Ocean Springs PD earns four years of reaccreditation

The Ocean Springs Police Department is receiving praise today after earning four years of reaccreditation based on their professional standards.

The Mississippi Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission issued a report on their on-site assessment of the department, stating that ‘professional excellence demonstrated by the department is not only a benefit to the citizens of the community, but also serves as a guide to other law enforcement agencies in the state of Mississippi.”

The on-site assessment team with MSLEAC reviewed OSPD policies and practices, interviewed personnel, and closely examined files kept by the department in order to make its determination of compliance with each standard.
