MEET LAKESHA BURTON
"My campaign is about you, not about power, prestige or party.
Join us as we move FORWARD TOGETHER!”
Retired JSO Assistant Chief Lakesha Burton is the leader who will bring change to Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office. During more than 24 years of professional law enforcement experience she set records for reducing crime in the area she commanded for JSO. During her time as a patrol and enforcement commander in the Arlington/Beaches area, she and her team of officers reduced murders, gunfire, burglaries and home invasions more than did officers in any other zone. She’s ready to engage citizens, businesses and other stakeholders in a new brand of community policing.

Day 190: This has been a place of hope & refuge for so many grieving families in our city through the years. It is unfortunate that we need organizations like Families of Slain Children (F.O.S.C.I) but they are a necessity. Burton for Sheriff has proudly supported Mrs. Beverly Mcclain for many years as she has a heart for the people of Jacksonville. #stoptheviolence #365 #ForwardTogether #BurtonforSheriff #community

In celebration of National Police Woman Day, we want to salute all women police officers for your service. You wear many hats, you are sisters, daughters, mothers, aunts and grandmothers. Thank you for your service.
We would also like to highlight JSO’s first African American woman police officer, Retha Smith, who paved the way for many women in law enforcement, even our future Sheriff.
We are happy to celebrate all women police officers today, and send a special THANK YOU to the legendary retired Retha Smith for her endorsement of #BurtonforSheriff.
