Possible gang corruption in LA.

[SheltieLover]

1. Yikes!

[OAITW r.2.0]

2. Important post.

Maybe time to investigate sheriffs that are working against the very interests of a democratic society,

3. I'm watching this story closely.

4. Important that corruption is publicly displayed. The only thing that separates

us from Russia or Pakistan or India is corruption.

5. This does not sound good

It looks like a knock-down-drag-out is occurring between the LA sheriff and its oversight department. It's very alarming and it raises a few questions, most of which I can't ask because I don't know a thing about the whole situation.

I'll start with:
- is there a gang problem in the LASD?
- is Ms. Giggins leading an investigation? Or is it that she is high enough in the department that has that task?
- Do the sheriffs and deputies have a warrant to search the premises and remove items? Or did they just walk in and just start taking stuff?

I have no idea who the good guys and the bad actors are here.

6. Yes. I agree. Don't know but it must be done publicly.

11. WE ARE HERE TO TAKE YOUR EVIDENCE AGAINST US?

How is this not seen as obstruction?

[Hekate]

7. KnR. That entire dept needs to be fired. There's ample evidence they are a gang...

This garbage I keep reading about how their bosses can’t tell who’s in the gangs is just that — garbage. They get tattoos, for gods’ sake. The doctors at their annual physical should be explicitly tasked with “distinguishing physical characteristics.”

8. LA Sheriffs going "Full Arpaio" to cover up their criminal gangs within.

Disgraceful, and not surprising in the slightest to anyone who has been paying attention.

9. Bet your butt, Aryan supremacy inspired and ingrained.

[crickets]

10. Double-plus ungood. K&R for visibility.

[krkaufman]

12. It's time...

Time for a rewatch of The Shield, to offer hope that they might face justice.
