Top 3 Issues
Issue 1
I recognize that the Sheriff’s Department is consistently understaffed, and our other candidates serve in important positions which would need immediate replacement and training in an already stressed environment. I am not taking anyone away, rather I would be adding to the existing experience and leadership, without bringing in any bias. We need to repair broken relationships with county and other law enforcement partners. We must refine our training, hire those of moral integrity and maintain accountably without compromising transparency.
Issue 2
The greatest longterm challenges which face our county are tribalistic contention and generational biases of families and businesses. No matter how well an established program is, it will be of no benefit if we perpetuate immoral and divisive behavior. We must elect those who will serve for the benefit of the county and not themselves. We need those who are peacemakers and do not compromise integrity.
