We would like to thank and congratulate AOCDS member, Deputy Probation Officer Cynthia Madrigal, for a job well done. Largely due to DPO Madrigal’s commitment and tenacity, a seven-month long investigation has resulted in the dismantling of a bicoastal drug trafficking organization and the arrest of six individuals, including her probationer.
I am pleased to announce that Francisco Ochoa has been appointed by the AOCDS Board of Directors as the newest board member from our recently added bargaining units consisting of probation officers, Sheriff-Coroner investigators, public assistance investigators and park rangers.
The AOCDS Memorial Fund assists peace officers or the families of officers who are killed or injured in the line of duty, suffering from a serious medical condition, experiencing a catastrophic circumstance, disabled, or retired and in need of assistance. This includes, but is not limited to, sworn deputy sheriffs or peace officers with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, district attorney’s office, probation department and OC Parks. The fund also helps qualifying officers across the state of California and awards annual scholarships to select children of members entering their first year at a college or university, among many other things.
