Regular readers will remember I wrote recently about the
unfortunate death of Marysville P.D. officer Rodarte during a combined
task force drug operation. CalOSHA had gotten involved and in fact
levied fines against both the Marysville P.D. and the Yuba County S.O.
over what they asserted were deficiencies in how the raid was handled.
Marysville and Yuba County are now both suing CalOSHA. It is there position that this agency has no jurisdiction in the matter.
The
first hearing is scheduled for about two weeks from today. It will be
very interesting to see what shakes out. As far as anybody has been
able to figure out this is the first time that OSHA has inserted
themselves into this sort of situation since the agency has been
around.
