  • He’s such a great guy. I’m glad it was this Brown. The otheR Brown acts like he knows way more than any other first responders that have been serving the community for 20-30 years. Not a great way to establish rapport.

  • Sheriff Stockton needs to check into Weight Watchers. I would love to see him run after a criminal.
