Thank you for you help getting the help

Thank you job well done

This is what everyone wants. Not wasting our time and money on unnecessary stops for minor traffic offenses. This is actually doing your job as police officers

Have you looked into the 11 registered sex offenders employed at the business next to playtime arcade in wentzville?

Today, we recognize and congratulate Officer Roberts on his retirement from the Wentzville Police Department after 10 years of dedicated service to our department and community.

When Officer Roberts joined WPD, he brought 22 years of prior law enforcement experience and a wealth of knowledge that immediately made him a valuable addition to our team. Over the past decade, he continued to share that experience, professionalism and commitment to service with the officers around him.

In his most recent assignment as a School Resource Officer at Wentzville Middle School, Officer Roberts made an especially lasting impact. He worked closely with students, teachers and staff, building positive relationships and becoming a trusted and familiar face throughout the school. Whether mentoring students, offering guidance or simply taking the time to connect with those around him, he understood that being an SRO meant much more than wearing a badge in a school. He was committed to creating a safe, welcoming and positive environment where students could learn and staff could do their jobs with confidence.

His impact at Wentzville Middle School is clear. He built relationships that will last well beyond his time in uniform, and its no surprise that the school community already misses having him there.

Officer Roberts leaves behind an incredible 32-year career in law enforcement, including 10 years of service to Wentzville. We are grateful for the experience, dedication and genuine care he brought to our department and the community we serve.

Congratulations on your retirement, Officer Roberts. Thank you for being such a great addition to our team and for the positive difference you have made in the lives of so many students, staff members and fellow officers. We wish you all the best in this next chapter.

Next internal investigation will be the 5uscs 110001 social media , public relations

🙌

Right on 👊🏿

The thing is all this advertisement of publicity law this law that task force this task force that yet put the ones that are public servants hindering Cases in prosecution on the lie detector and see the sexual misconduct, Missouri State Highway Patrol , St. Charles County Missouri Scanner Traffic , St. Charles County Police Department .

Here's some bad news: A 2009 study of more than 67,000 sex offenses reported to law enforcement agencies in 30 states across nine years “found no significant increase in risk for nonfamilial child sexual abuse on or just prior to Halloween.” Not to mention these lists have been proven to be all but useless. Yet we keep cheering for halloween compliance checks. Let's focus on a real solution to this problem.
