Law enforcement officials and family recently celebrated the swearing-in ceremonies for new Public Services Director Dana Martin and Chief Marshal Jamie Gianfala. Superior Court Judge Tony Baker swore in both leaders at the Cherokee County Justice Center.

Martin, who served the Cherokee Sheriff’s Office for 23 years, said she appreciates the educational opportunities afforded to her by former Sheriff Roger Garrison and Sheriff Frank Reynolds. Martin plans to take that knowledge and her experience and use it to lead the Public Services Agency.

Gianfala joined the Sheriff’s Office in 1993, serving in many capacities including Uniform Patrol, Cherokee Multi-Agency Narcotics Squad, Traffic Unit, and Criminal Investigations. Many in attendance were fellow law enforcement officers with whom Gianfala had worked over the years. He shared his gratitude for the support of family, coworkers, and friends.
