Remember the Fallen Page 32

On the cover...The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office Honor Guard is proud to pay tribute to fallen law enforcement officers. This photograph was taken on August 18, 2016 by Woody Marshall of The Telegraph newspaper in Macon, Georgia. It shows the FCSO Honor Guard at the funeral of Eastman Police Officer Tim Smith. It was published the following day by the Telegraph and was positioned right below the masthead of the paper and took up about a third of the front page. Shown left to right are Lieutenant Damien Butler, Sergeant Randell Lattimore, and Deputy Rashad Wheeler. A storm broke out at the graveside service and these deputies stood their ground at attention through the torrential downpour without flinching. – This text was taken from a letter to Sheriff Ted

Jackson by Putnam County Sheriff Howard Sills.

The picture went viral online and was seen by

millions of people around the world.

As a Law Enforcement Officer, my funda-

mental duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard

lives and property; to protect the innocent

against deception, the weak against oppres-

sion or intimidation, and the peaceful against

violence or disorder; and to respect the Consti-

tutional rights of all persons to liberty, equality

and justice.

I will keep my private life unsullied as an

example to all; maintain courageous calm in

the face of danger, scorn or ridicule; develop

self-restraint; and be constantly mindful of

the welfare of others. Honest in thought and

deed in both my personal and official life, I will

be exemplary in obeying the laws of the land

and the regulations of my agency. Whatever

I see or hear of a confidential nature or that

is confided to me in my official capacity will be

kept ever secret unless revelation is necessary

in the performance of my duty.

I will never act officiously or permit personal

feelings, prejudices, animosities or friendships

to influence my decisions. With no compromise

for crime and with relentless prosecution of

criminals, I will enforce the law courteously

and appropriately without fear or favor, malice

or ill will, never employing unnecessary force

or violence and never accepting gratuities.

I will, as a representative of the Fulton

County Sheriff ’s Office, conduct myself in

a manner which will not bring discredit

to the agency. I shall obey the laws of the

United States, the State of Georgia, County

ordinances and local laws. I shall regulate my

personal affairs which will not bring justified

unfavorable criticism from my neighbors or

C O D E O F E T H I C S

other citizens or be involved personally in disturbances or incidents

that could discredit the agency. I will realize that I am obligated to

hold the public trust by striving to act in a professional manner. I

understand I must remain constantly vigilant and aware that I am

under the continuous observation by the public. For this reason, it

is essential that I strive to present myself in a professional manner

whether on or off duty.

I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and

I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the

ethics of the police service. I will constantly strive to achieve these

objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen

profession… law enforcement.

A MESSAGE FROM SHERIFF THEODORE JACKSON2 Theodore Jackson 3

The Fulton County Jail participated in a groundbreaking documentary that involved 2 sets of volunteers who went undercover within the main facility and the South Annex where women are housed. The highly acclaimed A&E Network series “60 Days In” will premiere part 1 of the Fulton County study on March 2, 2017 and part 2 will air later in the year. The volunteers were innocent citizens from other parts of the country with a keen interest in learning more about the criminal justice system by experiencing life inside a jail environment. This was an incredible opportunity for the Sheriff ’s Office to get firsthand accounts of the strengths and deficiencies of the Jail system. Procedures have already been enhanced based upon the findings of this study.

This Agency has worked with A&E previously as you may recall on the compelling program “Beyond Scared Straight” featuring the Youth Intervention Program. Arnold Shapiro Productions shot six episodes of the documentary series from 2012 to 2015 in Fulton County. Families worldwide have benefited from seeing what it is like to be a Fulton County Jail inmate through the eyes of these teens. Reruns of the program can be seen on the Spike TV network, iTunes, and YouTube.

Community Outreach touched 54,000 people in 2016 The Community Outreach Section galvanized the FCSO to do more good works in 2016. The Section commander calculates the Agency has touched more than 54,000 citizens through educational services, media outreach, safety classes, and charitable programs. You can learn more about this section in the center of this book which symbolizes how Community Outreach is the heart of the agency.

