These new deputies will be assigned to various jobs. Some will work at Caddo Correctional Center, some will go on patrol while others will serve in administrative capacities.
Caddo Sheriff Steve Prator says his office started off this year 90 deputies short and they are working to add 30 more deputies in the next few months.
