Bio: Master Deputy Sheriff Joseph “Shane” Robbins was a 15-year veteran of the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, beginning his career in February of 1998. He was a Master Deputy Sheriff and has served in various parts of the county in Patrol, as a Special Victims Unit detective, and as a Homicide detective. His most recent assignment was as a patrol deputy in the Northeast District. Deputy Robbins was married to his wife Alisa, and they have five children.
Master Deputy Robbins has received numerous platoon recognitions, accomplishment reports, bureau, division, department, and Sheriff’s commendations for his public service, compassion, generosity, and outstanding law enforcement and investigative work. He has received 14 commendations and 187 recognitions and accomplishment reports.
In May 1999, Shane received the PCSO Medal of Valor, that reads in part: “In July 1998, Deputies Shane Robbins and Ron Carpenter responded to a residence in Mulberry in reference to a report of domestic violence. Once inside the home, the deputies were confronted by a suspect holding a rifle, who barricaded himself inside a bedroom and refused to surrender. The situation was further complicated by the fact that an elderly woman was in the next bedroom. The woman was bedridden and unable to escape the danger. Deputies Robbins and Carpenter formulated a rescue plan to remove the woman from the residence. This could not be done without placing themselves at risk. Working as a team, Deputies Robbins and Carpenter successfully extracted the elderly woman, while maintaining containment of the suspect. Deputies Robbins and Carpenter remained in the house with the suspect until relieved by members of the SWAT team. In recognition of their actions and courage in the face of an armed suspect, these deputies are hereby awarded the Medal of Valor.”
According to friends and colleagues, Master Deputy Shane Robbins loved his job – he loved serving the community. From changing the flat tires of a stranded motorist and apprehending suspects, to collecting Christmas gifts for children, and providing critical backup during officer-involved shootings, Shane served his community with dedication and pride. His care and concern for others was as much a part of his daily duties as enforcing the law. |
