Sheriff'€™s office affirms Constitution

T

he Spokane sheriff'€™s office issued a statement over the weekend assuring the citizens of Spokane County that deputies are dedicated to upholding and defending the Constitution.

The statement apologized for a deputy who used the term '€œconstitutionalist'€ to imply that he viewed citizens who uphold the Constitution as a threat.

The sheriff'€™s office says he should have said '€œextremist'€ to refer to people who believe their ideology justifies lawless and violent acts.
