LA County Sheriff's Deputy Arrested by FBI


The arrest by federal agents of LASD Deputy Marc Antrim was the result of information the LASD provided the agents, as well the dedication of a number of department investigative resources. The LASD immediately brought the matter to the attention of federal investigators, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) after the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department was contacted by a concerned resident on Thursday, November 1, 2018 regarding the alleged criminal misconduct involving an employee.  That same day, an investigation was initiated by the Sheriff’s Internal Criminal Investigations Bureau (ICIB). 

The LASD continued to work in direct cooperation with investigators leading up to, during and after the arrest of the employee, with search warrants served at multiple locations.

When allegations of criminal activity involve law enforcement, we have systems in place to root out misconduct within the organization, as well as any Department member who chooses to violate the law and public trust.  This case indicates that these systems are working as intended.  The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is appreciative of the individual who came forward with information about this alleged crime.  His actions of reaching out to the LASD directly, are affirmation of the trust we have established with the communities we serve.  We have every confidence that the criminal justice system will bring swift legal resolution to these concerning allegations.
