Sheriff DeArmond seeking reelection

Christian County Sheriff Tyler DeArmond has announced he’ll seek a second term in next year’s elections.

The Republican sent a statement to local media Monday saying, “It has been an honor serving as the Sheriff of Christian County. I greatly appreciate the support by the citizens of Christian County and it’s my hope you will continue to allow me to apply my years of experience and knowledge to the sheriff’s office.”

He says his top priority, “will continue to be community-first, while forming partnerships and working as a team to make Christian County a safer place.”

Sheriff DeArmond cites the citizens’ academy, trunk or treat and lunch mob events at elementary schools as community outreach events over the last four years.

DeArmond is currently unopposed.
