As law enforcement professionals, our continued focus will be to help educate our community members about recommended best practices which have been shared by public health professionals. As a community it\u2019s important we work together to make informed decisions based upon up to date medical data and work collaboratively toward voluntary compliance.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"o9v6fnle cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">As expressed by law enforcement agencies from across the state, we too recognize the inconvenience and health risks the pandemic has caused all of us.
