Sheriff Ian Parkinson’s Message
We have entered another new
year with a lot planned for the
upcoming year. We have had
many new hires and promotions. Chief John Giese retired after a long and successful career with the Sheriff’s
Office. John was a valuable
asset to my executive staff
and I will miss him. Commander Ron Hastie was selected and promoted to replace John. Chief Hastie was
most recently the Detective
Commander. Chief Hastie’s
father, John, was also a Chief Deputy
with the Sheriff’s Office. We are
looking forward to Ron’s contributions as a Chief Deputy. We promoted Sergeant Stuart MacDonald to the
rank of Commander and Senior Deputy Doug Scotto was promoted to
Sergeant. Promotions are exciting
changes but also signify the loss of
institutional knowledge and a new era
for the Sheriff’s Office.
On February 25th we held an awards
ceremony. Many people were in attendance, including employees, families and Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation Board members. This ceremony
culminated with presenting 33 awards
to department members, ranging
from Commendations to Distinguished Service Award to Medal of
Valor, all for actions taken in service
to the communities we serve. The
Sheriff’s Awards Committee is responsible for reviewing the activities and
actions of employees who are nominated through the chain of command for
recognition and awards. The Committee votes on whether an award or
recognition is appropriate and forwards their recommendations to the
Sheriff. The Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation also presented 47 Service
Award Pins to Sheriff’s Office employees, the longest being for 35 years
of continuous service. Additionally,
volunteers were recognized for their
years of service, the longest being 40
years.

The fourth annual Preparedness Expo emerged a huge
success once again. Held on March 21 at the San Luis
Obispo Veteran’s Hall, the expo featured local agencies
and businesses that specialize services or products related
to public safety. From fire trucks to Tasers to earthquake
simulations to hopped up police vehicles, families were
educated in how to care for themselves in an emergency as
well as what to expect from their public service people.
A room was set aside for speakers such as Sheriff
Ian Parkinson who spoke on “Communication Before,
During and After a Natural Disaster.” There were also
talks on how to prepare a disaster kit before the fact, nuclear power plant information, and basic emergency preparation.
Pictured: Randy Arseneau, Mary Scarbrough, Sam Sarbrough
Children were fascinated to see the earthquake simulator in action as well as talk to their heroes in uniform.
The Dumont family stopped by the SAFSLO table to announce one of the children had won a bicycle at last year’s
Sheriff’s Family Day. They graciously offered to volunteer
at this year’s event.
The San Luis Obispo Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation
staffed a table to inform the public on our organization as
well as offer Sheriff’s Family Day t-shirts and mugs when
donations were offered. Thank you to Sylvia Dodd, Mary
and Sam Scarbrough, Randy Arseneau, and Gigi and
Bill Senna for their hard work setting up, staffing, and
taking down the SAFSLO exhibit.

Law Enforcement Torch Run Final Leg for Special Olympics
By Tony Cipolla
open the 2015 Special Olympics World Games at the
LA Coliseum. More than 7,000 athletes from 177
countries will take part in the World Games in July. In
honor of that event, Sheriff Parkinson has ordered
"2015 Special Olympics World Games" bumper
stickers to be affixed to all Sheriff's Patrol Units. "This
is our way of showing support for a very worthwhile
cause. A cause, I and other law enforcement officers
deeply believe in and which I have personally been
involved with for a number of years, " said Sheriff
Parkinson. The bumper stickers were funded by a
donation from the Sheriff's Advisory Foundation. The
bumper stickers will remain on the vehicles until
the completion of the World Games in August.

K-9 Memorial Area Needs Improvement
As many of you may or may not know, our Sheriff’s Office is unique in the fact that we have the only designated
K-9 memorial in the nation. Our K-9 memorial site has even hit main stream news. An article written by an Associated Press member, Sue Manning mentioned our memorial site in her article; “Police Dogs Laid to Rest in
Their Own Cemetery in California” (LOS ANGELES — Mar 11, 2015). But our memorial site is not complete.
“We still need a flag pole and the steps need improvements”, mentioned Senior Deputy Barger.

