Hundreds gathered at the Evansville Civic Center to watch Vanderburgh County Sheriff Dave Wedding file for re-election. Sheriff Wedding took over the position four years ago and pointed to numerous accomplishments during his first tenure as sheriff including cutting contract costs, and efficiency.
If re-elected Sheriff Wedding says he still has a lot of work left to do mainly at the county jail which has been plagued by overcrowding.
“We’re looking at a building a larger jail and that’s possibly 500 beds and then when we build that we’re just not possibly going to build the jail as a warehouse for criminals we’re going to try to build a jail where we can actually start improving their overall conditions like start maybe a jail chemical addiction program,†says Sheriff Wedding.
So far, Sheriff Wedding is running unopposed.
