Sheriff Garcia's promise of more boots on the ground
is as empty as this pair of boots.

 

If you don't believe us then read this.  The truth will scare you.

 

 

Kind of looks like one of the roll calls for the Sheriff's Office
with the shortage of personnel.  A study is in the members section that shows just exactly how shorthanded we really are and how we compare to agencies not only in Texas but across the nation.

Information for Officers & Families

 

In a recent three week period dedicated police officers in Harris County went from protecting and serving, some for 10 to 20 years, to not being able to make their next mortgage payment, or their child support. It’s being reported as many as 400 officers, mostly Deputy Constables, are being laid off. It's devastating for those mothers and fathers who are caught up in issues out of their control when it comes to family law matters... specifically child support.

 

HCDO is putting together some information, hoping to help those affected by these severe budget cuts. Read more here...
