— from Brent D. Johnson, Retired San Juan County Undersheriff —
I have had a very gratifying career in law enforcement for forty-five years. I worked for the U.S.A.F, the Albuquerque Police Department, Bernalillo County District Attorney’s office, University of Washington, and San Juan County Sheriff’s office. I retired as your Undersheriff in March 2018. During my many years in law enforcement I worked under a number of different leaders. Sheriff Ron Krebs is one of the best.
Sheriff Krebs is focused on the needs of the office and the community. He is a fair and caring leader. When Sheriff Krebs first took office, he understood the need to set standards and policies for the deputies and dispatchers to follow for both the good of the office and the community. He established obtainable standards and for the first time for many employees, he enforced them.
The stress of a campaign will reflect the true personalities of the candidates. I have been following the campaign although I no longer live in San Juan County. Sheriff Ron Krebs has demonstrated a positive, focused campaign whereas his opponent, Jeff Asher and his supporters have become negative and hurtful in their attacks. The office of Sheriff is stressful and demanding. Who do you want to be your Sheriff? I recommend and urge you to re-elect Sheriff Ron Krebs, lets continue excellence.
