Rank-and-file Flagler County Sheriff’s deputies don’t make that much money: they start in the low 30s, and take time to accumulate the sort of raises that might get them closer to a decent wage.
That doesn’t mean they can be bought. Ricardo Feo Sr., a 58-year-old resident of Princess Geraldine Place in Palm Coast, found that out when he ran into deputy Joseph Barile Friday afternoon (July 18), when a traffic stop turned into a DUI arrest, and a case of attempting to bribe an officer.
