I wanted to let all my friends, that I am home from the hospital. Please keep me in your prayers. It appears I have a long battle ahead of me.

It is with a heavy heart that we inform you of the loss of one of our officers, Antonio Valentine. He passed away today in the line of duty. He has been a part of our police family since 2007. This has shaken our department. Please pray for his family, co-workers & friends.

Sheriff: Ill. inmate attacks CO, disarms him and fires gun at courthouse https://t.co/fYhilU7x1g #corrections1 #correctionsnews

Just my opinion, @RepHartzler would be the best candidate for U.S. Senate. Corrections Officers should look at what @Eric_Schmitt & @EricGreitens has done to them in the past, what they are doing to them now and what they can do to them in the future. @Brianontheair

[Mo. DOC- Past & Present Employees. @DocPast]

Corrections Officer and staff need to remember what these gentlemen did for the DOC. Both wanted a change in Corrections, one appointed the current Director who has dismantle the Dept. to its current status. The second one leads the fights against CO,s in court on lawsuits.

Employee of the Month Seth Elliott, a corrections training officer, puts his crisis intervention training to use. When a distraught neighbor told him she feared her partner would harm himself, Elliott notified emergency personnel & intervened to de-escalate the situation. #CIT

[Steven Perkins @scperkins2]

@RyanWrecker I know that feeling. 😂

[Steven Perkins @scperkins2]

Just heard on @Missourinet of job applications for @MoCorrections officers are up 38% due to the pay increase. The big question is how many of those applications will pass the background check? How many of the applicants will remain after basic training and assignment?

[Steven Perkins @scperkins2]

It appears StL city 911 system is overwhelmed.

#BREAKING

A car is on fire on I44 West right under the St. Louis arch.

No law enforcement on scene. Me and @DamonArnoldKMOV have been trying to call 911 for the last 10 minutes.

No one answered the calls. We’ve called several times. Car is FULLY engulfed now. @KMOV

[Oklahoma Department of Corrections @OklaDOC]

ODOC is searching for a missing inmate. Gabriel Simon walked away from the minimum security unit of Lexington Correctional Center. Simon was serving 20 years for robbery 2nd degree w/a dangerous weapon. If you see Simon, call your local law enforcement agency immediately.

[Steven Perkins @scperkins2]

I think it is a great ideal of @MoCorrections posting the current job openings. I was wondering how much trouble it would be to announce how many Correctional Officer position you are wanting to fill at each institution. You have done this with other positions you have announced.

To all @MoCorrections officers and staff. This could easily happen in the institutions, please be vigilant and be careful
