The sheriff presented five promotions — including a new captain and multiple sergeant and detective promotions — during the commissioners' July 9 meeting in a brief recognition ceremony.

The Yellowstone County sheriff opened his portion of the July 9 Board of County Commissioners meeting to recognize several internal promotions. Sergeant Tanner Johnson (formerly Detective Tanner Johnson) was among those promoted; Deputy Sandquist was promoted to detective; Corporal Jesse Turner was elevated to sergeant; Corey Schaeffer was promoted to lieutenant to serve as second-in-command at the detention facility; and Brandon Smart, previously a lieutenant, was promoted to captain to lead operations at the detention facility.
