This week, we’re talking with Cerise Castle, the reporter who brought us the 15 part series on the history of deputy gangs in the LA County Sheriff’s Department. We wanted to get to know the amazing young journalist behind this investigation. She has been on a journey, to say the least!

If you’d like to learn more, please read the series at lasdgangs.com, watch the livestream of the forum for candidates running for LA County Sheriff on April 25 on YouTube or Twitch, and follow Cerise on Instagram @yourmajestcee and Twitter @cerisecastle.
