BILLINGS â Three Yellowstone County Detention Facility officers said the recognition of their hard work keeping inmates and the community safe brought on by National Correctional Officers Week was welcome for a law enforcement department that is often outside the public eye.
âIt feels good because sometimes we are left out, because we are a part of law enforcement. The ones that get recognized most are out on the streets, which they do an amazing job also, but we do a lot here, said Officer Crenshaw, who will have been at the detention facility for two years in August.
