It was on this day, back in 2005, that Deputy Jerry Ortiz lost his life while serving his community. He wasn’t just someone who wore the badge—he stood for loyalty, bravery, and a deep sense of duty. Those who knew him remember more than just a deputy; they remember a man who truly cared and always put others before himself.
