County audits flag sheriff locks as questionable
An audit report says deputies installed locks at 41 locations over four years, seven outside the county, costing about 2750 dollars. It notes two outside the county were at Sheriff Pitchess's sons’ homes due to threats, while five installations were unauthorized. The team urges discipline for those five and cites potential nonrecovery of costs, possible bias, and weak time accounting. It also covers a separate inquiry into a drug overdose transport with no negligence found. A murder trial review for Kenneth Golledge begins in Long Beach.
