Sacramento County Sheriff to Keep 70 Officers

July 14, 2009 Law Enforcement, Local News, Public Safety, Sacramento No Comments

Nearly 70 Sacramento County Sheriff’s deputies will remain on duty after concessions were made in an overwhelming vote.

Ninety percent of members of the Sacramento County Deputy Sheriffs’ Association voted to approve the contract addendum, which will save the county $24 million.

“The men and women who make up the Sacramento County Deputy Sheriffs’ Association realized the importance of being part of a solution to the current economic downturn and their role in trying to avert an even more ominous public safety crisis,” association president Kevin Mickelson said in a statement.

Earlier, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department said could lose 370 of its employees, including 300 deputies, because of severe county budget cuts.

Spokesman Sgt. Tim Curran called the move a worst-case scenario, depending on how the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors allocates money in its budget.

February 12, 2010

We know the “Conservatives” at Meg County were purchased.

Placer County Republican Party Under Fire by Sacramento Bee… (Breaking) Roger Niello the Choice of Big Labor

December 30, 2009

The Bee is depressed. John Doolittle isn’t around anymore to hate. Tom McClintock is regaining his rock star status in the GOP.
All that’s left is to attack those Right-Wing nutcases in the Placer County Republican Central Committee. Yours truly has a few things to say about that…

If George W. [...]
