Pierce County Sheriff's Office major charged in connection with DUI, crash involving family
Pierce County Sheriff’s Office (PCSO) Maj. Chadwick Dickerson was charged in connection with driving under the influence and vehicular assault, according to charging documents with the Pierce County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.
Dickerson’s charges follow his arrest after a crash near Graham in July that involved a family, including a pregnant woman who was driving.
A 72-hour hold for Dickerson to not contact witnesses or victims previously expired. However, the prosecuting attorney’s office had requested that the sheriff order the witnesses who work with PCSO not to speak with Dickerson, to preserve the integrity of the investigation.
