A former captain with the Santa Clara County sheriff's office has been found guilty in connection with a bribery scheme involving concealed weapon permits, prosecutors said Wednesday.According to District Attorney Jeff Rosen's office, a jury convicted 47-year-old James Jensen of felony bribery and conspiracy. Jensen faces a maximum sentence of four years in state prison.
The conspirators were set to donate another $45,000 when the DA's office served a search warrant on the sheriff's office in August 2019, prosecutors said.According to evidence presented at trial, Jensen negotiated the number of CCW permits to be issued, shepherded the applications and got four applications approved by Smith before the investigation was revealed. Meanwhile, virtually all first-time concealed weapons permit applications by the public in 2018 and 2019 were ignored.
