The L.A. County Coroner’s Office has concluded that a man who died at the home of a prominent Democratic donor in West Hollywood overdosed on crystal meth. It is the second such death, at Ed Buck’s West Hollywood apartment, of a similar nature in the last couple of years. The results from 55-year-old Timothy Dean’s autopsy has renewed calls for Buck to be prosecuted. But so far there is no word from the L.A. County District Attorney’s office if that will happen.

Before former Governor Jerry Brown left office, last year, he put his pen to a couple, new transparency laws.  Both have to do with public access to internal police investigations and video footage of shootings by officers and deputies. Now that these laws are on the books, dozens of newsrooms across California have joined forces to review those records.

Think of Santa Monica and there are a number of things that come to mind: an idyllic, beachside setting; a tech-saturated economy; a bastion of liberal politics. That last bit, however, may not extend to voting especially if you ask one county judge. He’s ruled that the city’s at-large voting for City Council is illegal and discriminates against Santa Monica’s growing Latino population.

Those who cast their ballot in the LA Unified School Board election at a local school or church likely did so for the last time. From now on, you can either vote by mail or go to an official voting center.

It’s the team that’s had to deal with a geography and identity crisis for years, with some of the most supportive fans in Major League Baseball. The L.A. Angels of Anaheim, formerly known as the Anaheim Angels and the California Angels could very soon become the Angels of Long Beach. That's unless Anaheim has something to say about it.

A landmark bill signed by then-Governor Brown last year is intended to make records of police misconduct available to the public.

The latest on how judges are weighing in on the matter.

L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti announced today that the city's utility will not revamp three of its natural gas power plants. It is all part of the Mayor's vision for a cleaner city. But what will this decision mean for your electricity bill?

California researchers weren't satisfied with how meteorologists explained weather events such as heavy rains, so they created five categories from "weak" to "exceptional."

Alex Villanueva made a surprise visit to the L.A. County Board of Supervisors to defend his rehiring of a troubled deputy. That deputy was accused of domestic violence and stalking. But the L.A. County District Attorney's office decided not to prosecute, and Villanueva says he will do the same in several other, similar cases.

On the sixth day of striking in Los Angeles, LAUSD and its teachers’ union say they have finally reached a deal. Many in the pro-teachers camp are giving a big portion of the credit to one man: Alex Caputo-Pearl. But who is he? And what will he do with his newfound popularity?

The L.A. teachers' strike is now well underway and both sides are waiting to see who will budge. Others are looking to their elected leaders, from L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti to newly minted Governor Gavin Newsom, for help. But can they make a difference, especially with an issue that has so much at stake?

The L.A. County Sheriff’s Department says it has opened an investigation into a second death, in less than two years, at the West Hollywood residence of Ed Buck.

It is an anxious time for students and staff over at L.A. Unified. The union representing teachers has promised to go on strike sometime next month, unless the district meets its labor demands. And that means more than 30,000 instructors could do something they have not done since the late-1980s: walk off the job.

It has not happened in nearly 2 decades. But the L.A. County District Attorney’s Office has filed charges against a law enforcement officer for shooting an unarmed person. The decision, however, has many folks scratching their heads, wondering why other cases with similar circumstances did not garner the same legal response.

It’s been a western staple for more than a century. But the situation is reportedly pretty dire over at Sunset Magazine.

LA City Councilman Jose Huizar returned to work today for the first time since the FBI raided his home and offices. There is still little to no information about what federal agents took or what they are looking for.

The Woolsey Fire continues to rage at a little more than a third containment today. Areas in, and north and west of, Malibu are feeling the brunt of the impact. But across the Ventura County Line, headed past Point Mugu, and toward Oxnard, is a plot of land that has a lot of history. And controversy.

The L.A. Dodgers return to the World Series this week, fighting for the second year in a row to take home their first title in 30 years.
