Florida Sheriff’s “Kill You” Threat Highlights History of Corruption
Sheriff Wayne Ivey’s recent threat to kill anti-ICE protesters follows a pattern of alleged misconduct. Past accusations against Ivey include racial profiling leading to false arrests, alleged cover-ups of deaths in custody, and bribery attempts involving campaign contributions. Further controversies involve the refusal to cooperate with families of shooting victims and alleged attempts to influence local elections through job offers. These incidents paint a picture contradicting Ivey’s self-proclaimed image as a “constitutional sheriff.”
