KY Dept of Criminal Justice Training

It was with heavy hearts that we received the tragic news that one of our own, Russell County Sheriff’s Deputy Josh Phipps, made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty last night, serving and protecting his community. Our thoughts and prayers are with Deputy Phipps’ family, friends and fellow officers during this incredibly difficult time. We stand united in honoring Deputy Phipps’ courage, dedication and service.
