Quick Glance: Buyers Secure San Jose Downtown Condos at Foreclosure Auction with Bids up to $32,300
- Potential buyers gathered for an auction to acquire ten condominiums in a residential building in downtown San Jose constructed by a developer facing challenges, despite legal processes aiming to postpone the foreclosure and sale.
- Following the delinquency of Z&L Properties in paying the HOA maintenance fees for the ten condominiums, the association for the dual-tower complex organized the auction.
- Despite the issuance of a temporary restraining order by Santa Clara County Superior Court Helen Williams on April 2, the auction activities continued outside the courthouse, leading to an unexpected and thrilling sequence of events.
- Z&L Properties has a 90-day window to reclaim ownership of the recently sold units if the outstanding fees, fines, and interests for each condominium are settled. Nevertheless, the purchasers of the nine units paid a remarkable fraction of the expected price for residential properties in a high-rise building in the Bay Area.

Quick Glance: Allegation: Arrested Teacher Coerced Student to Abort
- Shawn Renee Thomas, 56, of Los Gatos, was arrested in March 2024 on suspicion of engaging in a sexual relationship with a student while serving as a teacher at Leigh High School in San Jose in the early 2000s. In a recent lawsuit, the accuser alleges that he compelled her to terminate a pregnancy that arose from their illicit sexual connection.
- The plaintiff, identified as Jane Doe in legal documents, claims that she found herself pregnant in 2003 at the age of 15 and Shawn Thomas insisted on her undergoing an abortion. This detail is outlined in the lawsuit filed against Thomas and the Campbell Union High School District.
- Furthermore, Doe asserts that Thomas' wife, who was a dean at the school during the events, nearly caught them engaging in sexual activity in a classroom. Upon informing Sarah Thomas about her pregnancy later on, the lawsuit states that the dean shifted blame onto her, and no report of her husband's sexual misconduct suspicions was made to authorities by anyone at the school.
- The accuser brought the abuse allegations to the attention of the San Jose police in early March, triggering an investigation that led to Thomas' arrest on March 22. Charges of rape, sexual penetration of a minor, and five counts of lewd and lascivious acts on a minor have been pressed against him.

Quick Glance: Audit: Lack of Transparency in Tracking Homelessness Spending in San Jose
- A recently released state audit revealed that over the past three years, San Jose has not consistently reported on the expenditure of over $300 million to combat homelessness. This raises doubts about whether the money is actually contributing to alleviating the crisis.
- The report also found that San Jose lacks clear goals for its homelessness programs and does not have a cohesive plan for building the necessary affordable housing for the estimated 6,340 homeless residents.
- Auditors presented a series of recommendations for San Jose to implement by September, including public reporting on homelessness spending, developing a response plan with specific goals, and monitoring the performance of nonprofit service providers.
- Despite some disputes over the findings, the city has already started implementing many of the audit's recommendations. Mayor Matt Mahan emphasized the importance of setting goals, measuring results, and being accountable for outcomes.
