Bad news
A local radio news anchor and reporter has been arrested on charges that he engaged in "substantial sexual conduct" with a minor, beginning three years ago when the girl in question was only 12 years old.
Ron Kirk Kuhlmeyer, who broadcast for Santa Rosa's top-rated station KZST and sixth-ranked KJZY under the name Ron Kirk, resigned his position following his arrest.
Apparently, the police were notified of the alleged crimes by what's known in California legalese as a "mandated reporter" a person, usually a health care provider or school teacher, who is required by law to report evidence of child sexual abuse.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: There must be something in our water supply that brings this garbage out in people.
I think I'll stick to the bottled kind.

3 insisted on sticking two cents in:
I had the displeasure of working with Ron Kirk when he was in-house at 1350 KSRO a few years back. He always gave off this sleazy, old school car salesman persona. He liked to tell tasteless jokes and always seemed angry about something. He was also quite unpopular because he wasn't a big fan of good hygiene.
When the information was released on Thursday, no one here was surprised.
I'm surprised he didn't show up on "To Catch a Predator."
Sonoma County needs to start finding positive individuals and events to clean up Sonoma County's image before it's too late.
I believe that is the best description of this hideous excuse for a human being that I have heard.
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
