For the record, the sheriff was elected in 2012, and has lived in Council since 2000

Exactly.. Example..Living in Coeur d'Alene while working I saw a guy pull into an RV spot from New York city and immediately went down and got Idaho plates then calling himself a local. Living now in Idaho county(largest county in Idaho) that connects to Adams county just south of here and having lived in Valley county for 40 years also connecting to Adams county I can say with ease and accuracy that police departments do more hiring "out" then they do hiring locals. Wish it was different but it isn't anymore.

"Local" ain't always local.
Some places, being a local depends on where your grandpap was born.

I used to live in Idaho county. Lots of washed out big city cops end up there.
The Sheriff saying they were "cow smart" is different than a rancher saying they were cow smart. Saying "shu, cow" is not being cow smart, let alone bull smart.

...I'd say that small rural communities need to make a special effort to comprise their police force from members of the community.
Doing so would go a long way towards eliminating situations like this.
In the big cities, you've got big city stuff and the police are necessarily going to have to be hard asses to do what they're called upon to do. Occasionally, bad things are going to happen as a result of that... Give them a pass, huh? Blame it on the community.

There's know work in Council and since the Boise-Cascade mill closed down years ago most of the working force moved on except for a few loggers and ranchers of course, and those retired.
Not much of a pool to draw from for local employment unless hiring out!They(Adams county) could and have hired from New Meadows(Adams county) to the north or McCall(Valley county) not much south except Cambridge(Adams county)...
I spend alot of time at my best buddy's place I helped build at Pine Ridge(Adams county) where he pays Adams county taxes with a Council phone number that saved my bacon in a snowmobile wreck.
Not much down there in Adams county for employment other than Forest service or county work.

It'd probably take a downturn if they started posting. Dave You mean like this one from family who was actually there.. “Jack, Donna and Rowdy, Donna’s nephew, showed up to take care of their bull. Jack was bent down and a second from shooting the bull when a cop grabbed him from the back and spun him around. He shot Jack in the stomach and the other cop shot him 4 times in the chest. The cops were standing behind Jack.
Donna and Rowdy rushed down to Jack and the cops threw them face down on the ground and had guns to their head. Between what happened to her husband and the rough treatment, she had a massive heart attack. She was life flighted to Boise. She had another last night. That is the "ONLY" account from "ANYONE" who was there when it happened..Like it or not, there is know buddy else that was there's account of this,only his.

I don't jump into the cop bashing threads mainly because I'm a Kentuckian and the police here generally behave in a manner that I deem appropriate. In many ways Kentucky is a closed society and the police in Kentucky are a part of it.
But this one sounds like a stinker.
I'd say that small rural communities need to make a special effort to comprise their police force from members of the community.
Doing so would go a long way towards eliminating situations like this.
In the big cities, you've got big city stuff and the police are necessarily going to have to be hard asses to do what they're called upon to do. Occasionally, bad things are going to happen as a result of that.
But these little rural communities need to work hard and pay what it costs to have police who understand the society,..who know that society that they're working in, and to react in an appropriate manner. Bristol I agree with with you on this one. It generally works better in smaller communities. Look at the community reaction to the situation in Richmond. What tragedy.
