Sheriff Villanueva Will Start Sending His Staff To Parole Hearings

(Los Angeles, CA) — Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva is at odds with District Attorney George Gascon. Deputy district attorneys were recently barred from sitting in at parole hearings. On Wednesday, Villanueva sent a letter to the D.A., saying he plans to start sending his personnel to court to give victims and their families “a voice.” The sheriff also says his department will keep writing “letters in opposition” until something changes, and vows to have his staff present at all meetings, both virtual and in-person.
