On Tuesday, Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims of California said she is not enforcing Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom’s lockdown order, noting that her team has their “hands full trying to re-arrest” criminals who are out on “zero-dollar bail,” a policy implemented in 2019.
“I’ve heard multiple sheriffs around the nation state they will not enforce their governors’ shelter-in-place orders. Is that your position?” asked Trevor Carey, host of the Trevor Carey Show.
“That is my position,” the sheriff answered in the affirmative. “We do not stop the public to find out what they’re doing when they’re not sheltering in place. We don’t ask those questions, we don’t ask if they’re ‘essential’.”

Good for her if she is on the up and up. About time Sheriffs are finding their balls and take their oath a little more serious. They are THE top law enforcement officer in their respective counties. Even the fbi and dea and other fed agencies have to defer to them and notify they are active in their counties, but sadly that is not the case. Maybe the Sheriffs will start arresting fed and state agencies agents unless they register in the county.
