In a letter to Sheriff Alex Villanueva, Los Angeles County Inspector General Max Hunstman claimed his office has compiled a list of 41 deputies who are members of “gang-like” organizations, including the Banditos and the Executioners. However, the letter didn’t name any deputies. The sheriff’s Department stated that Huntsman had “failed” to give any evidence or provide new information. The statement stated that Huntsman had made another attempt to discredit the organisation through misrepresentation and omission.
