From the Desk of the ISSDA President If You Are Not Presently an ISSDA Member, Consider the Many Benefits Available to You I once again would like to express my appreciation to all members of this great association who have shown your support to me during my run up to the beginning of my term as your President. I consider this a great honor and I look forward to serving you to the best of my ability. As I write this, a major winter storm is predicted so as you read this perhaps you can think back to the days of late January and early February and be thankful those days are again behind us and we are moving into springtime, where we again witness the renewal of all our outdoor plants and look forward to outdoor activities. The legislative session is in full swing and many bills are being offered, debated and voted on that affect each and every one of us in different and like ways. I had the opportunity to address the house public safety committee on our legislative priorities in the first week of February, at which time I primarily discussed weapons laws, narrow banding and the committal process. My main priority was to inform the committee that all sheriffs are doing their best to follow the new carry/ conceal law and, although some areas are troublesome to some of us, we will continue to do our best to follow the law and keep the safety of ALL Iowans in mind when determining the wisdom of issuing a permit to an applicant. On the narrow-banding issue, I explained the disparity of land-line compared to wireless-line surcharges and the loss of revenue all of us are seeing due to people dropping their land lines in preference of cell phones. I also expressed that when considering an increase in the wireless surcharge, it is imperative that an increase to local PSAPs be included in any legislation or it likely would not do us much good. On the committal issue I expressed that many sheriffs offices still have significant wait times upon arrival at hospitals and the expense of 6 The Gold Star Sheriff Dewey Hildebrandt Bremer County backfilling that deputy time especially in the small counties has a direct bearing on the service we are able to provide our citizens. I have heard a lot of positive comments on the winter school that was held this past December, and I commend the Schools Committee for such an outstanding job of getting speaker/ trainers who are relevant and interesting. The schools committee year in an year out raises their own bar of expectations, so the challenge will be for them to continue to represent each of us in such a professional manner. I am assured that the room issue many people experienced this year at the hotel has been corrected and the hotel construction will be completed, so things should go much better in that regard next year. Much will be happening throughout the year, and I encourage each of you to stay involved, get involved and to share your thoughts and ideas with any one of your board members or committee members. It is ultimately very important that we maintain our membership numbers for many reasons, not the least of which is that it allows us to provide the great training sessions we do throughout the year. Recently, your board had the opportunity to review our membership list and we could not help but notice that a number of counties have no members. We would ask that all potential members from those counties give consideration to renewing their memberships or becoming members. I also would point out that our membership numbers along with the philosophy that all sheriffs offices follow the same uniform standards to include the white car with the sheriffs striping for uniform patrol is what gives us the respect from citizens we serve and the attention that we deserve both in the media and on the hill at the state capital. If you are currently not a member, please consider joining, you may find the benefits of membership are greater than what you thought possible. Finally, on that issue your board does want to hear from you both for positive things or for ideas that you have that may make us a stronger association, so please feel free to contact any one of us. I have pledged to keep all of you informed as to what we are doing, to include sending out our board agenda to all counties a week prior to our meeting, if you have an issue that you feel we should discuss please feel free to contact me so I can get it on the agenda. As I pledged at our Winter School, I plan to have your board be a team board. All our thoughts, ideas and votes count as one, so it is vital that each of us share our ideas, focus on the future of ISSDA, and continue to work cooperatively to make us the best association representing law enforcement in the State of Iowa. Your board is already showing they are interested down to work at our meetings. Think about how our decisions affect everyone, and act according to what we believe is best for our membership and the citizens of Iowa. I am proud to be a small part of it. Please update your calendars with these ISSDA School dates Holiday Inn-Airport April 17-20, 2011 $ 69.00 Cut off for rooms will be March 25th Holiday Inn-Airport Sept 11-14, 2011 $ 69.00 Cut off for rooms will be August 19th Embassy Suites Dec 4-7, 2011 $105.00

