County to run commuter train from Los Angeles to San Diego

Los Angeles supervisors vote 3 to 2 to buy eight old railroad cars for a county financed commuter train linking San Diego and LA. Cost $198,000 plus refurbishing, with total outlay to come from $4.15 million in revenue sharing funds. The plan envisions about 400 daily riders, an RTD Amtrak joint operation, and shuttle buses at stops yet to be chosen.

Grand Jury declines to review Sperl case after dismissal of Ward proposal

Los Angeles County Grand Jury rejected Supervisor Baxter Ward's call to review the district attorney office handling of the Sperl prosecution. Sperl, ousted a year ago after a felonious conduct conviction, faced allegations of using deputy marshals as volunteers for a fundraiser and driving James Hayes and staff during his campaign. Ward urged Hayes testify and accused Dist Atty Joseph Busch of selective enforcement and splitting Hayes from the Sperl case.
