Dave Hutch , Hennepin County Sheriff
Last year, former Metro Transit sergeant Dave Hutch unseated longtime Hennepin County Sheriff Rich Stanek, becoming the first openly gay sheriff in the Midwest. Sheriff Hutch has promised reform across the police department, from how inmates are treated in custody (including new procedures for trans inmates) to how it interacts with federal immigration agencies. Three months into the new job, we will ask him how those reforms are going, what we can expect in the years ahead, and if he can do something about this parking ticket.
