People Endorsing Scott

The following people have been kind enough to allow us to publish their support and endorsement of Scott to become your new Hamilton County Sheriff. We hope you will join them and show your support for Scott by voting for him on the Republican Primary voting day.


"I have known Scott Baldwin, and his family, for several years. Our friendship began in a business relationship and has flourished over the years. I continued to be impressed by his integrity and honesty; and, after seeing Scott on an episode of COPS one evening, I was surprised to learn much more about him. I learned about his military service to our Country and his extensive law enforcement background. Scott believes, as I do, that our Sheriff's Office should be about public service, both in the jail as well as in our community. I'm happy to hear Scott using the title Public Servant so frequently in his description of his law enforcement views. I believe that Scott is the right person to carry on the great job that Sheriff Carter has started. That's why I am supporting Scott Baldwin for Sheriff and I hope you will join me."

"I would like to endorse Scott Baldwin for the position of Hamilton County Sheriff. This endorsement is based on several years observing Scott as a friend and business acquaintance. I feel that Scott possesses several key qualities that would well serve the people of Hamilton County. Scott is a great business leader and one of the most intelligent and articulate individuals I have ever met. He has used his abilities to create a great business for his family, but in so doing has unselfishly aided many others expand and improve their businesses, including ours. Additionally, Scott’s honesty and professionalism has made him an honorable business companion to our business over the past few years, and his benevolence still impacts our business today. I also believe that Scott’s capabilities in business are an important adjunct to his public service experience. I feel Scott will utilize tax payer dollars in the most efficient means possible as a result of his entrepreneurial background.

Although I think Scott is capable of many careers, I know his passion is to serve as a leader in law enforcement. I honestly believe that Scott would serve Hamilton County to the best of his ability, and in the best interest to all of us who call Hamilton County our home. In my opinion, Scott’s professionalism, intelligence, leadership, business sense, experience, and honesty make him the best candidate to run the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office and that is why I am writing this endorsement."

"I have known Scott Baldwin for nearly two decades and cannot think of a more ideal candidate for Hamilton County Sheriff.

Scott and I were Patrol Officers with the Indianapolis Police Department (before I left the department to pursue a career with the FBI) and were each assigned to the East District precinct. Scott was a very proactive and talented Police Officer and received many awards for his outstanding service to the community and Police Department. Scott also earned the respect of his fellow officers, which is the highest award any Officer can receive. Every Officer knew that they could count on Scott if they needed help. Scott is a real team player and a true professional.

Scott has the knowledge and tools to be an outstanding Sheriff. Scott is resourceful, dedicated and driven for the cause. I know that Scott’s priorities as Sheriff will include:

• Protecting the children and citizens of Hamilton County
• Educating our children on the dangers of illegal drugs, Alcohol and the internet
• Open the communication between the Sheriff’s department and public
• Instill as sense of teamwork between the citizens of Hamilton County and the Sheriff’s department to fight crime
• Listen to the citizens of Hamilton County and promptly address their concerns

I am honored to highly recommend Scott Baldwin to be your next Hamilton County Sheriff. Scott will not let you down and will get the job done."

William Beachum
Former Indianapolis Police Officer and FBI Agent

"Scott is one of the sharpest guys I know. As a police officer/detective, he always gave 100%, whether on a street-level arrest or conducting a complex murder investigation. As a supervising Detective Sergeant, Scott always used a common-sense approach to problem-solving and was always fair with anyone he supervised. Scott is a success at whatever he does."

Andrew J. Starks
Owner, Omni Investigative Services

"I would like to endorse Scott Baldwin for Hamilton County Sheriff. I have known Scott for several years and believe him to be a person of great integrity, honesty and intelligence. It is impossible to gauge honesty, loyalty, integrity, or character from a resume; even one as impressive as Scott’s. You only really know whether a person has these traits by working with them in the trenches over several years. Scott Baldwin is the type of person that I would do a million dollar deal with on a handshake and never worry about whether he would fulfill his end of the bargain. There are very few people like Scott in this world. And, if Scott is our next Sheriff, I am certain he will be one hundred percent loyal to us and do whatever it takes to get the job done with integrity and professionalism."

Rex Dillinger
Owner, Northstar Land Entitlement & Development Service

"I have known and worked with Scott Baldwin, his clients and his employees for several years. The phrase that comes to mind when I think of Scott is ‘Utmost Integrity’ Scott has demonstrated to me, time and time again, that he is smart, ethical, and fair in all of his dealings. Additionally, Scott is one of the hardest working people I know. I am constantly amazed at all he accomplishes. I do not think Hamilton County could ask for a better man to be their Sheriff. I fully endorse and recommend Scott Baldwin for this position."

Jon N. Hayes
Senior Loan Officer, Hallmark Home Mortgage

"Scott Baldwin is one of the most dedicated, giving professionals that I know. His level of integrity is unquestionable and is only matched by his level of service. My business has benefited greatly from the services he has provided and I trust him completely. He exudes confidence and is able to quickly assess a problem and develop a solution. I feel that he would be an incredible asset to Hamilton County as our Sheriff and he has my complete support and trust."

Bryndon Preston

"I worked with Scott while I was serving as Community Prosecutor with the Marion County Prosecutor's Office. Over the course of my fifteen year career at MCPO, Scott was one of the most conscientious, honorable, and mission-committed officers with whom I had the pleasure of working. I always felt he should be cloned!"

Elizabeth (Libby) Milliken
Deputy Prosecutor

"Scott is a professional, experienced, intelligent, ethical and compassionate law enforcement officer. Add to that his business experience, his knowledge of the community, his fairness, and his leadership experience in the USMC and it would hard to find a better man for sheriff, or to lead most any other organization."

Fran Ashton
