As the old saying goes, “The young lawyer knows the law, but the old lawyer knows the Judge”. THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT IS OFTEN A BRUTAL AGENCY OF STREET GANGSTERS WITH BADGES. Walnut is a city in the eastern part of Los Angeles County, California that has a population of approximately 30,000. The City of Walnut contracts for its police services with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, whose deputies have deployed out of the Walnut/Diamond Bar Sheriff’s Station located at 21695 Valley Blvd., Walnut, California since 1987. Since the 1970’s, many of the stations of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department have been run and ruined by deputy gangs, in which membership is basically white and Hispanic deputies who value cruelty, generalized brutality and real-deal murder as a virtue rather than a vice. This is no joke. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Deputy gangs purposefully injure or kill civilians, plant or fabricate evidence, commit perjury (all cops do that), retaliate against deputies not in a gang or those who do not condone their actions. This is not lefty propaganda; this is reality. See, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Legal Compliance: Deputy Gangs, February 26, 2024. Some stations, such as the East Los Angeles Station, were essentially operated by a deputy gang. A lawsuit filed by eight deputies and the American Civil Liberties Union alleged that the Banditos “controls the East Los Angeles station like inmates running a prison yard.” Promotions, working hours, and time off were also alleged to be determined by deputy gang leaders known as shot-callers. See, Banditos clique controls operations at East LA Sheriff’s station, lawsuit claims, Boyle Heights Beat, September 20, 2019. The “Executioners” deputy gang who deploy out of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department require their deputy gang prospects to actual shoot and kill a civilian, wrongfully and maliciously (i.e. murder), to be admitted to that gang; murderers only. Again, this is no joke. See, Compton Station L.A. County deputy alleges ‘Executioner’ gang dominates Compton sheriff station, Los Angeles Times, July 30, 2020. See also, Deputy gang with matching tattoos rules Compton patrol station, LASD deputy alleges, KABC7 News, July 31, 2020 and The Executioners – A Tradition of Violence, December 13, 2022. The deputy gang problem at the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department got so bad that the California Legislature has to pass a statute banning police officer gangs at all California police agencies in 2021 with the enactment of Cal. Pen. Code § 13670. However, in reality, nothing has been done at the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department to ban deputy gangs, and in reality, nothing is going to happen in the foreseeable future. No one ever got elected to office in this country by promising to protect the public from the police. While the Walnut station is not dominated by deputy gangs, but they are nonetheless often brutal and violent. Most acts of violence by deputies from the Walnut station arise in the context of “Contempt of Cop” incidents; incidents in which a civilian verbally protests or verbally challenges police actions or orders. Although verbal protests or verbal challenges police actions or orders is constitutionally protected conduct (Houston v. Hill, 482 U.S. 451 (1987)), do so will in the real world in Walnut result in you being beaten or tased or pepper-sprayed, and then falsely arrested and maliciously prosecuted for some fabricated “resistance offense” such as violation of Cal. Penal Code § 69 (resisting officer with force), Cal. Penal Code § 148(a)(1) (resisting/delaying/obstructing a officer), Cal. Penal Code § 240/241 (assault on officer), Cal. Penal Code § 242 / 243(b) & (c) (battery on officer causing injury) and Cal. Penal Code § 245(c) (assault on officer with weapon). IF YOU ARE THE VICTIM OF POLICE MISCONDUCT, JERRY L.
