Horace Moore, owner of The Times-Record, The Northwest Alabamian, The Journal-Record and The Pickens County Herald, will become the new sheriff of Winston County on New Year’s Day.
Horace Moore was named by Governor Kay Ivey to replace Sheriff Tommy Moore, who resigned due to the need for serious back surgery in the near future. Horace Moore, in addition to making a career in the newspaper industry, has been associated with law enforcement for more than 30 years. He has logged more than 16,000 hours of law enforcement service, completing both the Winston Co. Citizens Academy and the Winston Co. Reserve Academy.
