Cpl. Cline and Deputy Davis, along with K9 Hondo, recently visited Bright Beginnings in St. Clair. They had a great time visiting with the kiddos, and Hondo loved demonstrating some of his skills and getting lots of pets!

From August 14th to September 7th, 2026, the Franklin County Sheriff's Office, as well as the Franklin County Traffic Safety Unit, will be participating in a MODOT/MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) sponsored "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" campaign event. This means you will see an increased law enforcement presence within Franklin County on our state and county roadways looking for impaired drivers. Impaired driving continues to be a leading force within Missouri for fatal crashes. In 2025, the number of fatal crashes in Missouri was 909, with some of those being attributed to impaired driving. We want everyone to please drive responsibly and safely.
