Court records show Guss' prior convictions include two strikes for residential burglaries in July 2014 and December 2018. He pleaded no contest to the resisting offense and got 16 months in prison, according to court records. LAPD officers in Newton Division arrested Guss on July 10, but he was released a month later, county jail records show. Jamie McBride, vice president of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, the union that represents rank and file officers, called Guss "a coward." _________©2024 Los Angeles Times.
