THE POLICE IN DIAMOND BAR, CALIFORNIA, ARE BRUTAL AND DISHONEST.

The City of Diamond Bar contracts with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department for all law enforcement services. That agency is beyond brutal. They are an agency of deputy gangsters.

The Los Angeles Sheriffs Department has a culture within that agency of various “gangs of officers”, who routinely beat, torture, maim and kill members of the jails, and of the community, for fun; for the honor of the gang. Everybody is a scumbag and have no rights.

LASD Sheriff Robert Luna 2The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has come under fire for fostering an ongoing culture of those “Deputy Gangs” at the various Sheriff’s Department stations. Some of these deputy gangs require that a deputy murder someone while on-duty to be admitted to the gang, like the Compton Station’s “Executioners”. See, “Executioner’ gang dominates Compton sheriff station“, Los Angeles Times, July 20, 2020. 

The gang culture at the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has gotten so bad, the last few sheriffs have been powerless to do anything about that agency’s gang problem. Recently, Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna announced a ban on those deputy gangs. See, Sheriff’s Department announces long-awaited policy banning deputy gangs, Los Angeles Times, September 18, 2024.

In 2021 the California legislature banned police gangs at police agencies in California with the enactment of Cal. Pen. Code § 13670, that provided that all California police agencies ban officer gangs within their department, and defined police gangs as:

(2) “Law enforcement gang” means a group of peace officers within a law enforcement agency who may identify themselves by a name and may be associated with an identifying symbol, including, but not limited to, matching tattoos, and who engage in a pattern of on-duty behavior that intentionally violates the law or fundamental principles of professional policing, including, but not limited to, excluding, harassing, or discriminating against any individual based on a protected category under federal or state antidiscrimination laws, engaging in or promoting conduct that violates the rights of other employees or members of the public, violating agency policy, the persistent practice of unlawful detention or use of excessive force in circumstances where it is known to be unjustified, falsifying police reports, fabricating or destroying evidence, targeting persons for enforcement based solely on protected characteristics of those persons, theft, unauthorized use of alcohol or drugs on duty, unlawful or unauthorized protection of other members from disciplinary actions, and retaliation against other officers who threaten or interfere with the activities of the group.

However, as most of the deputy gangs at the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department run various Sheriff’s Department stations, in the real world the Sheriff’s Department would have to fire about one-third of its deputies to rid itself of those gangs.

50 Years of Deputy Gangs in LASDNonetheless, the public tolerates the existence, and the perpetuation of an ongoing unwritten agreement among and between peace officers, to falsely report, and, if necessary, to thereafter conspire with officers who they may not yet even know, to falsely testify, about event(s), if the potential or apparent criminal, administrative and civil liability of a fellow officer is at stake. After all, in the primary category of cases that truly are “false arrests” in the most malevolent sense of the word, “Contempt of Cop cases”, the only reason that there’s an arrest of a civilian at all, is because the Constable has violated another (i.e. beaten-up / torture); usually to self-medicate rather frail and easily bruise-able egos.
