San Mateo Supervisors Demand Sheriff Corpus's Resignation Amid Scandal

The Board of Supervisors passed a no-confidence vote following a report alleging misconduct and corruption in Sheriff Christina Corpus's office.

An independent investigation led by retired judge LaDoris Cordell substantiated numerous allegations against Sheriff Corpus, including inappropriate relationships and retaliation.
The Board of Supervisors is exploring legal pathways to remove Corpus, including a potential charter amendment and involving the District Attorney and Attorney General.
Sheriff Corpus has denied all allegations, calling the investigation politically motivated and biased, and has refused to resign.
Corpus's controversial promotion of Victor Aenlle to assistant sheriff has raised legal questions and led to his restricted access to county facilities.
Public opinion is divided, with most speakers at the board meeting supporting Corpus's removal and a few defending her leadership.
