Introducing Pandora's Box: The Fall of L.A.'s Sheriff
Pandora’s Box: The Fall of L.A.’s Sheriff is a six-part podcast exploring the crisis that toppled one of the country’s most prominent lawmen, Lee Baca. Rising from humble beginnings, he presented himself as a reformer when he took over the scandal-plagued agency in 1998. He vowed that he would be sheriff as long as he lived, and voters seemed to approve. But inside the massive jail system he ran, claims of inmate abuse kept surfacing. When a young FBI agent found an inmate willing to talk, it triggered an unprecedented clash between two massive law agencies…and a cover-up that went to the top.
