I'm at my wits end but, unlike my maternal grand-father ... I'm still alive, not that I have been able to get anything done on his behalf. Yet, I understand what it must feel like to be abused and ignored. Especially the IGNORED part.
When I called the LASD in 2009, Thelsey Leo Fuller, 92 ... WAS STILL ALIVE!
I will find away to make my complaints known as long as I have breath.
15) How can I find out the progress of an investigation or court case?
A: Call your local Sheriff's Station weekdays during business hours. If you do not have the report's file number, please be prepared to supply the date, time, location and name of the parties involved to assist us in locating the proper report.
19) Who should I call to complain about (or compliment) a law enforcement officers?
A: All California police agencies have a procedure for investigating complaints about individual officers or Department procedures in general. For incidents involving Sheriff's Department personnel or procedures, you can call your local Station on-duty watch commander (24 hours) or contact Sheriff's Headquarters at (800) 698-8255.
For incidents involving other local law enforcement agencies, you should contact the agency in question directly.

Criminal Grand Jury, County of Los Angeles
http://grandjury.co.la.ca.us/ In Los Angeles County the Criminal Grand Jury attends hearings to weigh evidence brought by the District Attorney's Office in order to determine on the basis of this evidence whether certain persons should be charged with crimes and required to stand trial in the Superior Court. The Criminal Grand Jury is an accusatory body and not a trial jury; therefore, the burden of proof is much lower. Specifically, the Criminal Grand Jury must decide if there is a strong suspicion the individual committed the crime alleged.
Office of Independent Review (OIR), County of Los Angeles
