from the
Chief...

On behalf of the Executive Management (EM) Team,

our Strategic Support Division / PIO, and our Digital
Communications Specialist, we are pleased to share our
Fall 2018 Probation Quarterly Newsletter. As we enter
the holiday season, I hope everyone is able to spend time
with family and friends, which is important to maintain
work-life balance. Our varied responsibilities within the
department can be very demanding and keeping our
work-life balance is key to our desired successes. The
goal of work-life balance is to remove our stress so that
we focus on prioritizing on those activities that make us
happy. What is your definition of work-life balance?

EM has completed most of the yearly site visits to all of
our regional offices and juvenile facilities. It has been
great seeing staff at the EM visits, sharing department
highlights as well as getting caught up with the many
activities all of you are involved in. We just celebrated
our annual Chief’s Awards and for the first time in many
years, we were able to have a “Probation Family Fun
Day” over the summer.

Once again, we are very proud of all the featured
articles, as well as the many accomplishments our staff
have achieved over this past quarter. In this edition of
the Probation Quarterly Newsletter, you will see stories
highlighting our recent staff promotions, our Juvenile
Correctional Officer graduation, stories of staff in
specific operational areas within the department, our
summer Family Fun Day, and many other Department
activities.

As an Executive Team, we continue to move the
Department in the direction of operating as “One
Department”, with one mission and one vision, while
ensuring alignment with our department’s and the
County’s mission. Additionally, operating as “One
Department” assures that we serve the County of
Orange to the best of our abilities, in the most effective
and efficient manner, while achieving the desired
outcomes for the population we serve. The Executive
Team is very proud of all of the staff in the department
who continue to ensure that Orange County is a Safer
Place Through Positive Change!

Thank you everyone for all you do each and every day!

Carey DuranOC2P0r1ob8ation Quarterly Vol. 2 Iss. 2
Job Title: Deputy Probation Officer
Years with County: 34 years
Department: OC Probation
Best Part of Your Job: Getting to know clients and
understanding their situations

A movie she saw in college set Carey Duran down a

career path that would lead to helping many minors turn
their lives around after falling afoul with the law. The
name of the movie escapes her, but she has held onto the
inspiration the character of the probation officer gave her.

After graduating from UC Santa Barbara, she come to work
for the County as a Deputy Probation Counselor in Juvenile
Hall. Four years later, she became a Deputy Probation
Officer, a role she has held ever since. Her entire career
with the County has focused on helping juveniles. “I came
to work with the kids,” Carey says.

Her day-to-day involves supervising the cases of juveniles
who committed a felony offense and entered into the
Deferred Entry of Judgment program. If a client meets all
the program’s requirements for one year, the arrest for the
offense will be considered to never have occurred, with
court, probation, and law enforcement records sealed. The
requirements vary based on each minor’s case, but can
include community service, school attendance, counseling,
obeying curfew, reporting to her office, and attending anger
management classes.

Carey says many of the children grasp that this program is
an opportunity to better their lives. “Last week, a young man
brought in his diploma to say, ‘You encouraged me,’” she
says. For each client who returns with a diploma, she makes
a copy, ensuring their personal identifiable information is
blacked out, then puts it on a wall in her office. She’s proud
that the kids in her program have the opportunity to move
on into adulthood without a record. “They made, a mistake
but it’s not forever,” she says.
While most Probation Officers handle cases from

a specific city, Carey and fellow Deputy Probation
Officer Julia Millan cover the entire county, working
with clients from different socioeconomic levels.
They do home and school visits.
“They’re nice kids and fun to interact with,”
Carey says. “Going to their home and
engaging them in their environment lets
me learn a lot about them. I can better
understand their struggles and the
difficulties they face.”
At school, Carey picks up their grades and
attendance records, and sometimes checks
in on her clients.
When her friends ask why she hasn’t
retired yet, she says, “I’m still working
because I still like it. Yeah, there are
some stressful days, like any job, but
overall my work is super rewarding.”

FOOD SERVICE STAFF
Mik e Gom ez

After serving in the Coast Guard for eight years, Mike
was hired by the Probation Department in April 2012 as an
Institutional Cook and was quickly promoted to the position
of Senior Institutional Cook. He subsequently transferred to
the Orange County Sheriff’s Department Men’s Central Jail
in Santa Ana in 2013. He was responsible for supervising
inmate work details in preparing breakfast and lunch for
2,000 inmates.

