Editor,

I am a proud supporter of Chief Christina Corpus for sheriff.

Ms. Goodban, so you’re asking us to choose Corpus, with less than a year of police chief experience and no track record vs. Sheriff Bolanos, with 6 years of experience as SMC Sheriff and a track record of keeping the county one of the safest in the region? Perhaps when Corpus attains a few more years of leadership experience as Millbrae police chief, we’ll have a track record to compare against, but for now, it appears Bolanos is keeping the public safe. BTW, the deputy sheriff’s association declined to endorse Corpus. The sergeants did not endorse her either. Sounds like they are not ready for a new boss.

Captain Corpus has more relevant experience in her little finger than her opponent has in his whole body. She has consistently implement new programs and partnerships that improve the ability of Deputies to serve the community. In contrast, our current Sheriff has spent his time in office engaged in self-dealing. Morale in the office is at an all time low, as publicly stated by so many deputies at the Board of Supervisors meeting last week. His supporters claim he was powerless regarding the contract that deputies have been without for 18 months--perhaps that is because he only understands "power" and does not understand leadership.

Sorry Westy, you keep trying to blame Bolanos for a contract he has no control over. One has to wonder why Corpus supporters insist on attempting to smear Bolanos. Perhaps because Corpus doesn’t have a leadership track record that can be compared against Bolanos, with a successful 6 year track record as Sheriff keeping our county safe.

Our current Sheriff has shown no capability for leadership. He did not need to wait almost 2 years (until election season) to address the Board of Supervisors about the need for a contract. He could have been advocating all this time with the BOS and other involved parties. Morale is at an all time low, as many deputies attested last week at the BOS meeting, and our Sheriff bears direct responsibility for it. He is the reason for the shortfall of 100 deputies and he has done nothing to address it. We need a Sheriff whose primary concern is with the health and safety of Deputies and the well being of ALL of our San Mateo County communities.
