    logo_ycsoPrescott AZ (February 21, 2019) – During a Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office Agency Award ceremony last month, 4 Detention Officers were recognized for saving the life of an inmate in medical distress. On November 16, 2018, Detention Officer’s Brandon Rouse, Paul Balm, Jacob Liptow and Sgt. Shane Chaves, responded to an alert of an inmate possibly having a seizure.

    Officers attempted to wake the concerned inmate without success while noticing white foam and blood around his mouth. Upon further evaluation, the inmate had no pulse and was not breathing. Officers began CPR and retrieved the automated external defibrillator (AED) unit. The AED was used to deliver four separate shocks and officers continued CPR compressions in between transmissions of shocks. When EMS arrived, the inmate had a pulse and was breathing.  Due to the quick thinking, decisive actions and working as a team, each officer involved contributed to the saving of the inmate’s life.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
