"California Attorney General Rob Bonta stated, 'What the Sheriff says and what he does are often two different things. Today's decision by the California Supreme Court reins in the destabilizing actions of a rogue Sheriff, prohibiting him from continuing this investigation while our litigation continues.'"
"Sheriff Chad Bianco defended his investigation, claiming it was approved by a county judge, and noted that he paused the probe due to mounting legal challenges."
The California Supreme Court ordered Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco to pause his investigation into election fraud allegations regarding the 2025 election ballots. This decision follows a request from Attorney General Rob Bonta and a voting rights group's challenge against the sheriff's actions. Bianco had seized over 1,000 boxes of election materials based on a complaint about ballot counting, which local officials deemed unfounded. Bonta emphasized the importance of the court's order to prevent further destabilizing actions by the sheriff during ongoing litigation.
