GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) – Brown County Sheriff Dennis Kocken didn’t have to write himself a ticket. But he says it was the right thing to do.
“As sheriff, I’m held to the highest standard in law enforcement. How can I hold officers accountable if I don’t hold myself accountable?” he said. “I’m satisfied I’m doing the right thing.”
Kocken issued himself a ticket March 27 for an unsafe lane change, three weeks after he had rear-ended a suspected speeder after that driver slowed to turn. Neither the deputy who completed the accident report nor the Brown County district attorney’s office felt that Kocken deserved a citation.
“But it kept bothering me,” said Kocken. “Finally I decided to write myself a ticket. I felt it was the right thing to do.”
