Kendall County Sheriff’s Office Hires Two New Patrol Deputies

The Kendall County Sheriff’s Office has hired two new deputies to fill vacancies in the Operations Division. Anthony “Tony” Ikis and Champ Evans were sworn in on Monday, June 8, 2026, by Sheriff Dwight Baird.

Deputies Ikis and Evans will complete an internal office acclimation training phase and will then be paired with experienced field training officers for the field training phase (FTO).

Deputy Ikis attended Triton College and worked for the River Grove Police Department for twenty-seven years before joining the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office. Deputy Evans attended Benedictine University, earning a Master’s Degree in organizational development and behavior, and worked for the Bolingbrook Police Department for twenty-eight years, and the Oswego Police Department for several years before that, before joining the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office.

Please join us in welcoming Deputies Ikis and Evans to the KCSO team!
