L.A. Civil Rights Leaders Disagree On Sheriff Baca

Los Angeles civil rights organizations are stepping up their pressure
on LA County Sheriff Lee Baca after details emerged of inmate abuse at
the downtown Men’s Central Jail. The ACLU is calling for Sheriff Baca’s immediate resignation after the death of 18 year-old inmate George Rosales who was punched in the head by a deputy a week ago. Meanwhile some groups stepped forward to support Baca. Ernesto Arce files this report from Los Angeles.
