San Fernando Valley Republican Club Announcement

Dear Gary,
The next general membership meeting of the San Fernando Valley Republican Club will be on Tuesday, March 7, 2006 at 7:00pm at Galpin Ford, 15555 Roscoe Blvd., (Just east of the 405) 2nd Floor Meeting Room, North Hills.

We will have the following candidates speak to us and answer questions. We might have other candidates who we will introduce as well.


Gary Aminoff, President

Candidate for Attorney General
Main Speaker - Ambassador Pierre Prosper
Main Guest Speaker: Ambassador Pierre Prosper, Candidate for Attorney General. Part of our "Meet the Candidate" series.

Pierre Prosper has directly advised President George W. Bush as well as Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and General Colin Powell. Prosper informed U. S. policy responses during the earliest stages of the War on Terror as well as atrocities committed in areas of conflict. As President Bush's envoy, Prosper negotiated with heads of state, senior intelligence and military officials from around the world to help secure peace, build stability and expand the rule of law in fledgling democracies. Prosper, a lead prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, achieved the first successful conviction for Genocide, and Rape as a Crime Against Humanity. The fourteen month trial was a groundbreaking success for the rights of women, ethnic and religious minorities in developing countries and those threatened by oppressive regimes across the globe. Prosper's legacy is his dedication to conservative values and dominant American principles of equal justice under the law.

Candidate for Sheriff
Ken Masse
In June 1970, Ken began his career as a deputy with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. After graduating from the Academy, he held assignments at the Hall of Justice Jail, Civic Center Security Unit, Norwalk Station and the Training Bureau. He promoted to sergeant in 1982, and spent the next seven years at Lakewood Station.

In 1989, on promoting to the rank of Lieutenant, he held assignments at the Inmate Reception Center, Carson Station, Field Operations Region II Headquarters, Advanced Training Bureau and Transit Services Bureau.

Ken was promoted to the rank of captain by Sheriff Lee Baca in December 2000. For the next three years he commanded the Department's Court Services East Bureau where he was responsible for more than 600 employees assigned to 23 Superior Court facilities within the Citrus, Compton, Norwalk, and Pasadena Districts.

In 2003, he took over Court Services Central Bureau, having responsibility for all the courts in the Los Angeles Civic Center.

After nearly 35 years of service with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Ken retired in March 2005, to pursue his dream to run for L.A. County Sheriff in 2006.

Ken resides in West Covina with his wife, Cheryl, who is a sergeant with the Sheriff's Department. Ken and Cheryl attend Faith Community Church in West Covina.
