#242 Sheriff Joe Nole: JC’s Top Cop
(Airdate: May 14, 2024) Maryanne interviews Jefferson County Sheriff Joe Nole, the top law enforcement officer in Jefferson County. As a young man, his dream was to become a wildlife biologist. He was working for the Forest Service near Quilcene when he realized that a big part of that job was law enforcement — such as enforcing regulations that kept motorcycles out of the National Parks. Next stop was the Police Academy and he soon began a career with the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department. He rose through the ranks and decided to run for Sheriff in 2018. Sheriff Nole is a big fan of newer programs that offer counseling and treatment in lieu of jail time. He would like to see more mental health professionals partnering with the police force.
