In the unfortunate news department, Giovanni Di Maio, an Italian chef who co-owned Santa Cruz's defunct Caffe Bella Napoli and cooked at Limoncello, has been arrested on suspicion of possessing and distributing child pornography. His Italian citizenship means the case has been referred to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, and the Santa Cruz Police Department is in search of people who may have had "inappropriate contact" with Di Maio.
