"Operation Dirty Pond" is a public corruption probe launched in November 2022 by the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office which led to the search of Huntington Park City Hall and the home of Mayor Karina Macias.

The district attorney’s probe follows a lawsuit alleging officials colluded with a consulting firm to use city coffers as their “personal piggy bank.”

Almost a dozen search warrants were served in Huntington Park in connection to a corruption probe. Huntington Park City Hall and the home of Mayor Karina Macias were among 11 locations searched by investigators with the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office.

Officials raided 11 locations in Huntington, including the mayor's residence and city hall as part of a probe into a $14 million project.
