"I have known Judge Russell Vaclaw since 2010 in my capacity as a law enforcement officer, first as a deputy and now as a Patrol
Supervisor. Over the years, I have appeared before him in hundreds, if not thousands, of proceedings.

In every one of those appearances, Judge Vaclaw has demonstrated consistent fairness and impartiality on the bench. He treats everyone who comes before his court — defendants, witnesses, attorneys, and law enforcement alike — with respect and dignity, regardless of the circumstances.

Beyond the courtroom, I have personally sought his knowledge and guidance on questions of law, and he has consistently helped me apply the law correctly to the situations I face in my duties. His grasp of the law and the Constitution, and his ability to apply both rightly, is something I have come to rely on and trust.

I recommend Judge Vaclaw without reservation."
