Glynn Johnson is being "Held To Answer"

Puppy beater Glynn Johnson is being "Held To Answer" and he is going trial on all counts!!!

Former LACFD Chief Johnson is accused of hitting his neighbor's 6-month-old German Shepherd mix with a large 12 pound rock and attempting to break the dogs jaws.

The dog's owners had to put their pet puppy "Karley" to sleep.

During the hearing, which lasted for two days, the judge reviewed evidence and testimony and determined there is enough evidence for Johnson to stand trial before a jury.

Glynn Demon Johnson, 54 has pleaded not guilty to animal cruelty, with sentence-enhancing allegations of using a deadly weapon during the commission of a felony in connection with the Nov. 3 beating.
Johnson, who retired from the fire department in disgrace, remains free on $10,000 bail.

The next court appearance is an arraignment on May 15th at 8:30am in Dept. 41 at the Riverside County Courthouse, 4100 Main St. Riverside, 92501.

How fires get their names

Every year in California thousands of wildfires start throughout the state. In most cases, the dispatch center sending the initial resources to a wildland fire will designate a name for the fire, but the first on scene engine or fire official can also name the incident. Fires are usually named for the area in which they start – a geographical location, local landmark, street, lake, mountain, peak, etc. Quickly naming the fire provides responding fire resources with an additional locater, and allows fire officials to track and prioritize incidents by name. For example during the Southern California Fire Siege of 2003, the largest wildland fire in California history, the Cedar Fire in San Diego County, was named after the Cedar Creek Falls area where it started. The destructive Old Fire, which burned during the same time period in San Bernardino County, was named after the road along which it started - Old Waterman Canyon Road.
