Same Crap, Different State Attorney

Posted on by

This is a hard truth that I hoped would not be so but the State Attorney’s Office is still operating questionably. I got a tip about a case that that was handled inappropriately. The case involves a grandfather of either a former or current Santa Rosa Sheriff’s deputy. It doesn’t appear he actually is a deputy there but I won’t say with certainty that he isn’t. The deputy’s name is Joshua Carlson. His father is Alvah B. Carlson Jr, and grandfather is Alvah B. Carlson Sr. Sr. lives in Milton and Jr. lives in Navarre. Then tip was specifically about the Jr. He reportedly masturbated on a property where he was trespassing on camera but failed to get arrested for it. But then more crazy comes out about this family. Jr. was arrested in August 2022 for getting a DUI in his official cruiser

Former Houston County deputy charged with DUI

ELBA, Ala. (WDHN) — A former Houston County sheriff’s deputy has been fired after being charged with a DUI.
Alvah Carlson, 38, of Elba, was arrested in Elba on a driving while intoxicated charge on Wednesday night. He was arrested after driving his patrol car erratically, according to a source close to WDHN.
After receiving the charge, Carlson was terminated Wednesday night, according to Houston County Sheriff Donald Valenza.
Carlson has previously worked as an Elba police officer and a Brantley police officer.
In regards to Carlson’s charge and firing Sheriff Valenza said:
“I’m not going to tolerate this (behavior).”
He was released from the Coffee County Jail on a $1,000 bond Thursday morning.

But this is only the beginning of the craziness. His father was arrested in 2019 on a litany of charges. Here is the arrest report:

So after inquiring with some people in Santa Rosa, supposedly this deal was cut due to Sr. being terminal and the source claimed he is dead. I found no evidence of him being dead. No transference of property; no probate; no obituary. This appears to be a bad deal made with this guy.

This shit happens more than it should in this day and age.

If anyone knows the specifics or has proof this man is dead, please contact me. Otherwise, this is just another sad case in the Florida Panhandle.

    • Alabamas public records laws are shitty, and I can only know what is public record. you can send me court docs that corroborate what you said about the one arrested for DUI. Otherwise you missed the point of this this post. It’s about how their crimes were not acknowledged in Santa Rosa. None of what you said makes any of that acceptable. The one with the DUI is literally the lesser of the evils. But honestly I have little interest in worrying about what this family was “falsely accused of”. It’s irrelevant. Masturbating on camera on the neighbors property is not ok. Molesting a 12 year old with photographic evidence of the crimes and neither of them being prosecuted is NOT OK.

  3. The police officer terminated in Alabama is Alvah Carlson III, Alvah Carlson jr is the father of Alvah Carlson III AND Alvah Carlson Sr is the father of Alvah Carlson jr.
    Alvah Carlson Jr youngest son is Joshua Carlson is a deputy in Santa Rosa County and somehow was awarded deputy of the year in 2021. .

  4. I have a tape of Pensacola LE corruption needing to be shared.

    Trumped up allegations without legitimate proof. Witness testimony from person unable to identify primary colors. 16 officers on scene yet body cam footage from only 4 officers provided in discovery, 7 officers involved between apprehension, interrogation, arrest and documentation process. No dash cam footage, from 10+ EMS LE vehicles offered in discovery. contradictory. This county is trying to ruin my life over what should be nothing more than public intoxication at best. Currently being charged with 1st degree burglary for touching 4 door handles of a locked police cruiser (allegedly)

  6. You need to know facts before spreading rumors about people that you don’t even know. Alvah Brian Carlson 3rd was not driving erratic. He had a flat tire and called the police for help. The officer showed up to “help”, sought this as a perfect time to get his revenge and arrested him. Every single officer that was there, said that he wasn’t under the influence and didn’t need to be arrested, but Landon thigpin was stomping his feet like a child, saying “no. I’m arresting him. I’m fixing to hook him up”. Alvah 3rd had written him up many times, while serving as his police Sargeant, at Elba police department. He was not under the influence. The arresting officer got fired after all of this and he got his ass handed to him in court. The arresting officer was on vacation for his wifes bday, and tried to not come to court and the judge told him “I’ll give you until this time to get here. You want to throw people in jail, I can throw you in jail” … She made him appear, just to drop the case. The whole thing was thrown out and then he was fired. Alvah 3rd is a great man, and not crooked at all.
    Alvah jr, WAS arrested on his stuff. He takes a sleeping medicine that makes him not be able to know what is going on, or even remember anything. That case hasn’t been settled.. As for alvah sr, his computer and phone was taken, he was thoroughly investigated and found innocent. He went to court and stood trial. You should refrain from posting things that you know nothing about.

    • Ha. You do know that ambien will occasionally affect people to do things that they routinely do without knowledge , grabbing a ladder , scaling a 6 ft Fence and putting on a masterbation show in a neighbors yard at 8.30pm is not I’m hoping a routine activity . The ambien defense is Alvah grasping at straws to make an excuse for his disturbing actions , and you would be a fool to believe that lie . Had he been driving or eating in his sleep , very plausible as it’s a routine activity , trespassing and masterbating directly to a camera …….. umm yeah not so much . If you want to defend a pervert and his family that’s on you . But to say that Alvah Sr was innocent of child molestation after reading the court documents is beyond ignorant on your part and the previous District attorney should be investigated over this.
      I guess it pays to have a family member of the carlsons in the sheriff’s office.
