Why do you want to serve as Sheriff?

I see a lot of waste and untapped resources coming from the Sheriff's Office, and I would like to introduce a new perspectiveon how the public sees a Sheriff, and become a beacon of light in the community.

How can the office best serve the public?

By becoming visible. If I had a quarter for everytime someone came up to me and told me that they didn't know that Sussex County even had a Sheriff, I'd be rich. Being present and participating in community functions, causes, fundraisers, and other great causes, are also what the Sheriff should be doing.

Are there any new initiatives or changes you would bring to the office?

Yes. I would like to stress that the Sheriff is the highest ranking law enforcement officer in the County. I would like to see the Sheriff's authority re-instated, because right now, the Sheriff is nothing more than a powerless process server.
