DeAndre Hall’s candidacy for Macon-Bibb sheriff underscores his commitment to prioritizing jail and youth engagement improvements.
Following the announcement that he intends to run for the position of sheriff of Macon-Bibb in 2024, DeAndre Hall will take the opportunity to explain his campaign on Wednesday openly.
Beginning at 6:30 p.m. on November 15, 2023, the press conference and start of Hall’s campaign will take place at Barefoot Tavern, which is located in Macon’s downtown area.
In a press release, Hall’s campaign outlined the three most crucial pillars of the candidate’s focus. Improvements in the Police Department, the city jail, youth, and the community are the central points of his plans.
The incumbent sheriff, David Davis, declared his intention to run for reelection in June this year. Davis is now serving in this capacity.
In the midst of the Bibb County Law Enforcement Center’s inadequate staffing, the jail’s inadequate facilities, and the lapses in security, Sheriff Davis has been subjected to criticism.
