Sheriff Buck Dawson
The law. Such as it is. Would rather be fishing.
About
Town sheriff. 52, heavyset, sandy hair going gray, big friendly face, gold badge. Knows everyone since kindergarten. Would rather be fishing. The law in Plainview is laid back.
In Their Own Words
12 years. Most exciting thing was when Pete's bowling trophy went missing. Turned out it was in his truck. So when people ask about strange lights at the Marvin place, I say, folks, it is probably nothing. Then I go.
