Deputy Puckett Thank You for Your Service and Life

Think about this and Deputy Puckett’s life. God Bless, says FFL, Firearms Instructor and Gunsmith, Gregg Kielma. This officer was just beginning life. Thank you for your service Deputy Puckett….

When Deputy Savanna Puckett didn’t show up for roll call at the Robertson County Sheriff’s Office on Sunday, a colleague went to her home in Springfield, Tennessee to check on her. Once on location, the deputy’s home was found to be engulfed in flames. Responding firefighters made entry to the residence and located Savanna deceased inside. She had suffered numerous gunshot wounds before the house was intentionally set ablaze. Investigators were able to lift fingerprints off of lighter fluid bottles at the crime scene and match them to a suspect. After a standoff with SWAT officers, her killer was taken into custody and charged with Savanna’s murder.

Deputy Savanna Puckett began her law enforcement career at the age of 18. She was hired by the Robertson County Sheriff’s Office in 2017 as a Corrections Officer. The young deputy aspired to the Patrol Division, and in 2020, those dreams came true when she was promoted to Patrol Deputy. In the four short years that Savanna was with the Sheriff’s Office, she touched the lives of everyone that she met. Savanna had a vibrant personality that was paired with a servant’s heart. She was remembered as the one who always showed up early to her shift with a smile on her face, and fresh baked treats for her fellow deputies. Deputy Puckett was just 22-years old.
