Looks like a good old boy network. Sheriff Earl “Moose” Butler is a 78 year-old democrat, in his sixth term.
Earlier Monday, Ronnie Mitchell, the top attorney for the sheriff’s office, released a statement saying that the office was investigating whether “there was conduct on the part of Mr. Trump or the Trump campaign which rose to the level of inciting a riot.” But by the time the sheriff’s office made its announcement, the charges already seemed unlikely.
“It doesn’t appear that we have sufficient evidence to warrant charging him at this time,” Mitchell had said earlier Monday. Mitchell said he offered legal advice to the sheriff, Earl “Moose” Butler (D), about whether to file charges.
