San Mateo County Supervisors Move to Appoint New Sheriff
The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors has decided to appoint a new sheriff by November 13, after removing Sheriff Christina Corpus from office.
This decision makes San Mateo County the first in California to remove a sheriff chosen by voters. The Board of Supervisors had to navigate uncharted territory, as there was no precedent to guide their decision.
Coming to this decision was very difficult. It really comes down to trying to give the department the ability and the best chance to heal.

The decision was made during a special meeting, with the Board opting for a long-term appointment for the next sheriff. Undersheriff Dan Perea, who was hired by Corpus, has taken over the sheriff's duties but will not be given the title of interim sheriff.
