## Resource

L.A. County’s Civilian Oversight Commission is suing the Sheriff’s Department to force disclosure of records tied to three high-profile incidents—including beatings and a fatal shooting—despite the department’s claims of confidentiality and procedural delays. With recent legal victories bolstering their subpoena power, the commission insists transparency is non-negotiable, especially after voters approved the authority in 2020 and new state laws expanded oversight access. The Sheriff’s Office, backed by county counsel’s opinion that the lawsuit lacks proper authorization, continues to resist—ignoring court rulings and public demand for accountability. Families and victims still await the documents that could reveal the truth behind these devastating events. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
