Many folks have strong opinions about law enforcement and the state of criminal justice in the United States, but many don't realize they can actually take advantage of opportunities to see what goes on in local policing operations.  Detective Justen Hoover with the Bolivar Police Department joins us (again) this week as we discuss the state of law enforcement in Bolivar, including hiring operations and recruiting, mentalities that come along with a career in law enforcement and the fantastic program the City of Bolivar has implemented to help lure bright, intelligent and talented people into a career with the City.  Strap on that seat belt, slow down in those school zones and keep your eyes peeled for cops, as we talk with one of our own this week on the Connecting Polk County Podcast!
