Handler – Detective John Squillini<\/p>\n
K9 Mourned By Rockland Sheriff’s Office<\/p>\n
It is with deep regret that the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office announces the passing of retired K9 Gibson, who was the devoted and loyal partner of Detective John Squillini. Faced with a serious medical condition, Detective Squillini had to make the very difficult decision that many K9 handlers have had to face, in the best interest of their partners. K9 Gibson, a yellow Labrador retriever, was a graduate of the Connecticut State Police and worked as an explosives detector canine for eight years and retired from service in 2016. The team of Det. Squillini and K9 Gibson conducted numerous explosive detection searches to include schools, government offices, businesses, Homeland Security sweeps, and searches in support of the U.S. Secret Service for Presidential visits to the County and outside counties. K9 Gibson was a loyal, trusted partner and friend and will not only be missed by Det. Squillini but by all the members of the Squillini family and fellow officers at the department.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
