Letter: Jerry Hatcher for sheriff

Jerry Hatcher seems to be an enforcement masterpiece. He is recommended by all the other sheriffs in Washington state.

For 16 years I have been looking for his help. He was kind to me and got the job done finally. When you are a nobody citizen of a city it is so very difficult to get any help.

I was recently told by a current young city council member that the council has no power to help citizens like me, a nobody. So I am not a bullfrog sitting in the city pond like Emily Dickinson writes about in her poem, I’m Nobody! Who are you?

I would encourage everyone to vote for this hardworking, get it done, law enforcement masterpiece..
