𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐌 𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐅𝐅 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐋𝐈𝐍 𝐑𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐘𝐎𝐍𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐀 𝐄𝐍𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐃 𝐏𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐄𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐓 April 15, 2025 I spoke with Jennifer Bragg, the Yoncalla City Administrator, this afternoon. Last night, the Sergeant for the North County Patrol Office was informed by the City Manager that the City Council had voted not to renew the contract. This statement, along with later conversations about how many more city council meetings the Sergeant would need to attend and the fact that deputies wouldn’t be handling certain duties anymore, gave the Sergeant the impression—based on what the City Manager said—that the enhanced police services contract was ending on June 30, 2025. No further clarification was provided to the Sergeant. Today, however, the City Manager has since clarified with me that this was not the direction given to her by the Council. The City Manager indicated to me that she will accept responsibility for this apparent misunderstanding. The previous Facebook post was not intended to demean or humiliate the Mayor, City Council or the City Manager of Yoncalla, nor was it intended to cause fear amongst the city residents. It was simply shared with the purpose of sharing valuable information with those affected. I am encouraged to hear that the contract is still under consideration and encourage open communication and community involvement. I look forward to speaking with the City Council and answering any questions they may have and continuing our partnership with the City of Yoncalla. Respectfully, John W. Hanlin, Sheriff

𝐀𝐍 𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐍 𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐁𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐎𝐖𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐘𝐎𝐍𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐀 𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐌 𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐅𝐅 𝐉𝐎𝐇𝐍 𝐖. 𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐋𝐈𝐍 April 15, 2025 Residents and Business Owners of Yoncalla, I’m writing today with disappointment and concern following the City Council’s decision last night (April 14, 2025), to end the enhanced police services contract with the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. I understand that city leadership is tasked with the difficult job of allocating limited resources just as the county is. These are not easy decisions. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐈 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐦𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞 — 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨 𝐚𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥 — 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐬𝐚𝐟𝐞𝐭𝐲 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲. 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞, 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐲. Ending this contract means stepping away from a level of law enforcement that has provided consistent neighborhood patrols, services to schools, traffic enforcement, business checks, ordinance enforcement, and a regular presence that contributes not just to safety, but to a sense of stability and community. These are not small things — they are the very services that help prevent crime, deter unwanted activity, and build trust between law enforcement and the people we serve. The city has offered $50,000 for basic response to 911 calls, but at this time, that won’t be necessary. Just as we do for unincorporated parts of the county, the Sheriff’s Office will continue to respond to emergencies within city limits. For non-emergency calls, however, residents may see a noticeable difference. Calls will be prioritized and handled as resources allow, and often without the direct, personal response many have come to expect. I think it is important for the residents of the city to understand that the proposed FY26 contract included only a 4% increase — just over $6,000 more than last year — bringing the total to $140,314.39. That figure is still more than $21,000 less than what it costs the county to staff a single mid-step deputy. In return, the City of Yoncalla would have continued to receive 24/7 coverage, including all the enhanced services residents and businesses benefit from daily. This contract was never about a steep increase — it was about continuing to invest in a level of protection and presence that we all know makes a difference. I am also disappointed to share that I sent a letter to the City Manager outlining this information and offering to discuss the future of the enhanced police services contract. Unfortunately, I did not receive a response, nor was I invited to meet with the City Manager or City Council to talk through the details. Given the impact this decision has on public safety, I had hoped for a more collaborative and communicative approach. In closing, I cannot help but feel it is a step backward. In times when public safety is becoming more complex, not less, this is not the moment to scale back. I truly hope the funds being saved through this decision will go toward initiatives that serve the community well — but I remain firmly convinced that few investments are as foundational as public safety. The men and women of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office have been proud to serve Yoncalla through this partnership, and it’s been an honor to work with your city and serve all of you. If the City Government’s priorities shift in the future, the Sheriff’s Office is ready to discuss re-establishing this agreement with your elected and appointed city officials. Until then, we remain committed to responding to emergencies and doing our best with the resources available. Respectfully, John W. Hanlin, SheriffPhotos from Douglas County Sheriff's Office's post

Yesterday, our Crisis Negotiation Team, made up of staff from the Sheriff's Office and Winston Police Department, had the opportunity to conduct scenario-based training at Roseburg High School. This hands-on training is an essential part of building and sharpening the skills needed to effectively respond in critical situations. A huge thank you to the Riddle Fire Protection District for their incredible support—they not only provided staff but also brought out their ladder truck to assist with the training. We’re also extremely grateful to Roseburg Public Schools for allowing us to use the school grounds. Access to real-world environments is critical in preparing our team for crisis scenarios. These opportunities help us train more effectively and ensure we’re ready to serve our community when it matters most. These partnerships are vital to our success, and we truly appreciate the collaboration and community spirit that makes this kind of training possible.Photos from Douglas County Sheriff's Office's post

𝐊𝟗 𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐒 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐊𝐒 𝐃𝐎𝐖𝐍 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐎 𝐑𝐀𝐍 𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐌 𝐏𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐄 🐾 🚔 🐕 🦴 ROSEBURG, Ore. - A wanted 26-year-old Roseburg man who ran from law enforcement was taken into custody with the assistance of K9 Eros. On Wednesday, April 2, 2025, shortly before 6:00 p.m., a Roseburg officer observed Kai Preston Valente walking on S.E. Pine Street. Knowing he was wanted by his Parole Officer, the officer attempted to stop Valente who ran ensuing a foot pursuit despite being told he was under arrest. Valente was eventually located hiding under a bridge with a steep embankment beneath him. The officers requested the assistance of a K9 unit. Douglas County Sheriff's Office K9 Eros was dispatched to the incident. Valente continued to be non-compliant, ignoring numerous law enforcement's commands. After multiple warnings from officers about the presence of the dog and what would happen if he was released, K9 Eros was deployed and took control of Valente until he was taken into custody. He was lodged in the Douglas County Jail on the Parole Violation and a charge of Escape III. K9 Eros, a 5.5-year-old German Shepherd, has been with the Douglas County Sheriff's Office since November 2021. He was purchased by an anonymous donor in the community and gifted to the agency. The Sheriff's Office K9 program, consisting of three Patrol K9 teams and 1 narcotic detection K9 team, is supported financially by private donations and the Friends of Umpqua Valley Police K9 Programs, a non-profit organization whose mission is to support local police K9 teams. Bailey's Veterinary Clinic provides medical care and some food for the Sheriff's Office K9 program while Coastal Farm and Home Supply provides all other food. The agency’s current K9 program has been highly active since 2013.
