Couple to use expertise in police work out West: "Capt. William Rhoads worked in almost every facet of the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office -- as a corrections officer, in court security, as a civil process server, and as a patrol deputy -- before becoming part of the command staff.

Deborah Rhoads, his wife and the executive assistant to the sheriff, has a range of roles herself: hostage, hostage-taker, victim and cop-killer -- all in the interests of training, of course.
