Palatka, Florida’s Clifford Tennant dies; Matthew Dennis arrested
Clifford Tennant of Palatka, Putnam County, Florida, United States has died. He was 47.
Palatka is the county seat of Putnam County. The city is around 28.1 miles away from Saint Augustine, St. Johns County, Florida.
Clifford Tennant
The Putnam County Sheriff’s Office recently confirmed the arrest of a suspect in connection with the fatal shooting of a local resident earlier this week. Matthew Michael Dennis, 28, of St. Johns County has been charged with first-degree murder for the death of Tennant.
On the evening of February 24, 2026, Tennant was found dead. Deputies were dispatched to a rural area near Carole Road, Alabama Avenue and Roddy Road in Palatka following a 911 call.
The caller reported hearing multiple gunshots and subsequently discovered Tennant bleeding on a wooded trail. Upon arrival, law enforcement officers confirmed that the victim was deceased at the scene.

Matthew Dennis
Detectives with the PCSO immediately launched a homicide investigation, interviewing neighbors and potential witnesses while processing physical evidence from the wooded area. The detectives worked in tandem with the State Attorney’s Office for Florida’s 7th Circuit to present their findings to a judge and by the end of the week, authorities successfully obtained an arrest warrant for Dennis.
On March 1, 2026, the PCSO coordinated with the St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office to locate the suspect. Given the nature of the charges, the St. Johns County Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team was utilized to execute the warrant.
Dennis was taken into custody without incident. He was transported to the St. Johns County Jail in St. Augustine.
Gator DeLoach
Homer “Gator” DeLoach III has been the sheriff of Putnam County since January 2017. He stated, “I want to commend everyone who worked on this case and the teamwork with the State Attorney’s Office and St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office in allowing us to quickly apprehend Matthew Dennis.”
According to DeLoach, there are several moving parts behind the scenes that the public may not be aware of. He said, “At the end of the day, our job is to see that the guilty party is punished and the victim’s family can have closure.”

Just an astoundingly beautiful night down here on the gulf coast of Florida. Walked the dog in shorts and a T-shirt in a strong breeze. Temperature must be about 25°C (70°F). Can't capture it in photos, but the moonlight through palm leaves makes up for the last month of unseasonably cold (in the 10°C, 50°F range) for which we Floridians are not well equipped.

Jacksonville, Florida officer Christian Madsen arrested in $14,000 overtime fraud
Thomas Kevin “T.K.” Waters, 55, has been serving as the seventh sheriff of Jacksonville, Florida, United States. Christian R. Madsen, 31, an 11-year veteran with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, and his superior Jaime Lynne Eason, 49, were reportedly involved in a romantic relationship, a direct violation of the department’s nepotism and conflict-of-interest policies.
The JSO is grappling with a significant internal investigation involving felony charges against one of its own and the subsequent disciplinary action against a high-ranking official. On February 26, 2026, Waters announced the arrest of Madsen, who is accused of orchestrating a massive overtime fraud scheme over a three-month period.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=941441891734669&set=pb.100076066008879.-2207520000&type=3
Christian Madsen
From December 1, 2025 to February 7, 2026, Madsen submitted claims for compensation for overtime traffic assignments he allegedly worked. On February 12, 2026, the Integrity Unit of the JSO received information that he intentionally submitted falsified overtime claims and received compensation for traffic enforcement work he did not perform.
Madsen faces three felony counts for allegedly falsifying more than 200 hours of overtime. Investigators claim these fraudulent entries allowed him to collect over $14,000 in unearned pay. Waters remained firm on the department’s stance regarding integrity, stating, “As we have said many times before, no one is above the law.”
The investigation revealed a deeply personal layer to the misconduct. Waters confirmed that during the hours Madsen was allegedly clocking in for work, he was actually visiting Eason’s residence.
On February 25, 2026, Madsen was arrested, making him the second JSO officer arrested by the department itself since the start of 2026. An additional four employees of the department have been arrested by outside agencies this year, bringing the total number of department-affiliated arrests this year to six.
Jaime Eason
The fallout has significantly impacted the career of Eason, who held the distinction of being the department’s first woman chief of patrol. While Waters noted there is currently no evidence that Eason was aware Madsen was clocking hours during their time together, the breach of policy led to a “long conversation” in the Sheriff’s office.
Following this, Eason resigned her appointment as Chief and has been officially demoted. An administrative process remains in place to handle the remaining internal details.
Waters thanked the investigators who brought the fraud to light, vowing to remain transparent with the public whenever an employee threatens the agency’s foundational trust. He emphasized that the department must now “move on and continue with the business of the sheriff’s office.”

My favorite bit was where they just gave up on the street names and went with:
Upper 8th Ave S
Lower 8th Ave S
Flat as the terrain there is, it should have been:
Northern 8th Ave S
Southern 8th Ave S
But I guess that would have been too much even for #Florida people to put up with :D
