    Lawsuit Prompts Sheriff’s Department To Break-Up With Facebook

Lawsuit Prompts Sheriff’s Department To Break-Up With Facebook

The San Diego Sheriff's Department has seemingly kissed its Facebook page good bye after an Oceanside gun parts dealer filed a lawsuit against the agency in the Southern District federal court.

Sources close to the case says it all started with a couple, less-than-flattering comments about Sheriff Bill Gore; the plaintiff said not only were his remarks deleted, the department banned him from posting anything else on their Facebook wall.

His attorney has alleged that both these actions have violated his client's right to free speech.  Their argument is simple-  social media platforms are the new "town hall meetings".   All citizens …

It's been no great secret that the San Diego Police Department has a staffing problem on its hands.  One, more and more officers are approaching retirement age.   Two, newly trained rookies are being wooed to smaller departments in the county as soon as they are out of the police academy.

The San Diego Sheriff's and the National City PD are among those who are offering signing bonuses and better pay.

Today, sources close to the SDPD says their already bad problem seems to have taken a turn for the worse.

    The Hemp Bracelet, The Hash Bust And The Trip To San Diego Jail

The Hemp Bracelet, The Hash Bust And The Trip To San Diego Jail

Medical marijuana activists say it all started with a hemp bracelet.

In 2013, an delivery driver for a local marijuana dispensary service was pulled over by the San Diego Sheriff's Department due to an issue with one of his tail lights.  And at the time the deputy was asking him for his license, insurance and registration, he saw the driver was wearing a hemp bracelet.

That one visual flicker somehow spawned a further investigation, and after deputies conducted a surveillance operation, they decided to move in for a bust.

They eventually conducted a raid on the man's home, where they found hash, …

More California Jails Saying No To ICE Holds

San Diego Jails are the latest to say they won't honor immigration holds
Immigration rights advocates are calling San Diego Sheriff Bill Gore's latest announcement a win.  As of late last week, he's joined a growing number of other counties throughout the state who are no longer detaining inmates simply because of their immigration status.

Every time a person is arrested their information is run through a national database. If Immigration Customs and Enforcement determines the defendant may not be in the country legally they'll issue a hold and ask the jail to hold this person a few extra days so …
