Letter: Carey well fit for Eagle County DA post

My name is Barry Kittay and I am writing this letter in support of Bruce Carey, a fellow veteran, for District Attorney of the 5th Judicial District, which includes Eagle, Summit, Lake and Clear Creek counties.

I am a United States Air Force veteran and a 20-plus year retired law enforcement officer. I have been a resident of Eagle county off and on since 1974, and I have known Bruce for more than 10 years. He is an excellent choice for district attorney because he is honest, has the highest level of integrity and is willing to listen to others. He will make a significant difference for the communities he serves and will build a strong and respectful District Attorney’s Office.

A veteran, whether active duty, discharged, retired or reserve, is someone who at some point wrote a blank check made payable to the United States of America, for an amount up to and including their lives. I have the upmost respect for Bruce and his service and I strongly endorse him.

Barry Kittay

Eagle County
