Johnson Statement on Bergen County Sherriff Saudino

(TRENTON) – Assemblyman Gordon Johnson (D-Bergen), who formerly served as Bergen County Sheriff, issued the following statement regarding Michael Saudino:

           “Sheriff Saudino’s racist and bigoted comments are unacceptable and offensive. His hate-filled words are beneath the values we share as a community and they violate the integrity we demand and expect of those in law enforcement.

“Residents and employees have an expectation to be treated professionally, fairly, and without discrimination. Sheriff Saudino must resign immediately for the good of all the residents of Bergen County and to maintain the high standards of the Office of Bergen County Sheriff.”
