Christmas Parade 2020

We appreciate the efforts of Mayor Mike Olinger, town manager Chris Hively, and those members of the Town Council who have supported our efforts of a Main Street Christmas Parade in 2020. Unfortunately, due to Virginia Department of Health restrictions we are unable to host this event within the town limits.

This will be our third year hosting a Christmas parade for the Culpeper community. Although we have met continued resistance by some within the Town Council, we are pleased to announce our event will be even more festive than previous years.

“The Culpeper Christmas Parade” will be held on Sunday, December 6, 2020 in Brandy Station at 5:00 PM, in partnership with the Brandy Volunteer Fire Department. This great hometown family event will also include a Christmas Village featuring Santa Shops, lots of lights, music, nativity scenes, floats, concessions, and one very special guest from the North Pole.

Nation braces for election violence, ‘guns, batons, Molotov cocktails’

Election Security — Statement of Sheriff Scott H. Jenkins on Security During the Election:

My office has received many inquiries from the community about security during the election. For obvious reasons I cannot reveal the substance of our planning but the citizens of Culpeper should rest assured that I and my deputies are prepared to protect the right of every citizen to vote on election day.

I have met with the head of the electoral board in Culpeper and he is aware of my planning and preparation.

As election day approaches and on election day itself, we will continue to monitor events in Culpeper and in surrounding jurisdictions which might impinge upon the rights of citizens to vote.

Regarding security let me be clear: my office will deal swiftly and appropriately with unlawful activity from any individual or group, no matter political affiliation, to protect every citizen’s right to cast their ballot.

We are fortunate to live in a community with strong ties of affection and respect between those of us who make our home here. In the end we are all neighbors and we all know how to rely on each other in times of difficulty. I plan to rely on that strength if the need arises.

Citizens should prepare to vote on election day with confidence and a sense of security. I look forward to seeing you at the polls to extend my hand in friendship-one neighbor to another.

VA Supreme Court upholds dismissal of ACLU challenge to Culpeper 287(g) program

ACLU: agreement between Sheriff Scott Jenkins and ICE, the only one of its type in the state, encourages racial profiling, erodes trust between police and the community, and wastes taxpayers’

10/22/2020

www.courts.state.va.us

Today the Virginia Supreme Court confirmed what people with common sense have known all along -- the Culpeper Sheriff’s Office cooperation with federal law enforcement on illegal immigration is entirely appropriate under the law.

Today's decision denied a suit filed by Culpeper residents to stop Culpeper Sheriff Scott Jenkins’ cooperation with the federal 287(g) program. That program is used to identify illegal aliens in the country who are housed in local jails on other charges.

Michael McClary and Christina Stockton filed the suit naming the Sheriff and the Culpeper County Board of Supervisors as defendants, alleging that expenditures associated with the program were unconstitutional and should be prohibited.

The Court brushed aside McClary and Stockton's suit, saying that it amounted to nothing more than their disagreement with the Sheriff’s policy decision to enter into the 287(g) agreement. The Supreme Court’s decision this morning upholds an earlier decision throwing the case out of court.

The Supreme Court also said that, as constitutional officers, Sheriffs are not subordinate to the local government. Sheriffs' powers exist independently from the local government and do not rely on them for authority to act.

"I am very pleased with the Supreme Court’s decision. I knew I was right all along in my understanding of the 287(g) program, and am pleased that the Virginia Supreme Court has confirmed my understanding. I appreciate the enormous community support and will continue to do everything in my power to keep this community safe while upholding and defending our Constitution."

Deadwood Trail Haunted Forest

Over the past three years, the Deadwood Trail Haunted Forest has evolved bringing something new each year, only getting better, and the same was planned for this year as well.

However, after numerous conversations, we chose NOT to open Deadwood Trail for the 2020 season. The safety concerns of our volunteers, actors and the community is important to everyone.

We know that this is a disappointment to many, but this will allow us to continue to work on our haunt and provide you with bigger and better attractions in 2021. We thank you for the enormous community support each year and we look forward to seeing everyone next year!

