Illinois State Police District 13 introduces new safety officer

From Joey Watson – Illinois State Police District 13

DU QUOIN – As the Safety Education Officer for District 13 for the last 5 years, I have been one of the administrators of the District’s FB page. I have truly enjoyed connecting to the people we serve in our area and beyond and have particularly enjoyed staying in touch with retired ISP. However, I am transitioning to a new role within the State Police and am handing over the reigns to a new Safety Education Officer.

Troopers Joey Watson and Josh Haile

I’d like to introduce you to Trooper Josh Haile. Trooper Haile is a 13 year veteran of the State Police and was an officer at SIU PD before serving here. Josh has already been shadowing me to learn my duties for several days now and I gotta say, I’m impressed.

We look forward to seeing him make this position his own and where he takes it. Because we are all individuals serving a common good for the community, we are excited to see the fresh look he takes toward spreading the Illinois State Police’s message of safety.

Please join me in welcoming Josh to his new position as the face of ISP District 13 and in wishing him the best as he moves the message of safety down the field.
