+++++++++++++++Excellent article by Carroll County Times reporter Heather Mongilio: “Sheriff’s Office loses three deputies”
Excellent article by Carroll County Times reporter Heather
Mongilio: “Sheriff’s Office loses three deputies,” January 13, 2017 http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/news/crime/ph-cc-sheriffs-office-turnover-20170113-story.html
In my capacity as a volunteer fire and police chaplain, I have had conversation after conversation, in confidence with law enforcement officers, that the compensation and benefits are not commensurate with the ever-increasing difficulty of the job and the current 'war on police' (not my words,) environment in which police officers work.
In spite of the fact that Carroll County Sheriff Jim DeWees
is an exceptional sheriff, there is a largely held perception that local
elected officials throughout the nation - even in Carroll County, do not have
our back.
Moreover, when the going gets tough, local elected officials will throw the police under a bus. “Hands Up, Don't” Shoot” was a lie.
Moreover, when the going gets tough, local elected officials will throw the police under a bus. “Hands Up, Don't” Shoot” was a lie.
Look no farther that the recent actions by the U.S. Attorney
General Loretta Lynch and the Justice Department. In 2016, there were 4,368 shooting
victims in Chicago. Chicago’s murder rate is up 72% with 700-plus homicides. The
recent response by the Justice Department is no different that that of the last
eight years all across the nation - scapegoat, blame and criminalize the police. This is
bizarre. Then after hammering the police, AG Lynch ponders, “officer morale is
low.” Duh, ya think? #BlueLivesMatter
#ChicagoPD
These days, police officers are highly skilled,
well-educated, and highly motivated individuals. Yet they go to work every day,
knowing that they could die that day and leave their family behind – or be vexatiously
prosecuted for conducting their job consistent with their training and keeping
the community’s best interests at heart.
In today’s market, police officers are highly employable. In
today’s environment, from a LEO’s point of view, why stay with law enforcement
when you can take your skills, training, and education somewhere else, get paid
better, spend more time with the family, including nights, vacations and
holidays – and have better benefits. Just saying.
++++++++++++++++++++++
“While he left the
department, Buenger praised DeWees and the department, saying DeWees does his
best to provide the deputies with the best equipment and training. The money
could be better, he said, but it was not the deciding factor in his decision.
‘I can't say anything negative about the Sheriff's Office in Carroll County,’
Buenger said.” Read more: http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/news/crime/ph-cc-sheriffs-office-turnover-20170113-story.html
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
At the county level, I believe that the Board of
Commissioners have our backs. However, the matter of juggling competing needs
with constrained and finite resources gets complex quickly. Carroll County has
huge infrastructure needs that need tax dollars. The demands on the fire and
EMS services are reaching levels that require much more funding or the
volunteer system will collapse. Unfunded mandates from the state and federal
government are constantly adding expenses. Not to be overlooked is the cost of health
care because of recent changes at the federal level – ACA.
Sheriff DeWees is a friend. I have worked with him for years. His
head is on straight and he is part of the solution.
What will make a difference will be the voting public making
our concerns known to elected officials. When I was in office, I proposed a
5-cent tax increase for the purpose of supporting law enforcement and the fire
service. I felt strongly that the public supported the idea. This was when I
brought LEOPS forward despite active opposition on the part of other elected
officials. My elected official colleagues, who represented a narrower nuanced
band of the constituency, did not support the idea of increasing revenues for
first responders. I will just leave this right there.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Losing deputies is
nothing new for Sheriff Jim DeWees. But in the past two weeks, three deputies
have left the Carroll County Sheriff's Office with two leaving the profession.
"I've lost some
good deputies over the last years," DeWees said.
In 2016, DeWees said
he lost about 10 to 12 deputies, which he called "significant" for a
department the size of the Sheriff's Office.
Of the three deputies
who left in the past two weeks, one left to be a criminal investigator within a
Pennsylvania state's attorney's office, one left to work in his father's
company and one left for Wyoming, DeWees said.
When a deputy decides
to leave the department, DeWees sits down with each of the deputies to talk about
the decision to leave. For many it's the salary, DeWees said.

Distinguished local Carroll Co Attorney “Woody” Swam, 80, of
Hampstead https://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2017/01/distinguished-local-carroll-co-attorney.html
Labels: People
obituaries
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Phyllis J. Zumbrun, Mark,
and Robyn Schaefer; Jason, Laura, and Mattie Tyler of Westminster, and the friends,
family, and colleagues of Woody Swam. Woody will be greatly missed. We have all
benefited greatly from his service to our country and our community. You have
our deepest sympathy. Caroline Babylon and Kevin Dayhoff:
Elwood “Woody” Edward Swam, 80, of Hampstead, died
peacefully on Saturday, January 7, 2017. Born September 21, 1936, he was the
son of the late John Henry and Iova Walker Swam. Woody is survived by his wife
and best friend of forty-five (45) years, Phyllis J. Zumbrun.
Woody lived his entire life in Carroll County, Maryland.
Born and raised in Manchester, he graduated from Manchester High School as
president of the Class of 1954. After graduation, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy
for flight training. Following his honorable discharge from the Navy, he
pursued several business positions while attending law school at the University
of Baltimore. Upon graduation, he opened his law practice in Hampstead, which
he pursued for forty-six (46) successful years.
Woody dedicated his life to his law practice and the clients
he served. In his spare time, he enjoyed travel, golf, fine dining, and
entertaining. “Pushing the envelope,” he always welcomed challenges and would
rise to the occasion with his cleverness and wit. Being quite a rascal himself
in his youth, he enjoyed interacting with young people and served as a mentor
to many. Investments have always been an intense interest of his, but his
investment in others brought him the greatest dividends.
Woody was a member of the Maryland State Bar Association,
the Carroll County Bar Association, and the Jaycees. He served on the Maryland
Attorney Grievance Commission and the Trial Courts Judicial Nominating
Commission – Eighth District. As a behind the scenes advocate, he endorsed and supported
the missions and roles of NESAP, Carroll Hospice. Lineboro-Manchester Lions
Club, local fire departments, and educational opportunities.
Surviving in addition to his wife are brother, John Swam of
Manchester; brother Robert (Bob) Swam and wife, Carol, of Worton; sister,
Patricia (Pat) Martak of Abington; numerous nieces and nephews, great-nieces
and great-nephews, and great-great nieces and great-great nephews. He was
predeceased by sister, Annabell M. Baer.
In addition, he is survived by his extended family, Mark and
Robyn Schaefer of Hampstead; Jason, Laura, and Mattie Tyler of Westminster; and
Emily Schaefer and Thomas Nelson, of Arlington, VA.
The family will receive friends on Wednesday, January 11,
2017 at the ECKHARDT FUNERAL CHAPEL, P.A. 3296 Charmil Drive, Manchester, MD
21102 from 3-5 and 7-9p.m. and a memorial service will be held on Thursday,
January 12, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. Interment is private.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Mc
Daniel College, c/o Lawrence R. Junkin, Two College Hill, Westminster, MD
21157. Online condolences may be offered at www.eckhardtfuneralchapel.com
