In this episode, we hang out with Nick Hunter, the Sheriff of Marion County Oregon. We hear how he went from a family legacy career in the medical field to becoming the top lawman in Marion county. Nick breaks down his wild journey, starting with a ride-along with the Salem PD that made him realize public safety was his calling. Now overseeing four divisions in the Sheriff’s Office, Nick talks about the real challenges facing the community—like addiction, theft, homelessness and violence—and how it’s all connected. Plus, he’s got some killer insights on recruiting the best people for the job and why community involvement is key to making it all work.
We also get into the need for better mental health resources and how the Sheriff’s Office is stepping up to make real change in Marion County. Nick doesn’t hold back as he talks about budget battles, dealing with the Oregon state legislature, and how his team is all about connecting with the community to solve problems. If you’re curious about what it takes to lead a department like this and keep your community safe, this one’s for you!
