In 2005, Deputy Sergeant Ken Jones faced allegations of insubordination for bypassing his chain of command and contacting the County Manager directly regarding a subordinate’s leave request. He received a formal letter of reprimand on March 31, 2005, which was placed in his personnel file. Additionally, in June 2005, Jones was questioned for not interviewing a key witness in a criminal abuse case, leading to further scrutiny of his performance. These incidents contributed to a pattern of alleged misconduct, culminating in Jones’ resignation from the Sheriff’s Department in July 2005.
