US Attorney indicts two Men’s Central jail deputies On Friday the U.S. Attorney’s office announced an indictment alleging that two deputies illegally used force on an inmate in 2009, and then lied about the incident in their reports. The process to relieve him and the second indicted deputy of duty without pay began Friday. Los Angeles County Sheriff John Scott said, “As I stated when I took office last week, my number one priority is to ensure that the Department continues the substantial progress it has made in reforming and improving our jail system and culture. Although today’s indictment should not be taken as a reflection of the outstanding work that the overwhelming majority of deputies perform every day, it does underscore that everyone in this Department should and will be held accountable for their actions. Abuse of authority will not be tolerated.”
