 5 other officer or employee of the department assigned to any correctional
 6 facility or to perform community supervision in relation to [his or her]
 7 conduct as such officer or employee, and shall have the power to inquire
 8 into any improper conduct which may be alleged to have been committed by
 9 any person at any correctional facility or in the course of [his or her]
 10 performance of community supervision, and for that purpose to issue
 11 subpoenas to compel the attendance of witnesses, and the production
 12 before [him or her] such person of books, writings and papers. A subpoe-
