Overview

• The civil grand jury charged Corpus on June 27 with one count of conflict of interest and three counts of retaliation for her dealings with Victor Aenlle and punitive actions against deputies.
• Allegations include hiring and supervising her close associate Victor Aenlle without disclosure and retaliatory personnel moves against Assistant Sheriff Ryan Monaghan, Captain Brian Philip and Deputy Carlos Tapia.
• The Board of Supervisors invoked Measure A on June 24 with a unanimous vote to remove her by a four-fifths majority, though she remains in office pending legal proceedings.
• A month-long hearing advised by the District Attorney's Office heard testimony from 32 witnesses under oath, including Corpus herself.
• Corpus denies wrongdoing and refuses to resign, framing the process as politically motivated as she prepares her defense for the July 15 hearing in San Mateo County Superior Court.
