St. Bernard Sheriff’s Office Citizens Police Academy’s 21st session

The 2019 St. Bernard Sheriff’s Office Citizens Police Academy’s last two weeks featured a trip to the parish jail and a visit from members of the Marine Division.

Citizens Police Academy participants were given a tour of the jail and they learned about some of the tasks performed by members of the Marine Division, including water rescues.

Coordinated by Capt. Charles Borchers, Sgt. Eric Eilers and Dep. Aaron Johnson, the free, 10-week course, which began Aug. 21, teaches residents about the various aspects of law enforcement and what the men and women of the Sheriff’s Office do on a day-to-day basis to keep their community safe.

The class will wrap up Oct. 23 with a graduation ceremony.
