ED. NOTE: We have reached out to Randy Bielinski who submitted the letter to identify the “anti-police organizations” referenced below. We have not received a response.
As current or former chiefs, command officers, and officers of police departments throughout Wood County, we have given much of our lives and careers to the service of the public.
We have had the opportunity to work with many judges over the years and have come to know what makes a good judge: experience. A good judge must have experience in the law and in the courts. He must preside fairly and without bias; he must be tough, but fair. These are the cornerstones of a good judge.
There are two “nice guys” running to be the next judge of the Wood County Common Pleas Court. One of these candidates is a respected prosecutor with a long history of support for law and order and first responders. The other has virtually no experience in felony criminal law, has virtually no experience prosecuting, and has publicly supported anti-police organizations.
Our vote is for the candidate who supports law and order: Corey Speweik. Please join us and help keep Wood County safe and vote Speweik for Judge.
