Two Bernalillo County
commissioners are asking the county sheriff to reconsider allowing the
long-running TV show "Cops" to film in the area.
In a letter sent to
Bernalillo County Sheriff Dan Houston on Saturday, Commissioners Debbie
O'Malley and Maggie Hart Stebbins says the show's "sensational focus on
criminal activity" would portray the county as a dangerous place to work
and live. They also argue members of the public may be reluctant to report
crimes if they think a TV crew might show up with authorities.
. However, Houston
announced Thursday that the show would start filming with his department in
April for its 26th season. The episodes would air in the summer.
