Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva sat down with The Times for an interview. His answers suggest that the political tension at the highest levels of county government won’t quickly fade.
over who has the ultimate authority over personnel decisions at the Sheriff’s Department.
I am actually assuming the proper role of the sheriff, which is to run the Sheriff’s Department. I don’t tell the board how to do their jobs, and I don’t think they have either the legal authority or right to dictate how I, as an elected official and the sheriff, run the Sheriff’s Department. That’s why the voters elected me and put me in office.
They’ve made it pretty antagonistic, and I’m going to be the better man and hold my head high and keep doing my job. Politically, things could have been smoother. I think my timing on the Mandoyan case, I could have put other cases ahead of his. However, we still would have resolved it with the same outcome. I don’t think it would have made a difference.
You said Mary Wickham, the county counsel who is on the opposing side in the Mandoyan case, has “gone rogue.” What do you mean by that?
