My Mission
To provide Douglas County with experienced leadership that understands both the realities of the job and the weight being a law enforcement CEO carries. I believe in protecting our Constitutional rights, supporting the men and women of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, ensuring criminals are held accountable, and working collaboratively with residents, businesses, and local leaders to keep our county safe.
Kieth Siebert for Sheriff
A little about me....
I am 55 years old and was born in Wenatchee. I was raised in the Quincy area. After graduating high school, I joined the U.S. Army, serving in Military Intelligence as a German linguist. I am married to Leslie, owner of Columbia EMS in Quincy and part-time paramedic in Douglas and Chelan Counties. We are helping raise two elementary age boys, who are enrolled in the Eastmont School District. We also have two adult children and five grandchildren from a previous marriage.
I started my 29- year law enforcement career with the Grant County Sheriff’s Office. I began as a Corrections Officer then advanced through the ranks as a Patrol Deputy, Patrol Corporal, Patrol Sergeant, Special Operations Sergeant, and Patrol Lieutenant. This progression gave me firsthand experience at every level of the Sheriff’s Office; from jail operations and patrol to supervision, special operations, and command leadership.
That training, education and experience helped when I was selected as the Chief of the Quincy Police Department. I served more than five years, where I led the agency’s staff, managed budgets, implemented modern policing strategies, and built strong partnerships with the community.
My Priorities...
I believe that effective law enforcement depends on healthy and well-trained law enforcement professionals. Focusing on that, I was able to help change the culture through effective and thoughtful hiring, officer training, officer wellness, and getting the right tools and equipment for the staff.
As the Sheriff, I will prioritize:
1. The health and wellness of our staff
2. Modern equipment and resources
3. Training and education
4. Transparency and Community Engagement

My Priorities
First Priority as Douglas County Sheriff
Law enforcement carries unseen burdens. My priority is to strengthen mental health resources, peer support, and training so our deputies have the tools they need — both on and off duty.
Second Priority as Douglas County Sheriff
Being fiscally responsible doesn’t mean buying cheap — it means buying smart. I will prioritize dependable, up-to-date equipment that protects deputies and taxpayers alike.
Third Priority as Douglas County Sheriff
Strong training builds strong decision-making. By investing in realistic, ongoing training, we strengthen public trust, improve safety, and support our deputies in doing the job right.
Fourth Priority as Douglas County Sheriff
Committed to open communication, accessible leadership, and meaningful community engagement. That means explaining decisions clearly, listening to concerns, and ensuring accountability at every level of the Sheriff’s Office.
I choose values over politics.
Values matter because they guide every decision we make. In this video, I’m responding to a question I received by email about my personal values and how they’ll shape my leadership as your Douglas County Sheriff.
I hope you’ll take a few minutes to watch, and I welcome respectful conversation. Our community deserves leadership rooted in integrity, accountability, and service—not politics.

