Welcomes New Staff Sergeant by Andrea Adair A new face bas joined the staff of the Newcastle detachment detachment of the Ontario Provincial Provincial Police. Ernie Bond took over the duties of staff sergeant on January 3, bringing with him 28 years of experience with the police force. He joined the force in 1961 because he always wanted to be a police officer and he liked working with people. His duties as sergeant put him in charge of roughly 18 police officers, three radio operators, a stenographer, and a caretaker. The job he performs is of an administrative nature, he notes, making him responsible responsible for the overall day-to-day operations of the detachment. But being on the administrative administrative side of the law doesn't stop him from being involved in investigations or assisting in traffic enforcement. enforcement. He says that with the limited mnumber of staff at the headquarters in Newcastle, Newcastle, "everyone has to work." "We're still all police officers. officers. It's busy enough that it keeps everyone going," he saic Newcastle is one of nine detachments in this district and is responsible for com- ugn w . and Number Two Highway from Hwy. 115 to Durham/ Hope Township line. While he has been enjoying enjoying his new post, he admits that it is of a little slower pace than what he has been accustomed to for the greater greater part of his career. For 18 years, he has worked in some area of investigations investigations on cases ranging ranging from break-ins to organized organized crime. He mentioned one of the interesting cases he worked on not long after he went into investigations. It involved a female socialite. socialite. he said, who was abducted abducted and taken to the Muskokas. Seven people, one a former former boyfriend of the woman, were eventually convicted with the kidnapping but first had demanded $200,000 in ransom. Sgt.

For his role in the incident, incident, he later found himself on the pages of an American detective magazine. A clipping clipping from that publication is still in his possession today. He said he considers himself himself quite fortunate to have been part of investigations for as long as he was. Many people, he said, aspire to be in that line of work but, he added, there isn't enough room for everyone. Moreover, Moreover, there are other areas of policing, such as the Traffic Act, that have to be enforced. enforced. The period of his career that he especially enjoyed was the period prior to his transfer to Newcastle. For four years he worked in the Intelligence Branch of investigations. This included the combined forces of the RCMP. Metro Toronto and the OPP in dealing with organized organized crime. Working on organized crime or any other area of investigations, he said, "is something not everyone gets the chance to do," but it is something many officers would like to do. Part of the attraction towards towards this branch of police investigation lies in the fact that the work keeps the officer officer thinking all the time. Looking track on the time he has spent with the police force, he remarks that his career thus far has been satisfying. satisfying. "I'm pleased with the way it has gone," he added. He is also pleased with his first five months spent in Newcastle. "I've really enjoyed it. The people are an excellent bunch to work with and I think they do a very good job," the sergeant said.
