Sheriff warns of forces driving Isla Vista unrest
Santa Barbara County Sheriff James Webster told the President's Commission on Campus Unrest that there are forces in Isla Vista inciting total revolution. He noted a 129 percent rise in major crimes and 200 percent in narcotics offenses, with three major riots in five months costing about 600000. He said deputies faced accusations of unnecessary force and urged a state attorney general investigation. David Gardner of UC Santa Barbara framed campus unrest as a national crisis needing long term reform.
