To all Members:
I just sent the below email and attachment to each Police Chief, Director Ramirez, Director Junior and Sheriff Ramsay, notifying them that while we are acutely sensitive to the release of any law enforcement information that is not legally required to be released, that sensitivity must bend to protect the overall safety of all members, who may not otherwise know that someone they have had contact with has tested positive to COVID-19. We took this action only after receiving many calls from concerned members who were not aware if they had potentially been exposed after hearing about someone in their department that has tested positive.
We do not take this position lightly, but we must use a common sense approach, as we know that this pandemic will get worse before it gets better. We take this position as we mourn the loss of BSO Deputy Shannon Bennett, who lost his life yesterday to COVID-19. While we pray he will be the only loss in the local law enforcement community, and the last loss of a law enforcement officer nationwide, we know that will likely not be the case.
Safety must trump privacy in these times, and we know that you, our members, demand that.
The PBA remains available 24/7 for your needs, be they COVID-19 related or something else. Please do not hesitate to contact us as we all navigate this together.
Stay safe,
Steadman Stahl

The only thing MaryAnn does is give her brother an automatic vote. Otherwise, she’s useless just like she was on the road.
