Did you know Pasco County’s first female police officer served right here at the New Port Richey Police Department?

Cynthis "Cindy" Kuhn joined NPRPD in 1973 and served until 1976. During her time with the department, she worked as a patrol officer, detective, and school resource officer.

Cindy's service marked an important moment for women in local law enforcement and remains a notable part of NPRPD’s history!

Today, our hearts are heavy as we learn of the tragic loss of a Pasco Sheriff’s Office deputy.

The men and women who serve in law enforcement carry tremendous responsibilities and face difficult circumstances that most people will never see. Behind every badge is a person, a family, and a community that cares about them.

We extend our deepest condolences to the deputy’s family, friends, fellow deputies, and everyone at the Pasco Sheriff’s Office. We stand with our law enforcement family during this incredibly difficult time.

Pasco Sheriff’s Office shares with profound sadness that a PSO Deputy took their own life this morning in the Charles Bo Harrison Wy. area of Land O’ Lakes.

On Aug. 19, around 8 a.m., the Deputy was found deceased inside PSO’s construction facility with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
