The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office (MDSO) and members of the community will honor on Tuesday the life and service of Deputy Devin M. Jaramillo, who died on Nov. 7 after being shot in southwest Miami-Dade County. He was 27 years old.
The ceremony, which will be open to the public, will take place at loanDepot Park at around 10:00 a.m.
Beforehand, a private mass will be held. The procession from the Caballero Rivero Woodlawn funeral home to the church is expected to begin at 6:00 a.m., according to officials.
Who was Devin Jaramillo?
Deputy Jaramillo graduated from the University of Central Florida (UCF) in 2019 with a degree in Criminal Justice. Shortly after, he began his law enforcement career as a member of the Coral Gables Police Department, where he stood out for his professionalism and dedication.
In July 2023, he was named Officer of the Month by the Coral Gables Police Department after arresting a suspect involved in package theft and solving three additional related cases.
As a member of the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office, Jaramillo was once again recognized — in August 2025, he conducted a traffic stop during which he discovered 13 firearms, including rifles, shotguns, and handguns, along with ammunition. The driver, a repeat offender with a suspended license, was also found to possess a rifle with the serial number removed. Several of the weapons were within immediate reach inside the vehicle.
The young deputy was admired by his colleagues for his ethics, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to public safety.

His father, David Jaramillo, is a retired detective with the Miami-Dade Police Department and currently serves as president emeritus of the Hispanic Police Officers Association (HPOA). Devin was also an active volunteer with the organization.
In a statement, the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office said: “With great sadness, we announce the passing of Deputy Devin Jaramillo, a valued member of our agency.
