Sacramento Ca Suits

Two Sacramento police officers who led the investigation of the deaths of seven people buried in a boardinghouse yard are suing their bosses for transferring them to other jobs. Lt. Joe Enloe and Sgt. James L. Jorgensen allege that their reassignments were punitive and illegal, although their superiors maintain that the transfers were routine. "These transfers were precipitous, unwise and unfair," said Blake Koller, president of the Sacramento Police Officers Assn.

Each day, shortly before noon, 1,000 homeless people gather at the Loaves & Fishes dining hall in downtown Sacramento, where they receive a free meal and warm smiles from volunteers who call them "guests." Feeding the hungry is work that usually inspires admiration. But this privately funded charity--which also offers showers, a school for homeless children and even veterinary aid for homeless people's pets--stands accused of countless sins by a host of irate enemies.

Operation Rescue announced that it has filed a $1.98-million claim against city officials in Sacramento for damages suffered by 33 anti-abortion demonstrators who were sprayed with Mace by police during a July protest. "We want to send a message to the police departments, and to the city and county authorities of this state, that they will be held accountable for all abuses of peaceful, pro-life demonstrators," said Operation Rescue lawyer Cyrus Zal. Sacramento County Dist. Atty.

In a decision hailed by advocates for the handicapped, a federal judge ruled that a 9-year-old mentally disabled girl should be allowed to attend a regular public classroom.
