TAMPA — The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is stretched a little thin these days. One of the largest sheriff’s offices in the country, HCSO is short 208 deputies, officials said. There are another 170 openings for detention deputies to work in the county’s jails. "It’s something that we’re concerned about,” said Richard Lozada, the agency’s recruitment and screening manager. For the first time in several years, officials said, the agency is accepting applications from pre-certified law enforcement officers from other agencies who can bypass the six-month academy training for new deputies. That’s a big policy change for HCSO, which up until recently has preferred to train its recruits on its own. "This is a way for us to get officers out there on the road a little bit quicker,” Lozada said. Like many law enforcement agencies across Tampa Bay and the country, the sheriff’s office is facing a staffing crisis in the face of a large exodus as baby boomer officers and deputies reach retirement age. ... HCSO may not offer the highest salary of all the law enforcement agencies in Florida, but it does offer competitive benefits, McKinnon said. "I think once you look at the entire package, we’re certainly if not better than we’re equal to most agencies anywhere around,” he said. http://tbo.com/news/crime/hillsborough-in-need-of-deputies-as-baby-boomers-retire-20150117/?page=1 Link to HCSO employment page. http://www.hcso.tampa.fl.us/Careers/SubPages/Career-Opportunities/Law-Enforcement-Deputy.aspx "The training consists of a two week Sheriff's Orientation Training (S.O.T.), a six month academy and 8 to 10 weeks of module training. The Sheriff's Office will provide all books, materials, and uniforms (excluding footwear). Those selected for hire will receive $17.23 per hour (40 hour work week) and full benefits during this training period. After this training is completed the recruit is sworn in and their salary increases to $44,881.20 per year as a certified law enforcement deputy." |

How about this; Fundamentally alter the LEO/Criminal paradigm so as to negate the need for this type of bloated & paradoxically unattainable system of "confinement & rehabilitation".
Just sayin. |

Incarceration only works on the reformable of mind: let's start there. Degradation of the peaceful societal fabric can not be solved by further criminalization of criminals: At some point the fault of a serendipitous system of blind Logic will need to be dealt with lest the fabric be torn away completely. Proper recourse exists outside of our current execution of behavioral modification. It is excruciatingly obvious, however, dynamically rejected by a large number of constituency. |

I used to do a lot of work in Hillsborough County working mostly at night. The nature of my job meant that I had contact with HCSO Deputies sometimes. A damn good bunch of folks. Good people. No complaints here.

View Quote For starters, you're talking about a colonial society with low population density Most people lived and died within a 20 mile radius. There simply weren't the opportunities to engage in habitual criminal activities and if someone did, the locals took care of their own problems The Puritans, for instance, strongly enforced a societal model where you were expected to live around the green so the rest of the population could watch over you and keep you on the moral and legal straight and narrow path. Societal shaming through a variety of means too many to sit here and list If you want to go outside of American culture they used to lock you up for a whole lot less than what we do now. Ever hear of debtors prison? When's the last time you saw anyone in the US locked up because you were from outside the local town and you had no cash in your pocket. That wasn't unusual 80 years ago You still aren't offering any suggestions, you're pointing at the past and claiming things were done differently. To a certain extent they were, because society faced a different set of issues and they had different resources. But lets stay in the here and now. if you aren't happy locking up criminals, what is your solution. |
