Tanya Long, Jerry Boyce and
Cathy Meggs were all police officers before becoming probation and parole officers in
Pasquotank County. Long (above) said the skills she learned as a police officer
have helped her in her job as a probation officer. |

Jerry Boyce heads up the
school partnership program in Pasquotank County. Boyce has an office in the high school
and at Elizabeth State University and said, through the program, he is now able to see the
offenders six times a month every Wednesday and twice at home. Before, he used to
only see an offender once a month. |

Cathy Meggs is an intensive
officer and said for a small community, Pasquotank County has a lot more crime than people
realize. "We have a lot of spill over drug problems from the Virginia area," she
said. Meggs majored in law enforcement in college and said she has always been fascinated
by crime. "I love a good crime drama like NYPD Blue," she said. |
