Supports prosecuting cops who are found to have broken the law in their interactions with the public. Suggests forming a committee dedicated to investigating accusations of police malfeasance. Supports enforcing existing drug trafficking laws to address the drugs coming up through the I-15, but criticizes that he thinks the police, sometimes, are targeting out-of-state plates in an inappropriate way. Expressed that he did not support mask mandates and some other COVID-19 measures, on constitutional grounds.[1]
Ran for Utah Attorney General in 2020 as a Libertarian and in 2024 as a Democrat.
