This was discussed in an article on the book of faces yesterday. Our favorite Sheriff as very adept at this so possibly the responding officers were cut from the
"Here as a Career steady pay check softy" group.
It is so hard to understand.
My God - I can only hope that is not the case here. If it is, he needs to resign and crawl into a hole. An oath is only as good as the man taking it.
The first officer to go in was off duty, out of uniform and UNARMED! The four deputy's that report to the sheriff were out front hiding behind their cars, weapons drawn. My dad raised me to judge the quality of a man by watching his actions. I've muted the TV (because words are cheap) and watched the officer and the sheriff in front of cameras - one was clearly vested in the safety of his community and one was blowing hot wind, more worried about optics than how his leadership failure had harmed his community.
