Choice of Jack Anderson as interim leader is
accepted. Board will search for a permanent
replacement.
By Christian Berthelsen and Stuart Pfeifer,
Los Angeles Times Staff Writers
January 16, 2008
Orange County supervisors accepted outgoing
Sheriff Michael S. Carona's hand-picked
successor as the new acting head of the law
enforcement agency on Tuesday, setting aside
concerns that the appointment was improper
and that political calculations played a
role in the selection.
Jack Anderson, in an interview with The
Times on Tuesday, said he planned to
campaign for the office in 2010, and in
comments appearing in a conservative
political blog, Carona said he tapped
Anderson as interim leader in order to give
him a leg up in the race. Anderson is an
officer in the Orange County Republican
Party
Supervisors now find themselves in the
delicate position of appointing someone to a
position that's normally determined by
voters.
Board Chairman John Moorlach welcomed
Anderson to the job, saying that despite the
questions over whether the succession had
been handled properly, he was supporting
Anderson "in the interests of moving
forward."
In his final hours in office, Carona demoted
Undersheriff Jo Ann Galisky, fired another
member of the command staff and then
appointed Anderson second in command,
putting him in line to become acting
sheriff.
Under state law, the successor in the event
of the sheriff's resignation is the
department's undersheriff. Anderson, though,
does not meet county requirements to be the
undersheriff.
Carona, facing federal felony charges that
he sought to enrich himself, his wife and
his former mistress by trading official
favors for cash and gifts, stepped down
Monday. All three have pleaded not guilty.
In interviews, supervisors and their top
aides said they were troubled by the
appearance of the sheriff's last-minute
reshuffling of the department command staff.
"It's a legitimate question," Supervisor
Chris Norby said. "I think the board is
concerned about that."
Still, they said they wanted to instead
focus on finding a candidate to serve the
remainder of Carona's term, and that they
trusted Anderson's ability to lead the
department in the short term.
Holding the job for now, supervisors and
aides said, would not give Anderson an
advantage in being named the permanent
replacement.
Anderson, 47, has spent 21 years with the
department and most recently served as
operations commander, overseeing more than
1,000 employees, including patrol deputies
in 12 stations and the department's SWAT and
hostage negotiations teams.
In brief remarks to the board, Anderson said
he was honored to hold the interim position
and said he supported several initiatives
underway at the department, including
establishing a civilian review board to
examine law enforcement incidents involving
the use of force -- an effort that Moorlach
said would be a litmus test for supervisors'
approval of the permanent replacement.
"The business of the Sheriff's Department
will continue uninterrupted," Anderson said.
As Anderson sat for interviews on his first
day as acting sheriff, he was accompanied
not by aides from the Sheriff's Department
but by Adam Probolsky, a member of the
county GOP's executive committee, who handed
out a list of Anderson's references that
included state Senate Republican leader Dick
Ackerman of Irvine. Probolsky said he was
there in his role as a Sheriff's Department
volunteer.
Anderson said he had no immediate plans to
change department policies and would
continue to issue concealed-weapons permits
to private citizens as Carona did. He said
he did not plan to take any immediate steps
to improve morale in the department because
he did not believe deputies' morale had been
affected by their former leader's criminal
indictment.
"The impact of what has been going on with
Mike Carona has been somewhat separate from
the rank and file," Anderson said. "Those
people do their job every day and are not
impacted. They read the newspaper. It's
disturbing sometimes, but they kept it in
perspective and continued to be
professionals. The day-to-day operations
have not been impacted with regard to what's
been happening with Mike Carona."
Anderson said he would ask supervisors to
appoint him sheriff and that he intended to
campaign for the job in 2010, whether or not
the supervisors appoint him to fill out
Carona's term. He said his experience with
the department made him the best candidate
for the job.
"I worked my way up through the ranks of
this department. I have an intimate
understanding of the department and will be
able to best serve the citizens of Orange
County as a result of that," he said.
Board members talked about establishing a
process to vet candidates for a permanent
replacement but were barred from taking
official action because Carona's resignation
Monday did not give them enough time to
place the issue on the agenda, as required
by law.
In comments in the blog Red County
www.redcounty.com late Monday, Carona acknowledged appointing Anderson to
the position because he wanted Anderson to replace him permanently.
"Jack wanted to run for sheriff in 2010, and he and I have had those
conversations," Carona was quoted as saying. "I would have been very supportive
of him."
Carona said in the blog that he was not able to elevate Anderson to undersheriff
because Anderson did not have the minimum years of experience in subordinate
positions to qualify.
The maneuvers did not sit well with Carona's political opponents and Democrats.
Bill Hunt, a former Orange County Sheriff's Department lieutenant who ran
against Carona for sheriff in 2006 and finished second with 26.5% of the vote,
said the moves appeared intended to maintain Republican control of the sheriff's
office.
"It's just more of the same," Hunt said. He plans to apply for the sheriff's
job.
One thing that won't happen in Anderson's administration is any gesture to Hunt,
who was demoted by Carona following the election. Hunt retired and is now suing
the department, calling his demotion retaliation for running against the sheriff
and a violation of his First Amendment rights.
Anderson said he couldn't discuss Carona's decision to demote Hunt because of
the pending lawsuit. But he said he would not offer him his job back.
"We are always accepting applications. He can go to our website and apply for a
position with our organization."
