Narrative:

I was in the cab and had only been monitoring local control-2 (local control) for a few minutes when I observed two separate losses of separation with aircraft X. First aircraft Y was cleared to land on ry 25R and was still airborne approximately 50 feet AGL abeam the closed runway 34R when aircraft X was cleared for take-off ry 30 from luaw (line up and wait). He was instructed to turn left just after he touched down (when you hear the audio in falcon remember that when local control-2 instructed aircraft Y to turn left onto K2; he had just touched down) while aircraft X was on the role RY30. The second loss of separation was with aircraft Z the number 2 aircraft on final ry 25R he was over the number of ry 25R as aircraft X crossed the intersection of ry 25R on ry 30.I believe he was trying to get aircraft X out for some reason; because I kept hearing him say that he got the release at the worst possible time. I believe the ATC's was aware of the location of all of the aircraft; but spoke as though nothing had happened. The flm (front line manager) was working clearance delivery (clearance delivery) combined with controller in charge (controller in charge) and I do not believe he was in any way aware of the events that just took place right next to him. I waited a few minutes after local control-2 was relieved and left the tower to file this report. Although falcon replay is not as good as eyes on; I thought it might help. I don't know what to do about this; I was watching the whole thing; and I believe the atcs was completely aware of the rules he was breaking but did it anyway.

Title: LGB Tower Controller reported two losses of separation by the same Local Controller; who in the reporters mind knew the correct procedure; but did not apply it.

Narrative: I was in the cab and had only been monitoring LC-2 (Local Control) for a few minutes when I observed two separate losses of separation with Aircraft X. First Aircraft Y was cleared to land on RY 25R and was still airborne approximately 50 feet AGL abeam the closed runway 34R when Aircraft X was cleared for take-off RY 30 from LUAW (Line Up And Wait). He was instructed to turn left just after he touched down (when you hear the audio in FALCON remember that when LC-2 instructed Aircraft Y to turn left onto K2; he had just touched down) while Aircraft X was on the role RY30. The second loss of separation was with Aircraft Z the number 2 aircraft on final RY 25R he was over the number of RY 25R as Aircraft X crossed the intersection of RY 25R on RY 30.I believe he was trying to get Aircraft X out for some reason; because I kept hearing him say that he got the release at the worst possible time. I believe the ATC's was aware of the location of all of the aircraft; but spoke as though nothing had happened. The FLM (Front Line Manager) was working CD (Clearance Delivery) combined with CIC (Controller in Charge) and I do not believe he was in any way aware of the events that just took place right next to him. I waited a few minutes after LC-2 was relieved and left the tower to file this report. Although FALCON REPLAY is not as good as eyes on; I thought it might help. I don't know what to do about this; I was watching the whole thing; and I believe the ATCs was completely aware of the rules he was breaking but did it anyway.
