Jesse loves to go fishing, hunting, side by side riding, spending time with his family during his spare time. Jesse has a passion to make Eureka County the safest place to live, work, play and raise our families.
Tyler Thomas came to the Eureka County Sheriff's Office in 2019, after working almost 8 years at the Carlin Police Department.
Tyler's ambition to become a public servant started at a very young age, in a very unorthodox way. Tyler was riding his bike in the 5th grade, when he was hit by a patrol car. His interactions with the Police Officers at that scene made him want to become a Police Officer. Tyler, his wife and their daughter immediately invested themselves in our community. Their family has been a great addition to the Eureka community.
Tyler loves to go camping, hunting and spending time with his family during his spare time.