No Spring Vacation For Our
SLO Sheriff ’s Office K-9 Team
By Renee Samaniego Lundy
While Major League Baseball was getting ready for
spring training, our Sheriff’s Office K-9 team and
Special Enforcement Detail (SED) went to their own
training camp this spring. A 10 member team (2 K-9
units and 8 SED members) were sent to the Los Angeles County Special Enforcement Bureau Tactical
Canine Course. The course was in scorching Los Angeles heat for 3 ten-hour days!
The course was designed to expose the canine team to
present-day training and deployment concepts related
to integrating a canine team into high risk operations
conducted by SWAT/SED tactical teams. The course
enables participants to successfully and safely integrate
a canine handler and properly trained canine with
members of a tactical team. The course taught our
Sheriff’s team proper communication skills needed
between the K-9 team, tactical team members and
command staff.
This was no vacation for our Sheriff’s team. Some of
the classes taught during the 3 day crunch were; pre
deployment planning strategies involving tactical arrest teams, containment teams, entry team assignments, barricaded vehicle operations, hostage rescue
operations, fast rope deployment (from a helicopter)
and high risk area search missions, to name a few. The
instruction provided our team with the skills and philosophies necessary to successfully complete a demanding “culmination exercise” at the conclusion of
the course.
Our team did very well on the “culmination exercise”.
It replicated actual deployment conditions and measured the abilities and shortcomings of our Sheriff’s K9 teams. Handler Josh Peet and K-9 DJ along with
Handler Bryan Love and K-9 Hondo performed exceptionally well at the training exercise. The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Office SED Team members commented on how well the K-9 and SED Units were
equipped and that they performed very well together
especially with such a new K-9 program having been
implemented.
Our K-9 teams purchased equipment that just made it
in on time for the tactical course training. The team
was very excited about the new-updated gear. The
last purchase of equipment and training completely
expended the K-9 account. When speaking with Senior Deputy Barger about future goals, purchases and/
or needs for our K-9 team, he mentioned the need for
new bite suits ($1,500 apiece) and improvements to
the K-9 memorial.

Please Welcome our Newest K-9 Team
With the retirement of K-9 “Nico” and his handler
Deputy Faeth last year, the newest team to pound the
streets is canine “DJ” and handler Deputy Josh
Peet. This team hit the ground running (or should I
say sniffing?). Their first day on the job they had a
successful track and apprehension. A few days later,
at a self-initiated stop, DJ found some meth in a car
his partner Deputy Peet pulled over. Can you imagine what we could do with 20 dogs?
However, there are plans at this time to add a new
dog. “I would love to have an EOD dog (Explosion
Ordinance Detection/AKA bomb sniffing dog). Our
department does not have a bomb sniffing dog, it
would be great to have our own”, said Senior Deputy
Barger. Needless to say our K-9 team is impressive,
and with the continued help of our community, it can
only improve.

Marsha Mann Speaks at Footprinters Meeting
Newborns are generally issued Social Security
numbers, and perpetrators sometimes steal those numbers and create a new identity with them to illegally gain
loans, credit cards and other ways for ill-gotten gains.
The elderly are often victims of scams. One
common one is the phone call from a so-called grandchild, purporting to be in trouble and needing money
quickly. Often, those who fall for the scam are too humiliated to report. Another recent scam, especially during tax time is a call from someone claiming to be with
the IRS, demanding payment for overdue taxes by
threatening jail time.
Marsha Mann
Marsha encouraged her listeners to monitor their
credit card activity and keep up with credit reports.
Marsha Mann of the SLO County Sheriff’s
Office Crime Prevention Unit spoke at the most recent Footprinter’s International Chapter 73 meeting
on the depth and breadth of identity theft.
Footprinter International is a law enforcement
support group. The local chapter raises funds for scholarships, acknowledgement of outstanding local officers
and dispatchers, and for officers and their families who
find themselves in need of assistance. Footprinters,
Chapter 73, also hosts Cops ‘n Kids Day in Arroyo
Grande in November.
Her purpose was to alert people to the different ways one’s identity can be stolen and criminalized. She emphasized that everyone is vulnerable,
from newborn infants to the elderly.

Notice of Membership Dues Increase
In year 1988, the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Advisory Foundation (SAF), formally Council was formed to fill the
gap between the County's increasing need for law enforcement and the tightening of the county's budget. The Sheriff's
Office's objective was to raise money for future and existing programs through a new non-profit public benefit corporation. Since this time, through the phenomenal efforts of our member volunteer base we have achieved a lot in terms of
raising funds to support the Sheriff's Office, Auxiliary Units and other local law enforcement organizations and agencies in
San Luis Obispo County.
Since year 1988, SAF has not raised its membership dues which started at $100 annually. Unfortunately expenses and requests to fund programs have risen. For this reason, the Board has voted to raise membership dues to help offset rising
costs and increases in funding requests.
Effective July 2015, the membership dues will be increased to $125.00 annually. We are hoping this does not greatly affect
our membership and that everyone will continue to be a valued contributor to the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Advisory Foundation. If there are any questions, or concerns regarding this increase, please let one of the Board members
know.
Again, thank you for supporting the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Advisory Foundation and we look forward to making year 2015 another great year!

