At a minimum, inmates should have access to courses leading to a high school degree, as well as life skills, substance recovery and vocational training.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Yuba County Jail has six months to comply.

"content": "\u003cp>Faced with the toughest race of his 10-year political career, Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Alpine) is relentlessly attacking his opponent, Democrat Ammar Campa-Najjar in bigoted, xenophobic and false smears.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a speech to a GOP women’s group at the end of September, Hunter called Muslims “disgusting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that same speech, as well as in a subsequent television ad, Hunter falsely said Campa-Najjar changed his name three months ago to hide an affiliation with the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. Hunter also falsely claimed that Campa-Najjar is a Muslim trying to “infiltrate” Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Radical Muslims are trying to infiltrate the U.S. government,” Hunter said, in audio obtained by the Times of San Diego. “You have more Islamists run for office at the federal level than ever before in U.S. history.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hunter’s campaign then released a television ad — widely criticized by national security experts — with the same false, bigoted claims. Then, this past weekend, Hunter’s campaign sent out a letter claiming that Campa-Najjar could not be trusted with national security information because he is “a member of the Najjar family, which have been heavily involved in terrorist operations and massacres.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/CalReportTweets/status/1051860551293235200\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The letter was signed by three former Marine generals who are GOP lobbyists and have long been associated with Duncan Hunter and his family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If … Najjar should get elected and see secret information on U.S. military operations that would endanger members of the Najjar family in the Middle East, would he compromise U.S. operations to protect his relatives, the Najjars?” the letter goes on to ask.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Who is Ammar Campa-Najjar?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Born in East County San Diego, Ammar Campa-Najjar is the son of a Middle Eastern father and Latina mother. At age six, his father left the family, leaving Campa-Najjar to be raised by his mother. She raised him in an Eastlake Christian church. He said part of his involvement was a result of “looking for a father figure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When your dad’s gone, you’re left looking for other people to fill that hole,” Campa-Najjar said in an interview with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11699148\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11699148\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-800x488.jpg\" alt=\"Ammar Campa-Najjar speaks at a recent campaign event.\" width=\"800\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-800x488.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-160x98.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-1020x622.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-1200x732.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-1180x720.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-960x586.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-240x146.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-375x229.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/AmmarCampaNajjar-520x317.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ammar Campa-Najjar speaks at a recent campaign event. \u003ccite>(Ariana Drehsler/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Campa-Najjar was a self-described “knucklehead” in high school, and got into minor trouble with teachers for being flippant and defiant. He described being adrift as a young man, until reading “Dreams From My Father,” which Barack Obama wrote years before he was president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He had a huge influence on me, huge,” Campa-Najjar said. “I’m a skinny kid with a funny name. My dad wasn’t around. I was trying to figure out who I was, and what I was about.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campa-Najjar would end up working on Obama’s campaign, before going on to serve in the Obama administration and the U.S. Department of Labor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And just as Obama was smeared with false rumors that he was secretly a Muslim extremist with ties to terrorist organizations, so too has Campa-Najjar. A Christian who held a White House security clearance, the 29-year-old Democrat said he expected Rep. Hunter to paint him as an outsider, even though both candidates are from the 50th Congressional District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“On an emotional level, I was ready for it,” said Campa-Najjar. “And then when I saw [the ads], I’m like ‘this would be funny if this wasn’t so sad.’ It just shows that he’s threatened. I don’t pose a national security risk, but I sure as hell pose a risk to his seat.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recent polling from the L.A. Times and other organizations shows that Hunter and Campa-Najjar are statistically tied, with about 10 percent of this conservative district still undecided. More noteworthy is that Hunter has actually lost ground since releasing the anti-Muslim ads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve had Republicans who came to our office, who said, ‘We were never going to vote for you, but now, Hunter has just gone too far.’” Campa-Najjar said. “The pennies he’s pinching together, that he has left after spending all his money on legal fees, he’s using to give me more name I.D.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those ads center around the fact the candidate’s grandfather was a Palestinian Liberation Organization militant who was killed during the 1972 Munich Massacre. Rep. Hunter points to this relationship as the basis for his anti-Muslim attacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“His grandfather was the mastermind and perpetrator of the 1972 Munich attacks against the Olympics Israeli athletes,” Hunter said in December. “That was his grandfather.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campa-Najjar is frank that one side of his family \u003cem>does\u003c/em> have ties to terror.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know that grandfather, he died 15 years before I was born,” Campa-Najjar said. “I don’t know them. I know my mom. I know how hard she worked. I know what she sacrificed. And I know that if Hunter is focusing on this, he’s in a lot of trouble.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They have to go back three decades to drag up something I have nothing to do with to find questions about whether voters can trust me,” Campa-Najjar added. “I only have to go back three weeks to find questions of whether voters should trust Duncan Hunter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Regardless of Election, Duncan Hunter Faces Uncertain Future\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The 50th Congressional District is a unique district in that its boundaries contain both some of the wealthiest and poorest neighborhoods in San Diego County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are dense urban cores in the district, as well as remote urban outposts high in the mountains. A five-minute drive can separate million-dollar tract houses from RV parks with rundown trailer homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While serious issues face the district, the race has largely become a referendum on Hunter after \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688089/california-rep-duncan-hunter-wife-indicted-on-corruption-charges\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">his federal indictment\u003c/a> this past summer for misusing campaign funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after federal officers charged Hunter, he took to Fox News where he \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688650/duncan-hunter-suggests-wife-to-blame-for-misusing-campaign-funds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">appeared to blame his wife\u003c/a> for any wrongdoing. The indictment also contained unsavory details that Hunter misspent funds for shorts and claimed they were for the Wounded Warriors non-profit. The indictment also contains allegations that Hunter used campaign money to pay for everything from lavish vacations to fast-food trips.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688650/duncan-hunter-suggests-wife-to-blame-for-misusing-campaign-funds\">Duncan Hunter Suggests Wife to Blame for Misusing Campaign Funds\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688650/duncan-hunter-suggests-wife-to-blame-for-misusing-campaign-funds\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/DuncanHunter-1180x769.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Hunter is a former Marine and father of three who served tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. He inherited the seat from his father, also named Duncan Hunter, who resigned in 2008 for a short-lived presidential run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his last election, the younger Hunter won the seat by 27 percentage points. Yet, after the criminal indictment — and his response on Fox News — Hunter has seen his polling plummet, resulting in a toss-up race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the political reality sets in that Hunter could potentially lose his seat, he has turned to conspiracy theories to explain his current problems. His opponent is part of a “Muslim infiltration.” His own legal trouble started when he was targeted by the “[Former U.S. Attorney General] Loretta Lynch and Obama.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a deep state,” Hunter said last month in Ramona. “The Justice Department is corrupt.

