Eric Redd

I am running for Sheriff of Limestone County because I care deeply about the future of our community. I love this country and the Constitution, I am an Oathkeeper and believer in upholding and defending the Constitution. If elected, I will always work to bring honesty, integrity and fiscal responsibility to our sheriff’s office.

Campaign Promise

I will create a task force with the sole purpose of stopping the manufacturing and selling of meth in our county. Many think they are untouchable because of family ties to the current sheriff’s administration;

A major problem in our country is human trafficking and pedophiles. I’ll work with other departments to put an end to our state highways and interstates being used for human trafficking;

Our sheriff’s office should have in-depth training on the Constitution. Our deputies swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. It’s the foundation of our legal system and every officer should always focus on protecting our liberties;

We need an audit of the department’s budget and equipment. I’ll focus on streamlining the budget and stop unnecessary expenses such as an airplane;

All deputies should be required to wear body cameras. This will protect our officers and citizens alike. It’s an expense that could save the department a high-dollar lawsuit;

Our current sheriff’s administration often turns a blind eye to illegal immigrants driving with no insurance and false credentials. Many illegals fled their country of origin after violating their own laws. They came to the United States and are actively ignoring our laws and completely disregarding our legal system;

If elected as your sheriff, I plan to speak with legislators to pass a constitutional carry law. Permits will still be needed to cross state lines because of state reciprocity.

I’ll work to implement a better plan for school safety. Possible alternatives are deputizing, training and equipping faculty that would be unknown to the public;

Offer firearms safety and awareness training to any Limestone County citizen who wishes to can attend at no cost; and

Offer firearm safety and awareness training to every school in our county. Too many accidents happen that could have been avoided by providing our youth with common-sense gun safety education.
