| Richard Mack has been in law enforcement for over 20 years. He worked his way up the ladder from parking cadet for the Provo Police Department while in college, to Detective. In 1988, Mack moved to Arizona and was elected Sheriff of Graham County, twice. Other honors include: Graduate of Brigham Young University Graduate of the FBI National Academy Elected Official of the Year (1994) by New Mexico/Arizona Coalition of Counties Received the Firearms Industry's "Cicero" award (1995) Law Enforcement Officer of the Year (1995) by the NRA Defender of the 2nd Amendment Award by Gun Owners of America In 1994, Mack was the first Sheriff in the country to file a lawsuit against the Brady bill and ultimately won a landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in defense of the 10th Amendment and State Sovereignty. This magnificent ruling, which reinforces the fact that the Federal Government can not force their programs on the States, has been virtually hidden from the public by the media. Sheriff Mack has been a consultant on numerous cases regarding police abuse, brutality or other government and police misconduct for attorneys and citizens alike. He lectures on various Constitutional issues, especially gun control and the 2nd Amendment, States' rights, federal intervention, the proper role of law enforcement, and the peace officer's oath of office. He is also an expert at explaining why a Sheriff is the leading law enforcement authority in his county. Publications authored by Mack include, "The Proper Role of Law Enforcement" and "Protect and Serve: Time for Sheriffs to Walk Tall." Books co-authored by Mack include, the best seller, "From My Cold, Dead Fingers" now in its second printing, and "Government, God, and Freedom." |
| "I'm very excited that Richard Mack has agreed to come to Okanogan County and become a member of our team," says Candy Gamache, Libertarian candidate for Okanogan County Sheriff. "Richard Mack will fit in very well with our program. He has already successfully stood up to federal tyranny and has done so in a very lawful and respectful way. I couldn't have asked for a better, more qualified person to be responsible for the day to day operations of our Sheriff's department," adds Gamache, saying, "The level of experience he [Mack] brings to the department will set a new standard and benefit all of us in Okanogan County." |
