- Share via
Organizers of an effort to recall a West Covina school board member have found out the hard way that the adage “Like father, like son” does not always hold true.
Members of the pro-recall group were told by the county registrar-recorder’s office that they had taken out a recall petition against the wrong man. The name on the petition was not that of school board member William J. Brutocao, but his father, Angelo J. Brutocao.
“It was really embarrassing,” said Arleen Castille, one of the recall organizers.
Despite the setback, the recall effort will go ahead, Castille said. This time with the right name.
