In a recent government meeting, officials addressed ongoing investigations surrounding allegations of misconduct within the sheriff's department, particularly focusing on the actions of Assistant Sheriff Victor Anje. The discussions highlighted concerns regarding Anje's request to change the lockbox code for a firearm safe, which has been flagged as potentially criminal by Judge Cordell.

The meeting revealed that Anje's employment status with the county is under scrutiny. While Sheriff Corpus believes Anje may still have a relationship with the county, officials clarified that the county has taken the position that he is no longer an employee. This situation raises questions about Anje's qualifications for the assistant sheriff role, as the county asserts he does not meet the necessary criteria set by human resources policies.

Further complicating matters, the investigation into the sheriff's department has been referred to the district attorney's office and is also being reviewed by the attorney general's office and the civil grand jury. The meeting also touched on the existence of an \"old boys network\" within the department, with officials noting that while some involved may be newly hired, their previous connections could still play a role in the ongoing issues.

Concerns were also raised about the sheriff's conduct, particularly regarding alleged homophobic remarks, which some officials argue disqualify her from holding office. The meeting concluded with questions about potential federal involvement in the investigations, though no evidence was presented to confirm such claims. The situation remains fluid as investigations continue.
