"bio": "Ezra David Romero is a climate reporter for KQED News. He covers the absence and excess of water in the Bay Area — think sea level rise, flooding and drought. For nearly a decade he’s covered how warming temperatures are altering the lives of Californians. He’s reported on farmers worried their pistachio trees aren’t getting enough sleep, families desperate for water, scientists studying dying giant sequoias, and alongside firefighters containing wildfires. His work has appeared on local stations across California and nationally on public radio shows like Morning Edition, Here and Now, All Things Considered and Science Friday. ",

San Mateo County District Attorney Stephen Wagstaffe soon found “there was no basis to believe any violation of law had occurred, and Tapia “should not have been arrested” on suspicion of time card fraud.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board soon took a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12014310/san-mateo-county-supervisors-to-hold-vote-of-no-confidence-in-sheriff-christina-corpus\">vote of no confidence\u003c/a> in Corpus and eliminated Aenlle’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12037502/embattled-san-mateo-sheriff-brings-back-former-aide-alleged-romantic-partner\">civilian position\u003c/a>.

She didn’t, but most of her leadership team did. Many of them had been personally recruited by Corpus to join her, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12026356/lawsuit-alleges-continued-intimidation-retaliation-at-san-mateo-sheriffs-office\">several who have filed lawsuits\u003c/a> against Corpus and the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March, voters \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12029793/san-mateo-county-poised-historic-removal-sheriff-after-special-election\">passed the measure\u003c/a> by 84% to allow supervisors to remove Corpus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thomas “Tip” Mazzucco, one of three attorneys appearing on behalf of Corpus at Tuesday’s meeting, said the board shouldn’t have been able to reach the four votes needed to remove the sheriff. He said Supervisors Noelia Corzo and Ray Mueller, two former Corpus supporters who later championed the push to remove her, should have recused themselves from the vote because of “statements they have made.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sheriff Corpus is not resigning. She hasn’t run and hid from you. She’s not going anywhere,” Mazzucco said. “She will exhaust all her administrative remedies and then all her judicial remedies. This is political. It’s not practical. It’s become personal, and we will take this as far as we need to take it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Corzo said she looks forward to the day when all the information available to supervisors is made public, including transcripts from Corpus’ Skelly hearing, a routine, pre-disciplinary process for public employees in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That pre-removal conference was held behind closed doors, and the report from the county’s Chief Probation Officer John Keene has been kept confidential at Corpus’ request, according to the county. In it, \u003ca href=\"https://www.smcgov.org/ceo/news/san-mateo-county-supervisors-accept-recommendation-remove-sheriff-christina-corpus-office\">he stated\u003c/a> that he found Corpus “violated the for-cause provisions” and that her removal was warranted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides Cordell’s extensive report, the county also relied on an investigation prepared by the law firm Keker, Van Nest & Peters, which used 524 pages of documentary evidence and 42 witness interviews. That report concluded that Corpus violated the law “related to the performance of the sheriff’s duties … flagrant and repeated neglect of the sheriff’s duties … and obstruction of an investigation into the conduct of the sheriff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We stand firm in knowing that this process is one that will do right by the community and is the right thing to do,” Corzo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board’s vote on Tuesday brings San Mateo County into entirely uncharted territory, as no other charter county board has successfully voted to remove its sheriff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles County voters gave supervisors the authority to remove then-Sheriff Alex Villanueva in 2022, but the board didn’t need to use it as he lost re-election to a primary challenger. San Francisco’s board brought then-Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi to a vote of potential removal in 2012, but not enough supervisors voted to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County Attorney John D. Nibbelin said the county would officially notify Corpus of the board’s vote via email. She then has five calendar days to file a notice of appeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county, then, is obligated to offer her the option to pick one of “three neutral hearing officers with experience in public safety officer disciplinary matters” to oversee a formal removal hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once Corpus chooses her preferred officer to oversee her hearing, it could occur in private, if Corpus chooses to, within 30 to 60 calendar days after the officer has been notified. After that hearing is concluded, the hearing officer would have 45 days to submit a written advisory opinion to the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Thereafter, the board would have 30 days to act on that advisory opinion,” Nibbelin said, reiterating that Tuesday’s vote “would constitute a final decision of this board to remove the sheriff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

