The Times editorial page calls Rocky Delgadillo "unfit" to be City Attorney and urges he do the right thing and resign. Under the headline "The honorable thing," the paper says:
We take no delight in this position. It is never a happy sight to watch a public leader contort in the media glare the way Delgadillo has in recent weeks. But the evidence of misconduct has mounted too steadily — and the roots of Delgadillo's troubles go back too far — to sanction his continued role in Los Angeles government....Los Angeles' city attorney has displayed two significant character defects, which have collided to bring him into disrepute: his overweening ambition and his inattention to the details and ethics of his office.
