RODNEY THOMAS Lieutenant Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office District-II
Lieutenant Thomas began his law enforcement career in 1989 as a “reserve” police officer with the City of Palm Beach Gardens (FL). In 1990, he was hired as a full-time police officer by the Town of Mangonia Park, where he was eventually promoted to Sergeant, then as Chief of Police in 2003.
In February of 2007, the Town of Mangonia Park contracted with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office for law enforcement services. At the unanimous request of the Town Council, Rodney Thomas was given the rank of Lieutenant with the PBSO and assigned to our town as the District-II Commander.
Lt. Thomas is a 1985 graduate of the former North Shore High School in West Palm Beach (FL). He has an Associate of Science degree in Paralegal/Legal Secretary Studies from Palm Beach Community College in Lake Worth (FL), and a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice from Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton (FL). Rodney is currently enrolled in the Masters Program at Barry University. Lt. Thomas is presently married and the proud father of six children.
“It is my opinion, and personal creed, that everyone is special”, claims Lt. Thomas. “All citizens, including those we suspect of committing a crime, should be treated with the respect they deserve and expect from their law enforcement community”.
