THE ROCCO Recall REPORT
THE ROCCO RECALL REPORT
A Special News Series of Orange Net News /O/N/N/
Orange Unified School Trustee Steve Rocco has responded to the Intent to Recall served to him at the June 7th Orange Unified School Board Meeting. Rocco’s response met the legally required 200 word count limit according to the Orange County Registrar of Voters. The Recall Proponents will now publish legal notices and work on a petition to be submitted to the Orange County Registrar of Voters for approval. Rocco’s Recall Response will be included in the petition. Reportedly Rocco’s Response is a recanting of his experiences with The Partnership, his catch-all phase for those who have allied against him starting with his arrest on shoplifting charges at a Santa Ana Albertson’s grocery store years ago.
Since the Intent to Recall notice, the usually recluse Rocco, has also been making appearances around the Greater Orange Community. On June 12th Rocco was at the 4:30 Opening Session of the Orange City Council Meeting. Speaking under Public Comments, complete with a nose bandage, Rocco reported that he had been assaulted and because of swift action by the Orange Police Department, a suspect had been arrested. In his three minutes of time he also verbally attacked OUSD Trustee John Ortega, and reported that he had investigated each member of the Orange City Council and concluded that were not members of The Partnership. One of Rocco’s associates spoke after Rocco on various subjects as Orange Mayor Cavecche continued to ask him to get to the point of City of Orange affairs. Then Rocco got up from the audience approached his associate at the public podium and said that the two were done and thanked the Council Members for their “censorship” and they both left.
The next day Wednesday June 13th, a still bandaged Rocco and an associate appeared outside the Orange Unified Educators Association (OUSD’s teachers association) office door. As a staffer was exiting the office, Rocco and his associate were standing in the hall at the door. When the staffer inquired if they needed help, they asked for the OUEA President. The staffer invited the pair in to see the OUEA President but they declined and left.
