LETTER: Gahler Criticizes Sheriff's Jail Management

Dan Thompson November 20, 2012 at 05:44 pm

It has been reported on the Dagger site that Sheriff Bane admitted this guy did die, but he still won't say when. Sheriff Bane is following in Obama's model of not knowing and not owning anything that happens under his watch. Pathetic!

How easy it is to criticize when you have no responsibility.

Dan Thompson November 20, 2012 at 06:27 pm

What's that Phil? How easy is it to be criticized when you want to take no responsibility? Like I said, good Obama model you are following. Answer questions with fiction and then get defensive when you are called on it. How did Ed Hopkins ever beat you out of the P.I.O. job?

Democrat or republican does not matter. Sheriff Bane is doing a great service to this community. To compare him to our teflon president is a disservice. And I am a republican.

As a voter it matters to me that Sheriff Bane does not feel the need to be open and honest with those who elected him. As a Republican I see the connection that Mr. Thompson is making and I believe he is right on the mark. The Sheriff claims the last inmate before this one is not a threat to himself and then it is discovered not only was he a known threat to himself, he had a history at the jail where they knew of his issues. If this were a one time event I would buy it being a mistake but there is a distinct pattern to Sheriff Bane being caught making statements that have been proven untrue. No different then what we are seeing at other levels of the democrat's party.

No, he isn't if he has not put into place the proper personnel that are needed for his organization to do their job.
That is the exact opposite of 'great service'.

Sheila, drop it. Both Republicans and Democrats lie and prevaricate while in office. Neither part is more 'honest' than the other though the Democrats have a history of being more honest that the Republicans when you look at things in a neutral light.
