Investigator / Coordinator
Captin Craig Akard serves as the Program Coordinator. In that capacity, he delivers monthly reports to members of the Board of Directors and approves payments for rewards in most cases. This approval is contingent upon following strict guidelines as imposed by the Boards of Directors.
Lieutenant Larry Cochran is the assistant coordinator for our program. He assists with the duties associated with the program's coordinator, in the coordinator's absence, and also assists at many Crime Stoppers' events throughout the year.
Det. Brent Yarbrough and Det. Brian Ball are the workers for the organization and they serve as the Investigators. They call-forward the line to a mobile phone that they carry with them when they are not in the office. After taking the information, they pass it on to the appropriate investigator or supervisor for further disposition.
At various times of the year, they can be seen delivering t-shirts for the Moonlight Walk Against Drugs. Both being highly motivated individuals; they are vital assets to the program. Either investigator can be reached in their office at 581- 3210 or on the Crimestoppers/Drugbusters phone line (355-4636).
