Baca to supposedly resign Tues.

[retired]

http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/local/los_angeles&id=9384016

Also, I just saw it on the 11pm news on ABC. They reported the LA Times is reporting this.

IIRC, there is no Undersheriff since he forced Tanaka out. IIRC also, there is now 3, instead of 2 Assistant Sheriffs. I can't recall if I am correct about the preceding, but I believe is correct. I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. If Baca does resign, it will be interesting to see if the Board of Supervisors appoints one of them as an interim Sheriff until the election or goes outside the dept. to find one.

ETA: I was incorrect and was advised via pm there are 4, not 3 Asst. Sheriffs. McDonald came from Corrections, Rhambo and Hellmold are from within LASD and I don't know anything about Rogers.

Ron, I would think since he is resigning (if he does), the Board won't allow that due to the reasons for his resigning. Plus, that might actually hurt that person if he or she intended to run for Sheriff this year due to a stigma being attached to Baca. It will be interesting to see how it develops. The idea that he might resign never even came to me. I was hoping for him to be defeated in the election as repudiation.

Yep, interesting will be mild.

OT is already burning up with this. I'm guessing it won't be long before it gets locked. Some people can't discuss things rationally.

He may make one of the AS the "Acting Sheriff" before he resigns, but the Board can appoint an interim Sheriff.

Rhambo is as dirty as Tanaka. McDonald doesn't have the credentials for the Job. If it is Todd Rogers, I'm not impressed. He was a sergeant when we were at IDT. No integrity.

wow, so no matter which direction they look to...

[lavey29]

Kind of makes you wonder if a second wave of indictments is on the horizon now...

[Jimi Jah]

About time. The last sheriff died in office.

Will they keep the prop gun around or do they give it back to the movie company?

[iguy]

Is the prop gun thing for real or just urban legend? I've asked a couple Deputies about it in the past, some say it's true and others say it's B.S. . I have noticed though, that he rarely wears a Sam Browne.

What's the word on Hellmold?

Why would Baca not wait until June when his term is up?

Probably so they won't fire him first.

Perhaps in lieu of a Federal Indictment?
