Jerome City swears in three new police officers
Summary
Mayor Christopher Barber administered oaths to three newly hired officers—Clifford, Jones and Martin—after Police Chief Duane Rubink described them as welcome additions drawn from nearby departments.
The Jerome City Council and Mayor Christopher J. Barber administered oaths of office May 19 to three new police officers joining the department. Police Chief Duane Rubink introduced Officer Clifford, who relocated from Twin Falls and "is a welcome addition to the department," and noted Officers Jones and Martin came from Gooding; each officer received the oath and was pinned by family members.
Chief Rubink said the hires bolster department staffing; Mayor Barber performed the formal oath for each officer. The council did not take a separate roll-call vote on the appointments during the ceremony, which took place early in the meeting during ceremonial items.
