The Family of Deputy Isaiah Cordero, age 32, and the Riverside Sheriff’s Department, have invited the PGR to honor their Hero with a Flag Line as he arrives at the church for services. We are honored to do so.
Deputy Isaiah Cordero, 32, was shot and killed Thursday Dec 29, 2022, in the line of duty during a traffic stop. He had pulled over a pickup truck just before 2 p.m. in Jurupa Valley. As he approached the vehicle, the driver pulled a gun and shot him.
Deputy Cordero was a motorcycle officer assigned to Jurupa Valley, a city that contracts with the Riverside County Sheriff's Department for policing services. He joined the 4,000-member strong department as a corrections deputy, worked in local jails, became a sworn deputy in 2018 and completed motor school to become a motorcycle deputy in September of 2022.
Sheriff Chad Bianco said "He was naturally drawn to law enforcement and certainly embodied our motto of service above self," Sheriff Bianco said. "He was a jokester around the station and all of our deputies considered him their little brother."
Deputy Cordero is survived by his mother and father and many other family members, both blood and blue, and many friends. He has left a memorable legacy and will never be forgotten.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this American Hero.
