Rios left his position with the Maverick County Sheriff's Department a few weeks ago where he ran the detention center for a few years. 

Bexar County Sheriff Department issues out this statement in the recent hiring. 

“Deputy Chief Jaime Rios was appointed by Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar as an addition to Bexar County Sheriff’s Office Command Staff and will serve as Deputy Chief in Detention Administration, alongside Jail Administrator Deputy Chief Avery Walker and Deputy Chief Joel Janssen. Deputy Chief Rios is a licensed jail administrator and is a 33-year veteran of law enforcement, with 20 years working in federal law enforcement, to include serving two tours in Iraq. Most recently, Chief Jaime Rios successfully served as the Jail Administrator for the Maverick County Sheriff’s Office for over 4 year.”

Rios will now be working in a detention facility with over 4,000 inmates, as compared to the 250 housed at the Maverick County Detention Center.

Back on October 7 Maverick County Sheriff Tom Schmerber informed the community of Rios's departure.

Sheriff Schmerber thanked Rios for his hard work and dedication to assure that the jail facility was running smoothly and in compliance to standards required by Federal and State guidelines.
