Today, Sgt. Wollen, Deputy South, and Deputy Tucker participated in the Great Shake Out. When the ground starts shaking, you know what to do: Drop, Cover, and Hold On!

As you can see, our team took this training VERY seriously. We’re happy to report all three did exactly what they were supposed to do and made it through the drill safely… including Sgt. Wollen’s mustache! 🤣🥸

👏 Kudos to Grays Harbor County Emergency Management for putting this yearly event together and helping to keep our community informed, prepared, and safe. Being ready before an emergency happens can make all the difference!

Stay safe Grays Harbor!

Yesterday at approximately 1300 hours Local Law Enforcement, with the assistance of the Washington State Patrol SWAT team, were able to make a safe entry into the residence and unfortunately located the subject in a second story bedroom deceased from a self-inflicted injury. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family who are dealing with the loss of their loved one after this tragic event.

***POLICE ACTIVITY***

The Grays Harbor County Sheriff's Office along with the Aberdeen Regional Special Response Team (SRT) are on scene of a domestic violence incident in the 900 block of Joann Way in Central Park. Law Enforcement has been on scene since late last night attempting to negotiate the peaceful surrender of a subject who has barricaded himself inside a residence at the location.

Over the past two weeks, myself and other Washington State sheriff’s attended two court hearings regarding Senate Bill 5974. I have stood with other sheriff’s and the Washington State Sheriff’s Association in challenging this legislation because I strongly believe in protecting the constitution, preserving the elected office of sheriff and protecting the voice of voters.

I am pleased to share that yesterday, Thurston County Superior Court Judge Christine Schaller ruled that key provisions of SB 5974 are unconstitutional. Those provisions are qualifications to run for sheriff, Washington State Patrol background checks, free speech and association and candidate certification requirements.

The State of Washington plans to appeal Judge Schaller’s rulings, but for now the county sheriff answers to the citizens of their county, not the Washington State Legislature. The office of sheriff is an independent, constitutional office directly accountable to the citizens through elections and I believe it should stay that way!

🚨 SCAM ALERT – FRAUDULENT CALLS INVOLVING INMATE ACCOUNTS 🚨

The Grays Harbor County Sheriff’s Office is warning the public about a scam targeting people who have recently put money on an inmate’s account.

We received a report from a local resident who was contacted by someone claiming to be a member of the Grays Harbor County Sheriff’s Office Jail staff. The caller requested $600 for ankle monitoring and classes for an incarcerated family member and instructed the victim to send the money through Apple Pay.

The caller had information that made the contact appear legitimate. In this case, the fraudulent call came shortly after the victim had deposited money into an inmate’s account.

Our Jail staff have confirmed they are aware of fraudulent calls associated with the ACCESS inmate payment system.

⚠️ Please remember:

• Do not send money through Apple Pay, Cash App, Venmo, Zelle, gift cards, cryptocurrency, or other payment methods in response to an unsolicited call.

• If someone claiming to be law enforcement asks you to make an immediate payment, stop and verify the request independently.

• Do not rely on the phone number provided by the caller. Contact the agency directly using an official phone number.

• Be especially cautious if the caller knows personal information about an incarcerated family member.

If you receive a suspicious call related to an inmate account or alleged fees, please contact the Grays Harbor County Sheriff’s Office directly to verify the information before sending any money.

When in doubt, hang up and verify.

Earlier this month I had the opportunity to attend the graduation of Deputy Jarrett Strickler from the Corrections Officer Academy in Burien. After completing 10 weeks of training at the Corrections Officer Academy, Deputy Strickler will now complete 12 weeks of Field Training at the Grays Harbor County Jail before being released for solo duties. Please join me in congratulating Deputy Strickler on his accomplishments!!

SEARCH UPDATE: Continued Efforts to Locate Jeffrey Damasiewicz

Our search for Jeffrey Damasiewicz continues, and we remain committed to following every lead and searching for any information that may help bring him home.

On August 29th, Jeffrey’s blue kayak was located in Blue Slough by a good Samaritan.

On August 30th, our Marine Unit returned to the area where the kayak was located and conducted additional searches in hopes of locating further evidence or information that could assist us.

On September 3rd, additional search resources from King County assisted with our ongoing efforts.

On September 14th, divers from King County and Thurston County assisted with an underwater search of the area. Unfortunately, the dive operation did not locate anything that could help us determine Jeffrey’s whereabouts.

Our search has not stopped. We continue to look for any sign, information, or piece of evidence that could help us locate Jeffrey.

The photographs accompanying this post show some of the personal items we are still looking for. If you recognize any of these items, or if you have seen them in or around the waterways where Jeffrey may have traveled, please contact Grays Harbor 911. Please do not assume someone else has already reported something—even a small piece of information could be important.

We want to sincerely thank all of the search and rescue personnel, divers, Marine Unit personnel, good Samaritans, and our partner agencies who have assisted us throughout this search. We are grateful for every person and every resource that has contributed to the effort to locate Jeffrey.

We will continue searching. We will continue following leads. And we will continue working to bring Jeffrey home.
