No Criminal Charges Seen in Arrests at Elite Party
- Share via
Prosecutors said Friday they do not expect to file criminal charges in connection with a South Pasadena party last month at which the sons of several community leaders were arrested for allegedly disturbing the peace and resisting an officer.
Deputy Dist. Atty. James R. Simpson said a final decision will be made Monday, but there appeared to be insufficient evidence against John Bernardi Jr., 22, son of the city manager; Bryan Lee Prentiss, 22, son of the former mayor; Thomas D. Ramos, 20, son of the former Chamber of Commerce president, and Scott D. Josephson, 21.
Since the Sept. 14 party, Bernardi Jr. has complained of police misconduct and the City Council has hired a private investigator to look into the matter.
