“We’re just really grateful that neither he nor any of his kids were seriously injured or killed. I mean, it’s very lucky,” said Washington County Sheriff Cory Pulsipher.
Adams was placed on administrative leave pending an internal investigation.
The accident happened on state Route 17 near La Verkin just before 4:30 p.m. in what Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Todd Royce called a “slow speed rollover accident.”
“Adams drifted off the right shoulder then over-corrected back to the left. The truck left the roadway and went down a dirt embankment in a sideways slide,” according to a statement from the UHP. This caused the truck to roll onto its hood. All four of the children were wearing their seat belts, Royce said.
Adams reportedly suffered minor injuries. In his mug shot photo, a red mark can be seen on his forehead. Adams was booked into the Iron County Jail to avoid a conflict of interest in Washington County. He posted bail and was released Monday.
Adams was hired by the sheriff’s office in 1998 and has worked for the office his entire career. He is currently the lieutenant in charge of investigations.

I think it's quite terrible what he did and should be prosecuted to the max considering he has arrested so many people for DUI. and he wants to do it himself? who does he think he is? seriously how sad. He deserves to lose his job forever. His kids should be taken away from him as well considering if any NORMAL non cop did this would have there kids taken in a heartbeat for being an "unfit" parent. He deserves nothing but a shitty life fucking pig.
I don't think this will go far anyway, You have a good ol boy system at the sheriff's department. Especially as Cory Pulsipher is the sheriff they will do everything in their power to protect one of their own. I believe Jake Adams will only get demoted to a Sgt or Line officer again. I have seen it many times they protect their own and crap on others especially if you belong to their little click.
