“Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of a Caldwell County Constable’s Deputy,” the post read.

Community asked to support deputy’s family

“Please keep this Deputy’s family, loved ones, and our fellow deputies in your prayers as they navigate this heartbreaking loss.”
The message reflects the close-knit nature of law enforcement communities, where the loss of one officer is often felt deeply by colleagues who serve side by side daily.
Details surrounding death not yet released

Law enforcement deaths leave lasting impact
The death of a deputy — whether in the line of duty or not — often sends ripples far beyond the agency itself. Constables and their deputies play a vital role in serving warrants, providing court security, and assisting communities across Texas counties, often working behind the scenes but facing significant risks.
Colleagues say such losses underscore the emotional and physical toll carried by those in law enforcement and the families who support them.
Community response grows online
Following the post, residents and fellow officers from surrounding counties flooded the comments with messages of sympathy, prayers, and gratitude for the deputy’s service.
