THE YEAR IN REVIEW 1995 : Fallen Angels of the City : Robert Citron, Hugh Grant, Nate Holden, Mark Fuhrman, Art Snyder, the Raiders and Rams, O.C Supervisors and All the Rest--You Dropped Something.

- Hugh Grant, the winsome British actor, who pleaded no contest to charges of lewd conduct in a public place after police caught him in his car with a Sunset Boulevard prostitute.

- L.A. City Councilman Nate Holden, who beat back sexual harassment charges only to have photographs revealed showing him with bare-breasted women while on official city business in Korea.

- Orange County Assemblywoman Doris Allen, who broke ranks with the GOP to become speaker of the lower house and ended up being recalled by wrathful Republicans voters back home.

- Drs. Ricardo H. Asch, Jose P. Balmaceda and Sergio C. Stone, the UC Irvine fertility specialists who built a world-famous practice, only to face accusations that they owed their success to a habit of stealing eggs and embryos from some patients and implanting them in less fecund women. The allegations have prompted seven investigations and more than a dozen lawsuits; meanwhile, UC Irvine faces accusations that it tried to silence whistle-blowers by paying them off.

- The Rams and the Raiders, for leaving the nation’s second-biggest market bereft of a football team.

- Orange County ex-Treasurer Robert L. Citron, who wheeled and dealed the state’s richest county into bankruptcy and then blamed his mistakes on dementia.

- San Dimas Mayor Terry Dipple, who was ordered to complete 100 hours of community service after pleading no contest to charges that he filched $1,500 from the San Gabriel Meals-On-Wheels program.

- Mark Fuhrman, the square-jawed LAPD detective whose public image went from good cop to bad cop in the span of a single murder trial--prompting him to high-tail it into retirement in Idaho.

- Former Republican Assemblyman Paul V. Horcher, who, like Doris Allen, earned the wrath of his party and constituents by helping Democratic trickster Willie Brown keep the speakership of the lower house out of the hands of Brown’s Republican enemies.

- L.A. County Board of Supervisors, who quietly mortgaged so many of the county’s major assets that when this year’s budget crisis arose, the county had no option but to cut--and cut deeply.

- The Legal Affairs Council, the conservative legal defense fund, for insisting that a welcome home fund-raiser for convicted felon Laurence M. Powell be held at the city-owned Police Academy, despite the former LAPD officer’s role in the Rodney G. King beating.

- L.A. City Fire Chief Donald O. Manning, who quit in 1995 after controversy left him twice-burned--first by charges that he tolerated sexism and racism on his watch, and then by claims that he rented the city’s historic firehouses to movie producers and put the money into a private account.

- Kevin Mitnick, the legendary fugitive hacker from the San Fernando Valley, who was captured after a sophisticated electronic manhunt traced him to a North Carolina apartment house. A federal judge in Los Angeles later sentenced him to rehabilitation for his addiction to computer crimes.

- The five Orange County supervisors sitting at the time of the county’s bankruptcy, whose part in the county’s financial fiasco ended with the retirement of two members, the resignation of a third and civil accusations of official misconduct that could result in the removal from office of the fourth and fifth.

- Marcus A. Rodriguez, the for mer chief deputy director of the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, who was sentenced to seven years in prison for embezzling $2.1 million from the museum and its foundation at a time when the institution was laying off workers and closing exhibits.

- The Los Angeles Zoo, which nearly lost its accreditation after outside experts and government officials revealed a host of problems, from funding difficulties to substandard animal quarters, at the once-sparkling facility. A new interim director and staff are feverishly working to oversee emergency improvements, but they acknowledge that much remains to be done.

- David Rough and Jose Mendez Flores, the MTA consultant and bus driver who bilked the huge transit agency of at least $1.2 million by trafficking in bus passes and transfers. Their punishment was as unusual as their crime: In addition to jail time, Mendez Flores was not allowed to have more than one bus transfer at a time and Rough, no MTA pass.

- Charlie Sheen, the swashbuckling movie star and leading man whose name was finally named in the Heidi Fleiss trial, for admitting--under oath and with a promise of immunity--that he spent tens of thousands of dollars on Fleiss’ prostitutes.

- Art Snyder, the scandal-plagued former L.A. city councilman who landed in hot water again this year--this time for allegedly trying to boost the influence of his downtown law firm by illegally funneling campaign funds to local politicians. Snyder has bitterly denied the charges; meanwhile, plea negotiations are expected to carry into 1996.

- LAPD Dets. Andrew A. Teague and Charles Markel, who were suspended for falsifying evidence and then lying about it after a public defender caught a forged signature on a witness statement that they had used to frame a suspect in a murder case.

- U.S. Rep. Walter Tucker III, who left Congress after being convicted of federal extortion and tax evasion--and then endorsed his wife to succeed him.

- Franklin White, the chief of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, who was fired in the face of mounting criticism over the management of the problem-plagued agency.

- Gov. Pete Wilson, who lambasted illegal immigrants only to be forced to reveal that one had worked in his own home.