ISSDA Secretary s Report 2010 Was a Busy Year for ISSDA Committees; Outstanding Joint School w/ Corrections Assn. Happy New Year to all! I m Don Orgel, Chief Deputy of Hardin County, and your secretary for the year. I have been serving ISSDA since 1992, mostly serving on the Jails Committee. I look forward to this opportunity and challenge. I don t write too fast and I am a computer dinosaur, but I will get the job done. ISSDA will have a new web site up and running this year. Association members will be able to find the board minutes posted, and I will do my best to keep everyone informed. Two thousand ten was a busy year for many of the committees. The School Committee did an excellent job as usual of putting on three schools and providing ISSDA merchandise for sale to attending members. Everyone also discovered that the Board couldn t dance or sing! The Jail Committee had a first: Chief Deputy Don Orgel Hardin County They partnered with the Iowa Corrections Association in holding a joint school in September that filled the hotel. The training was outstanding and the networks created will be a benefit to many. The Legislature may have had a shorter secession, but it didn t seem shorter for those of us on the Legislative Committee. The State Capitol steps became very familiar and a source of pain to the knees. Thank you Susan for your guidance and perseverance, and thank you to the committee that spent so much time there with me last year. I want to thank Brian Vos for his leadership, guidance and the steady hand at the tiller he provided as president of the ISSDA last year! Dewey is now president, so let us support him and ISSDA with vigor! GO PACKERS! Let s be safe out there. Don Lifes-saving act on November 29, 2010 Linn County Deputy Austin Oates Presented Life-Saving Award Life-saving award winner Austin Oates, Linn County Deputy Sheriff. On Monday, November 29, 2010, Deputy Austin Oates was working in the Linn County Correctional Center as a 2nd floor deputy. At approximately 1645 hours, he had just finished passing evening meal trays when he walked by a cellblock and observed an inmate attempting to assist another inmate who appeared to be choking. Deputy Oates removed the choking inmate from the cellblock, noted that his face was flush and his lips had turned purple, and confirmed that he was unable to breathe. After calling for medical assistance, Deputy Oates performed the Heimlich maneuver several times on the inmate and was finally able to dislodge a large piece of food from the throat of the inmate, allowing him to resume breathing. In speaking with the Assistant Jail Administrator after the incident, the inmate advised that he thought that he was going to die until Deputy Oates arrived to provide him with medical assistance. In reviewing the video of this incident, Deputy Oates remained calm and performed his duties properly, as he had been trained. Based on this information, there is little doubt that the actions of Deputy Oates ultimately saved this individual s life. Because of his exemplary effort, Deputy Austin Oates was warded the Linn County Sheriff s Office Life Saving Award. First Quarter 2011 7

The reserve officers completed 80 hours of training as outlined by the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy, and also completed 40 hours of supervised on-duty time. The 80 hours of training was broken down into several modules with a supervised test at the completion of each module. The training ranged from report writing to hands-on emergency vehicle operation. For many of the reserves, this was quite a daunting task. Many of the reserve deputies also maintain a full-time job, leading the reserve deputy to balance work, homework and testing from the training modules. The Sheriff s Office uses reserve deputies to supplement its full-time force. The reserve deputies are routinely used for special assignments including the Clayton County Fair, Special Traffic Enforcement Checkpoints, prisoner transports, mental committal transports, security at crime scenes, courthouse security, and filling in open patrol shifts for the county and for cities when needed.

A Message from the ISSDA Auxiliary We just finished up a great winter school in December and would like to thank the Iowa State Sheriffs and Deputies Association for their support of our organization. I would like to take a moment to introduce our new officers and let you know about an exciting new program the Auxiliary is implementing this coming year. Our 2011 officers are President: Pamela Dunbar, Washington County; Vice President: Jodi Haley, Ringgold County; Secretary / Treasurer: Sandy Vos, Warren County. We have begun a program called The Auxiliary Angel Program. It is our desire as an organization to support the Sheriffs, Deputies, and their families during times of crisis. A few examples would be a military deployment, loss of an immediate family member, or other tragedy. We will be contacting all Sheriffs Offices to set up a liaison with the Auxiliary to assist us with knowledge of personnel they may have that would benefit from our support. We are very excited about the opportunity to be able to offer support, and hopefully make an impact within all our county Sheriff Offices in the State. We encourage all spouses of Sheriffs and Deputies within the association to become involved with the Auxiliary. Please feel free to contact any one of our officers or current members for more information.
