Day Around the Bay: $10K Treasure Finally Found, and It Was Really Hard
A $1 million refund is being issued to Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings from a committee supporting Matt Mahan for governor of California, with uncertainty about whether Hastings requested it or the committee returned it voluntarily. A jury in Solano County convicted Vallejo dog breeder Susan Anthony of animal cruelty involving American dingos or Carolina dogs that roam in packs, kill each other’s offspring, and sometimes escape to kill livestock. A $10,000 treasure hunt ended with the treasure buried in a barely accessible sea cave near Black Sands Beach in the Marin Headlands. A pilot program at SFO uses facial recognition cameras to identify international travelers before they reach Customs and Border Protection officers. Republicans also face internal conflict over funding for July 6 rioters, while House Republicans canceled a vote on a Democrat-backed Iran war measure. The Commission of Fine Arts approved a Trump arch with required changes, and Stephen Colbert’s swan song includes remarks from Jon Stewart that losing a late-night show is “the best.”
"Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings is getting a refund of $1 million from a committee supporting Matt Mahan for governor of California. It's not clear whether Hastings asked for the refund five days after making the May 15 donation given that Mahan has an almost-zero shot of making it through the primary or if it was returned by the committee voluntarily.
