Well thank you! We registered Deputy Ashley Henson on here today. He will be the new PIO for Paulding. He will do a good job keeping you all informed. Here is a link that was started that gives a little more detail about me leaving.

Our deputies responded to a domestic violence call yesterday afternoon in Eagle Point. When they arrived the male subject fled on foot. We saturated the area rather quickly with other deputies. The suspect was located and arrested. He was charged with Family Violence Battery, Theft by Taking, and Obstruction of Law Enforcement.

Thanks again everyone! I will be on patrol learning my way around the city. GPS will be a great friend over the next few weeks

Thank you!

Someone told me I was being talked about on here. First of all, thank you all for your comments and kind words. I have enjoyed my time here interacting with Pcommers. I hope that what we have done together has helped to better the relationship between the Paulding County Sheriff's Office and our citizens. Without the support of our citizens, we can not effectively prevent crime and protect life and property. I have called Paulding County home for 32 years and will continue to live here. Deputy Ashley Henson has been my back up PIO for the past couple of years. He is looking forw

And thank you!

What Pubby is saying is that he used more common sense than the person on the news desk that night.

Yes!!! Thanks, Pubby Although, awhile back the news desk for 11 Alive called me at 2 a.m. saying that a caller told them that we had responded to a call of a dead body that was found in a ditch in Paulding County. The "dead body" was actually a drunk passed out. My wife was not too happy getting woke up to that The Governors Town Club entrance is in Cobb County, but part of the subdivision comes back in to Paulding so a few of the streets belong to us. It is not uncommon for Cobb and Paulding to respond to a call like a possible house fire due to the boundary issue. It is po

I see y'all are going to keep me busy today Dallas PD responded to a report of a theft in progress from a vehicle at Merchant's Court Apartments. The suspects led on foot. Our deputies respond to help establish a perimeter around the area that the suspects were seen running toward. Dallas PD K-9 was used and located both suspects. Both suspects were taken in to custody.

There was NO shooting last night in Bentwater. There were NO shootings last night anywhere in Paulding County so I am not sure how or why this rumor got started anyway.

Got it! I am letting our traffic unit know so they can plan on traffic enforcement in those areas. For everyone else that travels that same route... YOU'VE BEEN WARNED! Also, let me point you in a much better direction for notifying us of these traffic complaints. Someone sent me an email that this was here or I may not have seen it for several days. If you go to our website, www.paulding.gov/sheriff, and look for the link titled "Citizen's Traffic Enforcement Request" you can submit your complaint there electronically. That complaint will be sent automatically to the supervis

There was a brief chase related to this arrest. The suspect was mobile as we were tracking his movements by GPS. We used several officers to saturate the area in order to hopefully spot the suspect's vehicle. Once his vehicle was seen, he failed to stop for the deputies. Deputies had to bring the pursuit to an end using the Pursuit Intervention Technique (PIT). There will be additional charges related to the pursuit as well as charges related to the ongoing investigation. For Immediate Release Registered Sexual Predator Arrested Paulding County (Pa

I am not going to get in to the debate on rather or not a citation should have been issued. I also admit that I did not read every post in this thread so this point may have already been made. I did want to address the comments that I did read about a "police escort". Most all police agencies, including Paulding County Sheriff's Office, have strict written policies against providing an emergency police escort for a private vehicle. Why is that? There are several reasons for this policy. For example, if the police officer is speeding with lights and siren and the citizen is following

One of our deputies made contact with the vehicle and driver this morning on Cleburne Pkwy at Hwy 278 after it crossed over from Poplar Springs Rd. We will continue to patrol the area to monitor aggressive or reckless driving behavior of this driver and any other drivers that we may encounter.

Dallas Police is investigating an armed robbery that occurred at Wendy's Sunday morning around 9:30 a.m. I do not have any details to release since this is a Dallas PD investigation. Later that same morning, we received a report of a suspicious vehicle and person at the Waffle House located at the corner of Hwy. 61 and 278. One of the passengers was said to be armed with an “assault rifle”. I am sure you can see the urgency of this report due to the armed robber that had occurred a little over an hour earlier. We located the vehicle leaving the area and initiated a traffic stop

Merchants Dr is the jurisdiction of Dallas Police. However, some of the adjoining properties are the Sheriff’s jurisdiction. Our deputies try to ride through the city of Dallas as frequently as possible to patrol those properties that are the Sheriff’s jurisdiction. With that said, there is nothing illegal about walking down the side of the roadway carrying a backpack. Our constitution protects us from unreasonable searches and seizures. As police officers we are sworn to protect that constitution, not violate it. We can not just stop vehicles or people without some sort of probable
