He is a career, law enforcement professional, having served 24 years with the Milwaukee Police Department before being appointed Milwaukee County Sheriff by Governor Scott McCallum in March 2002.

The Department made arrests in more than 80 percent of the homicides, well above the national average of 60 percent.
