L.A. police commissioner to resign
Los Angeles Times
|October 14, 2025
The ex-FBI agent has faced criticism for his past counterterrorism work in Israel.
A member of the Los Angeles Board of Police Commissioners who led a nationwide search to hire a new LAPD chief and sparked condemnation from activists for his previous counter-terrorism research is stepping down.
Erroll Southers confirmed his plans to resign through a spokesperson Friday, ending a stormy two-year tenure on the influential civilian panel that watches over the LAPD.
The spokesperson said that Southers, 68, wanted to spend more time with his family and pursue other professional opportunities — something that wasn't always allowed by the demands of serving as a commissioner. The officials often spend time outside their weekly meetings attending community events.
According to the spokesperson, Southers was not asked to submit his resignation, but she declined to say more about the timing of his departure.
