To the Good People of Jackson County,
My name is Gary Driver and I am the former Sheriff of Jennings County, serving from 2015-2018.
During my time as Sheriff, I had the honor and privilege to work with Deputy Shawn Minton, who is seeking election to be your Sheriff. I can say that Shawn is an excellent deputy who is up-front and honest in everything he does. Shawn is able to command respect while demonstrating that same level of respect toward others, regardless of the situation.
Police work requires a certain type of person - one who is knowledgeable about the many facets of law; one who is able to maintain professionalism and objectivity in each situation; one who can retain emotional composure when faced with split-second decisions. Equally important is the passion to serve others, even in the face of the disrespect that is sometimes shown to officers.
While some officers are becoming discouraged and looking at career changes, Deputy Minton is wanting to do more. He wants to “serve and protect” for the right reasons.
If you want your Sheriff to be an approachable and trustworthy leader, I hope you will get to know Shawn and see for yourself that he has the leadership qualities that the citizens of Jackson County deserve.
Make your vote count and VOTE FOR SHAWN MINTON!
