This is a great example of the “good ol boy” network.
This is ridicoulous and indefensable. Period.

How were they ignored? All we know is that one agency basically took over for another agency, and the existing employees were able to stay on…and even then, they made them go through a process that included polygraph tests. We do not know what the circumstances were behind the supposed offenses that they were “guilty” of when working for the LA County department. We don’t know how many of them were guilty (was it one or two people), nor do we know how long ago these offenses occurred (could have been 20+ years, with exemplary service since then), and we don’t know whether or not they were already punished and what that punishment entailed.
Are you going to tell me that people who were fired from a tech company, for instance, should NEVER be allowed to work for a tech company again, even if they were punished and/or had proven themselves over time?
