Gary Kreep was an energetic activist for conservative causes in Southern California going back to the 1970’s and ‘80’s.
He just made my short list for 9th Circus...
Kreep is also a historic footnote with a problematic association with our favorite Russian-Israeli-American-Lawyer-Dentist, with whom he had a sometimes contentious off-on legal (one hopes) relationship.
Offhand, one might possibly imagine that's not altogether a good thing to have on the olde judicial CV.
