I AM SURE YOU HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS OR ARE CURIOUS ABOUT WHO I AM, WHAT I STAND FOR AND WHY I HAVE DECIDED TO SEEK THE OFFICE OF SHERIFF, EL PASO COUNTY, TEXAS.

I HAVE REACHED A POINT IN MY CAREER AND LIFE WHERE I BELIEVED I COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE. WITH 24 YEAR OF PUBLIC SERVICE BEHIND ME, I CHOSE TO BECOME AN INTERNATIONAL POLICE ADVISOR IN IRAQ. I AM SHARING MY EXPERTISE, KNOWLEDGE AND TRAINING WITH THE PEOPLE OF IRAQ, HOPING TO SPREAD DEMOCRACY, JUSTICE AND WOMENS RIGHTS.  IN A FEW SHORT MONTHS MY MISSION IN IRAQ WILL BE COMPLETE.  I WILL BE COMING BACK HOME TO EL PASO AND HOPE TO CONTINUE MAKING A DIFFERENCE. 

HAVING FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE OF THE PROBLEMS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, HAS BEEN A REAL EYE OPENER FOR ME. THEY ARE FACING PROBLEMS WITH HUMAN RIGHTS, POVERTY, EDUCATION, CORRUPTION, DRUGS AND CRIME.

 I LOOK BACK INTO OUR OWN COMMUNITY AND SEE THE SAME ISSUES IN OUR OWN BACKYARD. I AM AFRAID, OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO OUR COMMUNITY IF WE STAND BY AND THINK IT IS SOMEONE ELSES PROBLEM.  WE HAVE TO START TAKING RESPONISIBILITY, AND STOP PASSING THE BUCK. I AM THAT LEADER WHO WILL WORK WITH THE COMMUNITY TO MAKE EL PASO THE SAFEST PLACE IN THE NATION.  I AM THE LEADER WHO WILL STAND UP FOR EL PASO.  

 ISSUES CONCERNING THE YOUTH ARE ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT TO ME AND MY WIFE NANCY. WE HAVE DEVOTED OVER 15 YEARS TO COMMUNITY SERVICE. WE HAVE A PHILOSOPHY - THAT GIVEN THE CHANCE” A KID WOULD RATHER STEAL HOME PLATE THAN A CAR ANY DAY”.
