Sheriff Christina Corpus of San Mateo County is embroiled in a scandal following indictments by a civil grand jury. She faces accusations of three counts of retaliation against former employees and one conflict of interest charge related to her hiring practices. Notably, testimony from numerous witnesses led to allegations of creating a toxic work environment and undermining staff loyalty. The conflict of interest charge focuses on her relationship with Victor Aenlle, who was controversially hired for a position while supposedly engaged in an affair with Corpus. Her actions have prompted significant scrutiny and a fierce backlash from within her department.
The conflict of interest allegation pertains to the hiring and supervision of former Executive Director of Administration, Victor Aenlle, with whom she had a close personal relationship.
Assistant Sheriff Ryan Monaghan was fired last September, allegedly over his participation in the investigation against Corpus. Corpus allegedly told Monaghan he was being let go because he was not "loyal."
