Public safety session held by retired deputies

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - A Public Safety Information session was held at Apostolic Deliverance Temple Church.

Retired deputies hosted a Public Safety Information Forum at Apostolic Deliverance Temple Church on Aug. 14.

The organizer, retired Deputy Sheriff of Shelby County Mary Evans, said there’s nothing more impactful about getting up close and personal about domestic violence.

“Doing something is better than doing nothing, there’s nothing greater than knowledge,” said Evans

The event was held in light of increasing youth violence, domestic violence, accidental shootings of children and drugs especially fentanyl plaguing our communities.

Evans also wanted to remind parents to teach their children about gun safety in an effort to prevent anymore accidental shootings of young children this year.
