Longtime Inland Empire journalist and KVCR news contributor Cassie MacDuff and KVCR's Jessica Greenwell review some of the big Inland Empire news stories from the past week.
1. The US Department of Justice is suing the Inland Empire Health Plan, alleging the agency made false claims to support Medi-Cal payments it wasn’t entitled to.
2. State Sen. Sabrina Cervantes has filed a legal claim against the city of Sacramento over police handling of her arrest after a traffic accident last spring. And footage from the officer’s body camera, released by Cervantes’ office, seems to support her allegation that she was treated more severely than the driver who ran a stop sign and hit her.
3. A Riverside County sheriff’s deputy allegedly used a statewide criminal data computer system to stalk a woman he met while on duty at a Coachella event.
