McLean County Sheriff's Lt. Matt Lane wants to succeed retiring Sheriff Jon Sandage. A 24-year McLean County sheriff’s deputy said Monday he will run for sheriff. Lt. Matt Lane is the department's support services commander. Incumbent Sheriff Jon Sandage said earlier this year he would not run for a third term. Lane said his experience and vision for the future of the department is what drives him to try for the position. "We have an opportunity to show the public that we are an extension of their communities, their county, and most importantly, their values,” said Lane. “We have an opportunity to do our part as an agency that is committed to ethically apply the spirit of law and help ensure that all people are treated with dignity and respect.”
