The Los Angeles County sheriff is facing accusations of covering up a violent jail incident between a deputy and an inmate, then lying by saying that he didn't know about it for months.
Derek Chauvin was found guilty in the death of George Floyd and is expected to be sentenced in eight weeks.
Thirty-five seconds later, the inmate is under control, his hands cuffed. Other deputies step away, but Johnson keeps his knee pressed against the inmate's head and neck area for nearly three more minutes. Huntsman's office oversees and monitors the sheriff's department. He says he has opened an investigation into the alleged cover-up by Villanueva
ABC7 asked to interview Villanueva but was declined. The department now says the sheriff knew of the fight in October 2021. Vera says even that date is a lie.
