SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Enoch Knight began his career with Solano County’s Sheriff’s Office as a Lateral Entry Level Deputy-Sheriff on April 30, 1995 and was promoted to Deputy-Sheriff on May 5, 1996.
Deputy-Sheriff Knight was assigned to numerous bureaus within the Field Operations Division, including Patrol, Court Security, Civil, and Transportation. He often filled in as a Field Training Officer and Officer in Charge.
Deputy-Sheriff Knight was often praised for his strong verbal and written communication. Those skills served him well in writing new Civil Policy and Procedure and training other deputies on Ramey & Steagald Warrants.
Deputy-Sheriff Knight was someone you could rely on to get the job done right the first time. He was a valued and respected member of the Sheriff’s Office and will be greatly missed by his friends and coworkers.
