The Jefferson County sheriff’s corporal, a Live PD fan favorite known for her aggressive style, love for dogs and tattoos, was first featured on the now cancelled A&E series in 2019 when the show began following the sheriff’s office in its fourth season.

Marshall says she can count on two fingers the number of times work has brought her to tears.

The first happened when she was on the scene of an animal abuse investigation. The sights were just too much, and she had to go to her car and cry it out.

The second happened more than a week ago when, on a drug operation in north Jefferson County, she apparently came in direct contact with an opioid.

It was a terrifying time for the 33-year-old member of the Sheriff’s Neighborhood Enforcement Team and SWAT team and said she had to pull over on the side of Interstate 65 and radio for help when her body began to shut down.

Her fellow deputies arrived quickly and administered two doses of Narcan to Marshall on the side of the interstate. Narcan is an opioid-overdose antidote often carried by first responders and caretakers of people with heroin addiction.

Marshall said is thankful she is alive to tell her story, which was also captured on the deputies’ body worn cameras.

“I’ve seen how quick it can take someone over on the many times that I have worked overdose calls. I’ve actually used Narcan on someone. I’ve seen them blue,’' Marshall said.

“I can control anything that I work with, but I couldn’t control this because it was something that alters your mind and body that I didn’t do to myself. It was a very helpless feeling.”

It was March 27 when Marshall and her fellow SNET team members were sent to a home in Warrior after they’d received tips of heroin, methamphetamine and fentanyl there. Specifically, they were searching for two people they wanted to question.

“We were allowed access inside of the house and one of the suspects was there that we needed to talk to,’' she said. “We saw paraphernalia and drugs in plain view and at that point we just did a walk through with the suspect with us.”

Marshall said the house was full of illicit drugs and paraphernalia.

“Heroin, fentanyl, loaded needles, empty needles, spoons, baggies that were open, baggies that were closed,’' she said. “Every drawer I opened, I found something. It was all over the dresser.”

She even found 7.2 grams of Ice – or crystal meth – hidden in the floor vent of a bathroom where a woman was taking a shower.

Several of her teammates were standing guard over the other five people in the house. Another was interviewing people and Marshall, wearing gloves and a face mask, collected the drugs and evidence on a tray.

When done, she put it all in a bag to be taken in, inventoried, and documented.

“There were so many things I had been touching,’' she said. “I guess my hand touched something that later touched something.”

“When I left, I felt like I was just overheated,’' Marshall said. “There was no AC in the house, we hadn’t eaten lunch and we were in full gear. I didn’t really think anything about it.”
