Are deputies ‘pigs?’
To the editor:
In a scathing letter, our esteemed sheriff made reference to his deputies that may be considering joining the Benevolent Police Union. He said, “Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.” Joining the union is not uncommon in the police departments and these officers, as free Americans have every right to hear both sides and consider it.
Upon being approached in regard to Sheriff Mike Scott’s cruel reference to his officers, he decided to “spin” his words a little. He said this was just referring to the business saying that it’s all right to be a little greedy but not too greedy.
Are we beginning to see a side of the sheriff that he has not shown before?
