The Johnston
County Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) has presented a
$500 check to the Wilson’s Mills Fire Department to help
with operations and expenses. FOP President Jason
Hutchins presented the check to Wilson’s Mills Fire
Chief Ricky Barbour on Friday. “We’re glad to help out
Wilson’s Mills Fire Department,” Hutchins said. “We try
to put money back in the community. It’s a good cause.”
Firemen say donations like those from the FOP help keep
fire taxes low in the district. The FOP is currently

OVER 2000 Child DNA KITS
HANDED OUT!!!
|
 |
THANK YOU to all the lodge
members who took time out from their personal and
professional lives to pass out Child ID / DNA
kits during Smithfield's HAM AND YAM Festival on May 5th
and 6th. The ID Complete is the best of both
worlds. This Kit combines fingerprinting and Whatman FTA
DNA Technology. The DNA Technology is patented and
widely used in crime labs and through state law
enforcement applications nationally. Historically,
successful storage and recovery of DNA required test
tubes, hazardous buffers, ultra-low freezers and storage
media. DNA can be stored at room temperature for
years and remain stable for analysis. This is an amazing
product which lodge 88 was happy to share with the
community we are sworn to protect. |
