April 13, 2015 Dunn County Board of Supervisors Dunn County Government Center 800 Wilson Avenue Menomonie, WI 54751 The Dunn County Sheriff’s Office Annual Report for the Year 2014 Dear Supervisors, We are well into 2015 and it’s time to provide you with my 2014 Annual Report. Enclosed you will find the normal statistics and numbers for the year and hopefully it will help you learn more about the sheriff’s office operation. During 2014 we had some new challenges. We ended up having four officer involved shootings happen in Dunn County. All four were different in many ways, but they all caused the law enforcement officers make a major decision on that day, at that moment in time. Thankfully no officers were killed or injured during those four events, but it will leave a lasting impression on each of the officers involved and the agencies they work for. These events should also leave an impression on everyone that lives in Dunn County or surrounding counties. It can happen in Dunn County as it has happened in every surrounding county during the past 5 or so years. We hire quality people, train them and expect them to go fourth and protect us so that we can live a comfortable life. The sad thing is that the violence we heard about in Chicago, Milwaukee, the Twin Cities and other more urban areas, is trickling down to our area. Most of these violent confrontations are drug related and I can only hope something positive will happen to slow down the change in our population. I feel it is important that each of you put yourself in the situation of a possible victim of a crime or an assault. I have heard for many years from victims of burglaries and criminal damage to property how the victims feel like they have been violated. When you or family member has been assaulted, you want someone arrested and put in jail for a long time. You want the officers to arrive very quickly, investigate the incident properly and to arrest the suspect responsible for changing your life. I want to assure you that the men and women of the Dunn County Sheriff’s Office work hard every day to do quality work, to keep the public safe and represent Dunn County in a professional manner. They do so while being compassionate when dealing with victims and people who are vulnerable. They also know when being firm is necessary and appropriate. During 2014 the number of Traffic Stops went down, the number of accidents and injury accidents went up. The number of mental cases, the number of juvenile substance abuse cases and the number of jail incidents went up. My deputies and jail staff are putting forth a great deal of effort to keep up with the work load, but while they are dealing with the

Page 3: 2014 ANNUAL REPORT - Dunn County, WID750D8EC-F485... · 2015-04-14 · As I said in my cover letter, each year the number of some types of calls increase and others decrease. Some

incidents that have increased in number, they are not able to make as many traffic stop and do as much patrolling our county. That reduction in proactive law enforcement I believe will lead to more traffic injuries and deaths, and more property crime to support drug and alcohol addiction. Finally, it has been talked about in the past and I know everyone has an opinion of how many deputies we should have. It however is important to keep in mind the number of violent incidents that has occurred in Dunn County and the surrounding area in the past couple of years. County residents want to keep taxes down, but they also want to be safe and secure in their home, work place and while they travel about Dunn County. Thank you for your time. Respectfully submitted,

For your information: Our Annual Report is to inform the County Board of Supervisors and the public about what we have done in the past year. In this report we include statistical information, but I want to include a bit more this year about things we do. As I said in my cover letter, each year the number of some types of calls increase and others decrease. Some times one is a reflection of the other.

• During 2014 you will see a reduction in traffic stops. You will however see and increase in mental cases. A traffic stop for a single violation takes about 15 minutes. An OMVWI arrest will take 2 – 4 hours depending on the distance from the office, how cooperative the violator is, how long the emergency room wait is for a blood draw and if there was a traffic crash involved. A mental case will at least take 60 minutes to handle if there is little to no issue. If the deputy takes the individual to the hospital for medical clearance and the crisis team is involved, it can take two hours since the hospitals are in Eau Claire. If they don’t have a bed available, we have to transport them further. If we take them to Mendota or Winnebago mental hospital, it will be about 8-10 hours of transportation time after the decision is made.

