OPENING 
LETTER 
FROM 
PAUL 
TANAKA 

(Gardena, CA)- Today, 
former Undersheriff 
Paul Tanaka issued 
the following letter to 
the public:

 After dedicating 
three decades of my 
life to public safety, 
I have suffered 

overwhelming 
character attacks over 
the last two years by nameless “sources” who have continuously 
falsified accounts of my behavior and my leadership for their own 
self-purpose and notoriety. I have always believed that the focus of 
law enforcement officials should remain on public safety and the 
community rather than combating the latest news story, however, 
I can no longer remain quiet as others continue to paint fiction 
and call it truth. I would like to Set the Record Straight regarding 
my character and my record once and for all. 

First and foremost, during my 33 years in law enforcement I 
have never condoned nor encouraged excessive force or deputy 
misconduct. In fact, in the past I have been highlighted as a 
strict no-nonsense disciplinarian. It wasn’t until there were talks 
throughout the Department that I may run for Sheriff that these 
accusations began. Many of my accusers feared the standard of 
accountability they would be held to should I become Sheriff. 
Throughout my career, I have always demanded our Department 
employees, particularly high-ranking executives, perform the 
duties and tasks the people of Los Angeles County pay them for, 
and expect from us, with no exception. 

Some of my strongest attacks come from the Citizen’s Commission 
on Jail Violence regarding excessive force in the jails. In the report, 
the Commission claims that I encouraged a culture of violence in 
the jails, which led to deputies breaking the law and using excessive 
force on inmates. Although the Commission made some worthy 
recommendations for jail reform, including the installation of 
cameras throughout jail dorms/hallways and the implementation 
of a third-party Inspector General, I fundamentally disagree with 
the Commission’s findings as they pertain to me and my character 
for a variety of reasons. 

First, during the period of time the investigation into the Men’s 
Central Jail took place (2008-2010), I was not in charge of the jails 
but was Assistant Sheriff in charge of Patrol, Detective Division, 
Homeland Security and the Department’s multi-billion dollar 
budget. I had zero command over the jails. Second, those who 
spoke against my character before the Commission weren’t under 
oath and were not cross-examined; meaning there was no attempt 
by the Commission to determine if those individuals were telling 
the truth. Lastly, those who had direct command over the jails 
during that time, Chief Dennis Burns and Assistant Sheriff Mark 
Cavanaugh, never appeared before the Commission to explain 
their lack of leadership or involvement in the mismanagement of 
jail deputies. 

Furthermore, an online publication has written countless stories 
about a secret patio that was supposedly reserved for a secret circle 
of department employees that had to possess “challenge coins” 
in order to gain entrance. In addition, this same publication has 
also alleged that those who donated to my Mayoral campaign 
would then be promoted in the Department. First, the process 
for promotion in the Sheriff¹s Department is an uncompromising 
and strictly defined process. Promotions are based on a set of 
qualifications determined by the Department and the County. In 
addition, promotions to Lieutenant and higher were appointed 
solely by the Sheriff. No one who has ever donated to my City 
Council campaign has ever been given special treatment. Period. 
Second, the employee patio that was mentioned is an open air, outdoor 
patio with poles that support its roof. It is open to all civilian 
and sworn employees and was commonly used for cigarette 
breaks, barbecues, meetings, etc. The coins they referred to were 
created, passed out and sold by Chief Buddy Goldman and retired 
Captain Joe Gonzales. To my knowledge, they were nothing more 
than a souvenir item anyone in the department could obtain. 

Lastly, and perhaps most important, is my involvement in the 
Anthony Brown case. When the indictments were first released, 
I refrained from going into details about my involvement because 
the investigation is ongoing, and out of respect for the process, I 
believed these matters should be handled in the courts and not 
in the press. In addition, because of the ongoing nature of these 
matters, I have been told that I will be subpoenaed as a witness 
in the upcoming obstruction trial and therefore think it is 
inappropriate for me to make further public statements on this 
matter. However, after multiple attacks by opponents and media 
outlets who have used my silence out of respect for the process as 
an admission of guilt, I will once again reiterate what I can. 

I have been interviewed by the FBI and I have testified before 
the grand jury regarding my knowledge and involvement in this 
matter. That being said, with regard to inmate Anthony Brown, 
the Sheriff made two broad directives to ensure the safety of 
Brown and to investigate the smuggling of a cellphone into the 
jails. Both of which were direct orders and, to my knowledge, were 
made in good faith and were not illegal. While I was involved 
in some aspects of the implementation of these orders, I was not 
involved in, nor had knowledge of other aspects and my name was 
sometimes used without my knowledge or consent because of my 
position. 

I hope these facts clarified some of the noise that has been 
generated about my character and history. 

I have served the people of Los Angeles County for 33 years as 
a public safety official. During that time, I led the department’s 
War on Gangs, successfully managed the department’s multi-
billion dollar budget for more than a decade and decreased crime 
throughout the county. In addition as the Mayor of Gardena, 
with the help of my colleagues on the dais, I took a city with a five 
million dollar deficit and turned it into a 10 million dollar surplus. 
Gardena has also experienced its lowest crime rates in over 50 
years, particularly violent crime. In addition, our city’s economic 
vitality has soared throughout the course of my leadership. I have 
dedicated my life to serving others and I look forward to doing so 
as Sheriff of Los Angeles County. 

Sincerely, 

/s/ Paul Tanaka

THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that BARBARA B.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the 
Independent Administration of Estates Act . (This authority will allow

the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested

action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless

cause why the court should not grant the authority. 

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 
03/10/14 at 8:30AM in Dept. 11 located at 111 N. HILL ST., LOS 
ANGELES, CA 90012 

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at 

the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the 

court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your 
attorney. 

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, 

you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal 

representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four 

months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal 
representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate 

Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you 
of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. 

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as 

a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in 

California law. 

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person 
interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special 
Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of 

estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code 
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the 

court clerk.
