In Part 2 of this Getting to Know, Your Local LEO Episode, we will continue our conversation with Chief Tracy Basterrechea, the Chief of Police at the Meridian Police Department, in Meridian, Idaho.
In this episode we will pick up where we left off, discussing the tremendous amount of work that goes into branding cattle. He also shares with us his favorite shows to watch, favorite country singer, and his New Year’s Eve specialty dish.
Plus, we talk about the amazing piece of legislation passed in the State of Idaho to assist officers dealing with Post Traumatic Stress Injury and how the city of Meridian helps keep them financially whole.
As we intertwine great leadership into our discussion, we also talk about the amazing culture at the Meridian Police Department, and how YOU can become a part of it. Visit www.joinmeridianpd.org today, to learn more. The next academy starts in October.