During the past twenty plus years, law enforcement has changed dramatically. In 1975 we wore a handgun on one side and a handcuff case on the other. We drove squads that would travel 140 – 150 mph and had two frequency radios. We could talk to dispatch or the neighboring county when you were near that county line. We carried a night stick in the squad, a small first aid kit in the trunk or back seat and a shotgun in the trunk. We also received no formal training and only a little job shadow type training. Today’s law enforcement officers are required to have an associate degree or 60 college credits, they end up going through a police academy that used to be 120 hours and now is 720 hours. This academy certifies them as a police officer for the State of Wisconsin. That is over four months of training over and above their associate degree. When we hire a new deputy, we put them through approximately 14 weeks of in-house training with a FTO (Field Training Officer). During that time our new deputy studies our department and county policies, our county ordinances, our county roads, towns and villages, and much more. My training staff has put together a fantastic training program that prepares a new deputy to handle any situation. Much of the information they can not memorize so they are taught how to locate what ever information they need. Our jails staff has a very similar training program. Presently they are not required to have an associate degree; we prefer to see some formal training after high school. Either prior to hire or soon after they are hired, they attend a 160 hour jail academy that certifies them as a jail officer in the state of Wisconsin. When they begin working in our jail, they too are put through a CTO (Corrections Training Officer) program that is approximately 10–12 weeks long. My jail training officers have established a quality training program that prepares them to handle almost any situation that may happen with in the jail. About 15 – 20 years ago there was a “new” law enforcement term talked about that was not really new at all. That term was “community policing”. In big cities they may have went away from the grassroots of community policing and had to knowingly return to talking to the community, and getting involved in the community. For those of us who

Page 9: 2014 ANNUAL REPORT - Dunn County, WID750D8EC-F485... · 2015-04-14 · As I said in my cover letter, each year the number of some types of calls increase and others decrease. Some

have been around for almost twice that long in Dunn County, we practiced that concept our entire career. Most of my first 10 years there was only one deputy on duty in Dunn County. In Dunn County and the surrounding county you rarely heard of officers being assaulted. When we went to a fight or domestic we had to know how to talk to people, gain there cooperation and get the job done in one way or another. These days, community policing is more important than ever. We need to know the people that will most likely do us no harm and those who we can’t trust. We need to know the vehicles that are in our villages and if there is an unfamiliar vehicle in a village that may be a burglar or a thief. We also need to know who we can talk to and get reliable information form that may help solve a crime. The same things we did over 20 years ago. During 2014 and the past couple of years we have worked to build community partnerships or join groups that also want to keep our communities safe. We’ve had deputies that lead the way to start some of the following initiatives here in Dunn County.

• Crime Stoppers – a community organization that is has a board of directors that works with an officer from the Sheriff’s Office. Sergeant Marshall Multahuf is our liaison officer who gathers information from all law enforcement agencies in Dunn County and puts them on our Crimes Stoppers website. When a tip comes in, he sees it is sent to the correct officer for follow up. He regularly forwards information to our deputies to be investigated.

• Project Life Saver – is a program where by families with members that are ‘at risk” can work with law enforcement to prepare for a situation where the “at risk” person either walks away from where they are or gets lost in an area. The at risk person wear an arm band that looks similar to a wrist watch. If they are unable to be located. A call can be made to the sheriff’s office and deputies will be dispatched that have been trained to operate hand held locater antennas / receivers to search for the missing person. Deputy Chad Pollack is our primary contact for this service. He is assisted other trained officers.

• Drug Take Back – for about the past five years now we have been involved with the community by offering them a place to drop off unused drugs so that they can be properly disposed of. We allow them to be dropped off at the front window free of charge so that we can forward them to an authorized disposal site. Each year we have a dedicated day for a drug take back that is not during normal business hours. The intent is to now have people flush them down the toilet or wash them down the sink, or taken by someone who they were not prescribed too.

