Baca: October 2010 Archives
This from the Associated Press:
LOS ANGELES-Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca directed detectives to launch a criminal investigation against a tenant of one of his well-connected supporters and contributors, a report published Sunday said.
The department's investigation, prompted by a handwritten note from Baca, targeted a man in a Beverly Hills rental dispute with Ezat Delijani, a longtime Baca donor.
The sheriff sent the note with his request to his chief of detectives, who gave it a special "rush" status normally reserved for serious crimes, the published report indicated.
The note, written on a printed e-mail from Delijani's son, read: "Chief Miller-This case involves a 'lease forgery.' Could you have our people investigate this."
From the Associated Press:
LOS ANGELES -- A report says Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca told detectives to launch a criminal investigation against a tenant of one of his well-connected supporters and contributors.
A newspaper reported Sunday said the department's investigation targeted a man who was in a Beverly Hills rental dispute with longtime Baca donor Ezat Delijani.
It was reported that the investigation was outside Baca's jurisdiction and Beverly Hills police had already concluded there was no crime involved.
The story says the sheriff sent a handwritten note to his chief of detectives requesting the probe and detectives gave it a special "rush" status normally reserved for serious crimes.
Baca told a reporter he had little personal involvement in the probe and Delijani received no special treatment.
