ButВ the oversight bodies вЂњneed access to relevant information,вЂќ he said, вЂњand the recent lack of access to sheriffвЂ™s department documents has impeded their ability to perform their core function.вЂќДЄ series of tense exchanges between sheriffвЂ™s department representatives and Inspector General Huntsman atВ last ThursdayвЂ™s COC meeting вЂ“ followed byВ an angry post-meeting letter from Sheriff VillanuevaВ вЂ“В seemed to make the case that the time for subpoena power had indeed arrived.ДЄlso, since the board already voted to give this same power to the soon-to-be-launched Probation Oversight Commission, giving the power to compel the COC was expected. вЂњThe county has made great strides in attempting to reform the sheriffвЂ™s department over the years,вЂќ said Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas who together with Supervisor Sheila Kuehl co-authored the motion to createВ the needed amendment to the county ordinance governing the COC. Then, 30 days after vote two, subpoena powerВ for the OIG willВ go live.ДЇor a number of years, the board was against giving this authority to any of the various oversight bodies it has created.Д«ut given the power struggles that have occurred this year between the sheriff and the board-and also between the LASDВ and the combined oversight entities of the COC and Inspector General Max Huntsman-on Tuesday afternoon,В all five board members appeared to feelВ the time had arrivedВ for a new tool to be added to the oversight toolbox. Since this greater authorityВ requires the amendment of a county ordinance, the decision will be voted on one more time, mostВ likelyВ at next weekвЂ™s board meeting. on Tuesday, January 21, 2020, the LA County Supervisors votedВ to give subpoena power to the Civilian Oversight Commission for the Los Angeles County SheriffвЂ™s Department, via the countyвЂ™s Inspector General, which is the COCвЂ™s investigative arm.
