Dear Sheriff Bateman,
I really appreciate how you took the time to talk to my class
about your job and everything you and the brave men of the police
and sheriff's departments do to help our community and the justice
system. It was wonderful to hear from a former student of Old Mill
High, and your stories of your time there were simply amazing! I
wish I could help with your re-election this time around and vote,
but I'm afraid I'm still too young to vote (and try as I might, I
just can't pressure my parents to vote on anyone or on any cause).
However, I might frequently be in the courthouse next year (not
for anything bad, I promise). I'm hoping my Legal
Studies teacher/director manages to get me into an internship at the
courthouse, as she's been planning as of lately. I think it would
prove to be a wonderful experience. Everyone there was so friendly
and accommodating to my class; it's such a magnificent learning
environment.
Oh, and I also took the opportunity to watch a bit of "Anne
Arundel's Most Wanted", though I remembered a bit late and didn't
tune in until after 6:13pm. Just like you told my class in the court
room, I got to hear all of the details of your "KeyStone Candies"
and "Flowers by Ron" stings, which I found to be very creative.
Well, considering I think I've made this letter quite lengthy,
I guess I should end on this note: Sheriff Bateman, I really hope
you re-elected this November, because I really look forward to more
of your creative justice and crackdowns on crime. What you've done
for our county is very admirable, and I thank you for both that and
for the memorable time you've spent with the class.
Thank You and Good Luck!,
Fellow Old Mill High Student and Your Proud Supporter,
Richard Byrne III |
