MOCO Constable Hayden Receives Diamond Hero Leadership Award
On Tuesday, 7/19/2022, Constable Hayden was awarded the “Diamond Hero Leadership Award” for his leadership and commitment to DWI enforcement. This was one of four leadership awards given at MADD’s 2022 Southeast Texas Take the Wheel” Law Enforcement Recognition Luncheon, held at The Ballroom at Tanglewood in Houston, TX.
But, that’s not all; Constable Hayden was also awarded the “Policy Setter Award” for his commitment to the community through DWI policy!
One of Constable Hayden’s points of focus when elected and still today was to combat driving while intoxicated drivers on the streets of East Montgomery County; to do this he has built an amazing, specialized team of Deputies who also received well-deserved awards during the luncheon. Sgt. Potter, leader of the DWI Team, received the “Enforcement Award” for his efforts in arresting 120 intoxicated drivers in 2021 along with Dep. Lewis and Dep. Castillo. Sgt. Potter, Dep. Esteves and Dep. Lewis all received the “Madd Hero Award” for the commitment and diligence in DWI arrests. Overall, Constable Hayden and the DWI Team received eight incredible awards!
This MADD “Take The Wheel” luncheon is held yearly. It recognizes not only law enforcement efforts from across the region combatting driving while enforcement offenses, but also the prosecutors, judges and community partners that also help keep the roadways safe.
