  1. Manuel Norriega lives in Canyon Country?
    I thought he was in a French prison.

    • Noriega (senior) died in a Panama prison in 2017 from a brain tumor, after completing US and French prison terms. As to the possibility of a junior in CC, I don’t know.

  2. One would think this primitive creature would be happy living in a brand new house with a great peaceful view!!

  3. Pineapple face was cremated with a photo of Putin and Newsom a few years back….

About Louie Diaz

Louie was born and raised in Santa Clarita. At the age of two Louie lost his vision due to a brain tumor. However, Louie doesn't let blindness stop him from doing what ever it is he wants to accomplish. Growing up some of his favorite hobbies were wood working, fishing and riding bikes. Louie graduated from College of the Canyon in December of 2017, with a Broadcast Journalism degree. Growing up Louie has always wanted to be a fire fighter or a police officer, but because of his blindness Louie knew that wouldn't work. Louie has always loved listening to police and fire radio traffic, using a scanner, and he figured if he was going to listen to the scanner so much, he should do something with it.
