This co-chairman had been in an elected state offi ce prior to involving himself in this sheriff's campaign. What would you want your sheriff to do? A. Report it to the proper authorities for a full investigation? B. Hide it from the public to protect the candidate and the embezzeler? 2011 What if Cleveland County sheriff's offi cers came to your home at 6AM without a search warrant and seized your guns that belonged to your deceased husband. (violating amendments II and IV OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES . That did happen in Cleveland County in 2011. After a 6 years and 9 months long court battle, and over $30,000 in legal fees, Judge Donald Bridges ruled there are no statutory or legal grounds which the guns should be in the custody of the law enforcement entities in Cleveland County. "The property is presently being held without just cause" was the ruling of the judge and ordered that the guns be released to the family. What would you want your sheriff to do? A. Do a thorough investigation and fi nd the truth before entering the home? B. Do a sham investigation and rob a citizen of the II ammedment right to keep and bear arms? 2013 In May 2013 a Superior Court Judge Nathaniel J. Poovey described the behavior of a Cleveland Coun- ty sheriff's offi ce deputy as "repugnant" and said the agency specifi cally and purposefully turned off audio recording equipment during a vehicle stop. Judge Poovey said that "the admitted withholding of evidence, hiding of evidence, and additional attempts to cover up evidence by offi cers has cast a cloud of suspicion in the court and has been particularily helpful in determining the creditability of testimonies". Sheriff Norman contended the lack of audio was a result of an equipment malfunction stating the battery for the offi cer's microphone depleted and needed to recharge. Judge Poovey said the court found his testimony about battery issues a "falsehood". What would you want your sheriff to do? A. Hold the sheriff's offi ce accountable for investigation and missuse of evidence? B. Should offi cers use falsehoods, withhold evidence, hide evidence, and attempt to cover up evidence to justify making an arrest and make their case? 2016 June 21, 2016 a Cleveland County deputy killed a man whose family called 911 for help with their men- tally ill son. A mentally ill person was shot and killed because he threw a chair at an offi cer who responded to a call for assistance. The offi cer knew before arriving at the scene that he would be dealing with an mentally ill person. "It's hard" Carpenter said, "I lost my son in my front yard from a call that was meant to be helpful, not harmful." What would you want your sheriff to do? A. Would you use your taser gun or other means of restraint to capture the individual? B. Would you shoot to kill and take the man's life? In each of the above cases, the Alan Norman administration chose B. The Cleveland County justice system (Good Ole Boy System) all agreed.
