I’ve had a lot of people talk to me about immediate past Sheriff Bob Doyle, good and bad. However, pretty much everyone now regardless of how they felt back in 2007 when Doyle left office for the Parole Board wishes he had never left as Sheriff. Most all Stan Sniff supporters that I am aware of today have a clear personal financial nexus for their support of him. (Promotions, At Will Jobs, County Contracts, etc)
In order to fully understand what happened in the years of 2005-2007, you have to understand that the local media only reported part of the story. I know this is shocking, given that most are silent about the myriad scandals of Stan Sniff because either their editors are buddies with the corrupt Sheriff or they are scared of him.
When Bob Doyle left as sheriff, there were 1.5 Deputies per 1,000 Riverside County Residents, today that number is something like .75. Let that sink in. Sniff has spent 11 years trying to re-package lousy dates as top quality dates by blaming everyone else for his failure.
First off, it is common knowledge that Stan Sniff practically required a loyalty oath from anyone that got a second floor job. In 2007, this requirement also included being required to trash the reputation of Sheriff Doyle to anyone that would listen. This severely limited the list of eligible people and almost guaranteed that the people that did make senior management were not the best choices available.
Sniff, as you see wanted everyone to believe what a victim and martyr he was.
The former Traffic Cop, war-dodging weekend warrior wanted people to believe what a hero he was for riding in and saving the department from Bob Doyle. While living in a fantasy world dressing in costumes, while making deputies wear uniforms stuck in the 1970’s the Malignant Narcissist began to achieve full bloom.
Recently, former Supervisor Jeff Stone made some public and critical comments of Stan Sniff. Now State Senator Jeff Stone was retaliated against almost immediately (the details of which I am not at liberty to share) by Sniff and crew.
This is pretty amazing as then Supervisor Jeff Stone was almost single-handedly responsible for Sniff’s appointment as Sheriff. Similar to how top Sniff lackeys are discarded at the sign of the first disagreement, what happened to Lenny Purvis and Jeff Stone (in terms of instant retaliation despite years of alliance with Sniff) are strikingly similar. This is consistent with the pattern of a malignant narcissist.
Enter former RSA (think Union) President Pat McNamara. He tried to jam down an endorsement of Stan Sniff against Bob Doyle and was also investigated by the local US Attorney for campaign finance issues. I’ve received a ton of information about McNamara’s corruption, but suffice to say Sniff stuffed the PERS in to McNamara almost as immediately as he personally walked Chief Deputy Randy Throne out of his office.
In the time period around the 2006 re-election of Bob Doyle, Jeff Stone, Pat McNamara and Stan Sniff took a trip to Arizona together. The subject of overthrowing Bob Doyle was one of the top
In addition, Stan Sniff was reporting the contents of Second Floor meetings to Pat McNamara in real time.
In addition, Sniff was taking meetings with and for Jeff Stone for various stakeholders and political items.
It was clear that Sniff was gearing up to run for Sheriff and was trying to undermine Bob Doyle. (Weather or not Doyle deserved it is irrelevant, this is unprofessional and unethical behavior). The public cover story told for why Bob Doyle fired Stan Sniff is political – but the rest of the story as never told in any of the local media follows:
Beyond leaking in real time the contents of Second Floor meetings to Doyle’s Political Enemies – Sniff refused to comply with a direct order related to grant funded officers in the jail and a second direct order related to the issuance of tasers. Stan Sniff was terminated for insubordination.
When Chief Randy Throne came to tell Stan Sniff he was being terminated from his At Will Employment, beyond Sniff proclaiming he’d return as Sheriff one day, he was also reputed to have said, “I can’t believe he did it this quick” referring to being terminated for insubordination. Sniff would retaliate against Throne almost immediately after being appointed less than a year later.
Stan Sniff had two votes for appointment, Marion Ashley and Jeff Stone. The third vote came when John Taviglione is reputed to have blown his stack regarding his son failing aviation training. Stan Sniff once again interfered with the lines of communication and when Taviglione confronted Bob Doyle related to his son, Doyle had no knowledge that the son had failed his training as Sniff had kept him and his assistant Sheriff in the dark.
Sniff’s deceit had succeeded.
In deference to Stone, Taviglione and Ashley – it is clear that all three are no longer huge fans of the Sheriff. But the story from 2006-2007 is what it is and hindsight is 20/20.