Tobacco Sting
The San Luis Obispo County Health Agency’s Tobacco Control Program in coordination with the San Luis Obispo County
Sheriff’s Office completed a recent countywide tobacco sales compliance check operation which ended on March 24, 2015.
The enforcement activity utilized underage decoys to regulate illegal sales of tobacco products to minors and resulted in
twelve (12) businesses selling to a decoy (a 22.64% illegal sales rate) in the unincorporated areas of the county. The illegal
sales rate increased from the last series of compliance operations, increasing from 14.29% to 22.64% in the latest round of
monitoring.
The compliance checks focused on unincorporated communities including but not limited to San Miguel, Santa Margarita,
Cambria, Cayucos, Los Osos, Avila Beach, Oceano and Nipomo. The incorporated cities within the county did not participate in these sting operations. With the assistance of three local teen (under age 18) decoys, fifty-three (53) tobacco retailer
locations were visited throughout the county. Twelve clerks of the 53 retailers illegally sold tobacco to the decoy, accounting
for the 22.64% sales rate. Under Penal Code § 308(a), it is a misdemeanor to sell tobacco products to anyone under the age
of 18.
The twelve (12) stores that engaged in the illegal sale of tobacco products to a minor with no prior violations were: 1) Kachi
Tobacco, 538 Tefft Street, Nipomo; 2) Los Berros Market, 2012 Los Berros Rd, Arroyo Grande; 3) Los Osos Liquor, 2004
10th Street, Los Osos; 4) Margarita Plaza Liquor, 22350 El Camino Real, Santa Margarita; 5) Shandon Market, 240 East Centre Street, Shandon. The following stores sustained their second violation: 6) A-1 Liquors, 105 South Main Street, Templeton;
7) Cambria Chevron, 2194 Main Street, Cambria; 8) Central Market, 2061 Cienega Street, Oceano; 9) Old Cambria Marketplace, 589 Main Street, Cambria. The following stores sustained their third violation: 10) La Placita Market, 515 Orchard Avenue, Nipomo; 11) Santa Margarita Mercantile, 22304 “G” Street, Santa Margarita. The following store sustained their fourth
violation: 12) Mission Market & Deli, 1402 Mission Street, San Miguel.
Retail clerks with tobacco sales violations are issued a Notice to Appear and criminally prosecuted through Superior Court.
By county ordinance, any business in violation is subject to an administrative hearing with penalties to include suspension of
their ability to retail tobacco and a $1000 fine for each offense. First and second offender business may elect to participate in
a diversion program aimed at onsite education for employees and point-of-sale upgrades that use technology to prevent future sales.
The San Luis Obispo County Health Agency's Tobacco Control Program offers retailer training on how to refuse a sale,
methods to identify an underage buyer and instruction on properly reading an identification card or driver’s license. Members
of the public or media with questions regarding the sale of tobacco products to minors are encouraged to call the Tobacco
Control Program at (805) 781-5564.

San Luis Obispo County Sheriff ’s Advisory
Foundation
WHAT IS THE SHERIFF’S ADVISORY FOUNDATION?
The Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation is a non-profit, Section 501(c) (3) Public Benefit Corporation formed to provide funding and
additional support to the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office and of other law enforcement agencies in San Luis Obispo
County; IRS Tax EIN # 77-0189925.
WHAT IS THE NEED FOR A SHERIFF’S ADVISORY FOUNDATION—AREN’T OUR TAX
DOLLARS ENOUGH?
Unfortunately, no, YOUR TAX DOLLARS ARE NOT ENOUGH. San Luis Obispo County operates on a strict and structured budget that must be divided among all county services. With the continued growth of the county, there is not enough
money in the budget to provide all of the sophisticated, costly and updated equipment and personnel needed.
Many of these Advisory Foundation groups are being successfully formed throughout the state to help augment and support law
enforcement agencies. This is the expressed intent of this organization.
WHY SHOULD I SUPPORT THE COUNTY SHERIFF WHEN I LIVE IN AN INCORPORATED AREA? WE HAVE OUR OWN POLICE OFFICE.
Many police agencies in the County are small. Funds will be available to help those Offices as well. The County Sheriff’s Office has overlapping jurisdictions in several areas and provides a support organization to all agencies. In addition, the Sheriff’s Office handles Marshall Functions and provides Coroner response to all deaths in the county regardless of jurisdictions.
THE SHERIFF’S ADVISORY FOUNDATION NEEDS YOUR MEMBERSHIP
The Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation urges you to join in making an investment in the future law enforcement in San Luis Obispo
County. Annual membership fee is $100.00 and $25.00 for junior membership to age 21. If you are interested in joining the San
Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation please complete the Application Form or if you prefer a full page Application visit the Foundation’s website http://www.sacslo.org
Donations
Donations are accepted to provide funds to the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Advisory Foundation towards supporting the
SLO Sheriff’s Office and other local Law Enforcement Agencies in San Luis Obispo County.
