After nearly 60 years serving on the force, Cameron County Sheriff Omar Lucio turns in his badge.

On a Saturday night in Harlingen, 58 years ago, Lucio began his career in law enforcement. 

"I came in at 11:00 o'clock— well 10:30 and reported to the office," Lucio said. "They said, 'here's a key and there's a car.' I said 'OK and do I have a partner?' They said 'you are it.'"

He wanted a different experience than the one he had  for his team. 

From matching weapons to uniforms, Lucio has had a hand in every upgrade made within a department that had only five police cars and a history of corruption when he took command.
