The law enforcement initiative is intended to improve public safety, deter crime and assist local police along the River Line light-rail system.
State Sen. Troy Singleton, Burlington County Sheriff James Kostoplis and the Burlington County Commissioners announced the launch of a new proactive law enforcement initiative to improve public safety, deter crime and assist local police along the River Line light-rail system.
Burlington County Sheriff’s officers have started special patrols at and near River Line stations in Burlington County. When requested, those officers will also transport suspects arrested in River Line towns from that jurisdiction’s police department to Burlington County Detention Center in Mount Holly. By transporting those suspects for those local police department, the Sheriff’s Office will save municipal officers time and allow them to more quickly return to patrols and investigations.
The special Sheriff’s details started earlier this month and are being funded with a $150,000 legislative funding grant secured by Singleton and Assemblywoman Andrea Katz in the FY2025 New Jersey State Budget.
