Officials to cut the ribbon on law enforcement training facility named for Deputy Jody Cash

The Governor of Kentucky will join local officials as they cut the ribbon on the Jody Cash Multipurpose Training Facility in Richmond on Monday.

The $28 million facility includes a 50-yeard, 30 lane firing range designed for officers to learn intensive and specialized training—and its name for Deputy Jody Cash, a Calloway County sheriff’s deputy who was killed in the line of duty last year in Marshall County. Cash began his career as a deputy sheriff for the Caldwell County Sheriff’s Office in 1999.

He also spent six years as assistant chief of Murray State University Police as well as eight years as a Kentucky State trooper.

The Governor will join members of the Cash family and the Kentucky law enforcement community for a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new facility at 10:30 central time, at 912 McKinney Skills Drive in Richmond.
