Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Ohio sheriff orders deputies not to evict December 10, 2008 07:44 EST HAMILTON, Ohio (AP) -- A sheriff in southwest Ohio has ordered deputies to ignore eviction orders when people have nowhere else to live. Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones says evictions in winter weather and during an economic recession are heartless and those cases should be sent back to the courts and resolved some other way. Jones on Tuesday ordered deputies to ensure that people have shelter before they're forced out of their homes. He also sent a letter to Gov. Ted Strickland asking him to issue a state order to stop forced evictions for at least the winter months. The sheriff could face court action if a bank or landlord challenges his refusal to honor a court-ordered eviction. Jones says he will face any consequences of his order. ------ Information from: The Cincinnati Enquirer, http://www.enquirer.com In 1985 Richard was promoted to the rank of Senior Captain and was responsible for the prison’s security audits. He served in this capacity of Senior Captain and the Warden’s designee for inmate appeals from 1985 to 1990 when he was promoted again to the respected rank of Major. Richard served as Major at the Lebanon Correctional Institute from 1990 until he accepted the position as Chief of the Butler County Sheriff’s Office in 1993 where he proudly serves today. Richard’s formal education began in 1977 at the Hocking Technical College where he received an Associate Degree in Corrections in 1979. He then attended Wilmington College where he graduated in 1981 with a Bachelor Degree in Criminal Justice. In 1984 he earned a Master Degree in Corrections from Xavier University. Richard and his wife, Becky have two children: Richard Jr., who is active in the U.S. Military, and Amanda, who is a Communications Officer with the West Chester Township Police Department. During Richard’s tenure as Butler County Sheriff's Chief Deputy, he orchestrated putting more deputies on the streets to help the Sheriff’s Office respond to calls for service faster. He’s worked hard to help make more jail cells available to lock up more criminals and increase the productivity and efficiency of the office through computer automation. Richard K. Jones was sworn in as the 45th Sheriff of Butler County Ohio on January 2nd, 2005. He took over the office on Monday January 3rd, 2005. Richard’s continuing record as an administrator of the Butler County Sheriff’s Office for over 14 years reflects a continuing dedication and commitment to the safety of everyone in Butler County.
