Controversial San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus has resigned from a club that supports families of police officers killed in the line of duty, according to San Mateo County’s One Hundred Club president.
President Ross Hite said Corpus resigned Tuesday morning, saying she could no longer balance her responsibilities and personal commitments.
The club was created in 1972, and Hite said each sheriff has been on the board since then. Corpus is the first sheriff to leave the club.
The club’s next meeting is March 4, the day San Mateo County voters are due to cast their ballots to decide whether or not to give the Board of Supervisors the power to remove her.
Hite said the club will not discuss replacing her until their March 4 meeting.
The One Hundred Club of San Mateo County is an organization that provides financial assistance to the families of any officer killed in the line of duty, according to its website.
The club also provides scholarships for the children of police officers who were killed in the line of duty.
The 100 Club board includes Jim Hartnett, a former Redwood City Council member and retired CEO of Caltrain and SamTrans, who is heading the Corpus recall campaign.
The board also includes District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe, whose office has begun an investigation into the sheriff’s office.
Others on the board include Menlo Park Police Chief Dave Norris, San Mateo Police Chief Ed Barberini, retired East Palo Alto police chief Al Pardini, retired Menlo Park police chief Dave Bertini and retired Burlingame police chief Jack Van Etten.
Another first for Corpus! Another historic first! Truthfully, the very first elected sheriff since 1972, in 52-years, to discontinue their service on the 100-Club board! The first elected sheriff since 1972, in 52-years, to decline to publicly support the families of police officers killed in the line of duty; those who have given the ultimate sacrifice in the service to others in San Mateo County!
Asserting she can, “no longer balance her responsibilities and personal commitments”, is the understatement of the new year! She gives the impression that such has been the case since her election and her transition team. Abandonment of duties, responsibilities and obligations seems to be an ongoing theme with the 26th Sheriff of San Mateo County!
It’s not entirely Corpus’ fault. Victor does demand a lot of her time and phone time from the ranch just isn’t enough for him. He’s also really bored watching Cops.
Well Aenlle isn’t a member why would she attend and support the group? Obviously, her moral compass is off.
All Sheriff’s department news, all the time. 24 hours a day.
No words except she is an unbelievable mess! Get out Corpus before your web of destruction does any more damage … if there’s anything left to destroy ! 100 Club … how could you be any more disrespectful … and as the Sheriff San Mateo County
and board member to quit via text the morning of the first meeting of 2025! So beyond belief to see what you are capable of … no self pride, so cowardly !
What a disgrace. I can’t wait for her to be arrested.
The only cop that the victim sheriff care about is doctor Vicky. Problem is he is not a cop. Never was and never will be. The only club she cares about is concierge level at her Maui hotel with the cute little doctor Vicky.
Per PADP’s last article, Corpus earns a hefty salary of $466,058 a year. Did Corpus ever donate money to The One Hundred Club of San Mateo County while on the Board?