She didn’t, but most of her leadership team did. Many of them had been personally recruited by Corpus to join her, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12026356/lawsuit-alleges-continued-intimidation-retaliation-at-san-mateo-sheriffs-office\">several who have filed lawsuits\u003c/a> against Corpus and the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March, voters \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12029793/san-mateo-county-poised-historic-removal-sheriff-after-special-election\">passed the measure\u003c/a> by 84% to allow supervisors to remove Corpus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thomas “Tip” Mazzucco, one of three attorneys appearing on behalf of Corpus at Tuesday’s meeting, said the board shouldn’t have been able to reach the four votes needed to remove the sheriff. He said Supervisors Noelia Corzo and Ray Mueller, two former Corpus supporters who later championed the push to remove her, should have recused themselves from the vote because of “statements they have made.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sheriff Corpus is not resigning. She hasn’t run and hid from you. She’s not going anywhere,” Mazzucco said. “She will exhaust all her administrative remedies and then all her judicial remedies. This is political. It’s not practical. It’s become personal, and we will take this as far as we need to take it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Corzo said she looks forward to the day when all the information available to supervisors is made public, including transcripts from Corpus’ Skelly hearing, a routine, pre-disciplinary process for public employees in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That pre-removal conference was held behind closed doors, and the report from the county’s Chief Probation Officer John Keene has been kept confidential at Corpus’ request, according to the county. In it, \u003ca href=\"https://www.smcgov.org/ceo/news/san-mateo-county-supervisors-accept-recommendation-remove-sheriff-christina-corpus-office\">he stated\u003c/a> that he found Corpus “violated the for-cause provisions” and that her removal was warranted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides Cordell’s extensive report, the county also relied on an investigation prepared by the law firm Keker, Van Nest & Peters, which used 524 pages of documentary evidence and 42 witness interviews. That report concluded that Corpus violated the law “related to the performance of the sheriff’s duties … flagrant and repeated neglect of the sheriff’s duties … and obstruction of an investigation into the conduct of the sheriff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We stand firm in knowing that this process is one that will do right by the community and is the right thing to do,” Corzo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board’s vote on Tuesday brings San Mateo County into entirely uncharted territory, as no other charter county board has successfully voted to remove its sheriff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles County voters gave supervisors the authority to remove then-Sheriff Alex Villanueva in 2022, but the board didn’t need to use it as he lost re-election to a primary challenger. San Francisco’s board brought then-Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi to a vote of potential removal in 2012, but not enough supervisors voted to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County Attorney John D. Nibbelin said the county would officially notify Corpus of the board’s vote via email. She then has five calendar days to file a notice of appeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county, then, is obligated to offer her the option to pick one of “three neutral hearing officers with experience in public safety officer disciplinary matters” to oversee a formal removal hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once Corpus chooses her preferred officer to oversee her hearing, it could occur in private, if Corpus chooses to, within 30 to 60 calendar days after the officer has been notified. After that hearing is concluded, the hearing officer would have 45 days to submit a written advisory opinion to the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Thereafter, the board would have 30 days to act on that advisory opinion,” Nibbelin said, reiterating that Tuesday’s vote “would constitute a final decision of this board to remove the sheriff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And the appeals court, the state wrote, recognized that California planned to continue pursuing that claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California also contends that Breyer has jurisdiction to weigh in on how long the troops may stay deployed to L.A. because the appeals court decision was based on the facts on the ground weeks ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Although the Ninth Circuit held that, on the TRO record before it, conditions in and around the federal building in Los Angeles on June 6 and 7 likely satisfied Section 12406(3)’s factual predicate for federalization of National Guard units in the first place, the Ninth Circuit did not consider, nor did the parties present, the questions of how long such federalization is permissible in the face of changed circumstances or whether those federalized troops may be deployed in areas where those conditions never existed or have ceased to exist,” the state’s brief said.