Two former Los Angeles County Sheriff’s officials gave conflicting testimony Friday as to whether Sheriff Alex Villanueva impeded a 2018 investigation into a deputy gang based at the East L.A. Station.
Burson recounted two conversations with Del Mese, the first on Nov. 27, 2018, six days before the recently-elected Villanueva took office. He said in that phone call Del Mese informed him that Villanueva wanted to hold off on asking questions about the Banditos until he was officially the sheriff.
When asked by lead investigator Bert Deixler if he now feels he was “used as kind of an unknowing dupe to shut down an investigation,” Burston replied, “I believe I was.”Burson said the day before his Dec. 7 conversation with Del Mese, Villanueva promoted him two ranks, from captain to division chief — skipping commander, the next rung in promotions. Burson insisted there was “absolutely not” a quid pro quo for his promotion.
Savitt also said Villanueva wouldn’t show up because of “inadequate security at the present venue and [his and his command staff’s] personal safety is at issue.” Spectators at past hearings were “aggressively hostile” towards the sheriff and the department “as evidenced by their behavior in chanting and wearing jackets stating ‘F*** the East LA’ and postings on Twitter ‘F*** the Sheriff,’” she wrote.
Bonner noted this is the fifth time Villanueva has refused to comply with a lawful subpoena from the oversight panel.The hearing was part of the oversight panel's “full scale” investigation into the decades-old problem of secretive deputy subgroups.
