San Mateo County supervisors have proposed a historic move to remove Sheriff Christina Corpus via a charter amendment and concurrent recall vote, citing "unprecedented complaints" about her lack of transparency and accountability.
Independent investigations into Corpus’s administration revealed significant issues, including "lies, secrecy, intimidation, retaliation, conflicts of interest, and abuses of authority," contrasting with the promises she made to voters.
Despite increasing pressure from state and federal lawmakers for her resignation, Corpus has remained defiant and stated that she will not resign from her position.
The attempted recall of a sheriff in California is a rare event as such initiatives typically fail before reaching the ballot, with many sheriffs choosing to resign instead.
