Laurie Smith and Rick Sung spent the the whole of their testimony in a CCW bribery case invoking their right against self-incrimination.

The alleged mastermind of an bribery plot managed to duck charges for now. As did many of his apparently perjurious colleagues.

The names appear on a list from the Sheriff’s Office, which is under investigation by the DA for the way it grants concealed gun permits.
