Jackson County Sheriff F.J. "Rocky" Harnen endorsed attorney general candidate Katherine Robertson.

Katherine Robertson’s campaign for attorney general announced Tuesday the endorsement of Jackson County Sheriff F.J. ‘Rocky’ Harnen. In the endorsement, Harnen praised Robertson’s “experience, track record and readiness to serve,” the campaign said.

“Katherine Robertson is the obvious choice for Attorney General. Her steady leadership of the AG’s Office for nearly a decade and her unapologetic support for law enforcement ensure me that she is ready to take on this role. I look forward to helping her win,” Harnen said. 

Robertson welcomed the endorsement.

“I’m honored to have Sheriff Harnen’s trust and confidence,” she said. “Together, we’ll stand tall against crime, defend our communities, and ensure Alabama remains a place where justice isn’t just a word—it’s a way of life. As Attorney General, I’ll continue pressing the fight, ensuring anyone in Alabama who breaks our laws or threatens public safety meets the full weight of our state’s justice system.” 

Harnen’s endorsement of Robertson marks the latest major law enforcement endorsement of Robertson since entering the race.
