I want to be the sheriff of Stanislaus County so I can continue to serve its residents to the best of my ability. This is where I grew up. I truly care about the people who live here. Even while serving in the Army, I considered Stanislaus County my home. The majority of my professional life has been in public service, either military or law enforcement. As your sheriff, I would be honored to lead the department and continue to develop its personnel and resources to protect the residents of Stanislaus County. I have the law enforcement and leadership experience that enable me to meet this challenge.

Stanislaus County sheriff
“My decision to retire is also an opportune time for someone else to lead this fine organization to even greater heights. Jeff has served the sheriff’s office, our employees and the people of Stanislaus County with pride and admiration.”
