FHP Sergeant says good-bye By Sgt. Joe Mosca to Sheriff Bob Peryam: It has been my most profound pleasure to work with each of you, the Sheriff, your road supervisors and deputies. Prior to coming to Monroe County, I had twenty years of duty in the Miami-Dade area in various capacities and working with all the departments there.

As I return to work in Miami-Dade County, I will miss the profound professionalism of your department. I am sure that the relationship between the Monroe County Sheriff s Department and the FHP will continue to grow as the new troopers will learn that they will be working alongside some of the most professional law enforcement officers I have ever experienced.
