Ladies and Gentlemen…….. (drumroll please!)
Introducing the
newest member of the Santa Cruz Police Department…Officer Scott Freeman.
Today, Scott was sworn-in as a Police Officer, by Chief
Kevin Vogel.
Scott brings some solid policing skills and knowledge to
our department. Scott comes to us with
just over 12 years of experience at the Scotts Valley Police Department where
he worked as a training officer, detective, and team member for their SWAT.
Scott is an Army veteran where he was a sergeant and served
as a Special Agent for United States Counter-Intelligence.
Scott and his family are grounded in the local
community. His wife Ann is an amazing English
teacher at Scotts Valley High School…my kids & their friends say she’s “the
bomb!” (that comment has nothing to do with finals being graded) Thank God she doesn’t grade my blog posts!!
With Scott's hiring, the staffing situation continues to improve here at SCPD. Over the past year we have hired 16 Police Officers. We are currently up to full staffing +1 overfill (for anticipated retirements). Those numbers include our 4 currently in the academy, and 8 that are currently out on long-term injuries.
Please join us in welcoming Officer Scott Freeman to our SCPD
family.