Tucker Carlson, Fox News, 9/14/2020

"The Sheriff’s Office continues to hear citizen concerns about the direction our country is moving. They worry the violence in other areas will occur in Culpeper. We believe an informed citizenry will greatly lessen the chance for those things to happen in our community." "Citizens should alert themselves to the true nature of this violence and realize the intent is for it to continue across our nation during the months ahead. Antifa and the Black Lives Matter movement is not peaceful and at their heart are violent. They may bring their violence to any community at any time and especially where they see weakness in local government officials. These are a few of the many examples across our nation." ~Sheriff Scott Jenkins

Sheriff Scott Jenkins speaks at Culpeper's Board of Supervisors meeting July 7, 2020

"I encourage the Culpeper Board of Supervisors and all Virginia localities supporting the Second Amendment to send a clear message to Richmond in the form of resolutions declaring that they will not exercise local authority under Virginia Code 15.2-915(E). The Governor is calling a special session of the general assembly and further gun control will be a focus. Citizens should contact local and state representatives to have their voices heard. I’ll say again, if the previous bill, or similar legislation, to ban so-called assault weapons and high capacity magazines is passed, I will swear in thousands of Reserve Deputy Sheriffs in Culpeper. My authority is not limited to swearing in only residents of Culpeper County and I intend to exercise my authority fully within my discretion to do so. We will need additional help with background investigations and I ask for any current or retired law enforcement officers interested in volunteering their time to assist in screening of new Reserve Deputies to please contact our office beginning July 20, 2020. Point of contact info will be provided on our Facebook and website at that time. Please contact your state senator and delegate and voice your opinions on their stated intentions." -Sheriff Scott Jenkins ■Video excerpt from Culpeper Media Network's live coverage of the BOS meeting from 7/7/20.

"Bearing Arms - Cam Edwards" interview with Sheriff Jenkins May 18, 2020

Cam Edwards with "Bearing Arms" interview with Sheriff Jenkins, from May 18, 2020

Greetings, my name is Maria Rodriguez, and I'm a Culpeper Sheriff's Detective. Sheriff Jenkins has asked that this message be made to our Hispanic community. The Sheriff’s Office has received reports that our local Hispanic neighbors feel afraid to participate in Covid 19 testing events being planned and held in Culpeper. We want to reassure the community that you do not need to be afraid to show up and be tested. Sheriff Jenkins is concerned for the health and safety of our entire community. We have a clear and simple message: ICE and our deputies will NOT be looking for ANYONE who shows up for testing, or anyone who comes with them. Anyone trying to make you afraid to seek testing or medical help is spreading false information. Many of you know me. I’ve lived in this community my entire life right alongside many of you. Testing is an important part of fighting this virus. Sheriff Jenkins wants to reassure you that no one from our office or ICE is going to be looking for anyone at these testing sites. If you see a deputy there it is only to help the event go smoothly. That is all. Please call our office at 540-727-7520 if you have any concerns about this and ask to speak to Detective Maria Rodriguez or Karen Ramirez. Thank you.

"Culpeper is home to some of Virginia's finest Deputy Sheriffs. This is another example of the professional manner in which they will swiftly stop pursuits or other criminal actions that endanger our community. They'll always have my greatest respect and full support as they risk their lives to protect our community." -Sheriff Scott Jenkins ***************************** In the early morning hours of April 22, 2020 a pursuit was initiated by a Remington Police Officer in Remington, VA. The pursuit crossed over into Culpeper County, and CCSO Deputies assisted by ending the pursuit. As the chase crossed into Culpeper County on Route 29 southbound, speeds were reported in excess of 90 mph. Culpeper Deputy Dustin Tharp successfully deployed a spike strip to flatten one of the tires. The driver of the vehicle, later identified as Kevin Keyton of Crozet, VA, continued to drive with a flat left front tire for approximately five minutes at speeds up to 50 mph. A passenger in the car with Keyton was not allowed to exit the vehicle prior to or during the pursuit. CCSO Sgt. Jonathan Kerns conducted a pursuit intervention technique, or P.I.T., to successfully end the pursuit. There was approximately 34.5 grams of heroin and 10 grams of methamphetamine located in and around the vehicle, along with a handgun and cash. Keyton reported to deputies that he had orally ingested a large bag of heroin in attempt to conceal it prior to the end of the pursuit, and that he feared he would overdose if the drug entered his system. Keyton did not subsequently overdose. While Keyton did appear intoxicated to the deputies on scene, Keyton was coherent as he was taken into custody. Keyton was charged with five felonies and two misdemeanors; VA §46.2-817 – Eluding VA §18.2-47 – Abduction VA §18.2-308.2 – Possession of a firearm by convicted felon VA §18.2-248 – Distribution Sched I/II VA §18.2-250 – Possess Sched I/II VA §18.2-266 – DUI VA §46.2-301 – Drive Revoked Keyton

Sheriff Scott Jenkins speaks with WMAL about the attack on Second Amendment rights by some of the members of the Virginia General Assembly.