[aside postID=news_12045032 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/IMG_1050-2000x1500.jpg']California wants Breyer to allow the state to conduct “limited discovery,” including deposing the acting ICE field office director in L.A. and a U.S. Army major general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump brief argues that the district court has no jurisdiction over the Posse Comitatus claim, saying the 9th Circuit’s decision “logically forecloses” California’s claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration is arguing that since the appeals court allowed Trump to federalize the National Guard, those troops are allowed to enforce the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Given the Ninth Circuit’s finding, it would be illogical to hold that, although the President can call up the National Guard when he is unable ‘with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States,’ the Guard, once federalized, is forbidden from ‘execut[ing] the laws,’” the brief states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration also argues that the court shouldn’t take up the question of how long the troops will stay under federal control, saying that there’s no limit in federal law over how long the president can federalize the Guard and that the courts should defer to the president’s authority when considering the question. Attorneys for the Trump administration also argue that the question is premature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is no basis now to challenge the determination to initially set a 60-day timeframe on the duration of the deployment, particularly when the initial 60-day time frame has not yet elapsed and the actual duration is unknown at present,” the brief states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They end by arguing that the state has no persuasive reason to question the use of the military, which they insist is necessary for immigration enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breyer will now consider both sides’ arguments and rule in the coming days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

We want to have a safe and proud country,” he said. “We’re joined today by dozens of police officers, sheriffs and sheriff’s deputies from all across the country. My message to these law enforcement heroes is simple. With me in the White House, you once again have a president who will always have your back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Attorney General Rob Bonta said the grant cuts will have the opposite effect, especially when you combine them with the president’s budget proposal to cut billions of dollars more from local police departments and federal law enforcement agencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m shocked, like usual, but not surprised,” Bonta said. “This is an area where I think it’s really important to call out the just raging hypocrisy. … He says he’s gonna be a president for victims, a president of public safety, but then we have to look at what he’s actually doing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta said these cuts target “critical programs that help solve crime, that help victims heal, that help prevent gun violence, that address mental health and substance use disorder and provide treatment and care that support re-entry.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a written statement, the Justice Department said it is “focused on prosecuting criminals, getting illegal drugs off the streets, and protecting all Americans from violent crime. Discretionary funds that are not aligned with the administration’s priorities are subject to review and reallocation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the department didn’t answer KQED’s questions about why organizations like the Asian Women’s Shelter and Stop AAPI Hate were targeted, given that their missions appear to largely line up with those priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘Very short-sighted’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Bonta argues it’s obvious that these programs are being cut because of who they serve: communities of color and immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He called it “very short-sighted and very narrow — this lens that they’re trying to put on to focus on certain victims and be contemptuous of other victims.” Another California organization that lost funding, he noted, was Youth Alive!, an Oakland nonprofit that seeks to interrupt cycles of gun violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11959336\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11959336\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/230828-ROB-BONTA-AP-MJS-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"A man wearing a navy blue suit, white shirt and blue foulard tie speaks into a microphone.\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/230828-ROB-BONTA-AP-MJS-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/230828-ROB-BONTA-AP-MJS-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/230828-ROB-BONTA-AP-MJS-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/230828-ROB-BONTA-AP-MJS-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/230828-ROB-BONTA-AP-MJS-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/230828-ROB-BONTA-AP-MJS-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">California Attorney General Rob Bonta fields questions during a press conference on Monday, Aug. 28, 2023, in Los Angeles. \u003ccite>(Marcio Jose Sanchez/AP Photo)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“They go to the hospital bed of a shooting victim to help them heal and help them make decisions that don’t include retaliation in their raw, emotional, traumatized state,” he said. “Not only is it the right thing to do to help folks heal, to restore them to being productive members of our society and our community, but it also can prevent additional crimes, retaliatory crimes, a cycle of crime and violence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In some cities, \u003ca href=\"https://www.startribune.com/amid-allegations-of-illegal-practices-minneapolis-will-start-auditing-violence-interrupter-groups/601127173\">critics have called for more oversight\u003c/a> of \u003ca href=\"http://dsbystate?%3Aembed=y&%3Aiid=2&%3AisGuestRedirectFromVizportal=y\">these types of DOJ grants\u003c/a>, which have totaled $15.5 billion nationally since 2021.
