Little Deputies

Friday, May 29, 2015
Roachdale is a little safer with 18 new special deputies sworn in by Putnam County Sheriff Scott Stockton recently, even if those honorary deputies are only about three-feet tall. The sheriff said he was following up on a promise made to Cathy Proctor's second-grade class during Law Enforcement Appreciation Week in January. He told the students he would be back at the beginning of summer with ice cream if they behaved, and since the students held up their end of the bargain so did he. Stockton went back to Roachdale Elementary with ice cream and Junior Deputy badges and collectively swore in the youth with the understanding they mind their parents, be safe and watch the road.
