Off-duty crash in Okeechobee County claims life of Martin County deputy
The Martin County Sheriff's Office is deeply saddened by the passing of Deputy Shawn Green, a dedicated officer who had served with the agency for 25 years. Deputy Green, who tragically lost his life in a car accident in Okeechobee County, had worked in various roles within the agency, such as road patrol, courthouse security, and the corrections department. He was also a proud member of the Martin County Sheriff's Honor Guard. Deputy Green came from a family deeply rooted in law enforcement, with his father being a retired detective from the agency and two sisters and his brother-in-law currently serving with the MCSO. Deputy Green is remembered as a loyal friend and respected colleague; he leaves behind a young daughter, loving siblings, devoted parents, and a large extended family who cherished him dearly. Please keep Deputy Green's family, friends, and colleagues in your thoughts and prayers as they mourn this profound loss. Additionally, it was reported by WPTV in 2020 that Deputy Green had survived a serious accident while rendering assistance at the scene of a rollover accident on State Road 714.
