LA Times: ‘Our own little Y2K’: L.A. County Sheriff’s computer dispatch system crashes on New Year’s Eve
"A few hours before the ball dropped on New Year’s Eve, the computer dispatch system for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department crashed, rendering all patrol car computers nearly useless and forcing deputies to handle all calls by radio, according to officials and sources in the department."
Crypto mogul known as ‘The Godfather’ used L.A. deputies for extortion, feds allege
Adam Iza, who ran a cryptocurrency trading platform known as Zort, allegedly paid several L.A. County sheriff’s deputies — sometimes tens of thousands of dollars — to perform unlawful searches and arrests as part of an extortion scheme, according to a federal criminal complaint unsealed this week.
The person that reported in the #LASD gangs had been surveiled by them after reporting it... And the Sheriff's initially tried to not release the proof of doing such (and are stalling on a more recent request of it)

LA Metro will vote tomorrow on creating their own police force rather than contracting with LAPD and LASD as they currently do and here's the LA Times editorializing in favor of this absolutely gross plan. This editorial is chock full of lies about safety, declining ridership, etc. Obviously this plan is about harassing the homeless, the poor, and other vulnerable populations, because that's what the cops do now. These people have never ridden a damn bus.
"While there are legitimate concerns about the cost and logistics of building a police department from scratch, including Metro’s ability to staff up at a time when agencies are struggling to hire officers, contracting for law enforcement service is not working well. It’s time to try a different approach. Metro is facing a doom spiral if it cannot make the system safer and increase ridership. An in-house police force is not a panacea for all the system’s ills, but rather one piece of a broader safety strategy that ensures riders feel comfortable and well served on L.A. public transit."

'A Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputy who died in South Los Angeles in April succumbed to the “effects of methamphetamine,” according to the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner.'

Six years ago, a plumber found the decomposing body of Raymundo Rivera inside a pillar at a Winco supermarket in Lancaster. At the time, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department officials said the 35-year-old appeared to have fled during a traffic stop and may have “gotten inside there and gotten down to try and hide from the deputies and then couldn’t get out.”
But according to a lawsuit filed Wednesday in L.A. Superior Court, former Deputy Aaron Tanner later boasted that he and other deputies had chased Rivera — and that they knew he’d fallen into the pillar. Instead of trying to save him, the suit says, “the deputies left him there to die, and made false reports that they lost track of the suspect in the pursuit.”
...
In addition to raising a litany of other claims about Tanner — including an on-duty incident in which he allegedly cut off a dead horse’s leg — the suit also describes repeated misconduct involving other members of the [LASD gang called the] Rattlesnakes.
UCLA PD along with LAPD and LASD just arrested more than 40 people including faculty , legal observers, and at least three local journalists and charged them with conspiracy to commit burglary. This daily bruin story has the first part of it and the rest is from Twitter. This was in response to a planned demonstration on campus this morning.

Four lives ended too soon
By their own hands, so tragic for all
Let us not forget
LA County has settled with a reporter abused by police, but curiously, they don't admit wrongdoing, and "A memo to the board of supervisors from the county’s litigation cost manager recommending approval of the settlement contained only the deputies’ account of what happened." Note that the department made multiple accusations against the reporter that were refuted by video from her phone, which deputies tried to destroy at the scene.
Somehow I don't think this settlement will change anything. SSDD.
Four former/current Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department employees killed themselves Monday. #LASD
