The OC Evidence Scandal

Clip: Season 10 Episode 7 | 3m 51sVideo has Closed Captions

This evidence scandal is only the latest of a string of scandals in Orange County.

A scandal involving the handling of evidence by the Orange County Sheriff’s Department is widening. The department and investigators from the Orange County District Attorney’s Office are reviewing 22,000 cases to see if evidence was appropriately booked. An internal audit in 2018 and a second one in 2019 found some deputies did not book evidence on time or not at all and then lied about it.
