We know starting pay is going up to $56,000 for new deputies, but why are they taking specialty pay away or reducing it for TAC and CIS? If this is true, the SSO, sorry, the SCSO, will be helping brand new employees and punishing the agencies senior and hardest working employees. Talk about a kick in the pants. New employees get a $12,000 raise and senior people get punished. I hope this is not true.
