WATCH: Sheriff explains why Hamilton school board is first target of new billboard campaign

Sheriff Richard Jones' first billboard was unveiled Monday at the intersection of Martin Luther King Boulevard and Maple Avenue in Hamilton.

Jones said he first targeted Hamilton City Schools because of its governing board.

“They have one of the worst reputations of all the (Butler County) school boards,” he told the Journal-News.

The billboard and others are privately funded and not paid for by taxpayers, according to Jones.
