NEW: Portage County Sheriff slams Emilia Sykes for siding with criminals

July 11, 2024

A new report from the New York Post shows Portage County Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski slamming Emilia Sykes in a letter for consistently standing against law enforcement and siding with criminals.

Sheriff Zuchowksi: "Her approach has eroded trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve. By placing political agendas above the well-being of our citizens, she has created an environment where officers are hesitant to perform their duties, fearing backlash and lack of support from their leaders. This endangers both our officers and our entire community."

"Local law enforcement can't do their jobs effectively because of Emilia Sykes' radical anti-police stances and divisive rhetoric. Voters won't believe her phony election year stunts to appear pro-police when her extensive record says otherwise." - NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
