BELLEVILLE – Deputy David Frisse has retired from the St. Clair County Sheriff’s Department in Belleville after 25 years of service, the department announced.
Frisse began his career with the department as a patrol deputy on April 1, 2001, after previously serving as a police officer in Caseyville, East St. Louis, Shiloh and Alorton.
After joining the St. Clair County Sheriff’s Department, Frisse was assigned to the patrol division, where he remained for most of his career. He later served as an investigator with the Metro East Auto Theft Task Force before the unit was suspended, the department said.
Frisse then returned to the patrol division and resumed his previous assignment.
The department said Frisse earned numerous awards and accolades for his performance during his years of service.
“Although Deputy Frisse never tested to become a supervisor or had a desire to hold this position, he has remained a very effective leader in our department, training countless officers by example of his work ethic and professional attitude,” the St. Clair County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement.
The department congratulated Frisse on his retirement.
