    “I think often times the judicial division gets kind of the label of it’s safe because we’re serving papers. There’s nothing safe about judicial. You are dealing with people’s emotions each and every day,” explained Sheriff Johnson III.

    The sheriff seems to care more about the safety of his deputies than the morality of dragging elderly people out of their home.

    He does acknowledge that they are ousting someone from their home. But it is only brought up to reinforce the statement about safety.

    “You’re taking someone’s home away. That’s their last stand like that. I can tell you the first time I bought my first piece of property, how proud I was to be a homeowner. That is the American dream. And you’re taking that away from somebody. You talk about a world of emotion. [I’m] extremely proud of our deputies because we really go above and beyond to try to help our citizens along the way.”

    God Bless the U.S.

    Where we evict an 82 year old man and his parkinsons riddled wife he’s caring for.

    While the Sherriff brags about how dangerous it is for his deputies to evict them.
