Robin Limon’s lawsuit against the county and Sheriff Alex Villanueva seeks at least $3 million in damages.

Plaintiff Robin Limon’s Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit alleges retaliation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, defamation and violations of the Public Safety Officer’s Bill of Rights. She seeks at least $3 million in damages.

Instead of punishing Johnson, Villanueva promised he would not discipline the deputy if he destroyed the photos, according to the suit. Limon knew that for the sake of the safety of residents, it was imperative for the sheriff to address the Escalante incident immediately and reinforce policies against deputies using excessive force, the suit states.

“Whistleblowers are supposed to be protected by state and federal statutes and are supposed to be safe from retaliation,” the suit states. “However, the whistleblowers are not safe in LASD and are not protected by the county.”
