Pick Beggs, Knezovich

Sun., Nov. 2, 2014

Your vote in the next few days could decide whether we continue to spend massive tax dollars on an ineffective justice system, or we get smart about justice and law enforcement.

I support giving Spokane County Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich the tools he needs to rebuild trust in the Sheriff’s Office, as well as bringing in Breean Beggs to turn around the missteps in the county Prosecutor’s Office. Beggs and Knezovich are strong leaders and both support changes called for in the Smart Justice campaign. Notably, their opponents are receiving significant support from law enforcement unions.

Please vote for Breean Beggs and Ozzie Knezovich for accountability and reform.
