For a month, KABC in Los Angeles had focused an unrelenting attack against their school - Academia Semillas del Pueblo.

A vicious campaign of calumny by Leslie Radford
LOS ANGELES, June 3, 2006 -- Making multiple false claims to the public about his past and committing perjury in 2001 about his qualification on an application for his present job may just be the tip of a huge iceberg for the LAPD-endorsed Delgadillo.
