  • Kraut Memo Subpoenaed by LAPD
    LAPD TO SEEK D.A. MEMOS DETAILING PEREZ WARNINGS Article from: Daily News (Los Angeles, CA) Article date: March 20, 2000 Byline: Beth Barrett, Rick Orlov and Greg Gittrich Staff Writers LAPD officials will formally request today District Attorney documents detailing a prosecutor's warnings about rogue cop Rafael Perez's dishonesty more than a year before the Rampart Division scandal was uncovered, sources said Sunday. The request comes in response to disclosures, reported by the Daily News on Sunday, that Deputy District Attorney Michael Kraut raised serious questions in 1997 after two unrelated drug cases involving Perez, now the central figure in the largest police corruption scandal in city history, were dismissed. Despite Kraut's efforts to expose Perez, senior prosecutors in the District Attorney's Office did not inform LAPD officials of the deputy district attorney's suspicions about Perez until after the officer was arrested on cocaine theft charges in August 1998, officials said. ``Obviously we are quite concerned about these revelations,'' said LAPD Cmdr. David Kalish, a spokesman for the department. The District Attorney's Office declined to comment Sunday about the LAPD request for information, saying it had not been formally received. The disclosure that the District Attorney's Office failed to immediately tell the Los Angeles Police Department about Kraut's suspicions heightened concern among several city officials who already had expressed discomfort about the course of the ongoing police corruption probe. ``We need to get more information, and we need more cooperation among all officials,'' City Council President John Ferraro said. Ferraro said if Kraut did warn his superiors in writing about Perez, ``then we should have been told about it.'' Councilman Mark Ridley-Thomas said the report fuels his concerns about the District Attorney's investigation of the Rampart scandal.
