KSP Using Social Networking
KENTUCKY...
Facebook is almost an addiction for many. Now law enforcement agencies are getting hooked. Kentucky State Police use the social networking site as a way for you to get to know them and stay informed. "We are on the right track with the social media and we're gonna continue to use it," said Lt. David Jude. KSP started their Facebook page a year ago and already have 17,000 followers. By "liking" the page, you can follow what they're working on. The page can warn you about everything from a missing person to an escaped inmate. Jude says the site allows them to instantly put out information to a wide audience quickly and it also get's them instant feedback.
