The reputation we enjoy as Sheriffs has been built through County She~ the years by people serving this office with dedication and honesty and extends Steve Oelrich beyond the boundaries of Florida. Pres&dent of'the What I want to emphasize during my tenure as president is one of fundamen- Florida tals: What is our role and why do we serve'? Sheriffs I am sometimes asked what the best part of my job is, My answer is always Association the same, The best part of my job is that I get to work with heroes everyday. And that's the core of what we as Sheriffs should be about. We should see ourselves as having a very high calling and that calling should be taking care of our brothers and sisters on the street, in their homes and at their jobs. Even in the jail setting, we are charged with the care and custody of other people. I tell my deputies and employees that our calling is high and our responsibili- ty heavy. But I also know that their dedication is great and their commitment to serve is complete. I tell new employees and deputy sheriffs that before their first be some citizen's hero. It may not be in some dramatic year is over they will likely ItI ,, way —saving a life or confronting a dangerous person. It's likely to be in showing some kindness or courtesy during a traumatic time. It may be extra effort to help out a person or family in trouble. The Sheriffs of Florida respond to millions of emergency calls per year. On the other end of that phone are the hurts, crimes, traumas and confrontations of our respective communities. The Sheriffs, our deputies and employees are obligated and committed to respond to many of the ills and injuries of our citizenry, We don' t ask why. We do it without regard to status, race, wealth, gender, age or political persuasion, And we surely don't respond this way in order to reap rich rewards for ourselves. We all do it to because we are committed to serve. And serve we will. That' s — why I say the best part of my job is working with heroes every day. I can assure you that all Florida Sheriffs feel this way.

  • Florida's Supreme Court Justicew
    FLORIDA’S SUPREME COURT JUSTICES Charles T. Canady Chief Justice Justice Canady was appointed to the Florida Supreme Court in August 2008. He served as chief justice from 2010 – 2012 and, since July 1, 2018, has been serving as chief for a second time. Born in Lakeland, Florida, Justice Canady has the unusual distinction of having served in all three branches of government. Returning to Lakeland after receiving his BA from Haverford College and his JD from Yale Law School, he went into private practice, concentrating on real estate law. In 1984, he successfully ran for a seat in the Florida House and served for three terms. Then in 1993, he was elected to the US House, serving until 2001. Throughout his tenure in Congress, he was a member of the House Judiciary Committee, which sparked his interest in appellate work; he chaired the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution from 1995 to 2001. After leaving Washington, DC, he returned to Florida and settled in Tallahassee, where he served as the governor’s general counsel. In 2002, he was appointed to the Second District Court of Appeal, where he remained until his appointment to the Florida Supreme Court. Justice Canady and his wife, Jennifer Houghton, have two children. Ricky Polston Justice Justice Polston was appointed to the Florida Supreme Court in October 2008, and he served as chief justice from 2012 – 2014. A native of Graceville, Florida, Justice Polston grew up on a farm that raised peanuts, watermelon, and cattle. He began his professional life as a certified public accountant: he received his BS in accounting from Florida State University in 1977 and developed a thriving career (in fact, he is still a licensed CPA).

Chairing the transition team are Congressman Matt Gaetz, former state House Speaker Richard Corcoran, former U.S. Senator George LeMieux and former Lieutenant Governor Toni Jennings. Gaetz is a former state legislator from Fort Walton Beach. LeMieux served as chief of staff to former Governor Charlie Crist, who appointed LeMieux to the U.S. Senate.
