One year ago today, Deputy Andrew Nunez made the ultimate sacrifice while serving and protecting our community.

Not a day goes by that we don’t remember his courage, dedication, and the sacrifice he made.

My heart and prayers remain with Andrew’s family, friends, and fellow deputies as we continue to honor his life, his service, and the legacy he leaves behind. When you’re later, our promise remains the same. We will never forget.

On October 10 and 11, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department’s Work Release Program (WRP) conducted a community cleanup along Summit Valley Road in Hesperia.

Participants removed two 40-yard dumpsters worth of trash and 30 abandoned vehicle tires, helping improve the community while fulfilling court-ordered service.

The Work Release Program provides an alternative to incarceration, allowing participants to give back to their communities while maintaining employment, continuing their education, and supporting their families.

This successful cleanup highlights the department’s continued commitment to community partnerships and service.
