Sheriff Sid Gautreaux commends the men and women of the office that
served the community throughout the inclement weather. The office deployed
extra deputies as well as used Reserves to supplement efforts on bridges
and roads. The office experienced a decrease in call volume during the
inclement weather and only responded to thirty-three minor vehicle accidents.
Thanks to all that worked so hard!
DEPUTIES OF THE MONTH
Perry Frith, of the Burbank Substation, has been named Uniform Patrol Deputy of the Month.
Deputy Frith was hired by the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office in April of 2011. While off
duty, Deputy Frith learned that Financial Crimes Detectives were requesting assistance at a
motel in regards to a counterfeit 100$ bill. Deputy Frith had previously worked a similar case
on December 29, 2013 and had access to a surveillance photograph, which showed a subject conducting the transaction. This information assisted detectives in linking the subjects
under investigation and led to an initial arrest. As a result of Deputy Frith’s assistance, detectives were able to clear five cases and hope to link them to several other complaints.
Cinnamon Hines has been named the Corrections Deputy of the Month. Mrs. Hines
was hired in July of 1998 in Foreclosures and transferred to the Parish Prison in
March of 2000. Mrs. Hines is extremely well organized and shows the same level of
courtesy and attention to all co-workers, inmates, and family members alike. Her
strong presence has increased morale and brought new energy to the mailroom.
Deputy Hines has set a wonderful example for her co-workers.
Dy. Carey Cole, of the Foreclosures Division, has been named the Civil Deputy of the
Month. Ms. Cole was hired by the EBRSO in August of 2006 in the Foreclosures Division and has faithfully served in that capacity since then. Ms. Cole shows commitment and dedication on a daily basis to her work that has resulted in a significant increase in her productivity, averaging a data entry rate of about 4000 subpoenas per
month.
Deputy Cody Williams, of SCAT, has been named the Detective and Special Operations
Deputy of the Month. Deputy Williams was hired in February of 2009 in Corrections and
transferred to SCAT in December of 2010. On December 5, 2013, Deputies with EBRSO
and other law enforcement agencies conducted an undercover prostitution operation at a local hotel in Baton Rouge. Dy. Williams took part in the operation as part of the take down/
arrest team. Using information gained from other deputies assisting with the investigation,
Dy. Williams was able to draft a warrant and affect the arrest of a subject for human trafficking.
Lieutenant John Dempre, of the Range, has been named the Administrative and Support Services Deputy of the Month. Lieutenant Dempre was hired by the Sheriff’s Office
in December of 1998 in the Narcotics Division. He later settled at the Range in September of 2005. Lt. Dempre has an overwhelming respect and commitment to offering professional and quality training to those individuals that he meets. His approaches to
training tasks are comprehensive, in detail, and motivating. He continuously researches
his subject matters to insure that he offers the most accurate information to those individuals under his tutelage.
