To the editor:

I’m writing to express my support for Steve Hoffman for Jasper County Sheriff. Steve was born and raised right here in Jasper County, he has more than two decades of distinguished law enforcement service under his belt and he would do a fantastic job of serving the citizens of Jasper County and ensuring their safety.  

He has a track record of not only dealing responsibly with tax-payer money, but actually increasing county revenue by essentially marketing the county jail to other sheriff’s departments around the state. Jasper County would certainly benefit from such innovation in these tough economic times.
