KSP Cadet Class #96 reports for training Sun 9 Jan 2018 The Thin Gray Line: With 56 troopers retiring in 2017, the agency is left with only 835 of authorized strength of 1070. Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) By Lt. Michael Webb FRANKFORT, Ky. (Jan. 8, 2018) - Seventy-five recruits from throughout the Commonwealth and three other states reported to the Kentucky State Police Academy in Frankfort yesterday to begin 24 weeks of training that will determine whether they have what it takes to join "The Thin Gray Line." The first day's activities for Cadet Class #96 included a variety of physical fitness tests such as weight lifting, sit-ups, push-ups, a 300 meter run and a 1-1/2 mile run. During the training, the cadets will complete more than 1,000 hours of classroom and field study that includes subjects such as constitutional law, juvenile and traffic law, use of force, weapons training, defensive tactics, first aid, high speed vehicle pursuit, criminal investigation, computer literacy, hostage negotiations, evidence collection, radio procedures, search and seizure, crash investigation, drug identification, traffic control, crowd control, armed robbery response, land navigation, electronic crimes, sex crimes, hate crimes, domestic violence, bomb threats and hazardous materials. Historically, 35 percent of the cadets do not complete the program. "Fifty-six troopers retired last year," says KSP Commissioner Rick Sanders. "That leaves the agency with 835 troopers as of January 1st which is well below the agency's authorized strength of 1,070. This cadet class will help us replenish our ranks to help serve and protect the citizens of the Commonwealth." Twenty-three of the cadets have bachelor's degrees and eight have associate's degrees. Thirteen have military experience. Seventy-four of the cadets are male and one is female. One is Hispanic/Latino, one is African-American and one is American Indian/Alaskan native. Two of the cadets are from Ohio, two are from Indiana and one is from Virginia. Geographically, the cadets represent 48 counties throughout Kentucky. Six are from London and three are from Louisville. Barbourville, Campbellsville, Mt. Washington, Pikeville and Somerset are represented by two cadets each. The class is tentatively scheduled to graduate on June 22, 2018. Applicants interested in future cadet classes should download the KSP mobile app or visit www.kentuckystatepolice.org, click on the Career Opportunities, Recruitment Home and How to Become a Kentucky State Trooper links.
