  1. @briankrebs Me before opening: Hahaha it's probably LASD; they're literally a gang.

    Me, opening the story: welp.

  2. 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.

  3. Today LASD posted the 18th in-custody death for this year, a 32-year-old who died in his cell in the 2800 floor of Men's Central Jail -- the facility that was at one point scheduled for closure earlier this year.

  4. Last year during an inspection at East LA sheriff's station, an OIG official saw something shocking: a defaced poster of her boss next to a gun, w/words that seemed like a threat

    Six mths later, IG Max Huntsman detailed what happened afterward.

  5. NEW: Inspector General Max Huntsman sent letters to 35 deputies Friday, directing them to come in and identify members of the Banditos and Executioners deputy gangs. Deputies must answer, unless they fear self incrimination, Huntsman said.

  6. LA jails are now up to FIFTEEN in-custody deaths this year.

    The most recent was a 19-year-old, who died at Men's Central Jail - the notorious, dungeon-like facility that was supposed to be closed earlier this year.

  7. A few days ago, I reported that LASD had begun investigating a memo accusing the East LA captain of racial bias + retaliation

    Now, officials confirm she's being moved to court services. It's not a demotion - but a lateral transfer to a less-desired post. #lasd #losangles #googlelasdgangs

  8. The sprawling $80 million lawsuit over alleged abuse by deputy gangs at the East LA sheriffs station will move forward after surviving a pair of summary judgment hearings this week and last:

  9. NEW: Last week, I got a leaked memo claiming an LASD captain allegedly schemed to avoid promoting an “angry black guy" who had testified about deputy gangs.

    Here's my story, and part of the memo that sparked an investigation. #lasd #googlelasdgangs #losangeles latimes.com/california/story/2

  10. LA jails just posted their 11th death this year -- another at Men's Central Jail, marking the fourth this year in that particular facility.

    This is the same facility the county previously said they'd close by 2023.

  11. I interviewed the Los Angeles sheriff last week and the interview finally published today. Unfortunately, I had to leave out the best part so I have come here to share it with y'all: latimes.com/california/story/2 #sheriff #lasd #googlelasdgangs #latimes
