Security ‘Not Achievable’ for GOP Convention

Duval County Sheriff Mike Williams told Politico that security plans put forth for the Republican Convention in Jacksonville next month are “not achievable” under current time constraints.

Said Williams: “As we’re talking today, we are still not close to having some kind of plan that we can work with that makes me comfortable that we’re going to keep that event and the community safe.”

He added: “There’s a lot of things that need to happen: an event schedule nailed down, and being able to sign contracts and spend money so that we can prepare for this event. And none of that has happened yet.”
