CALIFORNIA IN BRIEF : SAN FRANCISCO : North Prosecutor Joins Police Board
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
The chief prosecutor in the trial of Oliver North has been appointed to the San Francisco Police Commission. Mayor Art Agnos said he appointed lawyer John Keker to the post because a “strong presence” is needed on the panel. Keker, named a city fire commissioner by Agnos last year, will replace former Police Chief Al Nelder, who was the last remaining appointee of former Mayor Dianne Feinstein. Nelder resigned suddenly.
