I'm wondering how many of those 'common' cases dealt with the Sheriff violating an explicit order of the court, as this one did.
I have no doubt that the Sheriff makes calls that release people early or to house arrest every day... "released into the custody of the Sheriff's office" and all... but if the judge says "do not do this thing," the Sheriff isn't supposed to do that thing. The Sheriff operates at the behest of the courts - as, with the exception of "pardons," all members of the executive are supposed to.

I'm not saying it hasn't happened - I'm saying that County Criminal Analysts are saying that it hasn't happened for the term of a sentence in Los Angeles County... which seems to be at the heart of the issue here.
