Born and raised near downtown Houston, Gerardo “Jerry” Rodriguez, is a proud second-generation Mexican American who is family-centered and devoted to his community. Growing up from a humbling neighborhood, Jerry was faced with challenges that inspired him to seek out answers to the injustices of our society. After searching for some time, Jerry found his calling. If he wanted to see change in this society, he needed to be the change. Jerry enrolled in the police academy at age 21 and has never looked back.
After graduating from Lamar High School, Jerry continued his educational journey at the University of Houston-Downtown where he earned his law enforcement certification and earned both his bachelor's and master's degrees in Criminal Justice. Jerry has also dedicated himself to the safety of our community with a remarkable 18 years in law enforcement, nearly 17 of those years with Harris County Precinct 5.
His dedication to fostering a more informed society led him to a fulfilling role as a criminal justice professor for Lone Star College. Over the course of nine years, Jerry had the privilege of shaping the minds of aspiring criminal justice professionals, instilling in them the values of ethics, critical thinking, and effective problem-solving.
Currently serving as a sergeant at Harris County Precinct 5, Jerry is ready to continue on with his path in helping his community by stepping forward as your choice for Harris County Constable Precinct 5. Let's stand with Jerry and together we can pave the way to a brighter, better community that we can call home.
