A reader here sent in the following. Apparently, it made the evening news here in Los Angeles last night on almost all the channels. Dean May, was arrested for burglary and has had a high bail amount set.
Dean May, has a long history with the church. A graduate of the "world-class" Imperial Schools here in Pasadena, known as the "Jr. West Point" by many employees and members. He was good buddies with the circle of men who surrounded Joe Tkach Sr. as he rose to power in the mid-1980s. May was ordained as a minister in the Worldwide Church of God and served as the head of Transportation Department here in Pasadena. He also traveled on many of Joe Tkach Sr's trips.
Dean May left WCG when United Church of God formed and was a minister for them where he served in Oregon. He later moved back to Southern CA to the City of LaVerne.
When Dean May worked here in Pasadena he was known as a condescending little prick who had quick temper and would run off at the mouth, asserting his authority. After he had been kicked out of WCG, he mouthed off to someone here in the area and they beat the crap out of him.
The fact he was arrested on burglary charges was not a real shocker. He was known for stealing things while he was employed in Pasadena, but the administration covered up for him.
LA VERNE, Calif. (KABC) -- An apartment building manager was caught on video appearing to case a tenant's home, and he's suspected of stealing several expensive items, including her grandfather's Rolex.
Video of the alleged burglary inside Suzy Wrate's La Verne apartment was caught on hidden camera, with the incident lasting about 30 minutes.
She installed the camera after several pieces of jewelry and the high-priced watch went missing, suspecting the apartment manager of being behind it.
Her suspicions were confirmed when she saw 69-year-old Dean May walking around her home.
"I saw our apartment manager coming in our front door, putting on a flashlight, going through various things in my home. He then disappeared into the bedrooms for about 10 minutes," Wrate said. "Everybody in the complex has had packages stolen, and sharing with neighbors, it has become pretty obvious that he was the one responsible."
May was arrested the next day for felony burglary.
Wrate said May and his wife ran the La Verne Woods Apartments for several years. May's wife was not arrested, but she was terminated by the property's owner.
"Personally, I find it hard to believe that she didn't know something," Wrate said.
News of the arrest came as a shock to tenants.
"We thought he was honest. We thought he would go around making sure everything was OK," resident Denise Reyes said.
But, like her neighbors, several items have gone missing from her home and porch.
Wrate and her husband helped some tenants recover some of their stolen goods from the dumpsters.
