What is the difference between a sheriff explorer and sheriff depute?

[Edit]

A "Sheriff's Explorer" is typically a non-sworn volunteer member of a law enforcement agency. An Explorer is usually a younger person who is interested in law enforcement and volunteers his/her time to assist the agency with various tasks. A lot of times an Explorer unit is affiliated with a Boy/Girl Scout troop. Explorers do not carry weapons and have no peace officer powers. A Sheriff's Deputy has completed an academy, carries firearms and makes arrests, as any other Police Officer or sworn peace officer would.
