Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office

06/05/2026

At the Caddo Sheriff's Office, we are proud to recognize the dedication and compassion our deputies show every day.

Recently, Deputy Schubert went above and beyond the call of duty while assisting at the scene of a traffic crash. During a difficult and emotional situation, she took the time to comfort and console a citizen involved in the accident, demonstrating the care and professionalism that exemplify public service.

Law enforcement is about more than responding to calls—it is about serving people and supporting our community during some of their most challenging moments.

Thank you, Deputy Schubert, for your compassion, dedication, and commitment to the citizens of Caddo Parish. Your actions reflect the very best of the Caddo Sheriff's Office, and we are proud to have you on our team.

CPSO to join Click It or Ticket National Mobilization

The Caddo Sheriff's Office will take part in a statewide seat belt enforcement campaign designed to educate drivers and passengers about the importance of wearing seat belts. This campaign will run from May 19 to June 1 and is funded by a grant from the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission.

Caddo deputies will engage in high-visibility enforcement to raise awareness of seat belt usage and laws, aiming to reduce injuries and fatalities on the road. They will join other law enforcement officers across the state in monitoring for unrestrained drivers and passengers.

Seat belts are proven to be one of the most effective ways to save lives in a crash. Failing to wear a seat belt can influence young people to adopt the dangerous habit of not buckling up. The "Click It or Ticket" campaign emphasizes safety, education, strong laws, and law enforcement support to save lives.

She plans to use the scholarship to pursue a bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Camryn is the daughter of Rodney Stewart and Latoria Grant from Shreveport.

She was selected for the Caddo scholarship based on her academic achievements, leadership skills, and strong character. While at C.E. Byrd, Camryn was a Varsity Cheerleader in her 11th and 12th grades and participated in various clubs, including Mu Alpha Theta during her 11th and 12th grades, the African Studies Club in her 9th and 12th grades, and H.O.S.A. in her 11th and 12th grades. Additionally, she served as a summer counselor for V.O.A. in her 11th grade and has received numerous other academic accolades.

Sheriff's scholarships are funded through the Louisiana Sheriffs' Honorary Membership Program (LSHMP), which enables Louisiana sheriffs to provide scholarships to graduating high school students from each parish where they are affiliated with the program.
