Yes, and they are unfortunately not surprising. he moved the ufw leadership to a compound in tehachapi (it was previously in Delano, a town with a lot of ufw rank and file members, esp grape workers whereas tehachapi was ranch country with very few) and ran it essentially as a cult. I recommend Frank Bardakes book on the subject if you want a vast amount of detail on the subject
