“I am very proud to have served as Sheriff and look forward to continuing,” Coverley said. “The support from the community is tremendous and I can’t think of a better place to be the Sheriff than Douglas County.”
Coverley credited support from his staff and the community for that.
“The Sheriff’s Office can’t do anything alone, we need and get, tons of help from the community everyday and I am humbled by it,” Coverley said. “I also want to thank the men and women who work for me. They are without a doubt the best in the country and work tirelessly every day for you.”
