San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus, who told the county supervisors she didn’t know about her department’s request to buy 10 massage chairs, actually tried to pass off the bill for the chairs to the sheriff’s bureaus in different cities to minimize scrutiny, according to an email from her HR manager…In March… Corpus purchased two soft-serve ice cream machines for employees in the county jails. In January, the Post reported that she had purchased a $74,000 conference room table. The 22-foot by 10-foot table includes 12 “cooling fans” in the legs and 10 “lockable access doors”… At a June 24 hearing, Supervisor Speier asked Corpus why she put in a request for a $600,000 TV for the headquarters conference room.

“The Democrats’ Choice,” naturally…
