A test trial didn’t begin today because the defendant was in a county jail dorm that was quarantined due to a possible COVID-19 exposure.

The move comes amid a scandal involving LAPD officers falsifying records to wrongly include people in the database.

While saying questions remain about the death of the 24-year-old found hanging from a tree in Palmdale last month, the lawyer said his investigation has not turned up any evidence of foul play.

The Sheriff's Department said there was no sign of a struggle or trauma, and that Fuller had at least one previous suicide attempt and had contemplated it on other occasions.

"Police officers that don't wear the mask are wrong," said Police Commission member Steve Soboroff. "You've gotta get used to it."

People have taken to social media to show maskless LAPD officers and L.A. County sheriff's deputies.

There are currently more than 2,600 state prison inmates with COVID-19; 22 have died, along with two prison staff members.
