Dear Editor,
As a former FBI agent who proudly hails from this County, I
have spent many years away from home but have consistently returned to my
second residence in Allegany County. Each visit reminds me of the important
values we hold as a community, especially in the realm of governance and
financial integrity.
With the upcoming election for County Treasurer, I want to
express my strong endorsement for Jenna Kelley whose experience and education
makes her the most qualified person for this vital role. Having dedicated my
career to safeguarding our nation and addressing financial crimes, I am acutely
aware of the risks associated with high-dollar investments. It is essential
that we entrust this position to someone who not only understands the
intricacies of finance but also possesses a proven track record of ethical
decision-making of taxpayer’s money.
In my years with the FBI, I have witnessed firsthand the
detrimental effects of fraud in financial management. With our County’s
resources at stake, the County Treasurer must be someone who can detect
irregularities and ensure transparency. Jenna Kelley embodies these qualities,
having amassed significant experience in both public service and financial
oversight. Her educational background and steadfast commitment to ethical
practices will serve our County well, particularly in these challenging
economic times.
I urge my fellow residents to consider the importance of
this election. Let’s support a candidate who will not only safeguard our
investments but also uphold the trust we place in our County leadership.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Dennis Joyce, Retired FBI Supervisory Agent
Folsom, CA
