MOORE TAKES OVER AS WAYNE COUNTY SHERIFF

(Wayne County, IN)--Alan Moore begins his second day as Wayne County Sheriff on Thursday.  Moore takes over as sheriff following the election of Randy Retter as a state representative on Tuesday.  Under Indiana law, a person cannot simultaneously hold two lucrative public offices.  Retter returns to the enforcement division as a lieutenant.  He’ll serve in that roll until his retirement at the end of January.  Moore had most recently served as the county’s chief deputy.
