    Have the Orange County Sheriff and the District Attorney engaged in secret misconduct for 30 years? A group of high-powered lawyers and former prosecutors wants the federal Justice Department to investigate. We hear about the alleged misuse of jailhouse informants and violations of the right to a fair trial.

    Also on the program, angry residents of a posh subdivision vented before LA Supervisors today over the natural gas leak that’s forced almost 70 families out of their homes. We talk to a homeowner and the Southern California Gas Company.
