Sheriff Alex Villanueva called the investigation a 'fishing expedition' and 'political theater.'
The civilian commission charged with oversight of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department announced Thursday it will undertake a"full-scale investigation" into alleged deputy gangs operating within the agency.
Sheriff Alex Villanueva has repeatedly denigrated Huntsman's work as politically motivated at the behest of the county Board of Supervisors, with which the sheriff has often clashed on budget and policy issues. "Almost 6,000 pages were provided to the OIG on this subject almost a year ago, and LASD.org has an entire webpage dedicated to this topic," he said."There is nothing new.""I can see this for what it is -- the weaponization of government in order to influence the outcome of an election, nothing more," he said.
