🔬✨ Happy National Forensic Science Week! ✨🔬
This week, our talented Forensics Team was out in the community inspiring the next generation of scientists and investigators. 🧪👩🔬👨🔬 They visited three local schools to share what it’s like to turn curiosity into a career and how their work helps keep Santa Barbara County safe.
💡 From fingerprints to DNA, our forensic experts show students that science can solve mysteries and change lives.

🚫📞 Don’t Fall for the Scam! 🚨
Scammers are calling community members demanding payment for “fines”, unpaid bills or to clear warrants. These calls are FAKE. The Sheriff’s Office will never ask for gift cards, wire transfers, or payments over the phone.
👉 If you get a suspicious call:
✔️ Hang up immediately
✔️ Don’t send money or give personal info
✔️ Call us directly at (805) 683-2724 to verify
Protect yourself & your loved ones. Share this with family, friends, and neighbors—especially seniors. 💙👵👴
