Broward Sheriff Al Lamberti will promote 62 employees Monday during the agency’s largest promotions ceremony ever. There will be 21 people promoted to the rank of sergeant and 22 promoted to lieutenant in the departments of law enforcement and detention, and there will be 10 new Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue driver engineers. Also in fire rescue, there will be four new captains and one new division chief/fire marshal. In the department of law enforcement, two people will promote to the rank of captain, one to district chief and one to major. In addition, 21 fire rescue reserves will be sworn in during the ceremony. “These well-deserved promotions are a good sign. It means that we have turned a corner and are moving forward as an agency,” Sheriff Al Lamberti said. Among the candidates for promotion is Sgt. Andrea Levine, who is following in the footsteps of her father, a BSO retiree who serves in the agency’s reserve unit, and her brother, a captain at Miramar Police Department. Lt. Rafael Omana and Sgt. Joseph Lungha both proudly serve in the United States Marine Corps. Fire Rescue Capt. Cindie Schooner-Ball was one of the first women hired as a firefighter and EMT in Broward County, and Sgt. Jeremy Hansen works closely with the Police Athletic League to improve children’s physical, social and emotional well-being. .
