On paper, Gary Nalbandian would appear to be an influential figure in Southern California law enforcement.Some years back, I explored the issuance of badges--and guns--to people of influence. This story says nothing about guns, but I've requested clarification from the reporters.
He has served as director of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Homeland Security Support Unit, the Riverside County Sheriff's Executive Council and the Bureau of Justice for the San Bernardino County district attorney's office.
But Nalbandian is not a professional cop. The only paid law enforcement position he has held is as a volunteer reserve deputy with the Los Angeles County sheriff — salary, $1 a year. His real job is running a tire store in Glendora.
He is, however, a major political fundraiser for Southern California law enforcement officials.
Stay tuned.
