Sheriff Lupe Valdez: “It’s just a witch hunt”
Matt Pulle at the Dallas Observer let everyone know in a blog post today how cooperative the Dallas Sheriff can be.
Pulle had asked for a public information request regarding internal affairs complaints regarding four Sheriff’s Department employees.
Sheriff Lupe Valdez accidentally included Pulle on an email reply to her legal advisor, Leslie Sweet:
“Let’s see if we can keep from doing this, its’s just a witch hunt. He can do that, but let’s not assist, if we can help it.”
Pulle says he hasn't heard an explanation about it. Probably won't, considering what he's written about Sheriff Valdez.
Back in 2004, reported The Washington Post, "Valdez said she decided to run for sheriff to restore integrity and trust to the department. "
"What have we come to when we can't say 'elected official' in the same sentence as 'interest of the people' or 'honesty' or 'trust'?" Valdez told the Post.
