Dear Fellow Citizens:
w
The greatest tribute that can be paid to a person is to serve as an elected
official, for which I thank you. The citizens of Chattooga County have placed
me in this honored position.
All that has been accomplished during my administration has been
through the combined efforts of the department’s deputies, other law enforce
ment agencies and most importantly, you, the public. You have given us
valuable and needed assistance.
Be assured that your confidence in me is graciously accepted. It also
serves to remind me of the responsibilities of this trusted position. The
Sheriff’s office under my leadership will continue to educate our youth about
crime and its effects, to patrol our streets and roads, to be readily accessible
should our services be needed, to maintain humane conditions for prisoners
housed in our jail and to serve our courts as duty demands.
Your vote on August 9th will remind me, Gary McConnell, of my duty to
you. As long as I am your Sheriff, I pledge to continue the effective law en
forcement to which Chattooga County has become accustomed.
RESPECTFULLY,
GARY McCONNELL, Sheriff
