Janice Hahn

Janice Hahn is a Los Angeles County Supervisor. She is currently newsworthy due to her involvement in two separate issues. First, Hahn is among several Los Angeles officials calling for the resignation of Casey Wasserman, the chair of the LA28 Olympics committee, following the surfacing of emails between Wasserman and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. These emails, dating back to 2003, were released as part of a larger collection of files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Second, Hahn's role as a county supervisor places her in a position of relevance regarding the controversial plan by California wildlife officials to exterminate a mule deer herd on Santa Catalina Island. This plan has sparked conflict between locals and the Catalina Island Conservancy, highlighting the complexities of environmental management and the impact on local communities.
