The LA Podcast
July 19, 2018 Episode 18

Sheriff’s deputies in Compton are accused of belonging to a secret gang within the department that encourages aggressive police tactics… and it wouldn’t be the first time for the LA County Sheriff’s Department. To talk about gang culture in LASD, we brought in LA Times reporter MAYA LAU, who first broke the Compton story, and JAMES SEXTON, a former deputy who blew the whistle on misconduct in the department.