• CJCC – the Dunn County Criminal Justice Collaboration Council. During the past five or more years, about three of my jail staff and I have been involved with the CJCC. Two or three of my jail staff are involved each week in Treatment Court, f/k/n as Diversion Court. It is intended to break the cycle of individuals being involved in the criminal justice system here in Dunn County. With a normal traffic stop, an officer will take about 15 minutes of their time to deal with a subject. For a criminal case, the officer will spend hours dealing with a subject and later with court appearance, the support staff will deal with the reports, photos, statements and related material. Then the District Attorney’s Office, the Clerk of Courts Office, the Judges and possibly human services get involved. When a subject re-offends the lengthy process starts all over again.

I’m not sure how long it will take to see the benefits, but I know we need to do something. In 1975 when I became a reserve deputy sheriff here in Dunn County, we held about 5 -8 prisoners most of the time. At holiday time it might get down to 1 or 2 inmates, at peak times our jail population might grow to about 10. Each year the average population grew a little. By 1995 we had a daily population of 40–42 inmates and had to house them in other county jails. It was then decided that we should build a new jail, which lead to the building of a new Judicial Center and jail. During 2014 we had a daily jail population of approximately 89 of our own inmates. That trend is especially alarming since it has grown at a rate much faster than even our population increase.

• Major Case Preparation – During the past several years Sgt. McRoberts and our training offices have improved our basic training for day to day case loads and incidents. We want our deputies and corrections officers to do quality work each day. I believe training is a key to a quality work product, keeping liability to the county to a minimum and to be prepared for almost anything that can happen. In 2014 we began working with other agencies to establish a CART Team. If a child is taken or ends up missing, the CART Team would be called in and they would follow pre determined protocols that we believe will increase our chances of the child being located quickly and hopefully safely. This training and planning will help with other major case investigations that may occur in Dunn County or a surrounding county.

• Joint Training – for several years the Dunn County Sheriff’s Office has provided training to the village police departments within Dunn County. During the past 15 years we have worked with the school districts and police departments to have standardized responses to some types of calls. During 2014 we began regular training with the village officers, Menomonie Police Department officers and Wisconsin State Patrol at the firearms range, at schools and business’s to practice responses to serious incidents.

During 2015, we plan to continue building partnerships with community groups and other law enforcement agencies. The Dunn County Sheriff’s Office staffing is such that we can not do everything alone and we must work cooperatively to keep everyone safe from harm.

HSED

The HSED Program is funded by the School District of Menomonie and provides services for inmates of the Dunn County Jail who are ages 17 years old to 20 years old. Many of the inmates attending HSED are currently enrolled in alternative schools within their district. In 2014 we have converted to computerized testing therefore with the change, there has been a reduction of tests while we are acclimating ourselves to the new system. Dunn County Jail was one of the first facilities in Wisconsin to complete computerized testing. We have signed a contract for service with Ron Krueger (GED Manager) to provide the testing services.

Dunn County Sheriff’s Office

K-9 Report

Deputy Jason Stalker & K-9 Jax

Jason Stalker grew up in the Boyceville area of Dunn County. He joined the Dunn County Sheriff’s Office in 2009 as a reserve deputy sheriff. On January 1, 2011 Jason was hired as a full time deputy sheriff and has been a valuable member of our team. In early 2013 we found that we were in need of a patrol K-9 because of the growing drug problems in west central Wisconsin and the Midwest region. After working with the county administration to set up a roll-over account for donations made to fund K-9 expenses, we selected Deputy Stalker to be the K-9 handler. Several nearby agencies recommended St. Paul Police Department’s K-9 Training Center as a place to consider when obtaining a new K-9. We visited there center and were pleased their program would lead to a successful program and decide to obtain a patrol dog from them. During the 2013 Dunn County Fair, we asked those who visited our fair booth to submit suggestions of a name for our new K-9. The name selected was Jax. Deputy Stalker and Jax attended their initial training was from May – June 2014. They then worked patrol until November when they returned to the school for a month of narcotics training. Jason and Jax are now certified in patrol and narcotics. Jason and Jax are training regularly to practice their skills. Jax will be used to search for people who may be lost or leave the location of and incident. He will also be used to search for drugs in vehicles, buildings and schools as requested.
