" Training isn't the big issue. This Sheriff was a KSP Trooper before he was Sheriff. Solving cold cases that others couldn't solve and clearing people who others convicted can make those people look bad.

Another problem is training new people from day 1 to think they're better than everyone else. Good people will ignore that crap, but people who are already arrogant let it go to their heads. All it gets you is a lack of cooperation from other agencies when you need it. Unfortunately there are some arrogant fools who took the job mainly to get a badge and a gun not to do the job. "

Very good post.

And yes elected Sheriffs are not required, but alot of them go to Richmond anyway.

However that was not the point of my post on the subject.
