We have obtained an arrest warrant for attempted felony murder against Ryan Routh, the would-be assassin of President @realdonaldtrump. Under the leadership of @GovRonDeSantis, we vowed to bring transparency and accountability to the investigation into the second assassination attempt of President Trump. Despite the federal government frustrating our efforts, which we continue to challenge in court, we found that Mr. Routh’s actions caused catastrophic injuries to a six-year-old girl. We continue to seek justice for President Trump, and we will fight just as hard to ensure Mr. Routh pays for the tragedy his criminal actions brought on a Florida family. myfloridalegal.com/newsrelea…

While your phone might be blowing up this Black Friday, don’t peruse the deals while behind the wheel! Every 44 seconds, a crash occurs in Florida, and one in seven are a result of a distracted driver. Stay alert so you (and your new flat screen T.V.) arrive home safely. Flhsmv.gov/Holiday

It is with heavy hearts that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of our third motorman, Deputy Ignacio “Dan” Diaz, at 12:42 pm today. Despite his courageous fight, Deputy Diaz lost the battle due to the injuries sustained by the tragic crash that also claimed the lives of Cpl. Luis Paez and D/S Butch Waller. Once again, we find ourselves mourning the loss of another hero who dedicated his life to serving and protecting Palm Beach County. We stand together, honoring their memory and supporting their families, friends, and colleagues through this time of immense sorrow. Let us remember their courage and commitment to duty as we pledge to continue their legacy of service. To serve and protect was their oath—honoring them is our duty.

It is with profound sadness that we share the loss of two of our own: Corporal Luis Paez & Deputy Sheriff Ralph “Butch” Waller. Both were tragically struck and killed by a driver on Southern Blvd while conducting traffic enforcement. Deputy Ignacio “Dan” Diaz was also critically injured in the crash and is currently fighting for his life. Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of our brothers, honor their memory, and support their families during this devastating time. Please keep Deputy Diaz in your prayers as he continues to fight. To serve and protect was their oath; to honor them is our duty. #PBSOFallen

👇Please note: Drive high, get a DUI, or worse, hurt yourself, those you love, and others on the road. Driving while under the influence of ANY substance that alters your ability to focus, react, or make clear decisions IS driving impaired. Educate your families, protect your kids!
17 Oct 2024
Florida Sheriffs Alert: Impaired driving affects more than just you. Marijuana is sending more kids to the E.R., is often tied to domestic abuse, and is causing increased car collisions, fatalities, and insurance rates. Educate your families—protect your kids!
