  SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPUTY JEFFERY DEAN ASSISTS ROBBERY 
                                 VICTIM

                                  _____
                                 

                             HON. PAUL COOK

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 19, 2017

  Mr. COOK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the outstanding 
public service of San Bernardino County Sheriff's Deputy Jeffery Dean, 
who is assigned to the department's Victorville City Station. For the 
past three years, Deputy Dean has served as a patrol deputy, traffic 
division deputy, and is also a certified Major Accident Investigation 
Team (MAlT) deputy.
  On May 14, 2017, Deputy Dean was on patrol in Victorville, California 
when he made contact with a young man from the State of Washington who 
was working in the area as a magazine salesman. Deputy Dean noticed 
injuries to the man's face and was told that they were the result of a 
robbery in which the victim's wallet and cell phone were stolen.
  Realizing the man's dire situation, Deputy Dean took it upon himself 
to pay for the man to stay in a hotel room, and he purchased a bus 
ticket so the victim could return to his family in Washington.
  Every day, men and women in the law enforcement profession work 
tirelessly to make a difference in our communities. However, often 
times, their work goes unnoticed in the media and press. I would like 
to take a moment to highlight the great work of Deputy Dean and the 
entire San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department for their commitment 
to public service.
