- Civilian oversight panel sues LA Sheriff’s Department over failure to release use-of-force documents
The Los Angeles Sheriff Civilian Oversight Commission sued the Sheriff’s Department for failing to comply with subpoenas seeking documents related to a deputy shooting and two deputy beatings. The department provided redacted documents, citing confidentiality, while a new state law grants civilian oversight boards access to previously restricted records. The department argues it must meet with unions before releasing confidential information, a claim criticized by the commission’s lawyer.
