Jasper County Sheriffs Office recognizes new employees in ceremony

CARTHAGE, Mo. – The Jasper County Sheriff’s Office commemorated Law Enforcement Appreciation Day Monday.

The office honored new employees and people recently promoted. They held a ceremony at Carthage’s Memorial Hall.

“(We) recognize the significant contribution that law enforcement employees make in their community,” said Jasper County Sheriff Randee Kaiser. “And it’s not to be taken lightly. I think if you come to work for a law enforcement agency, that decision to serve the public in that way should be honored. This is one of the ways that we do that.”

This was the first event honoring new hirings at the sheriff’s office since the pandemic started.
