Dear Editor,
I want to bring to your attention an ongoing issue concerning Kent Laudon, a Senior Environmental Scientist with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). Kent has been involved in multiple DUI incidents, the most recent in January 2025, following an arrest in August 2024 (and possibly a prior). Notably, the 2024 arrest appears to have been removed from public record, which raises concerns about potential cover-ups or preferential treatment due to his position and connections.
