This week on the pod, San Diego County Sheriff Kelly Martinez sat down with hosts Scott Lewis, Andrea Lopez-Villafaña and Jakob McWhinney.
The crew asked the sheriff all about the jail death crisis that’s taken the lives of so many and local law enforcement’s relationship with immigration agencies.
Sheriff Martinez made a lot of headlines last year after she refused to follow a policy approved by the Board of Supervisors that would have prevented her department from working with immigration agents. She explained why she made that call and how she views her department’s role in immigration enforcement.
We also learned about the impact of Proposition 36 county jails. The measure was overwhelmingly approved by voters in November and promised to crack down on theft and drug use. With Proposition 36-related arrests on the rise, it looks to be doing just that.
