I highly recommend their Citizen's Police Academy and CERT classes open to the public (with registration). The facility itself is very impressive with all-electronic-keyed doors throughout. It also houses YCOM the area's 911 dispatch service. The chief, officers and staff are always at lots of community events and the dedication of their volunteers rivals that of any non-profit in town.

Let's see, where's the Yelp for Monmouth, home of Western Oregon University?…read more Gosh, given I'm a bored retiree, a combined legal/intelligence and military professional, with my three fancy degrees, what could I say about the peeps on Jackson street. First and foremost, I hope and pray to the peacock angel Lucifer (having a temporal personage in Dick Cheney) that we never get a new police station in Monmouth. Great for Highway 99, delightful to have a secure area to seize and hold evidence (cars , vans, even mobile homes like the one(s) where I currently reside in Yolk County. And I can't say I recall meeting any of them lately, and being a collegiate drug dealer in the Eugene Corvallis corridor, it's best to keep up appearances in one group of peeps, and overall send conflicting signals. Don't know anything about the VIlle, and aside from the times Monmouth local peeps bogarted my stash and snatch locally I still has Benevolent Tenancies Towards the fuzz. At the same time, I'm tired of the man keepin' me down! I'm H James Tharp, local Monmouth/Independence oddball sports personality, and I approve of this Yelp review. And you can put that in your pipe and smoke it , by golly.

Also she has pictures of her son's hand where he was trying to make him and his sister some food while in custody of their father, and he spilled boiling water on himself. Plus she has proof and pictures of this also he told her that he's gonna end at all because she won't take him back and that he's going to kill himself he tried to do it in 2020 unsuccessful and she has proof of that so this is what the judge tells her you guys need counseling and that was it dismissed so I guarantee you if something happens to those kids while they're in his custody, there will be a lawsuit. What is wrong with these judges these days? She can't even get a restraining order on him because he keeps harassing her nonstop won't leave her alone questions. The kids tells the kids to say certain things to her where you can hear him in the background telling them what to say, and nothing was done!!

Admittedly, I am not happy about having so much contact with law enforcement (there are a lot of…read moreissues in my area), but I have to say that my experiences with the Salem Police Department have been exceptional. As a former prosecutor, I do know what to look for when it comes to judging experiences with the police, and it isn't just contact with the officer. Response time, investigations, quality of report writing, handling of matters, follow-up, and many other factors have to be taken into consideration. In my experience, Salem PD has excelled in all of those areas. I've lived in many major cities and I've lived in a few suburban areas. The police department here in Salem most definitely ranks at the top of my list for dependability, trustworthiness, and helpfulness. I want to note that Officer Orso is, hands down, the best officer that I have seen in my career, where I have had contact with thousands of officers. I watched him interview my client, who was a victim of a sexual assault. Orso was patient, kind, compassionate, and most importantly, he did not engage in any victim-blaming tactics that people use, generally without realizing it. I watched the interview with the victim, and found myself wishing that all officers who make contact with victims of sexual abuse and domestic violence could approach it in the same way that Orso did. Truly, he has set an incredibly high standard that all officers should live up to. Thank you, Officer Orso.

My insurance had lapsed because things have been tough, as I'm out of work due to a workplace injury.

Salem cops are not friendly, they do not care, they are only after your money and freedom.

For all you pet owners who visit this area, please be prepared for this potential eventuality.

This department is a joke . I have been getting harassed by my neighbor for over a year I've called…read morethe police for help now they're acting as though I'm a nuisance and I'm a bother because this person is seemingly getting personal information and I don't know her like that . I express my concerns and my fears and Beaverton doesn't care. I had my same neighbor put up text message from my mother and my view I don't know this person like that of a text message that I sent my mother yelling at her about the abuse he had me indoors and how she traumatized me and she took that normal I don't know how she got it she posted it on her door for everyone to see my trauma and my abuse . I called super 10 again and I was ever full crying inconsolable crying officer called me back and asked me if I'm okay and in between me crying I said no I was going to cry more than cervical I was trying to stick words out of my mouth but I was so emotionally traumatized the officer made me feel like I was a burden and I was just being bothered from and they are up no help they were just let somebody emotionally and mentally abuse you and not care as long as they're not doing something physically harmless I would rather die deal with this Police Department or ask for help over 60% of the officers are a joke . They really need to treat people like people and see damage that's being done whether physical or emotional and be there to stop Behavior like that . Instead you get treated like you are a burden and you're bothersome and their time is precious . Bought the Beaverton Police Department they're assholes they'd rather see you die than help you . The reason I say that was because if I hadn't been working hard on my mental health what happened to me with my neighbor and I called that officer I probably would have killed myself . And then Beaverton would come out and maybe that officer would be like wow I just talked to her and maybe then they'd see how serious the issue was . I have to be dead for them to care or do something . Even had this girl trespass from my door in my building and the office or was like nope can't do nothing I don't care that she touched your door continuous to harass you and exploit your mental health and tell everyone your private business .
