Until it’s country wide that all these types are delt with appropriately , it becomes a waste of news print
Until this bastard and his type are delt with properly it’s all just song and dance
Many ways to say it , hope I’m understood

“He can also have no direct physical conduct with suspects or inmates.”
Direct physical conduct? As in not touching?
Does that mean that shooting a suspect is still an option?
Hang ’em high…. everyone loves a good sheriff lynching.
