Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels says he doesn’t yet know what it will cost the department to help with security for Trump’s visit.
“When you have a former president of the United States and that's running for reelection again, that and the attention that draws, both positive and negative, obviously, is an increase in cost because it’s an increase in staffing,” he said. “And we knew that coming into it when they called us to ask to come here.”
