Nearly 150 community members showed up last night in-person and virtually to witness the San Diego Sheriff Candidate Forum. The Sheriff candidates, Kelly Martinez and John Hemmerling, were asked questions that the SDOP community deemed important to our families and region, including homelessness, jail deaths, immigration and racial bias. Visit the link in bio to check out a recording of the forum.
