IN HER OWN WORDS: Peyton, an out-of-state college student, who ended up in our jail this year, sent us this recording of an excerpt from a heartfelt email she wrote for our deputized staff. Thank you, Peyton, for being so honest and for taking the time to let our deputies know how much they meant to you. “You probably see people on the worst days of their lives all the time, and I imagine it can be easy to feel like your work goes unnoticed. I just want you to know that it didn’t go unnoticed with me. Your kindness mattered more than you probably realize, and it helped me get through a moment when I felt really small and afraid.” –Peyton, Incarcerated at County Jail #2, 2026 Kudos to our outstanding deputies who helped Peyton: Deputy Alvarez Deputy Thompson Deputy Gaspar Deputy Fox Deputy Lopez Deputy Jones To read Peyton’s full email, please see previous post. #vulnerable #scared #humanizethebadge #leadership #humanity #lawenforcement #thankyou

“I walked in scared, embarrassed, and unsure of what to expect, but I walked out with a deeper appreciation for the people who show up every day to do a job that most of us could never handle. Thank you for treating me with patience and kindness when I needed it most.” -Peyton, Incarcerated at County Jail #2, 2026 Peyton, a college student who found herself on the wrong side of the law, recently emailed us her gratitude for the treatment she received while in our custody. Specifically she thanked the following deputies for their professionalism and care: Deputy Alvarez Deputy Thompson Deputy Gaspar Deputy Fox Deputy Lopez Deputy Jones #humanizethebadge #leadership #humanity #lawenforcement #thankyou All identifying information related to Peyton has been removed from her email to protect her privacy.
