    logo_ycsoCottonwood AZ (May 7, 2014) – Thanks to grant funding made possible by the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, selected Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office deputies participated in both a DUI checkpoint and special patrol operation this past weekend.

    On Friday night, May 2, 2014, YCSO deployed 7 deputies to assist a multi-agency DUI checking located adjacent to the Verde Valley Fair in Cottonwood. Deputies contacted 620 drivers and arrested 1 person for DUI/Drugs. In that case, the deputy detected the odor of marijuana as the vehicle was entering the checkpoint lane. The driver, 46-year-old Paul Guy from Phoenix, was contacted. Deputies conducted a series of field 20140507_ycsosobriety tests and determined Guy was driving impaired and under the influence of cannabis. After Guy was arrested, deputies performed an inventory search of his vehicle and found a .44 caliber handgun along with a baggie containing marijuana, bottle of prescription medications, and a marijuana pipe. Guy was booked at the Camp Verde Detention Center on charges including Possession of a Deadly Weapon during Commission of a Felony, Possession of Marijuana and Drug Paraphernalia, and DUI Drugs. He has since been released on a $5000 bond.

    During the checkpoint, deputies were pleased to contact 8 designated and sober drivers and continue to encourage this smart planning which can save lives – maybe your own.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
