SAN JOSE — A corruption investigation targeting the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office over a possible pay-to-play racket for concealed-handgun privileges now has reached the top tier of Sheriff Laurie Smith’s administration, with sources saying her second-in-command — Undersheriff Rick Sung — now is a subject of the wide-ranging probe into whether Smith rewarded political donors with the coveted permits.

Multiple sources confirmed that a search warrant was served Thursday morning at Sung’s office in the Sheriff’s Office headquarters on Younger Avenue in North San Jose. Computer equipment was seized by investigators with the District Attorney’s Office at the direction of its Public Integrity Unit, sources said.
