Former captain sues sheriff, saying he wouldn’t bow to corruption
February 9, 2025 // On Nov. 12, Philip was given orders to arrest the head of the deputies union, Carlos Tapia, who had been critical of Corpus. Instead of arresting Tapia, Philip quit, saying there was no “factual basis to warrant the arrest” alleging timecard fraud. District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe later threw out the Tapia’s case. Philip’s lawsuit says the arrest of Tapia followed a pattem of retaliation by Corpus and her former chief of staft and alleged boyfriend, Victor Aenile.
