    You can tell this Sheriff loves his job. It's in his DNA. He is very well spoken & he knows his stuff. Plus he has a great demeaner & is a real gentleman. Thank you all for a very informative interview!

      YES THIS WAS A GREAT VIDEO. WE ARE FROM IRELAND AND HAVE MADE MANY TRIPS TO THE VILLAGES. OUR RELATIVES THERE ARE REALLY ALERT TO THE MANY SCAMS THESE DAYS. THE SHERIFF EXPLAINED EVERYTHING VERY CLEARLY. TAKE CARE FOLKS AND HOPE EVERYONE IS SAFE IN EVERY WAY. GOD BLESS.

    As a retired 30 year police officer, one of the best indications of a safe neighborhood is rarely seeing a police car.

    Very informative video today. Identity theft seems to be the number one crime for seniors right now because of their vulnerability. There was an outstanding article in the AARP magazine a few months ago that showed how these criminals from third world countries are able to convince people (not just seniors) to part with their money. One cop went undercover (and rogue) to expose how and where they operate. It was eye opening to say the least. He even turned their game against them.

    I met and spoke to the sheriff myself as a former law-enforcement officer I am very impressed with two things.
    He almost never takes credit for anything he’s done but always gives credit to those who work for him.
    And although he’s old-school on Forssman he’s not afraid to take on modern topics or to use modern technology to get the job done.

    We have been looking at The Villages for a while now, & your channel is one that we have used to get an idea of what to expect. I love the strength and character of Sheriff Farmer. He is obviously very pro citizen & I like that. Thank you for providing such an informative and awesome channel!

    Great information for us today! I had Credit card info stolen from a gas pump also. Northern Virginia, Metro area. My credit card people advised me to go inside and use the machine there. I have not had a problem again. It works every time. Not as quick, but safer!
    Enjoy yourselves and stay safe! Thanks for this helpful topic. Even if I do not live in the Villages, still interesting! Great job!

    Sheriff Farmer has a lot of experience that he brings to the job. The low crime rates in the villages are a testament to good police work and the residents that live there. Safety is important for everyone; especially seniors.

    Most phones have called ID. I never answer calls that don't match one of my contacts. If it goes to voicemail, maybe it's valid. I block and delete the spam callers. In the chance that I answer because I'm waiting for a call back and fail to look at the screen, and if someone asks if they are speaking with me, I never say "Yes." By saying yes, they can copy your answer and attach your response to some crap they're selling. Have a good time fighting that you never agreed to something.

My husband and I still work, I'm 63 & he's 66 but may consider moving to the Villages in the future. I have subscribed to your channel to keep up to date on what is going on.

    Excellent show...clearly the Sheriff is a real professional. I learned something new from him (maybe I should have known) having been a victim of skimming from gas stations...that security seal. I assume it is the same all over the country and will pay close attention to that. So much talk in our area about "defunding" law enforcement and results are awful. Nice to see a community where crime is taken seriously. Thanks for this show.

    I did not think I would be interested in this particular show, however, I was wrong. As always your shows are so enjoyable and informative. I live in Seminole County, Fl., and I found it very comforting listening to your sheriff from your area. I think my sheriff, though he may be very good, seems a little more politically motivated. Your sheriff seems like the type of sheriff you find in the dictionary listed under sheriff. Thank you again. I always look forward to your shows.

    Hey Jerry! Hey Linda! Lately I'd been reading "that" newspaper online. It gets you thinking, and not in a good way. Those negative reports were starting to get to me.
    Your timing couldn't have been better. We are less than 4 weeks away from our visit and we want to come with a good attitude. That sheriff sure made us feel a lot better.

Please, your ‘crime rate’ compared to NYC is a newborn. Predators are everywhere especially around the lower income areas. Linda’s purse was still in the golf cart 🤩🤩🤩! Linda’s right, I would never leave the Villages either 🤩😎.

    @laurarahz12 3 роки тому +2

    What a neat interview thanks J&L!!! The only question I would be curious about is I saw a documentary about the big sex offender population in Central Florida (Our America with Lisa Ling) and was curious if that was a big issue there although with the villages there aren’t many children but there are schools there and grandkids visiting so the thought popped in my head. Love your channel!!!