The Virginia State Police is handling the investigation of the fatal crash on Stonehouse Mountain Road that occurred at 2:45 a.m. on January 19, 2020. Hugo J. Mendez-Lopez, age 28 of Culpeper, was ejected from the vehicle and his remains were transported for autopsy. “I will not allow the reputation of these two deputies to be tarnished by rumors or half truths. The fatal crash is an unfortunate result of what happens far too often when suspects choose not to comply with law enforcement." “Deputy Wesley Spicer and Deputy Nick Wayland were involved in a brief pursuit of Mendez-Lopez during which the suspect struck the right side of Deputy Spicer’s vehicle causing enough damage he was unable to continue. Deputy Wayland continued the pursuit until the point the suspect crashed. We're very thankful our deputies or other motorists were not hurt." “I have chosen to release video footage of the pursuit which speaks for itself and direct any further questions related to the crash investigation to the state police. I’d like to again thank our great partners with the Virginia State Police for their assistance.” -Sheriff Scott Jenkins

"I'll be attending the Culpeper 2A Rally at Yowell Meadow Park tomorrow and again speak about my position concerning our citizen's right to bear arms." This FOX 5 interview is one of the many Sheriff Jenkins has participated in recently to express his views as a Virginia Sheriff.

Sheriff Scott Jenkins' first public statements on 2nd Amendment rights to the Culpeper Board of Supervisors on December 3, 2019 at the morning and evening session.

"Thank you to Richmond WRVA and John Reid for the opportunity to discuss the newly proposed legislation on gun restrictions." -Sheriff Scott Jenkins

“We’re thankful Mr. Beach didn’t seriously injure or kill someone as he was captured. My thanks again to our patrol deputies for their excellent work. I commend them for their restraint and professionalism with this violent offender.” -Sheriff Scott Jenkins On Tuesday, December 10th, Culpeper Deputy Michael Mawdsley responded to assist Culpeper Town Police with a report of a wanted subject, Mr. Michael Beach. Beach was wanted in connection with a shooting and malicious wounding last week at the Culpeper Walmart. Town Police broadcasted a report of a U-Haul truck being stolen by Michael Beach from the South Main Street 7-11. The U-Haul had fled on Madison Road toward James Monroe Highway. Deputy Mawdsley observed a vehicle matching the above description being driven southbound and turning northbound onto James Monroe Highway at Reva Road. Deputy Mawdsley, assisted by Deputy Bennett and Deputy Clubb, initiated a traffic stop at approximately 6:57pm on the U-Haul at the intersection of Mountain Run Lake Road and James Monroe Highway. The U-Haul pulled into the 7-11 parking lot, and a passenger, Mr. Horton, exited the vehicle and was taken immediately into custody. Mr. Horton was found to be intoxicated and was arrested for being drunk in public. Mr. Horton was later found to be unrelated to Michael Beach and had simply been picked up as a hitchhiker by Michael Beach. After Mr. Horton exited the U-Haul, Michael Beach immediately accelerated from the 7-11 parking lot and headed northbound onto James Monroe Highway. Additional Culpeper Deputy Sheriffs were in the area, and quickly located the U-Haul driving northbound and exiting James Monroe Highway onto Madison Road. During a brief pursuit entering the Madison Road area, Michael Beach rammed multiple Sheriff vehicles with the U-Haul truck. Deputies made multiple attempts with a PIT maneuver to end the pursuit and were successful in stopping the U-Haul on Zueswyn Drive at approximately 7:10pm. Michael B

"If not for the horrific events of 9/11, I wish our nation could return to the spirit of 9/12 with the same patriotism, unity and love for our fellow man. Our first responders and veterans saw the best of America in the worst of times." -Sheriff Scott Jenkins *CCSO does not own the rights to the music in this video.

Culpeper Sheriff Lt. Ashleigh Baughn and Deputy Mike Mawdsley were challenged by Sheriff Jenkins to bring their cowboy gear and raise money for Brandy Volunteer Fire Department tonight by riding the bull. To wear the "Special Duty" uniform for Saturday night the two were required to reach at least $200 in donations. The two deputies raised $805 for our brothers and sisters of Brandy Volunteer Fire Department! "Everyone had a great time raising money for the firefighters- and we've received a ton of complements on their jeans and cowboy hat look! We'll certainly do this kind of thing more next year for any of our local Fire and Rescue whenever we can." ~Sheriff Scott Jenkins

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same." ~ Ronald Reagan, October 27th, 1964 From Sheriff Scott H. Jenkins and Culpeper County Sheriff's Office, please have a happy and safe 4th of July celebration this evening.
