Sonoma County and a pair of law enforcement unions have struck a deal that will increase civilian oversight of the county Sheriff’s Office. The agreement allows the expanded oversight approved by voters with the passing of Measure P in 2020. It gives the Independent Office of Law Enforcement Review and Outreach more authority and disciplinary powers over the Sheriff’s Office. The non-police county agency will now be allowed to investigate deputies, release body-worn camera video, and recommend discipline. Negotiations between the county and the labor associations started after Measure P was passed back in November of 2020.
