Family members (past and present) came together for BBQ, ice cream, a petting zoo, and a visit from Santa and the Grinch! Thank you, Sheriff Marceno, for bringing us together for a family-filled day of fun to celebrate this holiday season! 🎄 🎅 ... See MoreSee Less

✨ SPOTLIGHT SATURDAY ✨ SERGEANT JAMI NAJARRO Protecting those who cannot defend themselves, especially animals, has been a pillar of Sheriff Carmine Marceno’s tenure in Lee County. To that end, the Animal Cruelty Task Force investigates reports of animal cruelty, neglect or mistreatment, and helps educate the public on proper care for pets.Helping to lead that charge is Sgt. Jami Najarro, who started with LCSO in 2005 as a Community Service Aide and became an East District deputy in 2008. Promoted to Detective, she took the lead on a big case investigating aggravated animal cruelty involving a canine with its mouth duct-taped shut. When found, the dog was bleeding from puncture wounds on its chest and front paw while struggling to breathe. After recovering, the dog was adopted by Lt. Rich Castellon and later renamed “Chance” by Sheriff Marceno. Ultimately, Chance’s abuser was identified, arrested, and sentenced to prison.“Once I got a couple of other animal cases, it kind of became my new thing,” Najarro recalled. When promoted to Sergeant is 2020, she was named to the Animal Cruelty Task Force.“I’ve always loved animals so investigating these cases is difficult to do sometimes,” said Najarro. “To see the circumstances some people leave their pets in is tough. But the reward of our job is not only when we have a successful resolution from a criminal aspect, but also when we’re able to find good, loving homes for many of these animals.”Recently, Sgt. Najarro attained the status of Advanced Investigator – Level 2 from the National Animal Cruelty Investigation School. It’s part of her ongoing training and education within the ACTF.Thus far in 2022, the task force has responded to a total of 123 calls, including 22 involving livestock. While Hurricane Ian disrupted much of life in general in Lee County, Sgt. Najarro noted there was not a particular spike in distress calls as a result of the storm. “It helped that all of the shelters were animal-friendly,” she said. “Some pets were displaced but we didn’t see an alarming number and that’s largely due to people being able to bring their pets to the shelters.”While not the easiest part of the job – Najarro confesses apprehension about public speaking – the Lee County ACTF also helps educate the public, especially kids, about the responsibilities of pet ownership. “It’s important to give that information,” she explained. “Animals don’t have their choice to be your pets. Humans select their pets and because of that, you choose to care for them.”Another message ACTF hopes to impart to the public is a responsibility to report suspected cases of animal abuse and cruelty via email or phone. “They just need to contact us so that we can investigate,” Sgt. Najarro said. “That’s a point of emphasis and we have a lot of support. We have an amazing group of detectives and nothing stops us from doing our job to help animals who need us.” Lee County Sheriff's Office Animal Cruelty Task Force ... See MoreSee Less
