judge ruled that the California Assembly must also disclose budget records of individual lawmakers, after some California newspapers filed a lawsuit accusing legislators of flouting the state’s open records laws.

Public records in the California Public Records Act are defined as “any writing containing information relating to the conduct of the public’s business prepared, owned, used, or retained by any state or local agency regardless of physical form or characteristics.” There is a separate category of “purely personal information” that, although it may be in the custody of a government agency, does not fall under the act. Statute 6255 states a catch all exemption, “The agency shall justify withholding any record by demonstrating that the record in question is exempt under express provisions of this chapter or that on the facts of the particular case the public interest served by not disclosing the record clearly outweighs the public interest served by disclosure of the record.”

Anyone can request public documents in California, and a purpose does not have to be stated. The California Public Records Act does not regulate the use of records obtained from public agencies. One should allow 10 days for an agency to comply with a records request.
