Newsom can't tell LASD what to do, but he can ask they be investigated and charged.
LASD has a really bad White Nationalist - and other race related - gang problem.
And they'll work together to kill their own for "snitching".

(3,268 posts)Who deploys the LA County Sheriffs Department? Do they just wake up one morning, watch Fox and say to themselves Well boys, them brown people and hippies are making trouble again. Lets go. Someone in the county must have authorized them.
And then theres the larger question - whos coordinating all the different groups?
