Thanks for all your crime fighting projects,especially how your keeping the Sex Offenders under control and the way you got rid of All the Illegal Gaming Places, Not to mention how your 12 man patrol division makes Bacliff the beautiful waterfront community that is, a great place to live and raise a family. Looking forward to your next citizen patrol class.

Thanks Tommy! Its all due to team effort and Im proud to be able to work with Sheriffs Office on all these projects! I look forward to having you in the next Constable Citizens Academy.

You should be running for Sheriff.

As her former criminal justice instructor, I want to say that if Pam Matranga is as good a constable as she was a College of the Mainland student, she deserves to be reelected.

I don't like it that the Sherif Dept. is trying to take some of her Glory.. We all know it is because of Constable Matranga that bacliff is a safe place to live. I agree with Mad Dog, She should run for Sheriff and expand her crime fighting methods through out the entire County!! SHES THE ANSWER TO ALL THE COUNTYS CRIME PROBLEMS! GO GET EM PAM!

I finally got a chance to meet Constable Matranga recently at a get together! I am very pleased to say she is everything I thought she would be. She is someone I look forward to having a long professional relationship with.

One thing that the community is thankful for , is how Pam Matranga and her Team make sure on Halloween that the Registered Sex Offenders aren't Targeting our children. Not just on Halloween but all year long. Not only does she look out for are children, But she is very dedicated to the Elderly. People do your homework we need her. Make sure and vote #3 Pam Matranga

Great interview. Think I'll go vote FOR MATRANGA tomorrow (5/14) and then head over to 61st St. for some Chicken & Dumplings!

One of the most dedicated public official's in the bay area. Pam is smart, funny, honest and hard working..will not stop till the work is done. Let's continue making our area one of the safest communities out there by re-electing The best woman for the job..Pam Matranga!

Having known Pam for most of 10 years, I can tell you that she is hard working, dedicated, and HONEST! She has contributed a lot toward cleaning up her part of the County. I remember what it was like 30 years ago, and Kemah and San Leon were no place to raise a family! Thanks to Pam and a small group of dedicated LEO's from several branches of law enforcrment, ur children and families are now safe in her District. Now, there is a group wanting to take us backward. We cannot allow that to happen!
