Stay Out of Drug Areas Declaration of Sergeant Jeff Hendrickson November 2015 I, Jeff Hendrickson, certify or declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of Washington that the following is true and correct: 1. I am a Sergeant with the Everett Police Department. My current assignment is Sergeant of the Anti-Crime Team (ACT). ACT focuses on problem locations in the city with the goal of reducing crime, including narcotics related crimes, proactively. 2. I have been a commissioned Police Officer since October 1997. In my time with the Everett Police Department I have been involved in uniform and undercover proactive narcotics investigations. I have worked in Patrol and was an officer in ACT when it was established for approximately four years. I have been a Master Police Officer responsible for training new officers and was promoted to Sergeant in August of 2013. I have supervised the Anti-Crime Team for the past 2 years. 3. I have made or been involved in hundreds of narcotics arrests in the City of Everett, including Stay Out of Drug Areas ("SODA") Order violations. have attended numerous hours of training related to narcotics investigations. 4. While preparing this document I consulted with Officer A Kravchun, Ofc 0 Kravchun and Ofc J Taylor who are currently assigned to ACT. I know they have extensive knowledge of narcotics activity throughout the city. 5. The purpose of this declaration is to provide information on active SODA areas and, in my opinion, based on my training and experience, they should remain SODA areas. 6. The area of North Broadway Avenue 700 through 1000 block and two blocks east and west is a current SODA area and I believe should remain so for at least the next two years. This area includes Everett Community College which has grown in size over the last two years. The student population is a potential customer source for drug dealers. Page 1 of 4
