If you search Leewood Court in the Patch search window, you will see an inordinate number of articles about crime centering in this little known cul-de-sac in Los Gatos. Drugs, underage parties, burglary, auto theft. What is going on over there?

Humm ... time to do some digging and ask Sgt. Harris. Stay tuned for folo. Thanks for the tip, Ed!

LOL, Judy, they're supposed to be mushrooms, but you're right, they look like condoms!

Interesting, as these are fairly new homes (1997) and not cheap-$1,590,000+/-. Wonder if people bought these and are now renting them out?

Mushrooms... whoever designed that was on them :-) Or had something completely different on their mind.
Larry Arzie November 16, 2012 at 11:35 pm
Those are not mushrooms. Chaqueta's see.

I think the worst part of this is the stolen identity.....That's so very hard on the victim.

I would rather not put out any of the names of the victims or the alleged rapist just in case he isRead More acquitted. I would suggest you follow up with LGPD and LGHS officials for any further information.

I just emailed Sgt. Stephen Walpole, but he's on vacation until June 20. I last reported on a rapeRead More at the Los Gatos Lodge in March, but Sgt. Harris back then said the department's records unit need time to research just how many of these sex crimes had been reported to police. I'll check with the district.
