FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Statement from the Mason County Sheriff’s Office

The Mason County Sheriff’s Office is aware that information was provided to a news agency suggesting that allegations of sexual abuse within the county school system had been reported directly to the Sheriff.

To clarify, an individual requested a meeting regarding concerns of this nature. In response, I offered to meet with that individual along with the Mason County Prosecuting Attorney so that any information could be properly received, reviewed, and handled through the appropriate legal channels. That meeting was declined.

The Mason County Sheriff’s Office takes all allegations involving sexual assault, sexual abuse, and crimes against children extremely seriously. Any person who believes they are a victim, or who has information regarding a possible crime, is strongly encouraged to contact the Mason County Sheriff’s Office directly. Every report will be treated with professionalism, sensitivity, and urgency. If criminal conduct is reported, it will be thoroughly investigated and, when supported by the evidence, presented for prosecution.

It is also important to note that some situations referenced publicly may involve matters that have already been adjudicated in a court of law. Out of respect for victims, families, due process, and the integrity of the justice system, the Sheriff’s Office will not try cases in the media or comment on matters beyond what is appropriate.

Our office remains committed to protecting the children and citizens of Mason County. We encourage anyone with firsthand information about abuse or criminal activity to come forward so law enforcement can take the appropriate action.

Public claims should never replace a formal report to law enforcement when someone may be in danger or when a crime may have occurred.

💔💔💔💔💔We are begging our community… PLEASE LEAVE FAWNS ALONE.💔💔💔💔💔
Every single day we are getting messages and emails from people who have already picked up a fawn and then ask how to care for it😡😖😡
This is NOT okay!!! This is NOT legal!!! And this is NOT helping!!!!
If you see a fawn alone for a few hours, that does NOT mean it’s abandoned!!!
Mother deer intentionally leave their babies hidden while they go off to feed. She WILL come back!!!!!!!!!!
When you take that baby you are ILLEGALLY removing wildlife from the wild!!!!
You are causing extreme stress to the fawn!!!!💔
You are separating it from a mother who is actively caring for it💔
Now instead of a healthy baby waiting safely for mom YOU'VE created an orphan that did not need to be one!!!!
Please understand this clearly
Do NOT touch, move, or “rescue” a fawn without speaking to a licensed wildlife professional FIRST!!!!
If you’re reaching out to US , WAIT for a response before doing anything!!!!
We cannot undo the damage once that baby is taken💔.
This is getting completely out of control, and it is costing fawns their lives.💔💔💔
We are literally begging you LEAVE THE FAWNS WHERE THEY ARE!!!!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Mom is nearby. Let HER do HER job!!!

This is a post of something our K-9 handler, Deputy Chris Connor, sent me this evening. It’s a raw text message, so I’ll put the text in quotations. It goes to show us what God can do in our lives. K-9 handlers and their four-legged partners put in many hours of training for situations from drug detection and apprehension of armed and dangerous suspects to search and rescue. Deputy Connor and Chica are hard workers and a great team. We are extremely proud of our K9 team and the Fire and other first responders involved.

The text I received:

“Today sir was remarkable, I got a call about a 76 year old male who went missing around 8am this morning out on his four wheeler on his property out on Willow creek, I then asked if Valley fire n Rescue could assist in locating the male with there drones. I then got K9 chica out and packed up and set off on a track with her locked on, we tracked for probably over two miles through fields the woods and over some hills while tracking I asked the lord to help me find him when I creased the top of the hill and started the decent further into the woods I asked the lord one more time to give me a sign I then yelled out the males name and heard a faint yell back chica then located the male who rolled the four wheeler over the hill and collided with a tree and was trapped under the four wheeler for 4-5 hours myself along with members from Valley fire then flipped the four wheeler off the male and prepared to extract him out of the woods he was a type two diabetic who said didn’t eat since 7 this morning we then back boarded the male and extracted him out and into the care of EMS and then life flighted him to the hospital

Chica sir done a remarkable job along with the rest of Valley fire”

May God bless and heal this man.

Want to thank all the agencies that helped locate the missing juvenile this evening. Also, all the community members that showed up ready to help. We are very blessed to live in a community like ours, where everyone is willing to help at a moment's notice. A lot of cuts, scrapes, ticks, and other various bug bites were accrued, but at the end of the day, everyone, including the young lady, went home safe. Thank God Almighty for keeping her safe.
