Possibly out of an abundance of caution, the BOS is redoing the hearing for a civilian oversight board for the sheriff’s department.

I was watching the whole thing and am not quite sure why they are doing this. Juan Pablo Cervantes ended up driving down to the courthouse and being let in by a member of the public since all of the sheriffs deputies were in the chambers “perhaps” trying to intimidate people into not speaking up. So maybe this is just to make sure everything is by the book or maybe Rex and his good old boy network are trying to mess things up. Regardless, it would be wonderful to get even more people there in person and on the phone to let the BOS know that people want more oversight than only Honsal - who insisted very defensively that he is all the independent oversight his department needs.
Edit: this is a great time to bring up the flock cameras and how Honsal assured the BOS and public that privacy would be protected but then almost immediately gave access to government agencies which violated state law and his own policy
