Jerome Perez Announces He Is Running For Drew County Sheriff
October 31st, 2025 by
Drew County is a place where I am deeply committed to fostering safety and community well-being. With a diverse range of experience in law enforcement and community service, I have established a strong foundation for effectively leading the sheriff’s office. My professional history includes roles as a Team Assistant at the Dermott Juvenile Facility, a Mental Health Technician at the Center for Youth and Families, and a Patrol Officer/School Resource Officer for the Monticello school district and a juvenile probation officer for the 10th district. I also served as Chief Deputy in the Drew County Sheriff’s Department. I held positions as a Correctional Officer and Sergeant with the Arkansas Department of Corrections, ultimately becoming the EPC Lieutenant as an Emergency Preparedness Coordinator.
