WELCOME
I would first like to thank all of my supporters from four years ago, and I ask that you continue to support me through another term. In my last four years, I have been budget conscious and have been careful about spending your tax money for improvements. I have also been very dedicated to you about how the Sheriff’s Office has moved forward with providing the very best service to you. I am concerned about the unknown expenses that will be coming forward over the next years, but I believe being involved in many areas will be beneficial to me.
I am a proven leader who takes problems head on and works through them. Currently I am not only the Swift County Sheriff but am also the Deputy Emergency Manager for Swift County. I work hand and hand with all my staff members who work in the jail, dispatch, and the deputies out in the field. I feel all my staff work extremely hard, and I am proud of their dedication to provide excellent service to you in Swift County.
We do have a drug problem here in Swift County. Even if we could designate one full-time deputy to combat this problem, it would not be totally solved. This requires the community’s assistance to help law enforcement battle this issue. You are our eyes and ears in the community, and we rely on this. Know we are continually working on this problem.
We will fight to keep the dispatch center and the jail open here in Swift County. I am also dedicated to keeping the jail full.
I listen to your concerns and needs because I care for Swift County. I believe the deputies we have are a great fit into our county because they also care and are dedicated to the service they provide to you.
