ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Selected as the The 2016 Space Coast Daily Person of The Year, Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey’s vision, leadership and courage have made Brevard County citizens proud to call the Space Coast of Florida home. 

Sheriff Wayne Ivey has been a law enforcement officer for over three decades. Sheriff Ivey is a graduate of the FBI National Academy and has a Bachelor’s Degree from Daytona State College in Management and Supervision. Sheriff Ivey’s background in law enforcement is inclusive of Management, Criminal Investigations, Narcotics, Patrol Services, Public Integrity Investigations, and Corrections.

Prior to being elected in 2012, Sheriff Ivey served the citizens of the State of Florida as a Resident Agent in Charge for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. As a member of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Sheriff Ivey developed and created the country’s first ever statewide Task Force on Identity Theft.

That same year the Task Force was named one of the top five most innovative programs in the country by the International Association of Chiefs of Police and investigated approximately 44 million dollars in fraud cases. Additionally, as a member of FDLE, Sheriff Ivey created the Child Abduction Response Team (C.A.R.T) that re-defined the way Child Abduction cases are conducted throughout the country today.

The program was later selected as the most innovative program in the country by the International Association of Chiefs of Police and is now used as a nationwide model in the response and investigation of child abductions.

Following a four year drop in Brevard County’s reported crime rate, Sheriff Ivey was Re-elected in 2016. His energy and endurance was impressive to watch. He made multiple public appearances almost daily in supporting many worthy causes and promoting the wellbeing of every man, woman, child and animal in his care.

Sheriff Ivey started 2016 by producing a viral video which educated and reassured a fearful nation after the brutal terrorist attacks in France and then in San Bernardino, California where 14 people were killed and 21 others injured. After posting this video, which featured a powerful and popular message, it immediately went viral with more than 8 million views.

Sheriff Ivey then put Brevard County in the national spotlight as he appeared on Fox News Channel’s Fox & Friends with Brian Kilmeade to discuss his message. Sheriff Ivey also turned Brevard County into a “No Kill Community” after the Sheriff’s office assumed responsibility for Brevard County Animal Services on October 1, 2014. The average live release rate for Brevard County Animal Services was 55 percent over the previous five years.

After just two years, Sheriff Ivey announced that Brevard County Animal Services has officially reached the status as a “No Kill Community.” To help ensure America would be “Great Again”, Sheriff Ivey served served as the moderator during an important law enforcement roundtable with then Presidential Candidate Donald Trump during Trump’s visit to St. Johns County for a rally in St. Augustine in October.

Sheriff Ivey has testified before the United States Congress on law enforcement related matters and has extensive experience in the area of Public Integrity Investigations. Sheriff Ivey was honored as the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s Special Agent of the Year (1996) and was also recognized by the Commissioner of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement for his Outstanding Contributions to Criminal Justice. In August of 2011 Sheriff Ivey was honored by the National Organization of Victims Advocacy for his work at the national level as an advocate of victim’s rights and protection.

Sheriff Ivey speaks regularly on topics such as Identity Theft, Crime in America, Human Trafficking, Domestic Violence, and Self Defense through Mental Preparedness. Sheriff Ivey firmly believes that Crime Prevention and Education are vital to reduce our crime rate and protect our community.
