LANCASTER, Wis. â The Grant County sheriff recently shared a post from the son of a murdered county sheriffâs deputy asking people to write letters opposing the parole of the man who killed his father.

That post was shared by Sheriff Nate Dreckman on his public Facebook page, saying, âif you feel inclined, Tomâs family would appreciate letters written in opposition to Coulthardâs release.â
