Sheriff files suit against DA after she’s subpoenaed to testify before civil grand jury
San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corps is trying to stop two attempts to remove her removal from office — including trying to shield herself from testifying before a civil grand jury.
Corpus had been subpoenaed to testify before the civil grand jury on Tuesday, but her attorneys filed a motion to stop her testimony, claiming that District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe’s office ought to be recused since he is acting as both the administrator of the civil grand jury and as prosecutor.
