LA CROSSE TALK PM: John Siegel, on why he’s running for sheriff in La Crosse County

John Siegel joined La Crosse Talk PM on Tuesday to talk about why he’s running for sheriff in La Crosse County.

La Crosse Talk PM airs weekdays at 5:07 p.m. Listen on the WIZM app, online here, or on 92.3 FM / 1410 AM 106.7 FM (north of Onalaska)

Among the topics discussed were, of course, Siegel’s reasoning for running, his qualifications.

We also talked about Siegel’s family makeup, with three adopted African-American children and a wife who is also African-American, and how that has shaped his perspective.

In terms of matters directly dealing with the sheriff’s office, we discussed the potential citizens’ policing board, school resource officers, and the big responsibilities the office deals with, including drugs and guns.
