  Leaked documents outlining LACSD shoddy hiring practices

  on Documents Show LA Sheriff's Department Hired Thieves, Statutory Rapists And Bad Cops
  Hah! That’s putting it to them. Big THUMBS UP to the Los Angeles Times for sticking to its guns to maintain the integrity of the free press and print the information about how our local government instittuions are run. In effect, we the taxpayers, renters, and property owners in this county are the actual patrons for whom county wide agencies like the LACSD work.They have neither the privilege nor prerogative to foster cronyism and corruption. There appears to be a college fraternity subculture tightly nested within the ranks of the LACSD organization that includes a surprising number of women as enablers and co-perpetrators where secrets are tightly kept and loyalty trumps wrongdoings. A potent reminder is in order here and that is that their oath is to the protection and betterment of the people in Los Angeles county, not to each other. Furthermore, county agencies are not places for people with axes to grind to covertly advance their antisocial agendas. Hopefully the arrogance and corruption that flourished during the Baca years has seen its zenith and can be wound down and ferreted out as a proper functioning LACSD replaces it with better leadership and transparent recruitment standards.
