Bill Hunt (dope)

Bill Hunt has announced him candidacy for Sheriff. Hunt narrowally lost to Carona the last go round. He even had the endorsement of the Deputies union. But he lost and faced a serious demotion from the Sheriff for challenging him. Hunt resigned rather than being demoted from Lieutenant to Deputy.

We know more about Mr. Hunt now. We learned about his part in the marijuana bust coverup involving for Assistant Sheriff Haidl's son. We also learned he doesn't think before engaging his mouth. Hunt testified before the Board of Supervisors calling for them to remove Carona from office. He even acknowledged such an act might be unconstitutional. Hunt demonstrated a lack of appreciation for due process and the rule of law.

Hunt has said some irresponsible things since the Sheriff scandal broke. O.C. needs a Sheriff that engages his brain before his mouth. Hunt isn't that guy.

It would be interesting to learn what his ballot designation would be. Did Hunt retire as a Lieutenant or did he retire after his demotion? That is a big difference when it comes to putting together his ballot designation.

Mr. Hunt needs to pick up an application from Home Depot and leave law enforcement to the adults.
