Worthy foe for Aguirre sitting on the bench

Holy ferrets!

Confidants of Judge Jan Goldsmith are swearing he is a candidate for San Diego city attorney. The formal announcement will come in a week or two when Goldsmith begins a leave of absence. Until then, the judge is on ice, even to a recovering editorial writer who typed a ringing endorsement for Goldsmith's maiden council race in 1988.

To be sure, other candidates are running against Michael Aguirre. Attorney and columnist Dan Coffey, for example, and Deputy District Attorney Bill Gentry. Both worthy, I'm sure.

But trust me. Goldsmith's résumé is high on the carat count. It glitters.

They are furry and friendly but ferrets are very illegal in California.

One group of dedicated ferret lovers is working to change that, NBC11's Mike Luery reported Monday.

California and Hawaii are the only two states in the nation that have banned ferrets as pets, Luery said.

The State Fish and Game Commission views the animals as "prohibited wild animals."

Members of the group Ferrets Anonymous are working to get a measure on the state ballot that would reverse the cuddly creatures legal fate.

(CBS13) SACRAMENTO California is one of two states where you cannot own, buy or sell a ferret. And each year Californians try to change the law.

This year, as CBS13's Dennis Shanahan reports, there is a new 'famous' face fighting for ferrets. His name is 'Leatherface'. He's an actor, wrestler, and producer living in Sacramento.

And now he's bringing national notoriety to the plight of the ferret here in California.

"They're very calm. They're playful," Leatherface explained to CBS13, "They're very loving."

The Sacramento man gently holding these furry ferrets is familiar to viewers of the MTV hit show "Viva la Bam" as a black-mask wearing wrestler named 'Leatherface." A character who is anything but loving and gentle.

Derry –A local man faces an animal-cruelty charge after police say he kept a ferret in his custody hoping for reward money and wound up tossing it out an apartment building window, according to court documents.

Two witnesses told police they saw Wilton "Rusty" French, 44, who is described as homeless and living in Derry, throw the white ferret out of a third-story bedroom window at 15 W. Broadway, according to court papers.

Police found the ferret lying dead on West Broadway on the night of June 30 after responding to a report of a domestic disturbance, police said. The ferret had apparently been run over, but police believe it died from the fall.
