Woman pleads no contest to embezzling thousands from Delano Philippine Weekend Committee
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — A 67-year-old woman has pleaded no contest to embezzling thousands of dollars from the Delano Philippine Weekend Committee to buy gifts for men she met online, according to court records. Delilah Mascarinas on Tuesday pleaded no contest to both felony counts filed against her — embezzlement by a public officer and check fraud. She was charged in 2023. Prosecutors say she faces up to three years and eight months in prison, but the court-indicated sentence is felony probation with restitution. Sentencing is set for Aug. 6 at the Delano courthouse. After starting an Instagram account in 2022, Mascarinas engaged in conversations with numerous men who claimed to be in the military, and received eight marriage proposals, according to her statement contained in Delano police reports. Mascarinas told police the men asked for gift cards to pay for internet, games and music. She said she bought the cards through an account that was designated for use by the Delano Philippine Weekend Committee, which annually organizes a two-day event celebrating Filipino culture. She said she meant to pay the money back. 'And it just spiraled out of control,' she told police. 'And when I wasn't able to pay it back then that's when everything happened.' An investigation determined around $20,000 was missing. Mascarinas had access to the committee's account for years but said she didn't use it for personal expenses until 2022.

On-duty cop offers woman ride home, then sexually abuses her, CA officials say
A deputy accused of committing a string of sex crimes while on duty has been convicted, California prosecutors say. A jury found Michael Clark, 36, guilty of a slew of charges, including two counts of sexual battery, two counts of stalking, three counts of assault under color of authority and one count of false imprisonment, the Kern County District Attorney's Office said in a June 4 news release. 'A sworn deputy who made a promise to protect the people of Kern County instead abused that trust and used his position of power to exploit multiple victims,' District Attorney Cynthia Zimmer said in the release. Clark's conviction stems from encounters with multiple women when he was 'acting in an official capacity as a deputy' with the Kern County Sheriff's Office, prosecutors said. The sheriff's office did not immediately respond to McClatchy News' request for comment on June 6. In an October 2019 Facebook post announcing Clark's arrest, deputies said he began working with the sheriff's office in April 2017 and had worked there for two and a half years, mostly recently having worked at the Rosamond Substation. Woman 'inappropriately' touched in search Clark was called to an Oildale home on Feb. 14, 2019 and spoke with a woman who gave a fake last name, prosecutors said. She was arrested, according to prosecutors. During a search, Clark is accused of 'inappropriately' touching the woman, grabbing her 'genital area and her breasts,' prosecutors said. Deputy 'continually' propositions woman About a month later, Clark responded to a Rosamond home to 'take an identity theft report,' prosecutors said. While he was inside the home, Clark asked a woman 'sexually charged questions,' prosecutors said. He returned to the home on multiple occasions and also sent her 'sexually explicit text messages,' prosecutors said. Despite her pleading with him to stop, 'he continually propositioned the woman,' prosecutors said. Clark's actions led the woman to block his phone number and to move out of Rosamond, prosecutors said. GPS data from his patrol vehicle showed he 'visited or drove by the woman's residence over 20 times in a two-month period,' prosecutors said. Deputy gropes grocery store worker during ride home In August 2019, Clark responded to a Rosamond grocery store parking lot about a fight, prosecutors said. Afterward, he visited the store and came across a female worker, prosecutors said. Clark later noticed the same woman as she was walking home after her shift and offered her a ride home, prosecutors said. The woman said she agreed to the ride 'because he was a cop,' according to prosecutors. As he drove the short distance to her home, 'Clark asked her if she wanted to exchange social media accounts to 'sext'' and also 'asked her to 'make out,'' prosecutors said. Upon arriving at her home, Clark 'leaned over to the passenger side and began kissing her,' prosecutors said. 'He then began grabbing her breasts and genital area,' prosecutors said. When the woman opened the car door in an attempt to escape, he grabbed her and didn't let her leave, prosecutors said. 'He then exposed his genitals and forced her hand onto it,' prosecutors said. Clark let the woman leave after she gave him her contact information, according to prosecutors. In the days that followed, the woman said Clark 'began messaging her on social media asking if she would meet with him,' deputies said in a Facebook post. She said Clark continued to frequent her work while he was on duty, asking if 'she wanted to hang out and/or go out for drinks,' deputies said. Woman wakes to find deputy beside her Clark is also accused of harassing multiple workers at a gas station near the sheriff's main station over 'the course of several months,' prosecutors said. He is accused of writing 'lewd comments on receipts' and asking the women on dates, prosecutors said. One worker told investigators 'Clark reached across a gate, touched her buttocks, and walked away laughing,' prosecutors said. Another woman, who reported multiple incidents with Clark, said he once 'entered an area off limits to the public,' prosecutors said. The woman said she was napping and woke to find Clark lying beside her 'eye to eye,' and he told her 'he just wanted 'to cuddle,'' prosecutors said. On another occasion, the woman said she was leaving her car in the parking lot when 'Clark pulled in behind her in his patrol vehicle and activated his overhead lights,' prosecutors said. He 'asked her if she 'wanted to make out,'' then gave 'her his department issued Taser,' prosecutors said. 'Clark's behavior will not be tolerated and he must be held accountable for the harm he has inflicted,' Zimmer said. Clark is scheduled to appear in court for sentencing on July 16 and faces up to eight years and four months in prison, as well as be required to register as a sex offender, prosecutors said. Rosamond is about an 80-mile drive north from Los Angeles.

Woman pleads not guilty to using bear spray, leading police on chase
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — A woman accused of using bear spray at a business on Union Avenue then leading police on a high-speed chase was arraigned Thursday on multiple charges.
