The Greenland Police Department remembers Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill of the NH State Police, he was tragically killed in the line of duty five years ago today.

RIP 🖤💙🖤

Today, we honor and remember Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill, who was tragically killed in the line of duty five years ago.

Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill
1977-2021

Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill was raised in Barrington. He attended elementary and middle schools there and graduated from Dover High School, where he was a strong athlete in baseball and football. After graduating from Westfield State University, Jesse entered law enforcement in New Hampshire, hired by the Hooksett Police Department in 2001.

In December of 2002, Jesse was hired by the Division of State Police, and his first assignment as a Trooper was to the northernmost patrol in the state. After successful patrol assignments in Troops F, A, and with the Narcotics Investigations Unit (NIU), Jesse achieved the rank of Sergeant and Staff Sergeant, becoming Assistant Commander of Troop A in 2021.

On the night of Thursday, October 28, 2021, Staff Sergeant Sherrill was working an extra duty detail on Interstate 95 in Portsmouth, providing traffic protection as a crew worked on the shoulder, when a tractor-trailer struck his cruiser from behind at highway speed, causing him fatal injuries. Staff Sergeant Sherrill gave his life in service to others. Well known for being an extremely hard worker and dedicated family man, he worked many extra hours to support his family, while also protecting the hours to maintain a deep involvement in his children’s lives, including as a beloved baseball coach and dance Dad.

Staff Sergeant Sherrill was a coach and mentor both in and out of the uniform. He embodied a love for community, for service in public safety, for life lessons that can be taught by sport, and for family. He has left the Division a better place than he found it, with many a colleague who will seek to emulate his example. He leaves behind a loving wife, Nicolle, and two children, Peyton and Quinn.

He will never be forgotten.
