The Oregonian is reporting that Multnomah County Sheriff Bernie Giusto may retire amid a messy controversy surrounding a sexual abuse case involving former Governor Neil Goldschmidt.
Giusto has endured relentless bad news recently, including a report highly critical of the management of the county’s two jails, and a proposal by County Commission Chairman Ted Wheeler to shift control of the jails away from the sheriff’s office.
Giusto was unavailable for comment Friday afternoon.
