8. A side, trivial note: The sheriff is all Meta in discussing the case, how they lost sleep, reacting

to what media is saying, more. In this and many events, the spokespeople seem to be affected by being in the media, in different degrees - deer-in-headlights or thrilled by the spotlight or nervous or occasionally thoroughly in charge.

As for this Meta sheriff, seems like he shouldn't be so personal in his details, both about him and his staff and about this victim and family.

I know the locale is not L.A., but on a brief visit I saw how law enforcement interacted with celebrity types (not big names) with extreme solicitousness and deference, like supplicants to the important people.
