Give Deputy Brian Call His Job Back
Brian Call spent 14 years in construction before becoming a road patrol deputy in 2007. When the Sheriff's Office decided to build a hangar for its aviation unit using inmate labor, the agency put Call in charge. But on his evening shifts monitoring the inmates Call fraternized too much with them.He brought Copenhagen smokeless tobacco and shared it with inmates, and had the inmates' girlfriends bring more to the site. An inmate told another construction supervisor — Deputy Karl Crawford — about the tobacco products. Crawford informed his superiors, beginning a criminal investigation.
