On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
The most urgent problems the sheriff needs to address are gang violence, illegal aliens committing crimes, drug activity, senior citizen money scams, child pornography and women victimized in crisis pregnancy from forced abortions. The sheriff must join all municipal police departments and federal law enforcement agencies to stop these criminal actions and mentor children in our schools. The sheriff's office also must investigate criminal wrong-doing at abortion mills that involve human-trafficking cases. Citizens need an educated, conservative/pro-life sheriff to fight crime, and I want my grandchildren to go to schools, sports and church in a safe community.
Why should voters elect you?
I will put public protection ahead of politics, 32 years law enforcement experience, a bachelor's degree in criminal justice, and I am a pro-life, conservative Republican.
