Mr Newell, Thank you for raising this. The outgoing Sheriff is gleefully continuing his pattern of doing favors for friends at individual citizens and taxpayers' expense. I am so thankful his time is limited, but is there no way to show him the door now and save us the money and 3 more months of corruption? In addition to the Batmobile, there is the recent revelation that Sheriff personnel were reading communications between jail inmates and their attorneys and passing the info to the DA--a clear civil rights violation.
LTE is loaded with guilt by association. Is there a conspiracy at work?
