The highest-ranking civilian at the Polk County Sheriff's Office — a woman who managed all administrative aspects of the agency — was beaten to death by her husband over the weekend, authorities said.

Beatrice "Bea" Dickey, 44, was found early Sunday in Plant City with blunt-force trauma to her head.

As executive director of the Office of Business Affairs at the Sheriff's Office, Bea Dickey was the third-highest ranking executive staff member after Sheriff Grady Judd and Chief of Staff Steve Lester.
