Idaho State Police will host the weeklong iLEAD Academy for high school students this summer in Meridian + the program will offer hands-on leadership training and law enforcement exposure to participants from across Idaho.
🏛️ Government
The legislature sent a bill to Governor Brad Little today that would remove the front license plate requirement and regulate plate readers, a move opposed by law enforcement who say front plates are key for solving serious crimes like murder and child kidnapping.
