Can Suffolk deputies perform police work aside from traffic enforcement? Also what is their pay scale?

in other words yes. deputies have full police powers, same as scpd, county park pd, state police, state park police, mta pd, nypd etc etc etc.

suffolk deputies go through that same police academy as scpd. so do the towns & villages and county park police.

when you say a question like this its always from someone who got a ticket or was told to do something they didnt like

Who makes more money? or is it the same?

Dont worry about the money. all Sheriffs dept. people are assh@les ALL 0F THEM

when you say a question like this its always from someone who got a ticket or was told to do something they didnt likexplains his gaoe and the legacy of the sheriffs office to anyone who he thinks is dissing him

Basically, if the car says POLICE, then they are a police officer. I remember having this argument with some stupid liberal girl in one of my college classes who told me that SUNY cops weren't real cops, the next week she got locked up for discon and an assortment of VTL!! HAHAHA. I remember another moron telling me one time that SCPD Emergency Services were not police officers, they were Emergency Services! I can only imagine the brain cells these morons have.

Yeah but then why does SC Sheriff have Marine, Aviation (I read here that they purchased a helicopter), and K9 units?

I dont think they need a chopper or boats to serve civil papers.

[KIS]

The sheriff does not just serve civil papers, they also perform regular law enforcement duties as well. In many areas of the east end where patrol is sparse by large areas and small police coverage, the sheriffs department performs patrol duties. Also the sheriff is also responsible for both suffolk county correctional facilities in Yaphank and Riverhead. They provide perimeter security, and aside from performing search warrants and searching cell blocks for drugs, a prison break and perimeter security justifies the K-9 unit. The helicopter im sure serves as a valuable asset to perimeter patrol, and as support to other law enforcement agencies, particuarly on the east end who do not have their own helicopter. Complain all you want, but if your wife or kid was dying in the front seat of a car after an accident and the difference between life and death was a 5 minute helicopter ride to stony brook, or a half hour ride by ambulance im sure you wouldn't be complaining about unnecessary resources. As far as a marine bureau, I have never heard of such a thing, but who knows.

not true! look at MacArthur Airport, their vehicles say police, and they're not!! they have peace officer status, not police officer status. they dont go through any police academy. And they carry under their own permit

I used to live in NY and was a police officer here, now I am the Chief Deputy Sheriff in another state Sheriff's agency. To the misinformed or the uneducated, the SHERIFF is the TOP LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER in SUFFOLK COUNTY. NOT the Police Commissioner. Deputy Sheriffs are direct extensions of the sheriff himself and have all the same enforcement powers as police officers, in addition to being empowered to enforce civil law, which regular police officers do not do. This is why they serve warrants, intents to levy, eviction notices, orders of protection, etc. In NYS Criminal procedure law it specifically states that Deputy Sheriffs are police officers with police powers. This is there for a reason. Their jurisdiction is ALL of Suffolk County, every square inch. They may enforce traffic laws, even on the expressway or parkways, which means if you do not stop, you are in a world of trouble.

As far as university police officers are concerned, they are ALL police officers with all powers afforded to them as police officers in other jurisdictions. So all the liberal left-wingers that say they can do something in front of them and they can't do anything, I say, PLEASE TRY IT. We don't have enough examples of perps with no brains already, feel free to add yourself to the list of idiots who know everything.

For all my brothers and sisters behind the shield, stay safe and be well.

Right by the letter of the law they are police officers, by reality, they are glorified processors handing out eviction notices and writing handicap summons during holiday season. I remember having a accident a deputy that was passing stopped and checked on us, and returned and said he called it in and the police would be there shortly. I thanked him for all his help as I and the other driver both called 911 5 + minutes ago.
When they showed up the cop told us the deputies dont handle accidents, its a union thing,between them.It was so obvious he was covering for his ''brother'', real cops help people, not call for other cops for a simple accident. You may have the power, you may have the ''TOP LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER in SUFFOLK COUNTY'' whomever that is supposed to impress, but you do not have the respect of those you serve.

additionally;
Argue and stomp your feet all you want about if I break the law in front of you...I'm 50+ years old and have received 4 summons all during my 20s, I do not run around breaking the law, so I'm not too concerned about you catching me during a pursuit.
I think the most ridiculous thing is other than a vtl violation, the sheriff of Suffolk County and myself both have equal powers of arrest for crimes I witness. All the bragging and boasting isnt impressing anyone. Try doing some work for a living.

