Four St. Bernard Parish Sheriff's Office deputies, all of whom are working
in the Corrections Division, graduated April 3 from the Peace Officers
Standards and Training, or P.O.S.T., basic police academy at the Slidell
Regional Police Academy, with a ceremony held at Slidell City Auditorium.

Graduating from St. Bernard were Sheriff's Deputies Brian Allnet, Richard
Chauppetta III, Robert Maloz and Kenneth Zulli Jr.

Sheriff James Pohlmann, Col. David Mowers, head of the Corrections Division
and Maj. David DiMaggio, director of training, all attended the ceremony to
represent the Sheriff's Office and the sheriff gave the four their
graduation certificates.

A fifth deputy, Josh English, also of the Corrections Division, completed a
refresher course at the academy but wasn't present at the graduation.

The academy includes about 400 hours of training over 13 weeks in basic
police work including firearms use, criminal investigation, patrol
procedure, writing reports, driving training, physical fitness and other
areas of police work.

The academy class, besides St. Bernard officers, included ones from the
police departments of the cities of Slidell, Covington, Mandeville, Hammond,
Sun, and Bogalusa, and the Tangipahoa and St. Helena sheriff's offices.
