Chief Deputy Patrick J. O’Brien was involved in disciplinary actions against Deputy Sergeant Ken Jones in 2005. O’Brien issued a formal letter of reprimand to Jones for alleged insubordination when Jones bypassed the chain of command. This action was part of a series of events that Jones claimed were retaliatory, leading to his resignation and subsequent lawsuit against the department. The case raised questions about the fairness and motivations behind internal disciplinary processes.
