Jessica Edwards
Sarasota Police Department


Jessica was presented
and honored before the City Commission
on Tuesday, January 3, 2012

 

Jessica Edwards, Administrative Specialist I, is in touch with the media on a daily basis. Reporters contact Captain Paul Sutton’s office requesting copies of SPD matters or other information referencing arrests or incidents that occur in the City of Sarasota. Jessica is the go-to person to locate releases to the media. Occasionally this information can be located in the Records Unit. Most of the time, the information requested references an investigation conducted by a Detective in CID.

If there is a concern regarding the release of paperwork, Jessica will relay that information to SPD personnel and Captain Sutton can then determine what should be released to the media.

Jessica was most helpful in the week following the double homicide of the British tourists visiting our City.

She assisted SPD by contacting the Detectives working the investigation involving the suspect in order to receive information from a previous incident that reporters – local, national, and international – requested.

Jessica juggles many different tasks every day. Her focus in daily problem solving is second to none. She is very organized and takes great consideration in generating maximum output despite obstacles in the work area. Her loyalty to this organization is exceptional. She serves the Sarasota Police Department with excellence and pride. Congratulations!
