Jacob Bill
Summary
I began my Law Enforcement Career in 2018 when I was appointed as an State Trooper with the Indiana State Police Department. After a couple of years I left ISP and became employed with the Bourbon Police Department as a Part-Time patrolman and as a Full-Time Deputy Marshal with the Mentone Police Department. While with the Mentone Police Department, along with my regular patrol duties, I was assigned to the Kosciusko County Narcotics Enforcement Team (NET 43) as well as participated in a countywide DUI Taskforce. In addition to these roles, I assisted the Town of Winona Lake as a Reserve Patrolman.
I am currently appointed as a Police Officer for the Manvel Police Department in Manvel, Texas. I am assigned to the MPD Traffic Unit and Drone Unit. I am currently responsible for enforcing Criminal and Traffic Statutes of Texas.
During my career I have received extensive experience & training in proactive policing, drug investigations, and crash investigations.
