PORT OF L.A. POLICE CHIEF TO BE ARRESTED ON CORRUPTION CHARGES
Some highlights include:
"The Port of Los Angeles has been best known for union labor strife over the last year, but the scandal that is blowing up over the arrest of Chief of Port Police Ronald Jerome Boyd on federal bribery, kickback, and tax fraud charges may set a new high for port turmoil.
Chief Boyd, 57, is a 30-year law enforcement veteran who was just promoted in January to lead the port’s homeland security and information technology operations. Since becoming chief in 2004, he has overseen the 204 sworn officers who police 43 miles of waterfront.
But on May 31, Boyd agreed to surrender to federal agents next week on 16 counts for charges ranging from kickbacks, wire fraud, tax evasion, and a dozen other federal corruption charges, according to Daniel J. O’Brien, an assistant U.S. attorney in the Public Corruption and Civil Rights Section."
But all these guys have four stars on their collars...they can't possibly be corrupt!