Duncan Hunter (R-Alpine) is relentlessly attacking his opponent, Democrat Ammar Campa-Najjar in bigoted, xenophobic and false smears.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a speech to a GOP women’s group at the end of September, Hunter called Muslims “disgusting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that same speech, as well as in a subsequent television ad, Hunter falsely said Campa-Najjar changed his name three months ago to hide an affiliation with the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. Hunter also falsely claimed that Campa-Najjar is a Muslim trying to “infiltrate” Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Radical Muslims are trying to infiltrate the U.S. government,” Hunter said, in audio obtained by the Times of San Diego. “You have more Islamists run for office at the federal level than ever before in U.S. history.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hunter’s campaign then released a television ad — widely criticized by national security experts — with the same false, bigoted claims. Then, this past weekend, Hunter’s campaign sent out a letter claiming that Campa-Najjar could not be trusted with national security information because he is “a member of the Najjar family, which have been heavily involved in terrorist operations and massacres.”\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He described being adrift as a young man, until reading “Dreams From My Father,” which Barack Obama wrote years before he was president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He had a huge influence on me, huge,” Campa-Najjar said. “I’m a skinny kid with a funny name. My dad wasn’t around. I was trying to figure out who I was, and what I was about.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campa-Najjar would end up working on Obama’s campaign, before going on to serve in the Obama administration and the U.S. Department of Labor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And just as Obama was smeared with false rumors that he was secretly a Muslim extremist with ties to terrorist organizations, so too has Campa-Najjar. A Christian who held a White House security clearance, the 29-year-old Democrat said he expected Rep. Hunter to paint him as an outsider, even though both candidates are from the 50th Congressional District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“On an emotional level, I was ready for it,” said Campa-Najjar. “And then when I saw [the ads], I’m like ‘this would be funny if this wasn’t so sad.’ It just shows that he’s threatened. I don’t pose a national security risk, but I sure as hell pose a risk to his seat.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recent polling from the L.A. Times and other organizations shows that Hunter and Campa-Najjar are statistically tied, with about 10 percent of this conservative district still undecided. More noteworthy is that Hunter has actually lost ground since releasing the anti-Muslim ads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve had Republicans who came to our office, who said, ‘We were never going to vote for you, but now, Hunter has just gone too far.’” Campa-Najjar said. “The pennies he’s pinching together, that he has left after spending all his money on legal fees, he’s using to give me more name I.D.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

A five-minute drive can separate million-dollar tract houses from RV parks with rundown trailer homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While serious issues face the district, the race has largely become a referendum on Hunter after \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688089/california-rep-duncan-hunter-wife-indicted-on-corruption-charges\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">his federal indictment\u003c/a> this past summer for misusing campaign funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after federal officers charged Hunter, he took to Fox News where he \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11688650/duncan-hunter-suggests-wife-to-blame-for-misusing-campaign-funds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">appeared to blame his wife\u003c/a> for any wrongdoing.

