L.A. County orders the deputy re-hired by Sheriff Villanueva after allegations of domestic abuse to turn in his gun and badge.
Deputy Caren Carl Mandoyan, left, with Sheriff Alex Villanueva and Assistant Sheriff Tim Murakami, was rehired after allegations of domestic abuse and stalking.
Prosecutors investigated the woman’s claims and looked at video evidence in the case but declined to charge Mandoyan with intimate partner violence. Neither Mandoyan nor a lawyer who represented him after his dismissal, Michael Goldfeder, responded to requests for comment on Sunday. Naimo said on Sunday that he consulted with the county counsel before sending the letter and had copied the Board of Supervisors. He declined to comment further.
