Sheriff's candidates lead off forum on top department issues
Sheriff's candidates at Tuesday's forum answered four questions on top department issues. Richard Trujillo urged integrity, grant funding, and closer ties with State Police and DA's Office while advocating a single evidence key to prevent theft. Miguel Romero pushed open doors, more personnel, school outreach, cross commissioning, and grant help. He noted no court liaison and urged faster out-of-area help with a tracking system for evidence. Dominic Martinez, a criminal investigator, also spoke.
