Sheriff Joe...What do you think?

Pixie, you forgot to mention how much he has cost the county in defending lawsuits. This is why he had to cut costs in other areas.

The ACLU has an ongoing suit that he will almost definitely end up loosing because of his treatment of pretrial detainees and convicted criminals in the same way, and the fact that he provides inadequate care to mentally ill prisoners. He is not in compliance with Federal Court orders regarding standards at his jail, including his tent city. At some point his stance is going to bankrupt that county, and the people who are going to pay the price are the ones who keep electing him.
