I stopped by to fill out a request form the obtain supporting documents used to file my SSN when I was born but the woman had no idea what I was talking about.

I told her to let me speak with someone who may know and she told me she would. One hour later I'm still waiting in the lobby and this person never showed up to help. Consider this office a last resort, and if it is your last resort I'm sorry.

I was getting geared up to take a photo of myself in camo to send to Marshal, one of my hunting buds to illustrate my excitement, when I heard a helicopter circling near my house. I went outside to see, and realized it was circling our house!!!!! I then started to move to the front of the house as I was hearing sirens coming. 12 cop cars at least pulled up and now I am in my garage to see wtf is going on. Over a mega phone, the say my name and "come out with your hands up we want to talk to you!" I am in shock as I haven't done anything, have no F'n idea what this is about, and start to get paranoid. I barricade my position and open a window to talk back to them. But all they keep saying is the same damn thing, over and over and over for 3 hours!!!!! I'm not kidding. So I started to f with them.... Well, in the end I gave up, was 5150ed and found out that my sister, who lives on the property, and has been institutionalized 16 times for her craziness had told the cops that I was going to scalp our neighbors!!!!!!!! Can you fucking believe that those dumb asses believed her and a caretaker that she pays!!!! I have never been in a mental health facility in my entire life until that shit show! The silver lining, is that I got to check off "police stand off" on my bucket list, and got to check off a first hand account of our mental health system. Which ain't bad. I made some friends as well. The only other issue was, I had no cell phone or reading glasses so I was completely isolated during my stay. For some damn reason the facility couldn't wrap their minds around the fact that a 57 year old male needs glasses to f'n read. Sean Casey

And somewhere they know I am the conservator because I always receive two packets of the 100 pages of crap to renew. However whenever I try to call for the 'mediCal eligibility' to renew I get "Oh we don't have any authorization on file to let us talk to you about his file." A worker called yesterday telling me I would receive an eliglibity call today at 9:30am. No call. So I called the country. The person answering say 'we don't see any authorization for you to talk to us about his case but I will transfer you to an eligiblity worker". I was transfered to waiting music for about 15 minutes. Finally a human answered and when I gave the case number, the last four of his SSN, and our address, she said "we don't have any paperwork on file here allowing us to talk to you." I hung up in disgust and called my son's doctor. The doctor (just like last year) said he would call these people and help me!

I called in to request duplicate paperwork and left the phone on speaker to run errands while waiting in the hold queue. Two...hours...later...a friendly voice greeted me and was very helpful and thorough with answering questions. While setting an SSA appointment the rep discovered an error and determined the root cause. Since their system had my phone and email info, I received reminders and information including an advance check-in weblink for when we arrived. I followed the link instructions and promptly received my ticket number before we got out of the car. There were a couple of people inside the lobby among the rows of seats towards the right when entering. The information TV screens and kiosk were to the left. Office SSA reps worked behind glass and each space provided two chairs with partitions separating customers for semi-privacy. We spent less than 5 minutes in the lobby after checking in online from the parking lot. Our SSA rep was friendly and helpful, answering questions and providing reasonable expectations of next steps after concluding the appointment in roughly 30 minutes to resolve why we needed to stop by in person. If you have an online account. I'd highly recommend taking that route, but if you must go the SSA office, be ready to endure the steps for making an appointment and be prepared with all necessary documents.

What was even more outstanding was their excessive entourage! A SWAT team, Emergency Negotiation Unit, 40 cops, 20 units, 2 flash bangs, AND 2 ambulances, just in case, which fortunately weren't utilized. A very aggressive, effective, expedient, and peaceful apprehension! Without going into the gory details and deep disappointment of all my LEOs lies, falsified reports and overall betrayal regarding my $6 million home heist, (deemed a 'civil matter'), wherein I, a disabled, innocent, law-abiding senior citizen and legal owner, am repeatedly framed, falsely arrested, gangstalked and maliciously prosecuted, as all run cover for the complicit criminals who stole it are also stalking me. The OCSD admittedly destroyed and forensically proved tampered with evidence, and has withheld more. I truly wish I had purchased my home in San Diego County and not Orange, I'd still have it! P.S. This is my first positive review of any Law Enforcement agency for all the above reasons, and MANY more I can't enumerate, including a 3rd pending lockout by the OCSD, plotted by HBPD, and my 18-month LIAR Airbnb host who wrote a letter about how amazingly reliable I am. He then lied that I committed battery to block my account, so I can't book an airbnb! He, his wife, and the predator suddenly began harassing, blocking me from my food, and barging into my room. My hosts were jumping into my bed, and all their terrorizations forced me to change my locks. Phelps, I cried to my assaults, falsely arrested ME, as my hosts lied about the SAME assault upon asking them to exit my room. After I was admitttedly viciously assaulted, and nearly raped, Phelps never arrested my assailant when eviction judge AND host both stated he assaulted me. I still bear a scar 4 months later, and was never charged with the battery lie. Who'd believe at 67, 2 IDENTICAL batteries on 2 people in the same home in 2 days, yet only I bear a scar? A false arrest to expedite a false eviction, as I was paying. I never alleged a battery or received one in my life until 1/9/25. All these and more heinous horrors, as a lifelong, homeowning entrepreneur, being chased place to place for 6 years, enduring break-ins, as my unpermitted demolished home remains a severe, vacant fire hazard. My cars are chronically vandalized, three bank accounts hacked, (one to closure). I was drugged at a diner/bar, fainted all night, sustaining a severe brain, hip, and knee injury as well. None of these violent events ever occurred in my life until I reported to the OCSD my real estate/mortgage fraud, elder abuse, and criminal admitted stalking with PIs. I only received denigrating, mocking, insulting falsified reports. Then, the chronic aerial and ground stalking began 24/7 nationwide since 11/21 Upon viewing America's Finest's exemplary police work, I felt compelled to give them the credit that's due and wish they were my law enforcement! I'd love to see the same display at my property located at 2 Calle Ameno, San Clemente, and a couple of flash bangs at a few unscrupulous OC LE agencies!'
