New state troopers — 19 of them — graduated from the State Patrol’s Law Enforcement Academy this week.
The new troopers will report to duty across the state on January 9th.
In our area — which is Troop B — two of the graduates will work in Linn and Chariton Counties. They are Jorden Billings who is from Bowling Green and Carter Munch who is from Hannibal.
