Los Angeles County Supervisor Hahn Votes on November 10 for Motion to Eradicate Sheriff Deputy Gangs, Urges Swifter Ban on Racist Symbols in Department
Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California — The office of Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn said on November 10 that Hahn voted that day for a motion aimed at eradicating deputy gangs in the Sheriff Department, and urged swifter action to ban racist symbols within the department.
The motion, brought by Supervisor Holly Mitchell, asks the Sheriff, in coordination with County Counsel, the Office of Inspector General and the Sheriff Civilian Oversight Commission, to report back in writing in 120 days with a comprehensive framework and implementation plan, with milestones, responsible parties and dates certain, for identifying and naming deputy gangs, cliques and secret subgroups, according to the motion text published by the county.
The motion also asks the Sheriff and County Counsel to jointly provide the Board a confidential memorandum in 120 days. Its stated background includes a 2024 report that deputies at the Lakewood station shared a common tattoo, a spade with the number 13, and a Norwalk station group that used a logo featuring Nazi-like imagery.
On September 15, the Board directed the county chief executive, with the Sheriff, County Counsel and employee relations officials, to review which parts of the motion would require talks with deputy labor associations and to report back in 30 days, and consideration of the directives was delayed. Mitchell was the lone dissenter in both votes.
Sheriff Robert Luna told the Board in September that he maintains a zero tolerance policy and meets every new recruit class to reinforce it.
