SANTA CRUZ — A man who shot at California Highway Patrol officers in a residential Scotts Valley neighborhood while fleeing police last year is facing a 20-year prison term after accepting a plea deal Wednesday.Kristopher Payopay, 42, of Lathrop, appeared before Santa Cruz County Superior Court Judge Nancy de la Peña to plead no contest to charges that are expected to result in a 20-year prison term. Per terms of the deal struck with the Santa Cruz County District Attorney’s Office, seven felony charges, including two counts of attempted murder, were dropped. Payopay pleaded to two felony counts of assault on a peace officer and one count of evading a peace officer, plus a special allegation for discharging a semiautomatic rifle — a charge that alone will carry a 10-year term, authorities said Wednesday.“We wanted to come to a resolution which, in our mind, both recognized the incredible danger that our two young Highway Patrol officers were placed in when they were simply doing the...Rainbow flag at California Buddhist Temple burned

Monica Cuellar, spokeswoman for Pasadena police.

Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance) seeks to tackle the statewide teacher and school staff shortage by increasing their salaries by 50% in the next seven years.Muratsuchi, who chairs the Assembly Education Committee, introduced Assembly Bill 938 on Wednesday, April 26. The bill would set annual targets for the state’s Local Control Funding Formula – which determines how much money is allocated to districts and charter schools – with a goal of reaching a 50% increase by 2030.“Schools across the state are facing a workforce shortage, with many teachers and school employees unable to afford to live in the communities they work in,” said Muratsuchi in a press conference on Wednesday. “I introduced AB 938 … to not only pay them what they deserve, but also to get more young people to aspire to become educators.”The bill comes with a strong recommendation — but not a requirement — that school districts spend this additional state funding on salaries.“It is intentionally drafted as ‘i...Henry Winkler advises find a passion and stick with it, no matter the stage of life
