I had an opportunity to sit in on a lunch meeting with some area law enforcement officers and county probation officers. I don’t have the luxury to make all the meetings but I do try to make a few of them each year. It might surprise you to know that area law enforcement officers in Rice County regularly meet with Rice County Community Corrections Officers. It’s an opportunity to learn about individuals on probation and an opportunity for probation officers to learn about what their clients might be up to in the community.
It’s another example of the excellent working relationship established between members of the criminal justice system in our area.
