San Mateo County supervisors will meet Wednesday and discuss a call for Sheriff Christina Corpus to resign following the release of a scathing independent report detailing allegations against her office. The 400-page report is the findings of an investigation by retired Judge Ladoris Cordell and includes what she says is evidence of abuse by the sheriff’s office and staff. The report includes accusations that range from employee retaliation to overstepping authority. It goes on to allege lies, secrecy, and intimidation by the sheriff’s administration. The San Mateo County Deputy Sheriff’s Association held a news briefing Wednesday ahead of the supervisors’ meeting and called on the board to ask for Corpus’ resignation. The union said it has no confidence at this time in the sheriff’s ability to lead. Union leaders in the news briefing also discussed the arrest of its president and claimed it was whistleblower retaliation. Corpus on Tuesday said the arrest of Carlos Tapia on suspicion of fraud had nothing to do with the investigation into allegations against her office. “I am shocked by the outright slander by two members of the board. These are people who have a vendetta against me. I am disgusted at how low these people will go,” Corpus said late Tuesday after Supervisors Noelia Corzo and Ray Mueller presented Cordell’s report during a news briefing. “These allegations are absolutely not true.” In an exclusive interview with NBC Bay Area on Tuesday, Corpus said Cordell’s report itself is biased. The sheriff also said she has not seen the report and that Cordell did not give her adequate time to answer questions. Corpus said she is not going anywhere and does not plan to resign.