A new project for 2016 was the first annual Bicycle Safety Rodeo as part of the Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Program which is grant-funded through the State of Georgia with federal dollars. The Bike Rodeo was a great extension which involved deputies and staff teaching safety techniques and conducting bike inspections. We were able to give away more than 30 bicycles. The project was a success. This will be on our annual calendar for years to come.

Two thousand seventeen promises to be an exciting year full of challenges and opportunities to serve. Thank you as always for your support. We invite you to interact with us on social media which is a living journal of our endeavors to serve you.

The Court Services Division Commander supervises the Reserve Branch which is expanding. The Branch is comprised of certified deputies who volunteer their skills to assist in all four Divisions. There are 171 active reserve members who contributed almost 24,000 hours of service in 2016. The economic impact is more than $485,000 in savings to taxpayers based upon the costs of compensation for fulltime Deputy Sheriffs. Reserve deputies include 75 retirees whose experience benefits the FCSO.

New Grant Awards In 2016, the Fulton County Sheriff ’s Office was awarded a $1Million grant from the federal government to establish a Smart Reentry Program at the Fulton County Jail. As you can imagine, there was fierce competition for this grant. The Fulton County Sheriff ’s Office is one of only four law enforcement agencies in the country to receive this opportunity. The Smart Reentry Program will provide comprehensive assistance for selected inmates who will soon leave the Fulton County Jail. This will create opportunities for them to have a fresh start as they resume their lives after incarceration. The goal is to make the inmates’ reentry into society a success — as in leaving behind a life of crime, securing gainful employment, and having access to counseling.

The mental health and wellness component is significant given the statistics of persons receiving treatment. In 2016, mental health professionals made 37,807 contacts with patients within the Fulton County Jail. The pharmacy on-site filled 11,081 prescriptions for psychotropic medications throughout the year. Mental health services are critical to any blueprint for reducing certain crimes.

Enforcing Laws Deputies in the Law Enforcement Division will soon have body cameras. A grant award will fund this endeavor. The cameras will be instrumental in keeping deputies safe during encounters with the public. Body cameras are already in use at the Fulton County Jail. Inmate behavior has improved since the cameras went into use.

The Law Enforcement Division has a new 4-legged member, K-9 Diesel. Deputy Byron Thomas is paired with

Diesel. They underwent extensive training together before being sworn in for the start of their official duties as a team. Diesel is a Belgium Malinois trained as a dual-purpose canine with skills in tracking, detecting illegal drugs, and finding mobile telephones. The latter is a new function being utilized within the Fulton County Jail system where inmates are not allowed to have cell phones. This young team is surpassing expectations. In 2016, we also saw the retirement of K-9 Zoom who served with distinction in the United States Marine Corps working in Explosive Ordnance Disposal before joining the FCSO Bomb Unit.

Growth and Best Practices The efforts to increase the workforce have been bolstered by active recruiting. The Background Investigation Unit and Human Resources staff are working together to bring onboard more sworn and civilian employees. In 2016, there were 134 new hires and 64 promotions. Congratulations to new staff and newly promoted members. The agency benefits greatly by increasing our numbers with qualified candidates and new leaders as we look to the future.

Quality service and the highest standards have served the Sheriff ’s Office well especially as our Planning and Research team petitioned for reaccreditation by the Commission on Accreditation of Law Enforcement Agencies, CALEA®. The Agency voluntarily submits to this grueling evaluation to ensure staff members are utilizing the best practices to serve the citizens of Fulton County. The Planning and Research Section scrutinized hundreds of policies and files from all four Divisions before presenting the materials to assessors for inspection during an onsite visit. Reaccreditation is anticipated in early 2017.

