“I proudly served as a State Trooper for 30 years and retired honorably in 2023. I’m endorsing Sheriff Larry Pierce for re-election because he has the experience, leadership, and proven track record to keep Wayne County safe. His door is always open, and he leads with integrity. With over 40 years in law enforcement, experience matters—let’s re-elect Sheriff Larry Pierce.”
