He sounds like a ROOKIE! They usually grow up after a couple of years or don't stay. Again, if he is not the elected Sheriff of your county, his superiors need to know what he is doing and saying. I would guess that his Sergeant or Lieutenant would have an attitude adjustment session with him that might at least make him think about what he says to the public. If they don't know about a problem, they can't do their supervisory job of dealing with that problem.

Rookies usually have to serve a probation period during which they are constantly evaluated and some recruits don't make their probation for various reasons. The usual reason is that they don't do the job well, and part of doing the job is getting along with the public. The black clothing worries me a little, but lots of officers like the mirrored shades. I wonder if he has watched the movie "Walking Tall" recently. I am assuming that this incident occured when the officer was off duty.

If he is your elected County Sheriff, maybe you have a problem and I really don't know what you should do.....If he does really stupid things that are likely to get the County in a liability situation, the County Commissioners (or whoever handles the Sheriff's Department purse strings) should be notified and maybe they can do something. If he is appointed, the person or board that appointed him should know what is going on.

But if, like I suspect, he is a fairly new officer who foolishly spouted off at the wrong time, I suggest that you let his supervisors know what he said. Watch him and Good Luck.