Enhancements in the Fulton County Jail System Members of the Jail Division continue to offer opportunities for inmates to improve themselves in an effort to deter criminal behavior and ultimately reduce recidivism. The Culinary Arts Program which teaches basic kitchen skills has been expanded to female inmates. They are eligible to acquire this training to help them find legitimate employment post incarceration and learn about healthy food preparation and meals. This program is one of several offered to inmates including the Pre Literacy/GED Program, Floor Tech training, Canine CellMates, heroin detox, addiction recovery programs, and other counseling services.

Jail Security staff staged our first comprehensive mass evacuation drill at the Alpharetta Jail Annex. While all jail annexes and the main jail have Code Red drills on a regular basis within facilities, this was the first drill that involved moving a group of inmates from the North Fulton County facility to a nearby jail with assistance from our public safety partners. This was excellent training and will become a regular practice.

I t is indeed an honor to serve as your Fulton County Sheriff. Thank you for rehiring me for the 2017-2020 term. I am pleased to report the Sheriff ’s

Office is on course to fulfill our mission which is derived from mandates in the Georgia Constitution. We are also expanding community service to have a positive impact on more lives as we enforce State and Federal laws. In 2017, we are exploring new avenues to broaden our reach, increase efficiency, lend a hand to seniors, and inspire youth. It is the dedication of the men and women who are part of this organization that make these accomplishments possible.

Our mission to secure the Fulton County Justice Center Complex is enhanced by the grand opening of the new Command Center located inside the Justice Center Tower. This has been a long time coming. Citizens can be proud to have a state of the art control center to put eyes on more areas of this complex which is one of the busiest court systems in the Southeast. The new Command Center has access to 500+ high-definition cameras.

Sheriff Ted Jackson being sworn in by Probate Judge Pinkie Toomer for his 3rd term.

T his year’s deputy spotlight is on Captain Daniel Cochran. As commander of the Community Outreach Section, he has become the face of the

Fulton County Sheriff ’s Office. Captain Cochran has a strong background in law enforcement ranging from his time on the SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) team, in training as a firearms instructor, Jail Security, and other assignments. His transition to this relatively new role for him in Community Outreach has been outstanding. Captain Cochran has shown exemplary leadership and serves as a good example for everyone in the Agency — civilian and sworn.

Upon visual inspection, the casual observer will get the sense that Captain Cochran is squared away. It is practically impossible to find him out of order. His uniforms are crisply pressed and the placement of insignia on his shirts is always perfect. His presence sets a tone of excellence in the office. He shows up early and stays late.

When Captain Cochran took over as commander of Community Outreach, he rolled up his sleeves, literally, to reorganize the Agency’s education and charitable efforts. Captain Cochran devised a system of accountability to analyze and estimate how many people were reached by Sheriff ’s Office projects. His calculations indicate the Agency touched more than 54,000 citizens in the year 2016. In 2015, that figure was more than 30,000. The Captain continues to expand efforts to make a difference in the lives of

Fulton County residents through the donations of Thanksgiving Baskets for seniors, Toys for Tots, the FCSO Citizen’s Academy, media presentations, and via many other platforms.

Captain Cochran takes a special interest in helping young people through the Youth Intervention Program, YIP. He shows the teens that he can be tough and he also shares his caring side with them. The parents have written letters of appreciation to

Captain Cochran for enlightening their children concerning the consequences of bad choices.

The Captain has formed bonds with members of the Chaplains Program. He is a great representative for the Agency with business leaders. Captain Cochran fits in everywhere and has proven to have skills in diplomacy, leadership, and motivating others. He volunteers to assist other Divisions and he

gains their cooperation on Outreach projects.

Dan, as his friends call him, exemplifies everything a Deputy Sheriff should be and is an invaluable asset to the FCSO. In his off time, Dan enjoys spending time with his wife, Claudia, with whom he enjoys many culinary adventures. Aside from being a foodie, Dan can be found working on his prized Plymouth Fury and his vintage motorcycles. He also enjoys playing the guitar and skateboarding around town. He is a loyal friend to those who know him and an outstanding public servant.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH TOUCHES AN ESTIMATED 54,212 CITIZENS 1514

FIFTH ANNUAL CITIZEN’S ACADEMYSheriff Ted Jackson collaborated with the Community Outreach Section to establish the agency’s first Citizen’s Academy in 2012.

