Organizations Filed Purposes:
THE ARIZONA LAW ENFORCEMENT AIR SUPPORT SUPPORTS CCSO WITH NON-LAW-ENFORCEMENT DUTIES, WHILE ASSISTING WITH CRIME DETERRENCE.
TO ASSIST THE COCHISE COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE WITH NON-LAW-ENFORCEMENT DUTIES
THE ARIZONA LAW ENFORCEMENT AIR SUPPORT ASSISTS THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE OF COCHISE COUNTY, ARIZONA AS THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE HAS LIMITED RESOURCES. THE REVENUE PROVIDED FROM THE TAX BASE SIMPLY DOES NOT PERMIT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO PATROL THE LAND WITHIN ITS RESPONSIBILITY ON AN EFFECTIVE BASIS. ITS RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDE LAND WHICH BORDERS THE MEXICAN BORDER AND IS HEAVILY USED FOR DRUG TRAFFICKING. THE RANCHERS, FARMERS, AND OTHER CITIZENS OF COCHISE COUNTY ARE CONSTANTLY IN DANGER DUE TO THIS SITUATION, AND RECONGNIZE THAT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE DOES NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO GET THE JOB DONE. FOR THIS REASON, THE ARIZONA LAW ENFORCEMENT AIR SUPPORT PROVIDES SUPPORT TO THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE. ARIZONA LAW ENFORCEMENT AIR SUPPORT PURCHASED A HELICOPTER FOR USE BY THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE, HOWEVER IN 2020, THIS ASSET WAS SOLD AND THE PROCEEDS WERE RETURNED TO THE ORIGINAL DONOR AS OUTLINED IN THE ORIGINAL DONATION LETTER. THIS IS ONLY AN INTERIM CHANGE, AS AZLEAS IS SCHEDULED TO RECEIVE A 2021 DONATION OF AN UPGRADED HELICOPTER.
