Sheriff Angered by Kamala Harris Using Him in Ad

A California sheriff is unhappy that he was featured in a new political ad for Kamala Harris in which she touts border security, which he says distorts the record.

"In light of a recent political ad put out by Kamala Harris featuring Sheriff Boudreaux, as well as other local law enforcement, the Sheriff wants to make it abundantly clear that his image is being used without his permission, and he does NOT endorse Harris for President or any other political office," Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux said in a statement issued to Fox News Digital .

Boudreaux, who has spent 37 years in the Tulare County Sheriff's Office and is currently president of the California State Sheriffs’ Association , says the video features Boudreaux and other local and state law enforcement when Harris was in the Central Valley under circumstances that he couldn't recall, but he did remember her attitude during the visit.

"As a matter of fact, I would like to point out the misleading information projected in that same political ad. In the ad, Harris claims to have spent decades fighting violent crime as a ‘border state prosecutor.’ The facts are that ‘then California Attorney General Kamala’ came to the Valley in 2014 touting a years-long investigation into a multi-national drug operation, with ties to Mexican drug cartels and prison gangs," Boudreaux said. 

Boudreaux said in that particular case, 11 people were arrested, including suspected "kingpin" Jose Magana of Dinuba.

"The truth is, Harris never cared about the cartels and did nothing to stop people from illegally crossing the border," Boudreaux said.