Classes cover CPR, courthouse security, Georgia law, self-defense, sheriff ’s office administration and budget. Academy participants take an extensive tour of the Fulton County Jail.

At the end of six weeks, there is a graduation ceremony to congratulate class members for their achievement. Sheriff Jackson presents graduates with certificates, identification badges to indicate their participation in the academy, and embroidered shirts.

The Reserve Branch consists of non-paid volunteers, who surpass service expectations by constantly rising to the occasion in performance of duties while responding to the agency’s and community’s requests for law enforcement assistance. The Reserve Branch continues to be a major contributor to the Fulton County Sheriff ’s Office by supplementing the agency with additional trained staff, supplies, and equipment. Members of the Reserve Branch remains consistent with the same training requirements established for full-time members. Auxiliary Officers who are Jail Certified maintain a minimum of 20 hours of training each year. Sworn Reserve Deputies complete a minimum of 40 hours of training per calendar year and an annual volunteer service requirement of 192 hours.

In 2016, the Reserve Branch aided the Sheriff ’s Office by providing 23,623 person-hours that equates to $485,000 in savings to taxpayers based upon the cost of utilizing full time deputies for those duties. Reservists assisted in the service of warrants, delivery of civil papers, traffic stops to the Law Enforcement Unit; courtroom security, metal detection, and Emergency Medical Services in the court facilities; inmate cell searches, visitation and zone security in our detention facilities; and added manpower for traffic and crowd control at parades, and other special community events within the county.

The Reserve Branch also provides emergency response units, motorcycles and other specialized vehicles that assist the agency and the citizens of Fulton County.

Members of the Reserve Branch provide a variety of community law enforcement services and are present at numerous activities during King Week to honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in January. Here are some other events supported by the Reserve Branch during the year.

Jail Division

The Jail Division has made continuous improvements in inmate management, building security, and delivery of medical and food services. Jail Commanders have taken time to listen to staff directly and understand the challenges faced daily. Several adjustments have been made to the training program, performance expectations, and philosophy at the jail.

The quality of services delivered and professionalism of the staff at the Fulton County Jail is an inspiration for the Sheriff ’s Office. The degree of scrutiny and quantity of change endured by staff over the past year is phenomenal.

Despite challenges, the staff members have risen to every occasion to self-evaluate, adopt external professional recommendations, and improve.

Canine CellMates Program

The Canine CellMates is a skilled-volunteer driven program that began in June 2013. The mission is to provide a better life for both the inmates in the Fulton County Jail and rescued shelter dogs from Fulton County Animal Services. The inmates in the program undergo an intensive 8-week course consisting of education, training and overall care for the

dogs. The goal is to positively change both the dogs and the inmates. During the 8-week program, each inmate has the opportunity to train and bond with their assigned dog. At the end of the training course, the dogs must pass the Canine Good Citizen test to graduate and are available for adoption by a “furever” family. Inmates learn viable job skills while gaining a new overall lease on life.

Population and StaffingA&E’s 60 Days In The Fulton County Sheriff ’s Office was the subject of the A&E Network documentary series 60 Days In: Atlanta. Two groups of participants volunteered to go undercover as inmates inside the Fulton County Jail for 2 months. The identities of the volunteers were concealed from staff and fellow inmates in order to capture a true picture of how the Jail functions. The production team from Lucky 8 TV set up cameras and microphones in housing areas. A mobile crew interviewed inmates during the production period. Inmates were informed about a documentary being produced and were given the opportunity to opt out.

Participants gained invaluable knowledge from inmates about their thinking and mindset. Some volunteers had opportunities to help inmates work through problems and concerns. Sheriff Ted Jackson and Chief Jailer Colonel Mark Adger were able to learn more about the effects of short to medium term incarceration on first time offenders. The production highlighted the challenges Jail staff face every day. This study yielded critical insight that was used to improve systems and security.

