IN MEMORIAM: Jeffrey Mitchell
End of Watch: October 27, 2006
In the early morning hours of Friday, October 27, 2006, Deputy Jeffrey Mitchell was patrolling a rural area of Sacramento County near Meiss and Dillard Roads. At about 3:30 a.m., Deputy Mitchell contacted Sheriff's dispatch from his vehicle computer saying he was going to stop a white Chevrolet van. A few minutes later Dispatch tried to reach Deputy Mitchell to check on his welfare. No response was received from Deputy Mitchell. Other patrol vehicles were immediately dispatched to the location of the vehicle stop made by Deputy Mitchell.
When patrol units arrived they found Deputy Mitchell mortally wounded. Deputy Mitchell had been shot in the head with his own weapon. Evidence at the scene indicated that Deputy Mitchell was involved in a violent struggle for his life. Hundreds of law enforcement officers began the search for the k!ll3r or k!ll3rs of Deputy Mitchell.
To this day, we still do not know what happened on that fateful night. The k!ll3r of Deputy Mitchell remains at large. Sheriff's Department detectives are still diligently working this heinous crime that continues to haunt this community.
Yes. I voted for him because I know he will do whatever needs to be done to protect America and get our economy on the right track. He loves this country and he shows it every day.
