The Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office held a swearing in ceremony for thirty new Deputy Sheriff Recruits on Wednesday, October 11, 2023, at the Maxine S. Postal Auditorium in the Riverhead County Center. This is the largest class of Deputy Sheriff since 1999.


 


These new Deputy Sheriff Recruits will begin a rigorous six-month training program that includes instruction in firearms, emergency vehicle operations (EVOC), EMT training, and individualized field training. The recruits will graduate in May, joining a force consisting of 249 Suffolk County Deputy Sheriffs.


 


Sheriff Toulon welcomed the new deputies to the Sheriff’s Office, reminding them that “starting today you now hold a position of authority in Suffolk County and must take the commitment to protect and serve our residents very seriously as it is a great responsibility.”
