In this episode of the Community Spotlight Podcast, we sit down with Captain Mike Bilbruck and Lieutenant Lenny Kubilus from the Henry County Sheriff's Office to discuss critical community safety issues. As tax season approaches, scams and identity theft become rampant, and the Sheriff's Office is proactively addressing these concerns with strategic outreach and public awareness initiatives. We delve into the investigative processes with over a hundred investigative steps taken just last month, and highlight the importance of staying vigilant against fraudsters. Beyond scams, the conversation takes us to the operations of the Mid-Missouri Drug Task Force. Task force officers have been actively involved in saturation operations in neighboring counties, showing significant impact through unmarked patrols and coordinated efforts. These actions underscore a commitment to a regional approach to combating drug-related issues, with community safety as the driving force. Further, the Sheriff's Office emphasizes their multi-faceted engagement approach, including participation in local events like trunk or treats and educational programs. We learn about the new Blue Line Blessing initiative, designed to offer children in financial need a brighter Christmas, and hear from Captain Bilbrook about fostering a community-oriented culture among deputies, enhancing trust and accessibility with residents.
