Are LASD gangs terrorizing communities? L.A. County has no idea. It better find out
Los Angeles Times ^ | Mar 30, 2019

Posted on 04/02/2019 6:00:50 AM PDT by george76

secret cliques of violent, tattooed sheriff’s deputies continue to operate in stations around Los Angeles County and that one may have played a role in a fatal shooting in 2016. County leaders reacted with alarm, and appropriately so, because it had been generally thought that these sorts of dangerous deputy gangs had been stamped out following a series of reforms several years earlier. It was necessary to find out if they had returned, or if indeed they had never left. Then-Sheriff Jim McDonnell promised a study and he was immediately joined by county lawyers, the inspector general and the Sheriff Civilian Oversight Commission in a task force to get to the bottom of the issue.

...

a brawl last September at the East Los Angeles Sheriff’s station involving a group of deputies that called themselves the Banditos resulted in the hospitalization of some younger members of the department

...

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has a long history of violent gang-like deputy groups beginning in the 1970s.

...

Jail deputies from “competing” floors in Men’s Central Jail brawled with each other and brutally beat inmates and even visitors without just cause. The county continues to pay hundreds of millions of dollars to plaintiffs — both in and outside the department — who say they have been victimized by deputies acting as part of cliques like the Banditos. One female deputy said she was assaulted and harassed after declining a demand by Banditos for sex.

A 2013 probe led to the firing of seven deputies associated with the Jump Out Boys, whose tattoo depicted a skeleton holding a revolver. Deputies involved in shootings would alter their tattoos to add new wisps of smoke coming from the gun.

Mother country failed.

Now they are bringing their failure north.

Aided, of course, by the failed liberal party inappropriately called “Democrats”.

Four days after the Sheriff demands to rescind all civilian concealed carry permits.

Only coppers should have guns.
