Our deepest and most heartfelt condolences go out to the family and loved ones of the fallen deputy. We cannot begin to imagine the pain they are experiencing, but we want them to know that they are not alone. We stand with them—in grief, in remembrance, and in unwavering support.
To the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office family, we extend our full solidarity. The loss of one of your own is a wound felt deeply across all ranks and roles. The bond shared among those who serve together is unlike any other, and we recognize how devastating this moment must be for all of you. Know that your community sees you, honors you, and stands behind you as you navigate this immense tragedy.
Tonight, we mourn not only a fallen deputy, but a human being—someone who chose to wear the badge, to protect others, and to face danger so that others could feel safe. Their service will not be forgotten. Their sacrifice will not be in vain. Their name will be honored.
