Enforcing Rules Have Violent Consequences For Private Security
Private Officer News
Police and sheriffs across the country have said no. Yet, private security officers have taken on the job and many say that has only led to violence.
Sheriffs of at least three North Carolina counties have said that their deputies will not intervene with violations of people not wearing a face covering.
Governor Cooper issued an executive order requiring all people in the state to wear a mask in public, where physical distancing of 6 feet from other people is not possible.
Many cities and towns in North Carolina and other states have also issued their own order.
Some cities across the country have also made the order stronger by voting to make it an ordinance. Local ordinances can carry civil penalties, criminal fines and in some cases, up to 30 days in jail.
But the orders in North Carolina does not say how it will be enforced. Even if it did, sheriffs in Halifax County, Craven County, and Sampson County announced they wouldn't follow it.
