To the editor: I am writing this letter of support for Sheriff
Steven Nichols of Logan County, Ill. I have known Sheriff Nichols
since 2002.
I have found Sheriff Nichols to be an educated and informed
member of the law enforcement community. I work weekly with Sheriff
Nichols as we are both members of the Illinois Sheriffs'
Association. Sheriff Nichols' understanding of the trends in central
Illinois makes him a valued partner as we continue to fight the
crimes that plague our communities.
I have talked for many hours with Sheriff Nichols about the
similarities and differences in both our communities and how we can
best use the resources at our disposal to make Logan County and
Peoria County better places to live, raise a family and provide a
decent living.
[to top of second column in this letter] |
I have known Steven Nichols to be a man of honesty and principle
who is dedicated to the citizens of Logan County.
It is without hesitation that I say... Sheriff Steven Nichols
should remain as sheriff of Logan County.
Sincerely,
Michael D. McCoy
