As the LAFD faced extraordinary warnings of life-threatening winds, top commanders decided not to assign for emergency deployment roughly 1,000 available firefighters and dozens of engines in advance of the Palisades fire, records show.
L.A. fire officials could have put engines in Palisades before the fire broke out. They didn't
Fire officials made the critical decision to forgo calling in extra firefighters to the level that they had during some similar weather events in the past, according to internal predeployment memos reviewed by The Times.
