This past Saturday, Deputy Klein and Deputy Long taught an ORV Safety class in Martin. They had 20 students join them to learn about safe ORV techniques and how to become safe, knowledgeable & responsible ORV operators. It was a great group and training!

Congratulations to our graduates and their families on this outstanding achievement. We wish them safety, success and fulfilment as they embark on this rewarding career.

Congratulations to Lieutenant Koetsier and Lieutenant Hinds on graduating from the Michigan State University School of Staff and Command!

This prestigious 400-hour executive leadership program is designed for law enforcement supervisors and managers, focusing on strategic leadership, critical thinking, organizational management, and real-world problem solving through a combination of classroom instruction and facilitated distance learning.

Their commitment to professional development reflects the Kent County Sheriff’s Office dedication to strong leadership, continuous learning, and providing the highest level of service to our community. The knowledge and experience gained through this program will help strengthen our organization and prepare the next generation of public safety leaders.

Join us in congratulating Undersheriff Lowell Larson on graduating from Session 298 of the FBI National Academy in Quantico, VA.

The FBI National Academy provides top-tier law enforcement professionals with advanced communication, behavioral science, leadership, and fitness training. Only a small, highly selective percentage of officers from around the world are chosen to attend.

We are incredibly proud of the hard work, dedication, and the countless hours of rigorous training put in to reach this milestone. Thank you for your continued commitment to excellence and for bringing this world-class leadership and knowledge back to serve Marquette County!

Please congratulate Sgt Mike Badour on his retirement (again). His career spanned 31 full time years, 5 years part time, most of which were spent as Jail Admistrator. During his tenure, the jail recieved the highest ratings in annual MDOC inspections. Well done Mike, enjoy it, you earned it.

Congratulations Detective Jordan!

Detective Jordan was awarded the 2026 Michigan Law Enforcement Officer of the Year Award on Saturday. The Veterans of Foreign Wars VFW granted this recognition for the successful prosecution of an individual who stole just under $400,000 from a Navy Veteran. Good work detective!
