Oceana County Sheriff Craig Mast would like to recognize the recent promotion of Scott Bosley from the rank of sergeant to lieutenant. Lt. Bosley will be overseeing the patrol division at the sheriff’s office.
Lt. Bosley was born and raised in Traverse City, Mich., where he attended Traverse City Central High School. Lt. Bosley enlisted in the U.S. Coast Guard, where he served four years at Station Ludington. Lt. Bosley was a Boatswainsmate 3rd Class Petty Officer. He left the U.S. Coast Guard in 1996 to pursue an education in law enforcement at West Shore Community College.
Lt. Bosley was hired at the Oceana Sheriff’s Office in 1996 as a seasonal marine officer by Sheriff Fred Korb. He was hired as a full-time sheriff’s deputy in 1998 and assigned to the road patrol division. Lt. Bosley will have 27 years of experience in 2025, serving the majority of his career on night shift, the last 16 years as a sergeant.
Lt. Bosley has been married to his wife Amber for 30 years, and they have two adult sons, one of whom recently entered the DNR law division academy. Lt. Bosley enjoys hunting, fishing and kayaking when he is not working.
“I believe Lt. Bosley will be a great member of my administrative team and look forward to seeing him continue to do great things while serving our community,” Mast said.
