Holding criminals accountable in 2024?!?!

WHAT AN IDEA!!!

[tonyzone]

This is EXACTLY how ALL Law enforcement needs to tell the public!

[jamesmartin]

They want the armed homeowner to come forward, not to be charged with a crime, but for firearms training so he won't miss next time! Priceless!😂

This Sheriff should run the country! Not just the Santa Rosa Sheriff's Department.
