My most important concern is Public Safety
To accomplish this I would:
Coordinate Countywide Crime Prevention
Meet with municipal police leaders and the County Prosecutor to identify crime problems, coordinate resources, and strengthen mutual assistance.Increase Sheriff Patrol Visibility
Increase Sheriff patrol car presence throughout Mercer County’s municipalities.Make Trenton Safer
Bring law enforcement, city officials, and community leaders together to reduce violent crime. If needed, seek limited federal assistance, with community support, to apprehend violent offenders and gang members.Cooperate Lawfully with ICE
Focus on dangerous criminals, honoring judicial arrest warrants and lawful removal orders. Assist with administrative warrants only in emergencies posing a significant threat to officers or the public.Back Up Law Enforcement
Assist local, state, and federal officers whenever they face danger and request help.Defend Public Safety and Constitutional Rights
As your elected Sheriff, address credible reports of wrongdoing that other officials overlook. Examine concerns involving election integrity, government mandates, alleged toxic aerial spraying, and surveillance systems such as Flock cameras; initiate criminal investigations when warranted.Prioritize Removal of Dangerous Illegal Aliens
Cooperate with federal authorities to remove violent and dangerous illegal aliens from Mercer County. Oppose sanctuary policies that shield dangerous offenders and undermine public safety.Call for Fair Immigration Reform
Urge Congress to resolve immigration problems fairly for the individuals and families affected.