Quit your whining because the deputy didn't stop and turn your minor MVA Prop. Damage into a major crime scene idiot, he stopped and asked if your OK, what more do you want him to do? If a Lieutenant, or Sgt. Pulled up they would have done the same thing too, the sector it happened is the one supposed to be handling the accident. Im sure if there were injuries, or a traffic hazard the sheriff would have been tending to injuries, calling for rescue, or keeping civilians away from downed power lines etc. Leave it to the real cops to worry about jurisdiction and union issues, it is not the business of the trolls.

This site is for SC,NC and even the city POLICE, to discuss Policing issues, not for the Sheriffs Dept. to justify its place in Hmmm.... the law community, GO AWAY ALREADY!!!!!! yOU pOLiCE StATuS CrIme FightErS... Go to suffolk issues and start another one of your 30 bozo threads

So the deps wont be involved??I've seen complete strangers, non-police, civilians, stop and check on people involved in accidents. Why shouldnt a deputy, who come on here and brag how they are ''the ultimate cop in suffolk'' do a cops job? You think you are above it all? Like a supervisor? Meanwhile you work in the jails doing corrections work. Like the other post said, You may have the power, you may have the ''TOP LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER in SUFFOLK COUNTY'' whomever that is supposed to impress, but you do not have the respect of those you serve.

[Cope Sgt]

This is all BullShit. Knock if off with the "I'm a real cop and you're Not!" Crap! The ONLY real police in the County is Old Field Village PD! Just kidding.

The post wasnt a sh!tstirrer, nor a donut eating joke..it was the opinion of a civilian, 1 of your employers. I as a deputy may or may not agree, but I respect his opinion. We are what we are, lets not be insecure and start posting about how active we are, or our jurisdiction, or compare ourselves to this job or that job... we perform a vital serivce to the community.

My comparison of real cops VS. Not, was not SCPD Vs. Sheriff, it was Real cop Vs. the moron civilian who watches CSI, NYPD BLUE, Third Watch, Etc. and thinks all of a sudden that he is deputized. Or the moron who has a third cousin, who has a neighbor that has a mailman that knows a guy at a hardward store that has a brother in law who knows someone is a cop, etc. Plain and simple, regardless of Uniform we are all blue. However I get really, really fed up and tired of idiot civilians who watch prime time TV and expect that to be reality. It gets annoying when I take a complaint for a Crim. Misc. Car window, and the moron civilian has the rock on the front seat roped off like a murder weapon- as if I am gonna fingerprint the thing!! The only joy I do get is seeing the look of horror on the complainants face when the first thing I do is take the rock and chuck it in the woods and silently chuckle. With all the cop shows on TV and the liberal media brainwashing droves of people, and the general public having such a monday morning quarterback approach to our job, I think it is due time that "Law Enforcement 101" be a required course in High School just like Gym and Home Economics, so the public can also see that regardless of the idiots on CSI that is not reality.

[pd watcher]

It is no wonder the public has such disdain for the police, when the police have such a poor view of civilians.

It's pretty comical how most of SCPD trashes the deputies on not being real police officers. If this is the case, then what should NYC police officers say about Suffolk County Police when comparing the two, based on police work only. Get a life!

Thats because the Deputies ARE NOT real cops .... when was the last time a deputy responded an emergency call like a robbery, kid not breathing, shooting, etc?

Get a life!whats real funny is not one person bashing deps claimed to be a suffolk cop, in fact several state they were civilians, one in fact stated he was involved in a mva.
As far as scpd vs nypd, I've done both, and Ive read others post it here as well, as far as work goes, in scpd you will do more work, paperwork, calls, documentation, and you will handle it alone, as opposed to being with a partner. As far as gut wrenching, nightmare type calls the city has suffolk beat. I know as a nypd what I said about scpd when comparing the two, "I cant wait". Based on police work..no ccrb, no 1 to 1s with the da the morning after a collar, no court for almost any arrest I've done, a dept that backs their boys when they do the right thing....and as far as the work goes, scpd has bosses who dont let anything slide, mvas that have to be redone instead of just pushed thru like the city bosses would do etc.

I never get into the cop bashing cop nonsense. As far as I'm concerned we're all on the same side. I know I don't see as much nasty stuff as the city guys. But, I have seen everything they have seen and done everything they have done. Car chases, foot pursuits, roll arounds, guns, knives, dead bodies, victims of violence, assaults against myself etc, etc etc. I just don't have to deal with it as often. It really is a pointless argument.

[ohyuratick]

Actually, as a dep I have responded to tons of calls, jackazz.

[nypd>scpd]
