Hadsall answered even more ques-tions about his role as a law enforcement ofcer after his presentation to the Attica students.By Carol Jean MartinThe fall 2023 Harper County school semester’s Career Spotlights speakers are in full swing now with the first presenter, Craig Hadsall. Hadsall is a Dep-uty Sheriff with the Harper County Sheriff’s Office and a school resource officer for USD 361. He has spoken to both Chaparral and At-tica Public School students, sharing his experiences and why he still finds a purpose working in law enforce-ment.He shared that there is a great deal of excitement and adrenaline rush in law enforcement work. An indi-vidual in this field of work must be able to make split Why Become A LawEnforcement Officer?decisions, be willing to go into danger and give life for others. There are interest-ing investigations or adven-tures in the crises that may occur in the daily job. Yet there days when not much occurs that a law enforce-ment officer has to address. Indeed there is a great deal of documentation and re-ports to be made.He played a video titled, “Thunder and Lightning” that took the viewer and listening audience on a fast paced set of events depict-ing how many ways an offi-cer can serve people. It illus-trated not only the types of crisis that occur. Then that problem solving and be-ing able to make decisions about criminal activity, use of force, making arrests and performing a variety of du-ties in the safest and most efficient manner are critical to the job.Over all, as an officer, there are opportunities to save the life of a baby, a mo-torist, a battered woman or a sex offends or all of the above. Hadsall stated, “It is human nature that some look forward to being of help to others.” Most impor-tantly the law enforcement officer provides safety and security to citizens and visi-tors to our state and county.The hiring process is competitive. A high school diploma or GED is re-quired. The position re-quires graduation from the Kansas Law Enforcement OFFICER Continued on next page

At one time Hadsall said there were just 100 skills listed. In the technology age of today there are 500 skills that are the basis of fulfilling the job responsi-bilities in a thorough, safe manner. According to the Kansas Peace Officers As-sociation cite, these include knowledge of federal, state, and local laws, computers, investigative techniques, first aid, and firearms. The employee must be able to efficiently operate, comput-ers, firearms, patrol vehi-cles, radar, equipment and cameras, and other law en-forcement equipment.Passing a lie detector test is important and it is vital that an applicant is honest to the point of shar-ing what they may have done what was wrong but didn’t get caught. That type of honesty or transparency is required. Physical fitness and some martial arts training sure helps with physical ability to take down or even care for a person. There remains a need for law enforcement. Accord-ing to Hadsall 78% of the various law enforcement facilities can’t find quali-fied personnel to help hold the line between good and evil. Larger cities have long OFFICER Continued from previous pagewait times between when a person dials 911 before a law enforcement individual arrives. Compensation for a po-lice or sheriff officer can run from $44,000 for 9 years of service to more, based on seniority. Some police pre-cincts can be well funded depended on the municipal-ity. It is possible some offer health and life insurance benefits as well as retire-ment packages.Being in law enforce-ment is a labor of love. It is a service to others. One of the most rewarding aspects is to be able to help some-one get out of a bad situa-tion, get back on their feet, or turn their lives around. Or find a survivor of an ac-cident they officer worked on that is healed and hav-ing a rewarding life. Then there is the good feeling, “I made a difference in some-one’s life.”• PRINTING •• SIGNS •• SHIRTS •• BANNERS •• STAMPS •LD’S PRINTING620-842-5129EMAIL YOUR NEWS TO:anthonyrepublican@att.netCatching Up With The County CommissionEditor’s Note: This article contains minutes frommultiple meetings.Official Meeting MinutesRegular MeetingSubmitted By HarperCounty Clerk’s OfficeAugust 28, 2023The Harper County Board of County Commis-sioners met in regular ses-sion, with Chairman Stru-ble calling the meeting to order with Commissioner Waldschmidt, Commis-sioner Vornauf was absent.
