Daren "Bear" Osborn
HIAWASSEE, Ga. – Daren “Bear” Osborn officially announced intent to challenge incumbent Sheriff Chris Clinton in the 2020 Towns County sheriff’s race.
“Our community deserves a working sheriff that is dedicated, fair, and will ensure quality law enforcement for Towns County citizens and visitors alike,” Osborn told FYN.
The Towns County native began his career in law enforcement in 1986, and has served as a deputy and criminal investigator with neighboring Union County Sheriff’s Office since 2013.
Osborn said that in order to be a leader, one must first be a servant, and that he strives to offer his experience and service to the citizens of Towns County. Coupled with the community support that he has received over the past several years, Osborn explained that it encouraged his decision to seek office.
Osborn, who previously ran for sheriff in the 2012 general election, presently represents the Macedonia district as a Towns County Republican Party delegate chairman.
“I will be the change you need and the voice you deserve,” Osborn publicly stated.
Osborn is the sole challenger in the Towns County sheriff’s race thus far.

1 How does Mr Osborn intend to pay for the additional training and services?
2 I was not aware of the many things that Mr Osborn feels Towns county is doing without.
3 Did the absence of Sheriff Clinton at the podium really cause the horrific traffic accident?
