It has been one of the greatest honors of my life to serve the citizens of Spotsylvania County and to work alongside the dedicated men and women of this office,” Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office announced. “As I look toward the future of our agency and our community, I am proud to endorse Lieutenant Colonel Delbert Myrick as the next Sheriff of Spotsylvania County in the 2028 election. His leadership, integrity, and unwavering commitment to public service make him the right choice to continue moving this office forward.”
“Lieutenant Colonel Myrick began his law enforcement career in 2002. Since that time, he has earned a Master’s Degree, graduated from the prestigious FBI National Academy, and completed the National Tactical Officers Command College.”
The sheriff noted that Myrick has risen through the ranks with distinction, achieving the highest rank under his command. His current term will conclude at the end of 2028, at which time a new sheriff will be elected.
