A recent LA Weekly article reported that the Maywood PD also patrols Cudahy, where the alleged corruption appears to be encouraged. State Attorney General Jerry Brown
ordered an investigation into the PD.

Recent events have set the heads of Minutemen everywhere spinning on their shoulders.
Jim Gilchrist, head honcho of the Minuteman Project has been fired by the group’s board, which claims the former CPA embezzled some $70,000.00 in Minuteman funds, appropriating the money to finance his campaign for Congress, and to promote his recent autobiography.
The Minuteman Project has been taken over by Marvin Stewart, a Black minister who is one of a number of Black anti- migrant activists being groomed for national leadership in the Minutemen and related movements.
