What is it about County Attorney David Yocom?

When he was running for office he made all those promises to "protect and serve." Now we can't find him -- he has gone into seclusion or thinks he is the county "castle king."He doesn't seem to understand proper protocols for any mode of communication (phone, fax, e-mail), or is it he feels he is now our "master" and not obligated to communicate with the citizens of Salt Lake County?

Yocom needs to remember it was the citizens that believed his promises and elected him to his current office. I have sent David Yocom no fewer than four e-mail messages, which were never answered. I have called his office, where he makes it impossible to contact him. I have left messages to have him call me back, when he is available, and he never responds.

David Yocom, you need to serve the citizens or submit your resignation for failure to keep your promises.

As my city, West Jordan, continues its slide into the "pit" of corruption, Yocom is "lost in space." Wake up, Yocom, and fulfill the measure of your office. We don't need any more do-nothing "elected officials" who think they are "above the law" or don't have the stomach to execute the "rule of law."

Yocom, you have been a major disappointment to many who once thought you were a man of integrity.
