A man in Monterey, California died recently in quite bizarre circumstances. On Mar. 28, just past midnight, Monterey police were sent to the 600 block of Cannery Row to break up a fight between two people. One of them managed to run away from the scene, only to be found dead the next morning on a rocky beach overlooking the Plaza Hotel.
California has been on an unfortunate run of headlines. There was a man who recently broke into a woman’s house after weeks of stalking her, only to suck her toes. In another city in the state, a woman was found to have killed and buried her ex-boyfriend in her backyard. The state has been having a tough stretch, and it’s understandable why officials would want to tighten security — especially before the administration decides to pick another fight with them. But the administration is probably too busy focusing on the Middle East now, so at the very least, the Golden State can focus on improving everyday issues without having to look over its shoulder.
