  PA State Constable

  I was elected in 2021 to the Office of PA State Constable for the term of 2022 - 2028.This first year has so far been a training year. I completed the Constable Basic Course provided by PA-PCCD to comply with PA court requirements and completed the Traffic Incident Management training.What is a PA State Constable?Pennsylvania State Constables were founded in the year 1664. Constables are sworn law enforcement officers elected by voters in their district, township, or borough for a term of 6 years and can arrest for felonies or breaches of the peace committed in view, execute warrants statewide, and perform a host of duties such as the transport of criminal defendants, impoundment of loose livestock, or serve as coroner when called by their County District Attorney due to absence of the elected Coroner. A primary duty of Constables is to maintain order and protect the rights of voters at their voting station on election day.Constables are not taxpayer funded and assume the cost of yearly training, police vehicle and maintenance, and personal protective equipment needs. *Philadelphia does not have elected PA State Constables though PA State Constables serve in Philadelphia executing warrants, maintaining order in emergencies, and providing assistance to other law enforcement agencies.
