"The Honorable Commissioner Ron Pritchard
I have attached a press release for your review on yet more arrests of sexual offenders victimizing our children. These arrests would most likely not have been possible without your support of our office and our SORT Unit (Sexual Offender Registration and Tracking). I wanted you to know that your decisions and leadership is making a real difference in our community and this is just one very real example.

On behalf of the citizens, and especially the children of Brevard...
Thank you,
Sheriff Jack Parker "
