{"Image DocumentName": "JURISDICTIONThe house of Col. Sabow was on a portion of El Toro that was under federal jurisdiction.", "Image ImageDescription": "Gen Adams, the Base Commander, requested Orange County to take the body for post mortem examination at their facilities, rather than send the body to a nearby federal facility, Balboa Naval Hospital. Orange County agreed to this involvement and sent Deputy Ted Sullivan to the crime scene where he conducted a Coroner\u2019s investigation. Medical Examiner for Orange County, the county\u2019s facilities, including autopsy examination room, x-ray and photographic equipment, as well as support personnel were all used for investigation of the death. Since the crime scene alone can only yield limited evidence, when Orange County became involved on General Adams\u2019 request, they assumed at least partial or shared jurisdiction in the investigation of Col. Sabow\u2019s death. Since the Medical examiner and the sheriff/coroner signed the death certificate, they further acknowledged their jurisdiction. Furthermore, in 1950, when he transferred jurisdiction of the original base to the federal government, Governor Earl Warren, the future Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court included a document where he specifically withheld all jurisdiction on matters involving civil rights to the State of California! When the evidence of murder which occurred in California and, in which investigation, California law enforcement agencies participated, is ignored by federal authorities, then a serious breach of civil rights has occurred. These breaches were both to the victim\u2019s wrongful death and subsequently to the family of the victim by denying them justice.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
