The Limestone County Sheriff of 38 years is no longer in charge. This comes after Mike Blakely was found guilty on two counts of theft and ethics violations.
Now, Limestone County Coroner Mike West is acting sheriff until Gov. Kay Ivey appoints a new one.
Eric Redd is vying for that open position. He has run for sheriff s office twice before, and says he got closer than anyone else at beating Blakely back in 2018, when he received almost 40% of the votes.
