    November 17, 2015 The Honorable Loretta E. Lynch Attorney General of the United States United States Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530‐0001 RE: REQUEST FOR FEDERAL INVESTIGATION IN ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Dear Attorney General Lynch: We the undersigned share a firm belief in our criminal justice system and its overall ability to produce fair and reliable results. Compelling evidence of pervasive police and prosecutorial misconduct in Orange County, however, has caused us grave concern. We write to urge the Department of Justice to initiate an investigation into the actions of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department (“OCSD”) and the Orange County District Attorney’s Office (“OCDA”) in connection with the use of jailhouse informants and the concealment of informant‐related evidence. EVIDENCE OF MISCONDUCT IN ORANGE COUNTY: AN OVERVIEW On September 30, 2015, The New York Times published an editorial addressing the situation in Orange County, which stated, in part: In a scheme that may go back as far as 30 years, prosecutors and the county sheriff’s department have elicited illegal jailhouse confessions, failed to turn over evidence that is favorable to defendants and lied repeatedly in court about what they did . Among other things, the defense argued, deputies intentionally placed informants in cells next to defendants facing trial . and hid that fact. The informants, some of whom faced life sentences for their own crimes, were promised reduced sentences or cash payouts in exchange for drawing out confessions or other incriminating evidence from the defendants. This practice is prohibited once someone has been charged with a crime.
