Catherine Gaughan, a nurse with Wayne State University, preps Wayne County Sheriff Benny Napoleonâs arm prior to drawing blood for the COVID-19 antibody test. The antibody test will identify only if the person has been previously exposed to the virus giving the body the ability to build up antibodies to fight the infection. Gaughan said that adults in their late 50s and the elderly are most susceptible to the virus right now. People with many medical conditions as well as high blood pressure, and COPD are also more susceptible to the virus.

Earnell R. Lucas issued the following statement on the passing of Wayne County Sheriff
“I am deeply saddened by the passing of my dear friend and mentor, Wayne County Sheriff Benny Napoleon. A native of Detroit, Benny was known to all as a kind, intelligent and compassionate leader. A towering figure, yet humble spirit, Benny was as comfortable in the presence of the underserved and underprivileged as he was in the presence of the powerful and privileged. I met Benny shortly after becoming sheriff and our fondness and affection for one another took off immediately. He spent countless hours sharing with me the rigors of being sheriff, yet he also shared with me what an honor and privilege it is to serve the people of Wayne County. We last spoke, about security measures, in the days leading up to the November elections. I called and sent him a text two weeks later asking him if he would be on the Major County Sheriffs of America regio
