Read the comments, too. So many thoughts. I agree with the person who said sheriff’s departments should be abolished. Spend the tax dollars on other law enforcement who can be a little less corrupt and have a little more oversight. Big budgets in a lot of counties and they report to NO ONE but the voters every four years, who don’t spend a minute considering this vote. So many examples of sheriffs around the country who just pass the buck to another agency, unless they want to fuck with someone or unless it’s close to election time. Let’s be done with this model of policing.
Second, what the hell happened to Michigan? I got the hell out of there as soon as I turned 18, but over the decades it has become more and more appalling. Seriously. What. Happened?
