The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors has voted unanimously to initiate the removal of Sheriff Christina Corpus, following allegations from an independent report detailing misconduct, corruption, and inappropriate relationships.

Despite the accusations, Corpus, the first Latina sheriff in the county's history, asserts her innocence, claiming that crime rates are down and that she is being unfairly targeted.