Sheriff Jackson gave praise to staff members who go above and beyond the call of duty while working under less than ideal circumstances and with a high level of stress. The Sheriff is grateful to the participants and the producers who made enormous personal sacrifices to take part in this extraordinary study.

The Fulton County Jail will be featured on seasons 3 and 4 beginning in 2017. The previous jail profiled was in Clark County, Indiana which was 5 times smaller than the Rice Street facility.

A&E’s documentary series Beyond Scared Straight produced 6 episodes at the Jail in 2012 to 2015. That program showed the experiences of teenagers and preteens in Sheriff Jackson’s Youth Intervention Program. Both documentaries are available on the A&E Network website and iTunes.

Sheriff Ted Jackson deputized K-9 Deputy Diesel in April of 2016. The 3-year-old Belgium Malinois was born in Holland. Diesel is a dual-purpose canine trained to track, apprehend suspects, locate illegal drugs, and mobile telephones. The latter skill has proven effective at Fulton County Jail facilities. Handler Deputy Byron Thomas and K-9 Diesel also patrol Fulton County as members of the Law Enforcement Division.

Deputy Thomas and K-9 Diesel trained together for 13 weeks (400 hours) before graduating from the program in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. This time allowed them to bond. They work quite well together. At 90 pounds, Diesel is considered large for a Belgium Malinois and has an impressive stance with great strength. Diesel is in Deputy Byron’s care and the dog will live with the deputy as is standard for all FCSO K-9’s.

The G.C.I.C. Section continues to provide the Sheriff ’s Office with the vital Security and Integrity and G.C.I.C. Certification and Recertification training as required by law. In addition the staff has acquired two new Record and Document Supervisors to help with management of the work site in preparation of the yearly audit. In the area of training, we continue to send staff to G.C.I.C. training to better improve our operation.

S.W.A.T. U N I T

S.W.A.T. is an acronym for Special Weapons And Tactics. The S.W.A.T. Unit members utilize special weapons and tactics to achieve a variety of law enforcement goals such as suspect apprehension, assistance to neighboring agencies, special escorts of high risk inmates, and other objectives as directed by Sheriff Jackson.

The Units are still working hard and accomplishing good work in the area of arrest of wanted persons and fugitives. They also provide invaluable training to Law Enforcement Personnel in the area of search and apprehension techniques used by the U.S. Marshal Service. In the middle of the year, we added one deputy to the FBI Cyber-Crimes Task Force. The Investigative Unit continues to work with other law enforcement agencies and has been very instrumental in helping the United States Secret Service in several arrests. Our HIDTA Task Force/Joint Terrorism Task Force members continue to work in protecting the community thru collaborative efforts.

The Crisis Negotiation Unit consists of specially trained deputies who are adept at de-escalating volatile situations through the use of skilled negotiation with suspects to achieve peaceful resolutions. It is critical for this unit to maintain communications with barricaded suspects, hostage takers, persons intending to harm others including themselves, and other individuals during a crisis.

The Sex Offender Section which deals with the registering and monitoring of offenders living in Fulton County was able to expand its Offender Watch Systems functionality by providing more information to Fulton County citizens. In addition, we have worked with the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office, U.S. Marshal Service and other Law Enforcement agencies in Fulton County by providing them with limited access into the system to better inform them of the offenders within their Fulton County jurisdictions. So far, the response has been positive and the monitoring of 1554 sex offenders is improving. The staff in this area believes in training and attends two major conferences (The Offender Watch Conference and the Sex Offender Register Training) which provides emphasis for new ways of performing the job, along with ways of improving communication about sex offenders among Law Enforcement agencies.

B O M B U N I TThe Bomb Unit was established in 1996, in preparation for the Summer Olympics. The unit responds to bomb threats or reports of suspicious packages occurring within the agency’s facilities and/or jurisdiction. Bomb Unit members often work in conjunction with other public safety agencies with the common goal of protecting the public.
