Things must be in bad shape when an internal employee is asking to have the lab audited.
A forensic evidence technician has asked for an investigation into conditions at the Monterey County Sheriff’s crime lab, and Sheriff-elect Scott Miller said he will ask for an outside audit of the facility when he takes office in January.
The concerns do not come as a surprise to outgoing Sheriff Mike Kanalakis. According to a document obtained by The Herald, Georgine Scott-Codiga has been voicing them to him and her supervisors since at least 2007. As of September, she says in her request for an investigation, they have not been addressed.
