The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission (FWC) honored Assistant State Attorney Ryan Butler of
Vero Beach as its prosecutor of the year during Wednesday’s
meeting.
The FWC, meeting in a two-day session at
Melbourne, lauded Butler for his 12 years of diligence and
commitment in prosecuting FWC cases.
Col. Julie Jones, FWC’s director of law
enforcement, said "He works with the FWC officers on these cases
from start to finish. This includes going on details with the
officers on both land and on sea, going out to crime scenes and
taking calls from officers in the middle of the night. One of
these details included swimming after a defendant who was
illegally spearing lobster.”
Ryan Butler has maintained his state
certification as a law enforcement officer, maintained his
commitment to the officers at FWC and maintained his commitment
to protecting Florida’s natural resources.
"He is an inspiration to FWC’s officers and a
fundamental partner for FWC,” Jones said. |