My name is Erin Omlin. I served as Kieth Siebert’s Administrative Assistant during his time as Chief of Police at Quincy Police Department.
Simply put, Kieth is a great leader. Kieth is the kind of leader who recognizes and builds strengths in others while simultaneously challenging their weaknesses. Selfless in his approach, Kieth would rather build others into success than glorify his own. For me this looked like trusting me with the department’s accreditation program and sending me to leadership Training. These experiences not only strengthened my professional profile but also built my character to take on greater endeavors in the future.
As an individual in a support role, Kieth ensured that my avenues toward success were available and impactful to the mission of the department.
Kieth is a communicator. There is always a seat at his table to engage in respectful and open conversation. I have had many conversations with Kieth that did not necessarily go my way, but I have always been empowered to speak in his presence. He was the first to teach me about emotional intelligence, and I learned a great deal just by
observing how he listens to others and holds space for differences and ideas.
Kieth always gives his time, compassion and honesty to those that surround him, and he continues to be a trusted leader in my life today.
I would encourage anyone to ask Kieth, “what is your why?”. There is always a “why” behind Kieth’s leadership that drives his style of impactful communication and collaboration with the community and individuals that he serves. I can think of no one better to represent the citizens of Douglas County.
Vote Kieth Siebert, Sheriff, Douglas County.
A word from Larry Ledeboer
I worked with Kieth Siebert for most of my twenty years with the Grant County Sheriff’s Office until he became Chief of the Quincy Police Department.
Kieth was my immediate supervisor as Sergeant and Lieutenant.
It is my distinct honor to recommend Kieth Siebert for Douglas County Sheriff.
He embodies all the best qualities the people of Douglas County could want in a Sheriff. His experience in law enforcement has prepared him at every level for policing in the 21st century. He handled thousands of patrol calls as a deputy, corporal and sergeant.
As the Sergeant of Special Operations, he also managed the GCSO work at the Gorge concerts. This required him to make decisions that ranged from security, traffic and administration to name just a few. Each weekend he was responsible for a small city.
I could give many more examples of why I believe Kieth Siebert should be elected as the next Douglas County Sheriff.
Kieth is honest, hardworking and compassionate.
But - most importantly - Kieth believes the law applies to all people.
He will not favor any individual or group. He will enforce the law equally for all.
I urge the voters of Douglas County to elect Kieth Siebert as the next Douglas County Sheriff. You have the chance to elect an individual who will make a difference for your county every single day.
-Larry Ledeboer
A word from Maria Valle
To Whom It May Concern,
I am honored to write this letter of recommendation in support of Kieth Siebert's candidacy for Douglas County Sheriff.
I had the privilege of working alongside Chief Siebert for approximately five years through Quincy Partnership for Youth and the Quincy School District. During that time, I saw firsthand his dedication to serving our community, especially our youth and families. He consistently demonstrated professionalism, integrity, and a genuine commitment to building positive relationships with those he served.
One of Chief Siebert's greatest strengths is his approachability. Whether he was working with students, parents, educators, or community partners, he made people feel heard and respected. He was always willing to listen, collaborate, and find solutions that benefited the community.
Chief Siebert earned the respect and trust of our community through his actions. He led with fairness, compassion, and accountability, while maintaining a strong commitment to public safety. His leadership fostered partnerships between law enforcement, schools, and
community organizations, creating an environment where people felt comfortable working together to address challenges.
Based on my experience working with him, I am confident that Kieth Siebert possesses the character, leadership, and experience needed to serve as Douglas County Sheriff. I wholeheartedly support his candidacy and believe he will continue to serve the community
with honor, integrity, and dedication.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Maria Valle
A word from Deb Adams
Kieth Siebert. When I heard Kieth is running for Douglas County Sheriff, I immediately thought, “Lucky Them.”
I’ve known Kieth in several different capacities. My first encounter with him was when he was Quincy Police Chief. Kieth struck me as someone who was confident and capable. I am a business owner and citizen of Quincy so knowing that we were in good hands is important. When Kieth introduced himself to me, his warm smile told me he is
approachable. His strong handshake told me he knows who he is and what his role was in protecting our businesses in Quincy. His conversation and questions told me Kieth Siebert is the real deal. As a Real Estate Broker/Owner in Quincy, when I tell my prospective clients that the Quincy Police Department is on top of our issues, that’s a
true story. I can speak of this from the present tense because when Kieth told me he was leaving the Quincy Police Department, he also told me he had confidence in his replacement. This confidence told me that Kieth’s leadership and training skills were top notch. He was leaving us in good hands.
When asked if he would join the new Veterans Operation Creation, Kieth agreed to play a role in our establishment. Kieth is a US Army Veteran. His presence, support and participation added a great deal of stability to our new organization. When he moved to East Wenatchee, he reluctantly resigned from our Board, knowing that being a part of an organization means being present. He couldn’t be that for us, and I respect him for knowing what was best.
In reflecting on my knowledge of Kieth’s strengths, these are the words that come to mind…Capable, Confident, Leadership, Heart, Approachable, Protection, Service, Stability, and Respect. Douglas County needs a person with these strengths leading them through all things affecting life in today’s times. Kieth Siebert for Douglas County Sheriff.
A word from Tyson Voss
I worked for Kieth while he was in one of his supervisory roles. He has a huge heart and cares for his people. Clearly that shows just in this small video. Not accepting campaign donations should tell you he's an honorable guy that can't be bought and is doing this for love of his community. If I lived in Douglas County, I would vote for Kieth!!
-Tyson Voss
A word from Bobby Garrett
Kieth has arrested me that is very true and I he was always a great mentor and one of the reasons I got my life straightened up. I have so much respect for him and from day one that I met him I’ve always considered him a friend.

A word from Scott Allbrook
I worked with Keith when he was at the jail, started patrol, was an FTO, Sgt, in charge of Gorge Patrol, and a Field Lt. Keith has always been a professional, willing to help his coworkers and the citizens who he worked for.. It was a sad day for Grant County when a Deputy of his Caliber left the department, but it was a time for Quincy to shine, as he excelled at his job there. When I heard that Keith was retiring from Quincy, I took the time to make the trip over to see him and wish him all the best... but really I wanted to thank him for his service, his friendship and all the opportunities that he provided me to be a better person... We are still friends and will block aisles in the grocery stores for a minimal half hour chat session.... Douglas County will receive Transparency and Integrity having Keith as their Sheriff... Heck... I'd almost be willing to come out of retirement and be a janitor at his office for the chance to work with him again....
Scott Allsbrook
A word from Tracy Kissler
Keith is compassionate, tough, and fair. I attended Highschool with Keith. Even when I was in a bad spot he always treated me fair, offered the help I needed. Even put me in cuffs once and still I can say he is the right guy for the Job... Can't think of a better fit..

Siebert's Blog
This blog is a place to talk honestly about public safety and leadership in our county — what’s working, what needs improvement, and how we can be smarter stewards of taxpayer dollars while never compromising officer safety or community trust. From reliable equipment and training to wellness, accountability, and transparency, I believe good leadership starts with listening and making practical, informed decisions.
