Sept. 29, 2025 Editor, The News-Gazette: As the polls are now open, I hope you will join me and vote: Tony McFaddin for sheriff of Rockbridge County and Lexington.
With over 30 years of experience in law enforcement, Sheriff Tony McFaddin is my choice to continue leading our Rockbridge County Sheriff’s Office.
Sheriff McFaddin has overseen the daily operations of the Sheriff’s Office for over 10 years; guiding, shaping, and building the Rockbridge County Sheriff’s Office into, what I believe to be, one of the most well-respected, trusted, and capable law enforcement agencies in the country.
The mission of the Rockbridge County Sheriff’s Office is to “perform in such a manner that promotes the public’s trust, confidence, and sense of safety and security.” Sheriff McFaddin lives that mission every day — a commitment I have been fortunate to see first hand serving our community alongside him over the last decade.
