The Deputy: Ivory Webb Jr., 46

A standout football player Carson High School and the University of Iowa, where he was a starting wide receiver in the 1982 Rose Bowl, the former San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputy served in the department for nearly ten years. He had worked as a jailer West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga and on patrol for more than four years. He was stationed in Chino Hills the night he pursued the Corvette driven by Luis Escobedo on a high speed chase through Chino and Montclair. One of Webb’s most fervent public defenders has been his father, former Compton Police Chief Ivory Webb Sr., who said his son “felt threatened” by Carrion’s motion just before he shot the unarmed Air Force airman three times. Webb left the sheriff’s department last year.
