"I Probably Would Have Killed Him."

A deputy sheriff with twenty-three-years of service, Ronald Thurston, is out of a job after refusing to acknowledge that his take-down of a menace to society (22-year-old Isaiah Darcisse) was out of line with his Department’s policies and guidelines for the apprehension and subjugation of his arrestees. Darcisse was under investigation for assault when he contacted Thurston. 

On April 2020, during a criminal investigation, in a North Lauderdale Neighborhood, BSO Deputy Ronald Thruston contacted Isaiah Darcisse. Darcisse armed himself with a gun. As Deputy Thurston continued his investigation, Darcisse physically resisted Thurston, and a struggle ensued between the men; Deputy Thurston beat Darcisse to the draw. At that point, Darcisse complied with Thurston’s commands and placed his body on the ground. Back-up deputies arrived at the location, and they took Darcisse into custody.

22-year-old Isaiah Darcissé struggled with Deputy Thurston, while carrying a loaded gun in his pocket.

During the altercation between Thurston and Darcisse, Thurston puts his knee on Darcisse’s neck, making him uncomfortable. While Darcisse was handcuffed, Thurston used the side of his right to cuff him in his head.
Internal Affairs carried out an investigation into the incident and turned over their findings to the office of the State Attorney — they refused to file charges against Thurston.

Sheriff Greg Tony ended Deputy Thurston’s career based on his statement. Tony found disturbing comments Thurston made to his superiors at a counseling session. “When asked if he could do things differently in the future, Thurston said, ‘I probably would have killed him right there, and we wouldn’t be sitting here talking about it.'”

Broward Sherrif Officer Competes in Rodeo Exercise

Over his twenty-three-year career, Deputy Ronald Thurston has had seventeen complaints filed against him. Thurston was exonerated, or they deemed the charges unfounded eight times out of the seventeen complaints lodged against him. Thurston racked up thirteen days of suspension without pay. Thurston’s supporters claim he’s punished because he has raised concerns about a lack of diversity within the Department.
