I was thrilled to read that Ingram had switched parties. Loyalty to one political party is not necessary to adequately protect the citizens of Brunswick County. It's interesting to me that the people who seem to dislike Ingram and are out campaigning against him are the ones who are mistakenly holding him responsible for Hewett's removal from office. So, some of the ones who blew the whistle on Hewett are still employed by the Sheriff's office...BIG DEAL...that just says to me that Ingram is a man of integrity and has nothing to hide. He is a smart, capable Sheriff and is making wise decisions to keep our county safe.