In 2014, Mike left the Sheriff’s to accept a job with
the Union Pacific Railroad, as a federally licensed freight
conductor. Mike admits it was, “an amazing job, but with
a grueling schedule.” In 2017, he was expecting a baby
girl and wanted a more traditional schedule so he left the
railroad and was re-hired by Probation to be the Chief Cook
at Juvenile Hall. In March of 2018, he was promoted to
Food Service Manager. He is currently responsible for three
kitchens, two warehouses, laundry services, and a staff of 43.
Mike is constantly looking to improve the quality and variety
of food and still stay within budget.

When not working, he enjoys spending time with his
daughter, cooking, attending flea markets, watching
football, and riding his motorcycles.

His favorite holiday recipe is his Holiday Rum Cake.

worked at BJ’s Brew House, Wood Ranch BBQ, Grill at the Grove of

Hollywood, and the Foundation Room at the new House of Blues

in Anaheim.

Daniel always wanted to be cook, especially growing up in a

Latino household where there was always good food, especially

at holidays and celebrations. He was always at his grandmother’s

and mother’s side asking if he could help in any way. From doing

this, he got the idea of making something on his own and giving

it his own spin. His grandmother always let him use her house as

his test kitchen.

On his days off, Daniel enjoys trying out new recipes on

his smoker, playing a round of golf, listening to live music and

visiting Disneyland. He states that the music of Eddie Vedder and

Chris Cornell have “shaped the way I view the world, and I must say

it is definitely for the better.”

One of his special recipes is his Prime Rib Roast.

Prime Rib Roast

6 lbs. Rib eye Roast (bone-in), 6 sprigs of rosemary,
6 cloves garlic (minced), 2 tbsp Apple wood rub
5 tbsp Montreal steak seasoning, 3 tbsp salt, Olive oil (to coat roast)

L eonika Recites 2018 2018
Leonika has been a Senior Institutional Cook at Juvenile Hall for the last two years. Prior to joining the

Probation Department, she was a Line Cook for 2 years at the Pacific Wharf at Disney’s California Adventure

Park in Anaheim. She also worked as a Food Service Assistant I for the Anaheim Union High School District

for 3 years.

Leonika is currently working on finishing her degree at Cypress College. A graduate of University of

Baguio High School in the Philippines, she also took vocational courses in Commercial Cooking and Baking

and Pastry production at the Baguio City school of Arts and Trades.

Leonika wanted to be a cook because of, “The tangible joy of creating a dish full of flavor and textures of

the individual ingredients as they create something that satisfies the cook’s craft. That is a thing of beauty.”

She also believes that each individual dish made carries the” invisible signature” of the person who made

it and she finds doing this incredibly rewarding.

When not cooking she enjoys baking and travelling with family and friends. Leonika just came back from

a 2-month vacation to the Philippines.

One of her favorite recipes for the holidays, or any time, is a Carmalized Banana Upside-Down Cake.

Caramelized Banana Upside-down Cake
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed, 3 extra-large ripe bananas sliced in half horizontally and then

sliced in vertically, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, teaspoons baking powder, inch salt, optional and to taste

1 large egg, 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 1/3 cup sour cream , 3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

salted caramel sauce for drizzling, optional

Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9-inch springform cake pan with cooking spray; set aside. In a small, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter, about 1 minute on high. Pour the butter into
the cake pan, ensure it’s well-greased. Evenly sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter. Fan banana slices (cut side down) out from center of pan like the spokes of a wheel covering the
entire pan with banana slices. Use short pieces to fill in gaps. Add 8 to 10 short banana pieces around sides of pan (cut side down), spaced uniformly; set pan aside. In a large bowl, whisk
together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, optional salt; set aside. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the next 5 wet ingredients (through vanilla). Add the wet mixture to
the dry until just combined, don’t overmix. Gently turn batter out into prepared pan, being careful to not disturb the banana slices on the bottom or sides of pan. Fill pan to about 3/4-
full. Place pan on a cookie sheet as insurance to catch anything that may leak from springform pan and bake for about 38 to 40 minutes, or until center is set, not jiggly, lightly golden
browned, and springy to the touch. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Only go down about 1-inch with the toothpick,
not all the way to the bottom where you’ll hit gooey caramelized bananas. Place pan on a wire rack and allow cake to cool for at least 1 hour before inverting, slicing, and serving.
Optionally before serving, drizzle with salted caramel sauce. Cake will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Waleed Althaqeb
Waleed is one of the newer employees, having joined the Probation Department two months ago. He is proud to say

that he ,“is happy at his career” having a, “strong team to back me up and an awesome working environment.” Waleed

works as a Senior Institutional Cook at Joplin.

