In a letter made public, Capt. Frank Dal Porto expressed the command staff's unanimous no confidence vote in Sheriff Christina Corpus, urging her and the Undersheriff to resign immediately. He stated this request must be taken seriously to move forward effectively, reflecting a significant loss of trust and a critical moment for the Sheriff's Office.
An independent report released by the county accused Sheriff Corpus of serious misconduct, including retaliatory actions, abuse of power, and using inappropriate language. The extensive investigation, commissioned by county supervisors, also highlighted problematic relationships within her executive team, showing a troubling trend of behavior that has shaken the integrity of the Sheriff's Office.
The allegations surfaced after an extensive investigation into the Sheriff's conduct, detailing claims of racially charged language and a romantic involvement with Chief of Staff Victor Aenlle, which raises ethical concerns about the leadership’s capacity to perform fairly and without bias in their roles.
Judge Cordell noted that the executive team had improperly suppressed rifles, which presents legal concerns regarding weapon management within law enforcement. This allegation is particularly alarming as it highlights deeper issues of accountability and the adherence to the laws that peace officers are sworn to uphold.
