He will be required to submit monthly status updates on the state of the backlog to Snow. What comes next will depend on how effectively Penzone manages to tackle the backlog. Warshaw will now have authority to direct policy in the bureau, audit investigations, and reverse decisions in investigations if necessary. In his order, Snow also gave Warshaw new oversight ability over the Professional Standards Bureau. That could mean fines of hundreds of thousands of dollars in just the first few months should the sheriff's office fail to comply. In October, Snow proposed that the fine be five times the cost for one sergeant. And the fine is hefty: it will be equal to three times the annual salary and cost to recruit and train one sergeant with Professional Standards Bureau. If vacancies remain despite the order, the county will be forced to pay a monthly fine into a staffing fund for the internal affairs unit. Once they are filled, Penzone isn't allowed to let the number of investigators fall below 26, according to the contempt citation. The office now has 60 days to hire seven new investigators to fill positions that have remained vacant for years, despite being funded in the department's budget. In the judge's contempt finding, he outlined a series of new mandates that Penzone must follow - or face significant penalties. ![]() "Each of its investigators, on average, completes 17 investigations a year." From 2016 through 2021, MCSO maintained the same number of investigators - 26 - despite claims that it was increasing staffing. "MCSO now has 2,137 pending investigations," Snow wrote in the contempt finding. Large-scale cases involving sworn personnel - such as sheriff's deputies - take an average of more than 800 days. Misconduct investigations in MCSO take an average of 611 days to be completed. One of those is that the agency's internal affairs division, the Professional Standards Bureau, must conduct timely and thorough investigations of complaints of misconduct by sheriff's office employees.īut the division, which has been understaffed for years, has not been doing so. Now, the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office is under the watchful eye of a court-appointed monitor, Robert Warshaw, and must comply with a host of court-ordered mandates. Arpaio was ultimately pardoned by former President Donald Trump. It began as a class-action challenge to the agency's widespread racial profiling practices - leading to Arpaio's 2017 criminal contempt conviction. Arpaio, dates back to 2007, when Arpaio was sheriff. We will continue to move forward," Penzone added. "Public safety remains my top priority while continuing to come into compliance with the court's requirements. "Our investigations are consistently found to be high quality, imposing appropriate discipline." But the volume of cases was simply "overwhelming," he added. "My office is currently in compliance with 92% of the order that focuses on internal investigations," Penzone wrote in a statement about the contempt citation. Penzone said he understood Snow's decision but disagreed with it. The ACLU has worked on the lawsuit for more than a decade. “The time for excuses has run out - Sheriff Penzone has had over six years to fix the problems that continue to plague this agency and prove to the court and our clients that he is dedicated to rebuilding trust in the Latino community," Christine Wee, senior attorney with the Arizona branch of the American Civil Liberties Union, said in a prepared statement. If Penzone fails to address the concerns in the contempt finding, the county could face significant fines. "He leaves the court with few options for obtaining compliance with its orders." "The backlog, despite Sheriff Penzone's knowledge of it, only gets worse," Snow wrote. District Court Judge Murray Snow filed the contempt order on Tuesday, finding that Penzone had "not taken all reasonable steps" to address a severe backlog of internal investigations into complaints of misconduct. A federal judge has held Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone in contempt of court in a case that dates back to the reign of former Sheriff Joe Arpaio. ![]()

The case wound its way from district court to the Ninth Circuit-three times-and the U.S. For her part, Von Saher challenged the transfer of title by arguing that the Soviets had seized the paintings from a church in Ukraine, not the Stroganoff family. courts from questioning that decision and, subsequently, conveyance of title to Stroganoff-Scherbatoff. Lawyers for the museum argued that the act of state doctrine prevented U.S. courts could contest the decision of the Dutch government to sell the pieces to Stroganoff-Scherbatoff. A key issue in this case was whether U.S. Her twelve-year legal battle with the Norton Simon, however, appears to have ended with the Ninth Circuit confirmation of the museum’s clear title. The family sold most of the pieces, but as Von Saher told the New York Times in 2008, her claim “was never about the money.” It was about belated justice. In February 2006, the Dutch government agreed to return more than two hundred Old Master paintings, including works by Jan van Goyen, Salomon van Ruysdael, Jan van der Heyden, and Gerard ter Borch. In the late 1990s, Goudstikker heir Marei von Saher-Edward’s widow-relaunched the family’s effort to recover plundered assets. Though not convinced the works had truly belonged to the Russian family, Dutch authorities were willing to sell the pieces to Stroganoff-Scherbatoff, who then sold them to museum founder Norton Simon in 1971. The Dutch government held the paintings in trusteeship until 1966, when it sold them to a member of the Russian aristocracy, George Stroganoff-Scherbatoff, who claimed the works had been plundered from his family by the Bolsheviks. After the war, Desiree negotiated the restitution of some recovered assets, but the Cranach paintings were among those she did not claim, due to recovery fees imposed by Dutch authorities for assets sold to the enemy. ![]() managed to pay for the upkeep of the property by selling grandstand seats for Pasadena's Tournament of Roses Parade.Back in Nazi-occupied Amsterdam, the Cranach paintings were among several hundred works sold by the dealership employees to Hermann Göring and German dealer Aloïs Miedl.

After incorporation, the Institute secured 9.5 acres of land and a 22-room Victorian house (the Reed mansion) in Carmelita Park at the corner of Orange Grove and Colorado boulevard in Pasadena.
