As a Law Enforcement Officer, my fundamental duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation, and the peaceful against violence or disorder; and to respect the Constitutional rights of all men to liberty, equality, and justice. I will keep my private life unsullied as an example to all; maintain coura

geous calm in the face of danger, scorn, or ridicule; develop self-restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others. Honest in thought and deed in both my personal and official life, I will be exemplary in obeying the laws of the land and the regulations of my Office. Whatever I see or hear of confidential nature or that is confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret unless revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty. I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, animosities, or friendships to influence my decisions. Without compromise for crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and appropriately without fear or favor, malice, or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or violence and never accepting gratuities. I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of LAW ENFORCEMENT service. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen profession...law enforcement.

The Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office Special Response Team would like to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to the Ladies Auxiliary of the Three Rivers Fire District for their incredibly generous donation to our team.
At this point, we are honestly running out of words to describe the support we have received from this community.
Our local businesses have stepped up. Community organizations have stepped up. Citizens have walked through our doors and quietly made donations, with some asking for absolutely no recognition in return. And now, even members of our local fire service family are stepping forward to support our Special Response Team.
For a small community like ours, that means more than we could ever adequately put into words.
The men and women of this team aren't asking for the newest equipment simply because we want it. We are trying to give our deputies the equipment, training, and resources they need to safely handle some of the most dangerous and difficult situations our community can face. Every piece of equipment we are able to purchase and every training opportunity we can provide makes our team better prepared when someone in our community needs us most.
The truth is, without this community rallying around our team, we would simply be treading water.
Instead, you have helped us move forward.
Every donation—whether it is $20 or thousands of dollars—moves us a little closer to where we need to be. Every fundraiser, every business that lends a hand, every organization that makes a donation, and every citizen who simply tells us they support what we're doing reminds our team exactly why we do this in the first place.
This is our home too.
These are our neighbors, our friends, our families, and the people we see every day. When the worst day of someone's life happens, we want to be as prepared as possible to answer that call and bring everyone home safely.
To the Ladies Auxiliary of the Three Rivers Fire District, thank you for believing in our team and for standing beside us.
And to every citizen, business, organization, first responder, and anonymous donor who has supported us along the way—please know that we see it, we appreciate it, and we will never take it for granted.
Coshocton County has shown up for us in a way we never expected. Our promise is to keep working, keep training, and keep doing everything we can to be worthy of that support.
From every member of the Special Response Team, thank you, Coshocton County.
We truly couldn't do this without you.