The string of events that led to Sniff’s appointment are not unusual for political maneuvering… but Stan’s part in them should have informed everyone with knowledge what kind of Sheriff he would be.

Sounds like episode of Real Housewives of Riverside County Sheriff. That’s why I’ve always advocated we need a seasoned, mentally secure, candidate from an outside, respected, agency. It seems as if RSD is always in this civil war mood and it’s demoralizing. I recommend psychological/drug and alcohol testing for the sheriff once a year based on Sniff’s destruction of the dept. This couldn’t have been done by a sane and sober individual. I don’t think we will ever see a candidate as described above because noone wants to come to RSD and immediately have that unethical/corrupt stink that’s staining the walls on the 2nd floor put on them. To all the integrity-less scumbags who did S/Sniff’s dirty work, go home and teach your children not to ever be like you. The agency will never ever be respected until you weak losers refuse to do the devil’s work. Everyone knows who you are so when you walk in a room that scumbag cloud is visible to all. Bianco has my vote
Once again this piece of shit Stanley is exposed for what he is. With everything that you (ROD) have uncovered about Stanley and his corrupt second-floor minions. This piece of shit refuses to step down or go away.
I’ve been told by close sources on the second floor that Stanley is going nuts and is trying to get every possible endorsements but people with common sense and see what is going on with this piece of shit are refusing to give him endorsements. So he’s turning to
“Has-Beens”
If you notice all his endorsements are past “Has-Beens” with a lot of baggage.
Stanley has no shame he has already milked his supporters out of of a lot of money to get a low percentage in the primary. Look in the mirror you piece of shit time for you to go.
Stanley must go !!!
The leasor of two evils is still evil, but Bobby Doyle would have been better than Stan Sniff and his malfunctioning tools on the second floor. Although what I don’t get is Greg Negron. He was the personal driver for Bobby Doyle during his election campaign, would rent a luxury car (at his expense), drive him around and pay for Bobby Doyle’s meals, and Negron goes from Deputy to Lieutenant in 5 years from the time he starts as Doyle’s chauffeur. Negron even had a picture of him and Bobby Doyle in his office for all the deputies to see (which is a slap in the face to Sniff and the second floor), and supported Frank Robles’ campaign against Sniff (another slap in the face to Sniff and his executive staff). Yet for some reason Negron still gets promoted to Captain. Was there a change of heart from Sniff, a kindler, gentler, forgiving man. Or did Greg decide to change camps and swear an oath of loyalty to Sniff like the rest of the cowards, and selling his integrity in exchange for an undeserved promotion. Or a third option was that he sued the county (like Christian Dekker, but in this case Negron was given Captain). Mo. Val. is thankful we did not get Negron (we already have enough misfit toys as it is in charge.)
Stan Sniff is so desperate to stay in power that the second floor will accept the likes of Greg “Master Splinter” Negron into their ranks as long as they can keep their positions in the organization. And promoting these marginal employees that allege their loyalty to the executive staff in order to gain votes has resulted in the destruction of moral within the Department. Stan Sniff, and his loyal boot lickers that staff the second floor will be remembered as the most unethical organization to have ever been assembled. Stan Sniff is in panic mode right now (similar to a Ray Wood-Kent Werges pattern of behavior) and is willing to accept support from the devil himself to save his campaign. But the devil is worrying that Sniff will take over if he gives his support.
I just got off the phone with an elected official and yup… He ” BEGGED” him for his endorsement. He’s for sure begging for endorsements.
Calling around for endorsements Stanley is not going to help you, people are sick and tired of you they want you gone. As for the people who have endorsed you, they are people that you have done stuff for behind the scenes covering up their dirty deeds.
Based on the way you look you must not be getting a lot of sleep or eating well. You should try to stay off that Facebook, staying up all night trolling through Facebook trying to find out who your enemies are is not very healthy for you dumb shit.
You have to realize Stanley that even within your circle on the second floor there’s people that don’t like you and voted for Chad.
I’m just wondering how much stuff is Chad going to find when he takes office. opening up those drawers finding all kinds of skeletons. You might want to start now like your buddy Pat McNamara did and start shredding stuff.
PS: For someone that needs friends rumor has it that you were little cock sucker at the Debbie Chisholm event except for fondling Becky Young
“stanley sniff must go”
