Brown Scores
Chief, Sheriff
‘By CARL GREENBERG
Examiner Political Editor
SACRAMENTO—Gov, Brown unleashed an
angry and blistering attack on. Los Angeles Police
' Chief Parker and Sheriff Pitchess Friday. They
aren’t doing. a good law enforcement job, he
asserted.
; Later, in a TV appearance, Brown, former
| Attorney General, got even tougher, charging. the
pir has “the worst law enforcement record in the
entire state” and I feel it’s high tine the people of
Los Angeles know where the fault lies . . .” He as-
serted Los Angeles City “is a prime place for crime”
and: ; ‘ ~~
“There are more arrests
more refusals. to prosecute hy
jthe District Attorney in the
\City of Los Angeles than a
‘other city in our State.” -
- And, charged the Governor,
who: identified Parker and
Pitchess as “political peace
officers:”
“These are the people
where we have seen the high-
est crime rate in the entire
State of California go up and
up without any decrease
whatsoever over a period of
the last eight or nine years.”
The Governor clearly was
irritated at his news confer-
ence over criticism of him
voiced by Parker and Pitchess
for commuting to life impris-
onment without possibility of
parole Erwin M. “Machine
Gun” Walker, killer of State
Highway Patrolman Loren
Roosevelt in Los Angeles.
Walker had been condemned
to die.
He charged a good job of
jaw enforcement in the City
‘and County of Los Angeles
“definitely” is not being done,
but carefully made clear. he
was excluding the police de-:
partments of other incorpo-
rated cities in the County. 4
n contrast, he said, law
erfforcement is “excellent”.
