County Clerk likes to put his hands on people, very unprofessional. One day he'll put himself in danger acting out like that.

Kip cassavaw is the most unhinged unprofessional clown I've ever seen. He's lucky Sean is composed.

Wow a 1.3 rating ! It’s probably because your county clerk doesn’t respect our constitution. That is crazy that the higher officials allow this man to act like that as a public servant . This is the next person/people that we the people need to hold accountable. We will be seeing you all soon with cameras by the way .

I usually never want to see people lose their job. The county clerk who thinks it’s ok to put his hands on a member of the public does not deserve to work for the public. You can’t go around enforcing your opinion. Know your job and your roll. This is shameful hopefully this man is no longer employed.

Beautiful building but many unprofessional people. I see you guys know of the county clerk. He is AWFUL! He walks around with a chip on his shoulder and he's so fake! He will be nice as pie to certain people that go in there and then there's some he's extremely rude to. I'm shocked he still works there. He's a 🫏 kisser 💋
