SHERIFF OUSTED: The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors removed Sheriff Christina Corpus from office in October 2025 due to allegations and findings that she misused public funds, retaliated against subordinates and violated conflict-of-interest laws, particularly concerning her chief of staff, Victor Aenlle. Following her removal, former Santa Clara County Sheriff Ken Binder was appointed as the new sheriff. He's the brother of Palo Alto police chief Andrew Binder.
