Officials cut the ribbon for the new Cache County Childrenâs Justice Center on Tuesday.
The new facility, a renovated home located at 339 E. 800 North in Logan, is around five times larger than the CJCâs previous building. Officials who spoke at the event said the new CJC will serve as a boon for law enforcement, victimâs advocates and the victims of crime.
The event was attended by citizens, local law enforcement, and county officials â all of whom were given a tour of the facility. Terryl Warner, the director of the Cache CJC, publicly thanked the Malouf Foundation, Big Dâs Construction, the Cache County Council, County Executive David Zook and his predecessor Craig Buttars, as well as many others involved in the new buildingâs acquisition and renovation.

Almost a year ago, a pickup truck in Logan Canyon swerved and crashed into a car carrying Frei and three friends on their way back from vacation at Bear Lake, partially paralyzing Frei and injuring the other three. Two now have routine panic attacks, while another says the images from that night are seared in his memory.
