<p>After the CEO of Los Angeles County, Sachi Hamai, announced a proposed budget that would cut roughly $145.4 million for police and jettison six units from the Los Angeles Sheriff&#8217;s Department, Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva blasted her, asserting,  “The CEO and the Board have embraced the &#8216;Defund the Police&#8217; movement and are cynically hiding behind accounting maneuvers.”</p>
<p>Villanueva stated, &#8220;The budget cuts are targeted specifically to hurt public safety while sparing virtually every other function of county government from any reductions. These cuts come at a time when jails were de-populated of over five thousand inmates in order to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. Now that restrictions are lifting, violent crimes, such as murder, are on the rise across the County. Now is not the time to cut vital law enforcement services, that should be the last thing cut,” as <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/los-angeles-law-enforcement-police-budget-cuts-special-victims-bureau">Fox News</a> noted.</p>
