Bradley County Sheriff's Office helping law enforcement in Ukraine

The Bradley County Sheriff's Office is organizing donations for law enforcement in Ukraine.

It is being organized by Bradley County Sheriff Steve Lawson.

It started with a text from his friend and former colleague who is now a mission advisor for Ukraine.

Sheriff Lawson did not think twice about the opportunity to help law enforcement in Ukraine when it came about.

"You have to respect them. You have to see the fight in them, even the people on up to their leader. I talk about being a patriot. I believe that is there. What impresses me is their leader stood right up beside them. He is right there with them. He is not out with his suit on going down the street walking away from them. He is standing right there with them, and I appreciate that. Anything that we can do here at the Sheriff’s office I am willing to do,” Lawson said.
