Caltrain official lived in secret apartment built illegally inside train station


The lair built in the Burlingame station was furnished and even had a gym.

Images released Thursday by the San Mateo County district attorney’s office show the interior of the secret dwelling that Navarro, a former Caltrain deputy director, built illegally using public funds. Navarro, 66, who now lives in Newtown, Pennsylvania, received 28 days’ credit for time served and was placed on two years supervised probation by San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Lisa A. Novak. “Caltrain investigates such misconduct, and in cases where there is evidence of unlawful conduct by an employee or a contractor, we immediately act to rectify the situation and hold the individuals who are responsible accountable.”
