ROSS JESSOP is a native Montanan, born and raised in the Bitterroot Valley. As a child, Ross always knew that he wanted to be a cop when he grew up. Ross has been working in law enforcement for the last ten years. He spent his first three years as a police officer for the City of Hamilton. Ross was hired as a deputy for the Missoula County Sheriff’s Office in January 2012. Ross is currently assigned to the K9 Unit, and is also a member of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team (EOD/Bomb Squad). Ross’ work partner and current best friend is his K9, Loki; a Belgian Malinois from Hungary. Ross’ hobbies and interests include learning about ancient civilizations, creating digital artwork, biking, and playing in the dirt. Ross shoots traditional archery and especially loves bowhunting elk in the fall with the bow he built himself. Ross married Leah Pelkey on July 7, 2007. He is the father of three beautiful girls; Charlotte Tennyson, Harper Eliot, and Alice Marie; all named after authors and poets. These three girls are everything that Ross holds dear in life. |
