Case Report: Macedon Police Department

Macedon Police Department During my senior year in high school, through my EMCC (Eastern Monroe Career Center) Boces program, my criminal justice teacher told our class we were going to intern 10-12 weeks somewhere in the field that we were interested in. I was accepted to intern with the Macedon Police Department. I went to my internship Monday through Friday from 8am until 10:30 am. My main supervisor was Earl Lergner. He is a police officer that is in charge of the evidence chamber. He has to take evidence from the lockers and place it into the evidence chamber and log the information. When Officer Lergner was training I would intern with the other officers. I interned with Officer O’Konsky, Officer Demchuck, and Officer Damato. I never
At first Chief didn’t allow me to ride along with Officer Damato, he was a new officer and the chief wanted to make sure I was safe. I rode along with Officer O’Konsky about two weeks out of the ten weeks I interned. I rode with Officer Demchuck two times and Officer Damato once. I wasn’t allowed to ride with Officer Damato after that because he had gone 80 around a turn. The chief had gotten a little upset about that. Officer O’Konsky and Officer Damato usually work the night shift which goes from midnight until 8 am. Officer Demchuck would work from 4pm until midnight. I also got to meet Officer Hall, Officer Haines, Officer Powell, and Sergeant Cooman, and Sheriff Danny. I also met the Civilian Clerk of the department Tyler Robinson. I met many other officers and K-9 officers from other police departments like Newark, Syracuse, Palmyra, Gananda, and the Sheriff’s office. During my time at the police department, I visited the Macedon Town Hall
The judge will then hear the charges that the suspect has, then will sentence the suspect according to the charges. The names of the two judges at the Town Hall are Tom Crowley and Ron Reinstein. Their Clerks are Judy Oaks and Sue Gorman. The clerks are in charge of getting the right files out, prepare the judge, administers oaths to witnesses and interpreters, taking care of records and exhibits, keeping minutes of proceedings, preparing criminal judgments and verdict forms, and generally helping the judge keep the trial running smoothly. Without the clerk, the trial may result in the wrong verdict because with no one to help organize the papers and everything else that needs to be used during the trial, there may be some miscommunication and it could turn into a big mix up. So having a clerk and many other people involved in a trial can be very helpful. I was assigned to ride with Officer Lergner. He has been with Macedon Police Department for over 6 years. He became full time in 2008. In 2003 Earl obtained his bachelor’s degree for criminal justice from Keuka College. He has gone through photography training, fingerprint training, police crime scene and evidence specialist Training. I have had the chance to learn how to use equipment in the patrol car. Earl has also let me scan licenses and insurance papers into the computer to do the
