LA County Sheriffs are worse.
Lee Baca was a real piece of work.
I got the hood (of the sheriff’s car) treatment once from L.A. Sheriffs.
A car load of drunken party guys picked me up hitchhiking and they got pulled over, when the sheriffs started looking like they were going to administer a drunk test on the driver I jumped out to make a scene as a distraction, and I started acting belligerent and asking for probable cause and so on.
It worked, by the time they got through red-necking me and running a check they had forgotten about the driver and he had returned to the car, we left without so much as the original ticket.
