Convicted felon Anthony Becker showed up at the Santa Clara City Council meeting on Tuesday and had a lot to say.
Becker spoke for over ten minutes about a lot of things that were mostly conspiracy theories, including saying that Santa Clara News Online got him fired from one or more of his jobs.

Here are some possible conspiracy theories.
Please vote for the ONE that you believe Becker actually said at the City Council meeting on Tuesday.
1. Becker said he leaked the Grand Jury report to the 49ers because he thought owner Jed York would give him free football tickets to Super Bowl LX. But Jed screwed him. Now Becker is ready to let “the public know where the bodies are buried.”
2. Becker resigned from the City Council after his felony perjury conviction but before he was sentenced. He thought it was the “right thing to do for Santa Clara.” Now he’s interested in serving on the Library Commission.
3. Becker believes District Attorney Jeff Rosen is in the Epstein Files. He wants the City Council to formally investigate “because the DA’s office doesn’t know how to hold people in power accountable.”
4. Becker’s laptop and computer have not been returned to him from prosecutors. That means he cannot play Fortnite. He’s asking the City Council pass a resolution demanding his property be returned to him within 90 days.
5. Becker said that a well-known local elected official tried to give him ketamine. He thinks he was being set up as part of a sting operation, just like in the movies.
6. Becker said that he was speaking out to defend Suds Jain against a possible recall. He said: “Yeah, Suds tried to cover up for me. But he did a lousy job of it. So what’s the big deal?”
[…] So Santa Clara News Online did what any responsible local news outlet would do: a reader poll. […]
You left out the part where he said “Now I hear O’Neal showing up to Council Member Park’s hearings at his divorce proceedings. That’s pretty disturbing.”
Hey Jeff,
Teresa is a good friend of Yun, Kevin’s wife. I’m glad she’s showing up to support her.
Maybe you should be more disturbed about domestic violence and child endangerment. That is if you’re a decent person.
[…] spoke for over ten minutes and unloaded a greatest-hits set of “mostly conspiracy theories,” including claiming SCNO got […]
Our city is really going downhill, fast.
The policy of allowing someone to give ‘their’ time to someone else is so grade school, and needs to stop.
And even with the extra time Anthony Becker still went way over the limit. Just a few years ago neither ‘giving time’ nor going 4 minutes past the limit was tolerated. Nor should it be.
And Kevin’s friend, the clown in a costume, was allowed to swear a blue streak. He wasn’t stopped, and pulled up short as he should have been. Or censured. No consequences?
Like anything else, if it isn’t stopped it will just get worse. Expect others in the near future to use the council chambers as a free 3 ring circus, in which they can perform at will, at no charge.
Did Park pay Becker back with dining privileges at the council trough?
The convicted felon, Anthony Becker, did not share anything new. Just a tired retelling of ‘woe is me’ as he droned on and on about why it is everybody else’s fault that he suffers so. I half expected him to complain about not being chosen for the basketball team in middle school. He clearly forgot that ‘something with teeth’ called the Santa Clara County Civil Grand Jury did an excellent job the past few years issuing several reports regarding Santa Clara and the City Council. Reports that are, to this day, referenced by other entities for a variety of reasons. And, let us not forget, Anthony Becker was convicted for sharing one of those reports. I heard no regrets or mention of that felony, but he remembers about sitting at a fundraiser? Goodness, how funny it is what he chooses to remember. Anthony Becker, do yourself a favor, move on and take responsibility for your choices.
Knowing Becker, all these are possible. Tough choices. Good list.
This is kind of sad. Anthony needs to realize he is a man of his own creation. And Santa Clara needs to realize it would be a good idea to station an officer in the chambers.
All of the Above.
Becker needs professional help

Evan Low and Patrick Ahrens should sue Becker and his husband for defamation.
Isn’t Becks still on probation?
Stupid is as stupid does.
Just can’t keep his mouth shut.
Haul him back to court.
