Scott Tipton for Justice of the Peace

12/24/2022

I was sworn in as the Justice of the Peace, Navajo County Precinct 5, on Tuesday, December 20 at the Holbrook County Complex. Most of the recently elected officials were also in attendance to be sworn in as well. (Incoming Constable John Roy, my replacement, is right beside me) The Show Low Justice Clerks also showed up, and Judge Patterson swore in Judges Pro Tem Atencio and Hendrickson. I also attended a wonderful retirement party for outgoing judge Shirley Patterson, where we were able to get a quick pic with retired judge Steve Price! I am excited (and a little nervous) to start my term as Justice of the Peace and Show Low City Magistrate! Thank you to all who supported me through my campaign last year!

It looks like most of the votes are in and it’s staying at 67% of the vote for me and 33% for my opponent. I want to thank everyone who helped in my campaign, from putting signs in their yard and sending words of encouragement to those who donated financially. I especially want to thank Jamie, my wonderful wife, who backed me through this campaign, who kept my feet on the ground, and who rallied family and friends to walk in the 4th of July parade without me when I was sick. I want to thank my opponent, Dawn Wilson, for running a clean campaign and not slinging any mud! Good luck in your future endeavors.
When I take office in January 2023, I pledge to do my best, to get the education I need, and be a fair and unbiased Justice of the Peace. I will listen to and serve my constituents in precinct 5 and never forget where my judicial authority comes from: you, the people of precinct 5. Thank you and I am honored to have this sacred trust as Justice of the Peace.

We are all the products and sum of decisions made in our lives. This date, July 14, has twofold meaning to me. The first is the decision I made to ask my lovely wife, Jamie, to marry me. Together we have been through 32 years of joy and pain, raised 3 great kids, lost a child, been through financial and spiritual hardship, moved several times, built 3 houses together, and have spent half our married lives in Show Low, Arizona.
The second significant meaning this date has for me: July 14, 2000 is when I was involved in a deadly force encounter while working for the Tempe Police Department. It was a domestic violence dispute, and when I got between the suspect and the victim, the suspect opened fire. During the exchange of gunfire, I was shot 7 times. I was severely injured, but relied on my training and was able to stop my attacker. The suspect later died, and I was too injured to return to a job I loved. I received the Medal of Valor and the Tempe Cross for my actions on that day. My daughter posted a video of the shooting below.
I believe being committed to a spouse, raising children and being devoted to your family develops character. The commitment to wear a badge and keep a community safe also shows character. As your Show Low Justice of the Peace, I will bring the qualities of honesty, integrity, and fairness to the bench. I will humbly and diligently serve the citizens of Show Low Justice Court Precinct 5 to the best of my ability.
