Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva has been accused of trying to cover up the actions of Los Angeles sheriffs deputies, who allegedly took illicit photos of the Kobe Bryant crash site, after Villanueva received a complaint that a sheriff’s deputy was showing off graphic photos of the tragedy at a local bar. 

According to NBC News, Villanueva has admitted to ordering deputies to delete graphic photos of the crash, which claimed the lives of eight people including the former Lakers basketball star’s 13-year-old daughter.
