If the 2022 swearing-in ceremony for Democratic Sheriff Danny Rogers is anything like the swearing-in held four years ago, then there will be a whole lot of pageantry, speeches, photo-ops and activity on Monday, Dec. 5 when that ceremony takes place at the Guilford County Courthouse in downtown High Point.
In December of 2018, then Guilford County Sheriff-elect Danny Rogers shook things up a little by being sworn in in High Point rather than Greensboro – the county seat and the place where county sheriffs had been sworn in in the past.
This year, three hours before Rogers is sworn in in High Point, other county officials who won in the November election will be sworn in at a Monday, Dec. 5 morning ceremony in Greensboro at a meeting of the Guilford County Board of Commissioners in the Old Guilford County Court House.
Rogers, who was born in High Point and lives in Jamestown, served as an officer in the High Point Police Department years ago and has other close ties with the city. He graduated from Southwest Guilford High School in High Point.
in 2018, Rogers – the first African-American sheriff in the history of Guilford County – beat out six-term office holder Sheriff BJ Barnes, and, this year, Rogers beat Republican contender Phil Byrd to hold onto the job as Guilford County’s top law enforcement officer for another four-year term.
Rogers is inviting the public to the ceremony, which will be held at 1 p.m. Monday in Room 4-A of the courthouse in High Point.
On Wednesday, Nov. 30, the Guilford County Sheriff’s Department sent out a public invitation for those who wish to attend.
“Sheriff Danny H. Rogers cordially invites the community to join him as he is sworn in for his second term as the Guilford County Sheriff,” it reads. “The swearing-in ceremony will be conducted by The Honorable Superior Court Judge R. Stuart Albright. Sheriff Rogers was first sworn into the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office on December 3, 2018. … Sheriff Rogers is honored to be re-elected as your Sheriff and he asks that you join him in entering his second term.”
Oh yea, let me get 12/5/2022 on my calendar!
A joke for another 4 years. Guilford County residents didn’t vote (over 200,000) and now we have to live with the cowboy hat bow tie Sheriff who cant hire people and can’t keep people
Sorry, Halloween costume has already been stored for next year.
Not even going to read any news on him. Sadly the photo you posted with the two young females Sgt are two of four he promoted with no training or experience. One could only patrol Jamestown cause she couldnt think outside the box. The other came from transporting inmates who couldn’t even use the county computer in the car. Now both are making big bucks even a nice raise coming while the worker bees still carry the work load. He’s crooked and racist.
I wouldn’t go if they paid me. Better be out there fighting crime!
Hope this one is better than the last clown act’s and he can act more like a Sheriff if not then it will just another
Dog and Pony Show with all the red and bright blur outfits and 10 gal hat and cowboy boots.
I’m sorry Danny, I have a grease trap i need to clean that day…maybe next time…assuming there IS a next time.
Will he be under the same tent as the trapeze artists and clowns?
What a joke.
