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.

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

Towson University Athletics establishes the Robert Marchanti Scholarship.
Towson University Athletics has established the Robert Marchanti Scholarship Endowment. This was created in memory of Towson alum Major Robert Marchanti.
January 13th, 2017 - Command Sgt. Maj. Thomas B. Beyard, the Senior Enlisted Leader of the Maryland National Guard just got in touch about a military appreciation game at Towson State University in honor of a fallen comrade in arms. MAJ Marchanti
My good friend Tom writes, “Hello! My newest project. Very interesting story about MAJ Marchanti, who was a Maryland Guardsman, plus a Towson graduate and wrestler.
“He was deployed from 2011 until his death on Feb 25, 2012. He was mentoring Afghan police officials, and one of them whom he had been mentoring turned on him and murdered him inside the Afghan police building.
"We are now working with Towson Athletics, Peggy Marchanti, his widow and other partners to make this scholarship a reality. It will be kicked off tomorrow at SECU Arena on the campus of Towson University at their men's military appreciation basketball game verses Northeastern. Game is Sat, Jan 14 at 2:00 pm. Have great day. Tom"

law enforcement officers nationwide will promote National Law Enforcement
Appreciation Day (L.E.A.D.).
National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day (L.E.A.D.)
Retrieved Jan.9, 2017 – Jan. 18, 2017
On January 9th, 2018,
partnering organizations in support of law enforcement officers nationwide will
promote National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day (L.E.A.D.). In light of
recent negativity directed toward law enforcement nationally, there is a need
to show law enforcement officers that our citizens recognize the difficult and
sometimes impossible career they have chosen, in public service to us all.
On January 9th of each year, we
will call our nation’s citizens to action in support of law enforcement.
Those citizens who appreciate law enforcement and are discouraged about the
negative attention being given to law enforcement are encouraged to take time
on January 9, to show their support. Our
citizens can show their support in a number of ways:
• Change your profile
picture on social media to the .jpg image provided at
www.facebook.com/nationalcops.
• Wear blue clothing
in support of law enforcement.
• Send a card of
support to your local police department or state agency.
• Share a story about
a positive law enforcement experience on social media.
• Ask children in your
community to write letters in support of law enforcement.
• Participate in
Project Blue Light - Proudly display your blue light in support of law
enforcement.
• Organize an event or
a rally in support of your law enforcement officers.
• Advertise your
support through local media outlets/billboards.
• Post the public
service announcement supplied by C.O.P.S. to your organization’s webpage or
social media pages.
Most importantly, if
you see a police officer, thank a police officer.

D.C.’s ‘beyond broken’ criminal-justice system is an outrage
The Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency on
Indiana Avenue in the District. (J. Lawler Duggan/For The Washington Post)
By Editorial Board December
30, 2016
“BEYOND BROKEN.” That characterization by then-D.C. Police
Chief Cathy L. Lanier of the District’s criminal-justice system was
dismissed by some as hyperbole. But the truth of her words has been borne out
in excruciating detail over the past year by Post reporters who have chronicled
how repeat violent offenders are released back into the community, only to
commit new crimes. “Where the hell is the outrage?” asked the departing chief —
a question that, more than ever in light of The Post’s revelations, demands to
be addressed by the city and federal officials responsible for the system.
The failings of the mix of local and federal agencies that
comprise the criminal-justice system in the District have been the subject of
examination in The Post’s ongoing “Second-Chance City” series. Lax enforcement by
key federal agencies and questionable judgments from the D.C. Superior Court
were spotlighted in a case in which the release of an offender resulted in a woman being raped.
