  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
Three male police officers from California have come forward to accuse the state's first female sheriff of past acts of sexual harassment and retribution.

According to a report from ABC 7 News' I-Team, two of the male accusers, who have revealed their identities, say they are not seeking any monetary compensation but merely want to have their stories heard and for the sheriff to be held accountable. The third accuser, a 30-year veteran officer, has remained anonymous out of fear of retribution against his children.

Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith, who was praised for breaking barriers for women as California's first female sheriff, claims the accusations against her are fabricated. "It's all false, absolutely false," she told the news team.

Hey, thanks for setting that straight.  When I read the headlines I thought ... that can't be right.  But I was not 100% sure.

On December 15, 1998, Laurie Smith was sworn in to serve as Santa Clara County’s 28th Sheriff since the
department’s inception in 1850. She has also been consistently chosen for re-election through four additional
terms to serve the people of Santa Clara County.

Oops, thanks for the "correction to my "correction""...thought she was recently elected. 1998 is the winner for "1st female CA sheriff".  As "church lady" would say "Never mind!".  888oops888
