From Sheriff Derek Polston:
 

Russell County citizens, join me in welcoming our two newest Deputies to the Russell County Sheriffs Department: Devin Blakey and Stone Bolin. They will be scheduled to attend the Department of Criminal Justice in Richmond, KY in January 2025 where they'll complete 20 weeks of police training. In the meantime, they will be riding with Road Deputies, observing and learning what they can before January. If you see either of these gentlemen out and about with other Deputies, welcome them onboard!
