The Orange County Sheriff’s Office has introduced its newest K9 officer, Athena, to the ranks this week. Athena and her handler, Investigator Marcus Hanson, recently completed their training and earned official certification through the National Narcotic Detector Dog Association.
“This is an exciting time for the Orange County Sheriff’s Office and the communities we serve,” said Sheriff Bobby Smith. “I am proud to welcome K9 Officer Athena to the team and look forward to her disrupting drug trafficking networks and removing dangerous substances from our communities. K9 Officer Athena and Investigator Hanson will be a strong deterrent to criminal activity.”
