"America's Sheriff" has a lot of parallels with this agency Greg Rupp...not in a good way

Being a cop takes a lot of responsibility and one must hold themselves to a high degree of accountability. DLSE Assistant Chief Greg Rupp is a sworn peace officer in California, but you'd never know it by his actions. He bends over for his (former) boss Jose Millan and then proceeds to screw every California wage claimant during the time described in the Corrales decision.

But just as in the red flags seen before Mike Carona's downfall, there were red flags in Greg Rupp's history with the DLSE. This peace officer, sworn to uphold the law, went after this clerk named Rowene Diaz. He went after her with such malice that the DLSE decided to settle her lawsuit secretly. After that, the DLSE promoted him.

It seems that the DLSE rewards assholes managers like Greg Rupp because of the frequency that he bends over for them. Loyalty goes a long way in this agency; not only must you leave your fingerprints at the scene, but you must also erase your boss's fingerprints. In any event, the division keeps people like Greg Rupp on the payroll, because it seems that after all, they serve a purpose.

In the end, it is the taxpayers who suffer because it's the taxpayers who got shafted in the monetary lawsuit settlement with Rowene, and it is the taxpayers who got shafted with Corrales.
