We are writing this letter to enthusiastically support Sheriff Ron Krebs for San Juan County Sheriff. As sergeants, we have worked for Sheriff Krebs since his election eight years ago. Over the years, he has consistently demonstrated that he is an honest, thoughtful, mature and caring leader. He understands the unique challenges of being a Sheriff for a county that includes similar but distinct island communities, which require a much different management approach than that of a large police department. He has been relentless in his efforts to improve the professionalism and capabilities of the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office by voluntarily seeking accreditation through the Washington Association of Sheriffs & Police Chiefs (WASPC). WASPC is the gold standard for establishing that an organization is operating under industry best practices and standards. He has successfully led the Sheriff’s Office through unprecedented changes to policing due to national events. Please join us in supporting Sheriff Krebs as he seeks to serve and protect our communities for another four years.
