Roe Conn is a sheriff's deputy??!!!! [View all]

I’m shocked.

PBS just featured a segment featuring Roe Conn — former RW ABC/WLS radio host and ABC TV local guest. An official Cook County sheriffs deputy since 2021 Conn’s worth $196 million but apparently he wants to play “police”. Google says he is Director of the sheriffs department under elected sheriff Tom Dart.

He’s is right wing as they come — Chicago’s equivalent of Sean Hannity. He’s very eloquent and fast talking and seemingly knowledgeable but he’s sexist and racist and Republican.

Him as part of the sheriffs department patrolling minority neighborhoods gives me nightmares.
