Every detail tells a story 🔍

Our newest officers are getting hands-on training with Detective Bruce Kitchens from UMMC Police & Public Safety, learning the art and precision of lifting fingerprints from a vehicle. It’s more than just technique—it’s about patience, focus, and uncovering the evidence that others might miss.

This kind of real-world training ensures our team is prepared to serve with skill and professionalism from day one.
