A judge has ordered the Los Angles County Sheriff's Department to"cease searching any and all computers seized" from the Metro Inspector General's office.
"I think what he's saying is the Sheriff's Department needs to pause part of the investigation," said Loyola Law Professor Jessica Levinson. Ryan has scheduled a hearing for next week, demanding answers from the department. The Sheriff and deputies will need to justify how and why the warrant was secured as well as why key details were kept from Judge Craig Richman, who signed the warrant.
The probe was focused on a contract awarded by Metro to the Peace Over Violence organization for the operation of a sexual-harassment hotline, according to Kuehl. As a member of the Board of Supervisors, Kuehl sits on Metro's Board of Directors.
