Community Response Unit (CRU) -

Our Community Response Unit (CRU) was created to solve problems that arise in the community. CRU focuses on establishing and maintaining direct community contacts to foster grassroots partnerships to address and resolve quality of life issues.

The five branches of CRU are Community Outreach, Community Policing, Crime Prevention, Construction Special Investigations and Animal Cruelty Task Force.

Crime Prevention focuses on educating and training our community through programs, partnerships and initiatives. Community Policing establishes community safety teams at providing service and support through interaction and effective communication with homeowners’ associations.

It was also discovered that the suspect had met with the victim on multiple occasions.The victim was able to provide a description of the suspect, the vehicle involved, and the name “Tommy,” though the suspect’s full identity was initially unknown.Through outstanding investigative work, detectives identified the suspect as 20-year-old Tukker Allan Schuchard. This week, deputies made contact with Schuchard and he was taken into the Lee County Jail.Detectives established probable cause to charge Schuchard with one count of Lewd or Lascivious Battery.Sheriff Carmine Marceno stated, “At 20 years old, targeting a minor is predatory behavior, and I will not tolerate that in Lee County. I am beyond thankful for the relentless work of our Special Victims Unit detectives who identified this suspect and took him off our streets.”Our agency remains committed to protecting victims and holding offenders accountable. ...
