“The El Dorado County Sheriff says he’s not happy with the U.S. Forest Service, so he’s stripping them of their authority by keeping them from enforcing state law within the county.  Sheriff John D’Agostini is taking the unusual step of pulling the police powers from the federal agency because he says he has received ‘numerous, numerous complaints.’  In a letter obtained by CBS13, the sheriff informs the federal agency that its officers will no longer be able to enforce California state law anywhere in his county.”
