On Oct. 7, the Supreme Court issued a ruling, written by Justice Randy Holland, affirming a previous ruling by the Superior Court that Sussex County Sheriff Jeff Christopher does not need to make arrests to act as a conservator of the peace.
Christopher filed a lawsuit against county officials on May 9, 2012, asking Superior Court to rule that he is able to carry out law-enforcement duties, including traffic stops and arrests, transporting prisoners and providing crowd control at events.

Wjo is paying for this nonsesne? I am sure not out of the sheriffs budget. Since he lost this case several times it should come out of his pocket. I also blame the judges involved,such a frivolous law suit should never gone to trial.

ReplyDeleteTo the sheriff:
ReplyDeleteI say then sue the state because the state police get their powers from the sheriff and if the sheriff has no powers then neither do the state of delaware troopers have power...
But this is a plour just to get the elected people out and put who they know will do what they want in...
y do the troopers have powers?
ReplyDeleteOf course they do not want the Sheriff to have police powers. The first official arrest would be Councilman Phillips for assault, rape, and now insurance fraud from his supposed disability.