If the child is put up for adoption, a biological parent could permanently lose custody of the child.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the children separated recently is a seven-year-old boy who was taken from his Mexican mother at the San Ysidro Port of Entry after the two presented themselves legally and asked for asylum last Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KPBS is not releasing the family's names because they are escaping an extreme domestic violence situation in southern Mexico, according to Pinheiro, who is providing pro bono services to the family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the boy, a U.S. citizen, is with Child Welfare Services in San Diego County and a social worker is having trouble finding a home for him, Pinheiro said. The boy was born in the U.S. while his mother was living here for a few years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pinheiro said Customs and Border Protection should have released the mother on parole with a notice to appear in court in order to avoid separating the family. She said that is what usually happens when asylum-seekers enter with U.S.-citizen children, and added that Pinheiro had no prior removal orders or a criminal record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They've essentially stripped (this mother) of her parental rights without any due process even though she's followed all the rules,\" Pinheiro said. \"She's sought asylum legally and she should be with her son right now.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Customs and Border Protection did not respond to repeated requests for comment as to why this particular family was separated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, Pinheiro visited the San Ysidro Port of Entry to determine the status of her client and to request that her client be released on parole for the well-being of her son.

This was confirmed to KQED more recently by the Oakland diocese spokeswoman Helen Osman. However, Osman said it would be a “reasonable assumption” that children had been around Foley while he was officiating in the parish.

But, he said the San Diego diocese removed Foley’s “faculties” in 2015, stripping him of the authority to work as a priest, to conduct mass, or to perform other sacraments. In addition, Foley is not supposed to wear a priest’s collar or refer to himself as “Father Foley.” While Foley has not been laicized, or “defrocked,” Eckery said that could not be ruled out in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent email and text correspondence, Foley told KQED the allegations are “false” and said he has not ministered to children since 1995.\u003c/p>\n\n",

She said the diocese office can find no record of a letter of suitability for him in its files.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11693177/san-diego-diocese-kept-writing-letters-of-recommendation-for-priest-accused-of-abuse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Diego Diocese Kept Writing Letters of Recommendation for Priest Accused of Abuse\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11693177/san-diego-diocese-kept-writing-letters-of-recommendation-for-priest-accused-of-abuse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/AbuseProtestSanDiego-1180x787.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>In addition, Foley was the featured speaker at \u003ca href=\"https://sandamiano.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Damiano Retreat\u003c/a> July 27-29. San Damiano is a sprawling Franciscan retreat on a hill overlooking Danville, with gardens, guest rooms and a large main building with a gift shop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The event was billed as a silent weekend retreat, called “The Beatitudes: Jesus’ 8-Step Program for Happiness.” Forty-four adults attended, including 34 women, 10 men and no children, according to retreat director, Peter Wise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wise told KQED that no research was done on Foley prior to the retreat, “because of his reputation as (a) well-respected teacher and presenter.” Wise wrote in an email that, “the understanding here was that Fr. Foley was in good standing and able to work in this diocese.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To date, the Oakland diocese is “not aware of any children or vulnerable adults being harmed in any way by Father Foley,” Bishop Barber wrote in his letter to St. Isidore parishioners. This was confirmed to KQED more recently by the Oakland diocese spokeswoman Helen Osman. However, Osman said it would be a “reasonable assumption” that children had been around Foley while he was officiating in the parish. The diocese has hired an outside firm to conduct the investigation, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Barber urged anyone with allegations or information about sexual misconduct involving Foley to contact police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Eckery, spokesman for the San Diego diocese, confirmed that Foley remains attached to the diocese there, and is technically still a priest. But, he said the San Diego diocese removed Foley’s “faculties” in 2015, stripping him of the authority to work as a priest, to conduct mass, or to perform other sacraments. In addition, Foley is not supposed to wear a priest’s collar or refer to himself as “Father Foley.” While Foley has not been laicized, or “defrocked,” Eckery said that could not be ruled out in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent email and text correspondence, Foley told KQED the allegations are “false” and said he has not ministered to children since 1995.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