He started his career as a baker in 1992 working with some great pastry chefs. After the birth of his son in 2009,

he decided it was time for a new challenge so he, “started (my) culinary adventure. “ He has worked in restaurants,

hospitality and cooking for senior citizens. Prior to joining the Probation Department, he was the Sous-Chef at the

Fountain Valley Regional Hospital for eight years. He continues to work there on his days off as a consulting chef.

Waleed’s biggest joy is to spend time with his family. His son and daughter are the “joy and light” of his and his wife’s

life. The greatest pleasure he gets from his work is when someone tries his food and smiles - that always makes his day.

One of Waleed’s favorite holiday recipes is his Pecan Puff Cookies. He has yet to hear somebody say,

“I can only eat one.”

Pecan Puffs Mix soft butter with sugar 1 TBL at a time, add vanilla and continue mixing for 4 min. Combine flour
and baking powder and salt add to butter mixture. Once incorporated add the chopped pecans. Line
1 lb soft butter a cookie tray with parchment paper and scoop out 1oz balls of dough. Cook at 300 degrees for 20 min
2 cup sugar and let cool. Once cooled roll the cookie in the powder sugar.
2 TBL vanilla
10 cups flour

1 TBL 1TSP baking powder

¼ tsp salt

3 cup chopped pecans

3 cups powder sugar

Scotty Lee 19.
Scotty Lee, better known as Scotty is the Senior Institutional Cook at Y.G.C. He has been with the Probation
Department since 1992 and has also worked at Juvenile Hall, Y.L.A. and Los Pinos. Scotty has won Employee of the
Month honors in 2002, 2006, 2008 and 2016. Prior to joining Probation, he worked for 13 years in various restaurants
and delicatessens.

Scotty had a unique reason for becoming a cook. As a teenager he was a wrestler in the lighter weight classes and
due to this, he was constantly watching his weight for his matches. He had a passion for deserts and had to figure out
how to make them and still maintain his weight. Scotty set out to study to be an EMT but switched to Culinary Arts.
Scotty believes that a, “happy cook is a better cook.” It is a good thing, he says, when you serve a meal and the dining
room gets quiet since everyone is enjoying the meal. Since his specialty is deserts, the youth do not ask what’s for
dinner, but what’s for desert.

Keeping it in the family, his wife Gina, also works as a cook at Juvenile Hall. Scotty is the grandfather to two boys 11
and 8 and a devoted Angels and Ducks fan. After all these years, he still has not lost his passion for cooking.

Two of his favorite recipes are for Triple Threat Brownies and White Chocolate Sugar Cookie Bars.

Triple Threat Brownies

Chocolate chip cookie dough , Spread Sugar cookie dough out.
Oreo cookies
Brownie mix
Three items layered to make a really good desert
Spray your pan. Spread Choc. Chip cookie dough out. Layer Oreo Cookies on top. Then spread Brownie mix. Top
with remaining items.
Optional= adding 1 bag Milk choc. Chips on top of that. Bake 25-30 min. at 350

adopted Cell Dog “Ricky.”
October 6, 2018, was definitely a joyous
experience for many that day, especially for
a scruffy little Terrier named Ricky. Ricky
was one of the canines involved in the “Cell
Dogs” program at YGC. The other canine was
“Tucker”. Ricky and Tucker participated in
the program for several months while being
trained and housed in unit 500. The two went
through a rigorous method while learning
to become a loving pet for a new family.
Unfortunately, Ricky was having a hard time
convincing interested families that he was as
loving and cuddly as he looked. Ricky was
appearing to be unadoptable and was in
desperate need of a family who understood
his needs. Fortunately for Ricky, Mr. Horton
was able to observe his true genuine nature,
and understood his background enough
to comprehend and appreciate this loving
animal’s needs.
When Mr. Horton learned that Ricky
was in need of a home, he began to inquire
about all of the failed potential adopter visits
and spoke with the unit supervisor about
adopting Ricky. Shortly thereafter, Executive
Director Janette was overjoyed to hear that
Horton had some interest in Ricky. Janette
was very excited, because she knew that
Ricky had issues with his past first impression

was a perfect opportunity for Ricky to find a
home, just in time for the pup’s graduation
ceremony. Mr. Horton was able to take him
to a real home and surprise his family that
evening. His wife was super excited and
could not wait to see the look on their six-
year-old daughter’s face. Ricky did awesome,
even on day one. Mr. Horton’s two teenage
