Former Pinal County sheriff discusses media projects and says he's running for Congress
Summary
Retired Sheriff Mark Lamb spoke about his public-safety media projects (Fridays with Frank, Emmy-winning PSAs, 60 Days In) and said he is running for the U.S. House seat being vacated by Andy Biggs, citing border security as a primary motivator.
Retired Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb described his continued media work and political plans during the KWCD broadcast.
Lamb recounted how the "Fridays with Frank" public-service videos began, noted two Emmy awards for sheriff's-office PSAs and said the department's TV work (including Live PD and 60 Days In) raised public awareness of jail and patrol operations. He encouraged listeners to follow his YouTube channel @RealAmericanSheriff, where he posts law-enforcement body-camera reviews and commentary.
On politics, Lamb said the border was his principal motivation to seek federal office. "I just I couldn't live with myself knowing that I had knowledge and experience and capabilities to deal with that," he told the program, adding he previously ran for U.S. Senate and is now running for the U.S. House seat Andy Biggs will vacate.
Lamb spoke about family projects (a Tennessee ranch and homesteading) and described continuing consulting and speaking work. He did not detail campaign policy platforms beyond emphasizing border security and said he is actively campaigning in parts of southern and central Arizona.
The segment was largely a retrospective and campaign announcement; it did not include policy specifics or campaign finance details.
