Well done to the @claycountymo Election Board! I voted early today & waited about 15 minutes. There were lots of people, but it moved fast. Also, they mailed us our sample ballot in advance this year, which was super helpful. 10/10 presidential election voting experience.
Clay County deputies rescued twin toddlers who were being held as hostages following a stand-off in Pleasant Valley last night. Tyson S. Campbell, 27, is charged with domestic assault. More: https://t.co/Y0gXSpiPs9

Coming to our Trunk or Treat tonight? Be sure to vote for your favorite display. It's an intense competition among the units here at the Sheriff's Office for bragging rights and this sweet traveling trophy.
Taking in a little Boston skyline at #IACP2024. I've already gotten some great ideas I can't wait to implement to help @SheriffClayCo shine and help folks realize what a great place it is to work!
Thank you, @FBIKansasCity, for hosting public information officer training today by absolute rockstars Gail Pennybacker and Ken White. Their research into law enforcement public info. practices informed some great lessons for us.

I had some great discussions with middle school girls today about social media safety at the @ParkHillSchools Alliance for Youth's Grow GatHERing. These kids are just wading into social media, and it was a great opportunity to talk about good habits and potential pitfalls.
A deputy patrolling Smithville Lake over the weekend heard suspicious activity in a dumpster. He found 2 bandits trapped inside that couldn't get out. Armed with his uniform coat, he helped them escape. Sound on!
As always, I learned so much and got to hang out with remarkable law enforcement communicators from all over the western hemisphere. Thanks also, @PLewbel, for doing so much of the coordination.
Another @TheIACP Public Information Officers Section Midyear Conference in the books, and it was incredible! Thank you to @DCPoliceDept and @SecretService for being such great hosts, letting us see so many cool things.
This is going to be so much fun for some amazing causes, and we're still looking for teams. Also, it's my first time coordinating a golf tournament, so do me a solid and sign up!

One of the best things I get to see walking into work: adoption day at the Clay County Circuit Court. This family was taking pictures with balloons.
Someone must be cutting onions.
Just an armored vehicle chilling in the school drop-off line.
So fun to ride along with the winners of Liberty Education Foundation’s auction for a ride to school in this big guy today!
A family - mom, dad, son, dog and cat - living in a camper at Smithville Lake lost almost everything today when it was blown over in likely tornado. No one was hurt, but they have a hard road ahead. If you want to help, here’s how: https://t.co/j7gXtnk0tX
