HOUSTON COUNTY: Several weeks ago RSN sat down with Houston County Sheriff Donald Valenza and asked him several questions. Those questions were asked of him "as Sheriff".

Since the election is June 5, RSN wanted to give you, the registered voters of Dothan - Houston County, a chance to see Sheriff Donald Valenza answer those questions.

Donald Valenza started with Houston County Sheriff Department in 1979 under then Sheriff A.B. Clark.

Valenza worked as a Corrections Officer and then progressed under former Sheriff Lamar Hadden, former Sheriff Lamar Glover and former Sheriff Andy Hughes through the ranks to eventually become Houston County Sheriff.

Donald Valenza was devoted to every Sheriff he worked for. He was loyal to Andy Hughes when he served as Chief Deputy when Hughes served as Sheriff.

Andy Hughes suddenly resigned to take a six figure position in the former Alabama Governor Robert Bentley administration as Assistant Director of Alabama Homeland Security.

When things went sideways in Montgomery, Hughes retired and returned to Houston County. While Donald Valenza served Andy Hughes with complete loyalty, Hughes returned that loyalty in trying to unseat Donald Valenza as Houston County Sheriff.

Other than less then one year when Donald Valenza went back to Louisiana, he has remained with the Houston County Sheriff Department since 1979.

WHO IS DONALD VALENZA?
