2017 - Disclosed Antique Business, declared Real Estate - but didn't provide APN or Address
2017 - Disclosed Antique Business, declared Real Estate - but didn't provide APN or Address
In 2017 Church disclosed he and Kathrine McKenzie had an Antique Business.
Assets in the 10-100k range and income in the 10-100k range.
He stated his biggest client was the Cannery Row Antique Mall and this business owned "Real Property" but he left the APN blank.
PROBLEMS:
He and McKenzie owned 5 spaces in the antique mall that were not disclosed.
A person a the mall stated the spaces he owned on the 2nd floor he couldn't own becuase the owners of the mall had never sold any of those
The Cannery Row Antique Mall isnt a customer. It's their property manager / HOA coordinator for 5 condos.
Antiques are an exceptional business to claim for purposes of money laundering. You can claim you bought jewely for 5k at an auction when nothing was bought and you can sell costume jewelry to an associate for 20k, claim a 15k profit and launder money.
2/2/2023 - Generic/Incomplete Business Declaration for "SOMETHING"
2/2/2023 - Generic/Incomplete Business Declaration for "SOMETHING"
On 2/2/2023 the Clerk of Montery County accepted a documentt that was patently incomplete. Wrong page number to page count, missing Schedule C's, missing information, incomplete answers etc.
This is what Church submitted for "McKenzie and Church". At face value two names would be a partnership but Church checks Sole Proprietorship and says he's the owner (vs Partner).
Church provides NO DESCRIPTION of the business yet states the Fair Market Value is 100k to 1M and that he/they make 10k-100k a year on the un-described business.
He then states no single client represents more than 10% while declining to check "investment" or "real estate".
All the incomplete answers were a great way to generate suspicion.

3/3/2023 - Ammended form discloses Antique business, but he reduces networth from 100k to 1M to 10k- 100k while then listing all the Wave St properties by APN only.

On 3/3/2023 Church files an amended form.
Now the FMV is only 10k-100k not 100k to 1M.
Still no related real estate and his largest "source of income" is the Cannery Row Antique Mall.
They are not a customer. They are the condominium owner. (that's like calling your landlord your tenant)
3/3/2023 - Church Disclosed 5 properties by APN only this time -- on the ammended form (that was also incomplete)

Church indicates some rent may come in and that may or may not make sense if he's renting out some or all of the space, but who are those renters? Might one be Gavin Newsome's wife , Rob Bonta's Cousin, Bill Lockyer's relatives or George Soros himself ? While it's probably none of those above, might it be partners in or from the Private Landfill or someone from the Multi-county water initiatives or financial districts he may be engaging with? Or maybe a Real Estate Broker that might prevent him from feeling good about reporting on Brokerage fraude? Or maybe a Judge's Wife and someone who might prevent him from feeling good about reporting on Judiciary fraud?
2023 - Church - McKenzie and the Cannery Row Antique Mall (owned since 2015/2016)
2023 - Church - McKenzie and the Cannery Row Antique Mall (owned since 2015/2016)
Glenn Church and Kathryn McKenzie own Antiques and they own spaces in an Antique Mall (that has been condminium-ized).
The way in which these facts were initially declared was incomplete and confusing. Upon amendment an Antique Business was disclosed, while the property addresses were obfuscated.
Given Antiques are often a cash business with little documentation, they are an exceptional avenue for money laundering. Fuerthermore, those engaging in antuqes are often wealthy and often have multi-generational wealth. That naturally creates a network of wealthy people who may have interest in purchasing influence, and this is but one concern. Another is that he may be engaging in Consulting Business and running that money through the Antique Business to hide those connections.
And this becomes a little more confusing and concerning when you find out that according to two different people at the Antique Mall ,none of the units on the 2nd floor have ever been sold to anyone -- when we have land records showing four have been sold to Churcn and McKenzie.
Or does that mean Church owns the building too and this was just an odd way to give individual ownership to his new wife Kathryn McKenzie?
And if that's the case, who were the three guys working in the back corner of the 2nd floor that the staff called the owners?
And why is all this relevant again?
Glenn Church ran for and won public office without any disclosures upfront. He started drawing on a $180,000 pay package while a friend of his with no political experience was installed as his Chief of Staff. She started drawing on a `$130,000 package.
Together, they started pushing through legislation and odd contracts for garbage that were illogical. They refused to engage in any reasonable dialogue about anything while using evasive writing techniques as if they owned no one a straight answer.
They literally acted like mafia players -- and an Antique Mall would be an exceptional place to launder money and engage with a wide array of people who may want favors and be willing to pay for them in ways that is nearly untrackable and not auditable.
At one of Glenn and Kathryn's spaces you can choose between historic playboys or a stuffed M and M for starters.
On 2/2/2023 the Clerk of Montery County accepted a document that shows 5 parcels of real estate owned at 471 Wave St. (ste 111, 209, 222, 248 261). The real estate turned out to be spaces inside this building. It has been partioned like a flea market but legally subdivided as a condominium. According to Church's disclosures, 111, 222, and 261 all had Fair Market Values of 10k to 100k and 209 and 248 had values of 2k-10k.
Booth 222 and booth 261 were about 100 to 150 sf. Given those are included in the more expensive grouping, 209 and 248 must be tiny. we were not able to locate those at all nor 111.
(found tax records that later identified the locations -- and yes the two were tiny -- counter spaces)
The odd part is that two different people stated none of the units on the 2nd floor had ever been sold. They still belonged ot the original owner(s), one or more of whom may have been in the rear upper corner of the building cutting out posters the day of the visit.
For reference, on 10/2/2025 a 10x10 space sold for $39,000. This is a place where people with money and time congregate and finding out after inauguration your "small business Christmas tree man" has this level of engagement with the local Antique Industry is not a great feeling.
Spaces 222 and 261 found (111, 209, 248 not found)
Spaces 222 and 261 found (111, 209, 248 not found)
The only spaces locatable were 222 and 261. It's presumed the others are there. The markings were small and inconsistent.
Auditabilty for Cashflow is an impossibility
Auditabilty for Cashflow is an impossibility
An Antique Business is impossible to audit or monitor for illicit proceeds. Sales that are made via the attendants would have a paper trail but the rest would be whatever he wanted to say they were. We have to take him on his word he is not engaging in money laundering related to Political favors, income from Consulting via Pacific Coast Soils or other businesses.
This is not a good look for any County Supervisor or the Monterey County Board of Supervisors.
