State leads investigation of sheriff’s deputy alleged to have taken reports, data

Posted on March 15, 2010 by Dissent

Elizabeth Larson  reports:

A Lake County Sheriff’s deputy is the subject of an ongoing investigation involving the alleged theft of documents and massive amounts of protected data, surveillance of fellow deputies and allegations that he posted an investigative report on the Internet because of political motivations.

Dariush Michael Morshed, 48, is at the center of the investigation – led by the California Department of Justice – into the alleged theft of protected materials, including reports and electronic data files, according to documents obtained by Lake County News.

[…]

Martin’s investigation offers reasons for Morshed’s alleged actions, including his displeasure over being demoted, which Martin said Morshed has stated both to him and others.

Morshed – who is of Middle Eastern descent – also has filed a complaint alleging discrimination with the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), and e-mailed a complaint to the California Attorney General’s Office alleging corruption.
