Sarpy County Board of Corrections approves deputy's continued role in jail operations

During the recent Sarpy County Board of Corrections meeting, significant discussions centered around the status of Deputy Larry Sellers, who has dedicated 38 years to the county's corrections operations. The board unanimously approved a resolution to preserve his status as a sworn deputy sheriff while he continues his work at the Sarpy County Corrections Center.

Deputy Sellers plays a crucial role in managing inmate populations, handling classifications, and coordinating with the judicial system. His ongoing presence in the facility is vital for serving protection orders and executing civil process paperwork, as well as addressing any crimes that may occur within the jail. The resolution ensures that he can continue to fulfill these responsibilities beyond the previously set end date of June 30, 2025.

The meeting also included the approval of minutes from the previous session and a proclamation recognizing the contributions of certain employees, highlighting the board's commitment to acknowledging the hard work of its staff.

As Sarpy County continues to navigate its corrections challenges, the decision to retain Deputy Sellers underscores the importance of experienced personnel in maintaining safety and order within the facility. The board's actions reflect a broader goal of ensuring effective operations and support for both staff and inmates in the community.
