Michael Ramos, previously the district attorney for San Bernardino County, has been suspended for six months for allegedly destroying evidence linked to a corruption case from 2017. This case involved allegations against three county officials and a developer who were indicted for participating in a bribery scheme. Although three defendants were acquitted, lawsuits against Ramos claimed misconduct during the case. A judge found Ramos failed in his duty to preserve evidence, leading to significant legal repercussions for his actions.
"It is shocking that any lawyer, particularly one serving as District Attorney, would act in 'bad faith' and destroy evidence relevant to an ongoing investigation."
