Pritchard joins Webster County Sheriff’s department as deputy
Former WC?police officer begins his duties March 20
Webster County’s newest deputy will be a former Webster City police officer.
Brandon Pritchard is scheduled to start work under his new badge on March 20, after approval by the Webster County Board of Supervisors Tuesday.
“He’s been over there for 6 to 8 years. He is field training officer certified,” Sheriff Jim Stubbs said. “That rate of pay that he starts at if you look at the contract is a certified officer’s starting pay.”
Pritchard starts at a rate of $46,915.70 per year. His pay will go up when everyone in the department gets a 2.5 percent raise in July, Stubbs said.
“Normally, I have new hires here, but Brandon is working,” Stubbs said, explaining why Pritchard wasn’t at the meeting. “I think he will be a good asset.”
