The Sheriff's Office received a tip that a deputy had a concealed sharp-edged handmade weapon also known as a shank that was provided to him by an incarcerated person. After developing probable cause during the investigation, it was confirmed that both the deputy and the inmate were involved.
This behavior is a betrayal of public trust and breaks my heart. It jeopardizes the safety of both our employees and our incarcerated population whom we are interested to keep safe. It is important to note, however, that this action of one individual is not a reflection of the values of the hard-working and dedicated men and women who have committed their lives to public safety.
