The Blaine County Sheriff's Office is excited to announce that Deputy Michael Wampler has been hired to be our School Resource Officer. Wampler has over a decade of law enforcement experience with the Idaho Dept. of Fish and Game and the Nevada Dept. of Wildlife. His primary duties will include mentoring students at the Carey School, educating students, staff, and community members on safety protocols, and deterring and investigating criminal activity on school campuses. This will be Carey School's first dedicated SRO. Wampler will also participate in the safety advisory teams for Bellevue Elementary and Hemingway Elementary Schools. We have no doubt that Deputy Wampler will quickly become an asset to our community.
