Anytime I hear a report like this I am reminded of when the previous Sheriff disagreed with the county mechanic on a needed repair issue then demanded my deputy ex-husband make the repairs himself instead of allowing the county mechanic to do his job. After watching a Youtube video on how to make said repairs, and with limited tools, my ex, frustrated, way out of his depth-tried his best. Gotta love small town policing with the wrong person at the helm. All this to say - I’m so glad we have Sheriff Fisher and deputies don’t have to deal with that crap.
