Sheriff Knight challenges a local reporter to do his homework before taking pen to paper

 

Sarasota Sheriff
In an op-ed published today in the Sarasota Herald Tribune, Sheriff Knight challenges a local reporter to do his homework before taking pen to paper. Following the release of our #SCSOHowWeServe campaign in which we talk about diversity among our ranks, an article was published citing a lack of diversity in command level positions across Sarasota and Manatee counties. What the reporter didn’t do was ask us for any data which we would have been happy to provide. Here is a link to the reporter’s opinion piece: (https://www.heraldtribune.com/…/anderson-local-law-leadersh…) and a link to Sheriff Knight’s response: (https://bit.ly/2Z92uAH).
