Kolts Report on L.A. Sheriff Dept.
Although I praise James Kolts and his staff for their probe into the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s lax and ineffective discipline, I am deeply disappointed they tiptoed around Sheriff Block and failed to hold him accountable for the wrongdoings of his department.
As the leader of an 8,000-plus countywide law enforcement agency, it was his duty to take swift and appropriate measures to curtail the widespread misconduct and insensitivity on his department. By failing to do so, Sheriff Block let down the hard-working taxpayers who voted him into office.
