Thank you for your note to me. I value your input. Please know that it is premature for my office to
make any determination on the case that is currently being investigated by the San Luis Obispo
Police Department and the arrest of Ms. Tianna Arata. Once the Police Department has concluded
their investigation, they will likely refer the entire case to my office for review. Only at that time will
my office be able to conduct our independent evaluation of the evidence and make a factual
determination of whether it is appropriate to bring criminal charges in Court.
It would be inappropriate and counterproductive for this office to provide an opinion at this time
based on social media posts or media reports that may or may not be borne out by the evidence
facts) gathered in the pending investigation. Again, thank you for reaching out to express your
concerns in a cordial fashion.
Sincerely yours,
Dan
