Bonus episode: Portland area's tri-county sheriffs KGW’s Straight Talk with Laural Porter

    • Politics

There's a new sheriff in town in Portland — or rather, three sheriffs over the past four years. And now for the first time in history, all three sheriff's in the city's tri-county area are women: Multnomah County Sheriff Nicole Morrisey O'Donnell, Washington County Sheriff Caprice Massey and Clackamas County Sheriff Angela Brandenburg.

All three sheriffs were guests on this week's episode of Straight Talk, and they stuck around for a bonus episode to discuss diversity in recruitment, improving relationships with groups that have historically had negative interactions with law enforcement, and better communicating the role of law enforcement to the community.
