The ongoing and very public feud involving the San Mateo County sheriff, rank-and-file deputies and the county's Board of Supervisors continued to drag on this week with another flurry of dueling media statements.

A statement issued Friday on behalf of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors said Sheriff Christina Corpus may have dismissed Assistant Sheriff Ryan Monaghan as retaliation for participating in an outside investigation of the Sheriff's Office. Corpus responded that the board "is completely out of line" and "pure speculation."

San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus is calling for an investigation into the conduct of county executive Mike Callagy and is accusing him of abuse of power and inappropriate practices.

San Mateo Assistant Sheriff Ryan Monaghan was fired, possibly as retaliation for participating in a probe into the Sheriff's Office.

San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus said Sunday she is filing a bullying complaint against County Manager Mike Callagy with the Board of Supervisors, who earlier launched an investigation into her office. She says she’s a victim of sex and race discrimination.

Elected officials on Tuesday also said the state should be notified of “matters related to the sheriff’s office.”

The San Mateo County Sheriff, Christina Corpus, and her colleagues have gone back and forth for weeks, including firings, hirings, investigations and allegations regarding discrimination, misconduct and abuse of power.
