Milo Fitch is the guest for Episode 153. Fitch is a candidate in the upcoming June 5 election for the position of Sheriff of Sacramento County. Milo Fitch served for 33 years in the Sheriff’s department, starting as a patrol deputy and working his way up the ranks to Chief Deputy, where he oversaw all the county’s correctional facilities.

Milo Fitch and I discuss why he became an officer of the law; why he felt it was needed for him to run for Sheriff of Sacramento County; why he feels the incumbent Sheriff’s interactions with Tanya Faisan of Black Lives Matter and other minority community has caused further divide amongst law enforcement and the public they serve; why reform programs are needed at the County prisons to help stop the recidivism that convicts experience; why he wants to change the thinking of law enforcement from a Warrior-mentality to a Guardian-mentality; how Restorative Justice can help reduce crime and relieve the overburden our prison and judicial systems are experiencing; why mental health care reform is needed to help both the public and the law enforcement community; and why bail reform is needed to end the practice of unnecessarily pleading guilty when the accused are standing trial.
