To the Editor:

Todd McKinley may be the only Republican running for public office that I have voted for in recent years. I hope that wasn’t a mistake.

I’m struggling to understand why he arrested the Forest Service burn boss in the middle of a fire at the apparent bidding of the Holliday Ranches. It’s my understanding that the fire crews were being harassed and feeling they needed the sheriff’s protection.

It leaves me wondering if the wrong party was arrested or if anybody should have been arrested.
