Proceedings in the civil grand jury's accusation against fired San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus, which could result in a verdict prohibiting her from ever holding public office again, are on pause until next year, a prosecutor said. That's in order for some of her other court battles, specifically the ones where she's fighting her firing, to be resolved, said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. Corpus' attorneys have been fighting her firing in front of two judges, federal Judge Vince Chhabria and San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Nina Shapirshteyn.

The report revealed that Santa Clara County's child welfare agency has consistently failed to fulfill its commitments to improve care for older youth, indicating serious leadership doubts.

The accusation includes one count of conflict of interest and three counts of retaliation against Sheriff Christina Corpus, potentially leading to her removal from office.
