Press conference just started. Here's the new Command Staff:

As Undersheriff: John Scott (her guy from the LA Sheriff's Department, from which he had retired).

As Assistant Sheriffs:

Jack Anderson (in charge of administration)
John B. Davis (in charge of investigations)
Mike Hillman (in charge of operations; a Deputy Chief from the LAPD)
Mike James (in charge of jails)

Acting Executive Director of Special Services Rick Dostal was confirmed in that post.

Assistant Sheriff Charlie Walters will be retiring.

Hutchens said she looked inside the OCSD first for talent, and then went outside to fill out her Command Staff.

John Scott, in response to a media query, said there was no one else he would have come out of retirement.

Sheriff Hutchens cautioned that Scott and Hillman would not be with OCSD "forever" but were part of a "transition' of indeterminate length, and wanted talented OCSD personnel to know there would be opportunities fro promotion in the future.

UPDATE (4:20 p.m.):
Here are brief bios on the various members of the new Command Staff, as well as an organization chart:
